The DENALI® Filter System - Femoral and Jugular/Subclavian Delivery Kits are indicated for use in the prevention of recurrent pulmonary embolism via placement in the vena cava in the following situations:
- Pulmonary thromboembolism when anticoagulants are contraindicated. .
- . Failure of anticoagulant therapy for thromboembolic disease.
- . Emergency treatment following massive pulmonary embolism where anticipated benefits of conventional therapy are reduced.
- . Chronic, recurrent pulmonary embolism where anticoagulant therapy has failed or is contraindicated.
DENALI® Filter may be removed according to the instructions supplied under the section labeled: Optional Procedure for Filter Removal.
The DENALI® Filter consists of twelve Nitinol appendages emanating from a central snareable tip. These twelve appendages (six legs and six arms) form two levels of filtration for emboli: the legs provide the lower level of filtration and the arms provide the upper level of filtration. Four out of the six legs have cranial anchors and the remaining two legs have caudal anchors. In addition, all of the legs have penetration limiters. The anchors have been designed to resist cranial and caudal migration, while allowing the filter to be percutaneously removed. The DENALI® Filter is intended to be used in the inferior vena cava with diameters less than or equal to 28 mm.
The DENALI® Delivery Systems consist of an introducer sheath and dilator, and a preloaded DENALI® Filter in a storage tube with a pusher. The dilator accepts a 0.035" guidewire and allows for an 800 psi maximum pressure contrast power injection. Radiopaque marker bands are on the end of the dilator to aid in measuring the maximum indicated IVC diameter. They are spaced at a distance of 28 mm (outer-to-outer). The 55 cm, 8.4 French I.D. introducer sheath contains a radiopaque marker band at the distal tip and hemostasis valve with a side port. The pusher advances the filter through the introducer sheath to the pre-deployment mark and is then used to fix the filter in place while the filter is unsheathed.
The DENALI® Filter System's acceptance criteria and performance are detailed across various tests, including in-vitro, in-vivo animal studies, and a clinical study.

Performance Testing - In-Vivo Testing
Two GLP compliant animal studies were performed in support of the DENALL® Filter System. one to assess the filter and one to assess the delivery systems.
To assess the fitter, an animal study was performed with the primary objective of the study being to evaluate the retrievability of the DENALI® Filter in an ovine animal model following implantation periods of 4 and 12 weeks. Twelve (12) filter retrievals were evaluated for: 1) ease of removal (as assessed by a clinical evaluator) and 2) cava wall damage as assessed by venography, gross evaluation, and histopathology (in two separate subgroups - immediately post-euthanasia (0 week healing) and after an 8 week healing period). The secondary objectives of this study were to assess caval narrowing/stenosis, caval patency, extravasation, filter strut configuration, filter visibility under fluoroscopy, fracture, intimal irregularities, migration, penetration, perforation, thrombus and tilt.
To assess the delivery systems, an acute animal study in an ovine animal model was performed. The acute study validated the following attributes of 12 Femoral and 12 Jugular/Subclavian DENALI® Filter Systems:
- . Dilator Visibility
- Dilator Marker Band Visibility .
- Introducer Sheath Tip (Jugular) and Introducer Marker Band (Femoral) . Visibility
- Dilator/Introducer Trackability .
- Dilator/Introducer Pushability .
- . Aspiration
- Delivery System Trackability .
- . Delivery System Pushability
- . Ease of Deployment (Deployment Force)
- . Deployment Accuracy
- Filter Centering (Tilt) .
- Arm/Leg Entanglement .

- Pusher Assembly Visibility Under Fluoroscopy .
Based upon the performance assessment, all acceptance criteria were met and the DENALL® Filter System was deemed acceptable by clinical evaluators. Specifically to the retreivability animal study, all 12 filters were successfully removed with an acceptable retrieval force. In addition, based on clinical evaluation and confirmed by the pathologist there was no observed caval occlusion/thrombosis, no definitive IVC penetrations/perforations, no contrast extravasation from the VC after filter removal, no significant filter tilting, and no hemodynamically significant caval stenosis. One death occurred following filter placement which the pathologist and attending veterinarian determined not to be device related.
The delivery systems were assessed by a clinical evaluator and the following delivery system attributes were found to be acceptable: dilator visibility, dilator marker band visibility, introducer sheath tip (Jugular), introducer markerband (Femoral) visibility, dilator/introducer trackability, dilator/introducer pushability, aspiration, delivery system (with Filter) trackability, delivery system (with Filter) pushability, ease of deployment (Deployment Force), deployment accuracy, filter centering (Tilt), arm/leg entanglement, filter visibility under fluoroscopy, snare tip visibility under fluoroscopy and pusher assembly visibility under fluoroscopy.
Performance Testing - Clinical Testing
A single-arm, prospective, multi-center clinical study was conducted to assess the safety of the DENALI® Filter as both a permanent and retrievable device. Clinical Success Placement (CSP) was defined as freedom from subsequent PE, filter embolization, caval occlusion, filter or procedure related death, insertion adverse events, and technical failure of placement. The preestablished performance goal was that the lower bound of the 95% confidence interval for the CSP was greater than 80%. Technical success of placement (TSP) was defined as deployment of the filter such that the physician judged the location to be suitable to provide sufficient mechanical protection against PE. Additionally, the secondary endpoints of recurrent PE, new or worsening DVT. filter migration. filter fracture and tilt were assessed at the six month visit or the one month post-retrieval visit.

