Device Description
The Centros and CentrosFLO Long-Term Hemodialysis Catheters are dual lumen, 15FR catheters available in a straight configuration with multiple lengths. The catheter comes with a stiffening stylet that can be used for over-the-wire placement. The stiffening stylet has a female Luer which is over-molded on a nylon shaft with a tapered distal tip. Distal to the female Luer is a rotating male locking collar which can be used to attach the stylet to the catheter. The catheter lumens are D-shaped and made from radiopaque Carbothane. The distal end design is a fixed length pre-formed split-tip, with (CentrosFLO) or without (Centros) side-holes. The distal venous lumen extends past the arterial lumen, and includes a quide wire slit for insertion by the optional over-the-wire placement technique. The proximal device contains a fixed polyester cuff, an integrated bifurcation, suture wing, and extension legs with color coded occlusion clamps and Luer connectors (red and blue for the arterial and venous lumens respectively). The lumen priming volumes are printed on ID tags within the occlusion clamps. The trade name and cuff-to-tip length are printed on the catheter bifurcation. The procedure kits include the necessary accessories to correctly insert the catheter.

(a)
Identification. A blood access device and accessories is a device intended to provide access to a patient's blood for hemodialysis or other chronic uses. When used in hemodialysis, it is part of an artificial kidney system for the treatment of patients with renal failure or toxemic conditions and provides access to a patient's blood for hemodialysis. The device includes implanted blood access devices, nonimplanted blood access devices, and accessories for both the implanted and nonimplanted blood access devices.(1) The implanted blood access device is a prescription device and consists of various flexible or rigid tubes, such as catheters, or cannulae, which are surgically implanted in appropriate blood vessels, may come through the skin, and are intended to remain in the body for 30 days or more. This generic type of device includes various catheters, shunts, and connectors specifically designed to provide access to blood. Examples include single and double lumen catheters with cuff(s), fully subcutaneous port-catheter systems, and A-V shunt cannulae (with vessel tips). The implanted blood access device may also contain coatings or additives which may provide additional functionality to the device.
(2) The nonimplanted blood access device consists of various flexible or rigid tubes, such as catheters, cannulae or hollow needles, which are inserted into appropriate blood vessels or a vascular graft prosthesis (§§ 870.3450 and 870.3460), and are intended to remain in the body for less than 30 days. This generic type of device includes fistula needles, the single needle dialysis set (coaxial flow needle), and the single needle dialysis set (alternating flow needle).