Traditional 510/k) DENALI® Filter System - Femoral and Jugular/Subclavian Delivery Kit
One hundred seventy five (175) patients (107 males, 68 females) were enrolled at 20 investigational sites across the United States. The mean age was 56.7 ± 15.8 years (range 18 – 89 years). Eighty six (86) patients had their filter successfully retrieved.
Of the 175 patients who underwent DENAL® Filter placement, 95 had active thromboembolic disease (the presence of DVT or PE at the time of filter placement). Of these 95 patients, 63 had a contraindication to anticoagulation, 7 had a complication related to the use of anticoagulant medication, 8 had a failure of anticoagulation, and 17 had a filter placed without contraindication, complication or failure related to anticoagulant medication. Eighty (80) patients without active thromboembolic disease (neither DVT nor PE at the time of filter placement) were enrolled in the study.
Reasons for filter placement were as follows: Surgery (n=86, 49%), Trauma (n=41, 23%), Hypercoagulopathy (n=33, 19%), Cancer (n=7, 4%), Stroke (n=3, 2%) and Other (n=5, 3%).
Sixty nine (69) patients completed a six month visit. Longer term data was available in 21 patients at 12-month follow up and in one patient at 18-month follow up. The study will continue to follow all patients to 24 month post retrieval, whichever comes first. Three (3) patients withdrew their consent, 3 were lost to follow up and 7 died from pre-existing conditions. An independent Clinical Events Committee (CEC) determined that no patient deaths were attributed to the filter device, or implant or retrieval procedures. This clinical experience will be updated in the IFU once the study is complete.

2 69 patients completed the 6-month visit, 9 patients were retrieved in the 6-month visit window (6-months plus or minus 30 days)
1 patient was retrieved in the 12-month visit window (12-months plus or minus 30 days)
477 patients completed the 30 Day Post-Retrieval Visit, 9 of which occurred during the six month visit window. 68 patients completing the one month post-retrieval visit are reported in the table above to prevent assessment at the 6-month visit and one month post-retrieval visit.
TSP for the DENALI® Filter was 100%. CSP for the DENALI® Filter was 96.1% and the lower bound of the 95% confidence interval was 91.2%. It was concluded that the performance goal was successfully met. Mean placement procedure time was 17.5 minutes.
There were no findings of caval occlusion, filter fracture, cranial migration, filter tilt at placement, or filter tilt at retrieval. There were two (2) cases of symptomatic PE; neither of which caused patient death. There were five (5) cases of asymptomatic penetration; none of which had clinical sequelae. Three (3) cases of penetration were noted at implant and two (2) cases of penetration were noted at retrieval. Twelve (12) patients reported thirteen (13) cases of new or worsening DVT. There were ten (10) cases of new DVT and three (3) cases of worsening DVT. All 10 new DVTs reported were in those patients that had active disease at the time of implant, were considered to be hypercoagulable, or those that had orthopedic procedures on their lower extremities. All site-reported adverse events were adjudicated by the CEC.

388 patients had a retrieval visit with 86 successful retrievals
DENALI® Filter retrieval was attempted in 88 patients and successful in 86 patients (97.7%). In the two (2) unsuccessful retrieval cases, the snare was unable to engage the filter retrieval hook due to anatomical curvature. Mean filter indwell time was 136.2 ± 90.6 days (median 120.0 days, range 5 – 454 days). The right internal jugular vein was used in all retrieval procedures and mean procedure time was 21.9 minutes.
Venacavograms taken before and after the retrieval procedures of the IVC implant site revealed abnormalities that the CEC determined to be related to the device in two patients. One patient had minimal, self limited contrast extravasation post retrieval and another patient experienced intimal injury and caval narrowing of the IVC post retrieval. No clinical sequelae were reported for either patient.
Seventy seven (77) of the 86 patients who had their filter retrieved completed one month followup, one (1) subject was lost to follow-up, and eight (8) were pending. No instances of recurrent PE or new or worsening DVT were reported for any patient completing the one month postretrieval visit.
