Intended Use
The 0.018" Arrow® GPSCath™ Balloon Dilatation Catheter (150 cm) is indicated for Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) in the peripheral vasculature, including iliac, femoral, popliteal, infra-popliteal and renal arteries, and for the treatment of obstructive lesions of native or synthetic arteriovenous dialysis fistulae. This catheter is not for use in coronary arteries.
Device Description
The .018" Arrow GPSCath Balloon Dilatation Catheter (150 cm) is an 0.018" guidewire compatible PTA balloon catheter consisting of a semi-compliant angioplasty balloon fixed at the distal tip and a novel valve technology that allows iniection of fluids through the inflation lumen without removal of the quidewire. Two radiopaque markers identify the balloon working length and two radiopaque markers identify the valve to aid in angiographic placement. The proximal portion of the catheter includes an inflation female luer lock hub on the side of the handle and a quidewire female luer lock hub in the proximal end of the handle. Balloon inflation function is achieved using an angioplasty balloon mounted to the catheter shaft like a typical PTA balloon catheter. The fluid injection function is achieved through a valve at the proximal end of the balloon that is controlled through the device handle.
More Information

No
The summary describes a mechanical balloon catheter and its functional testing, with no mention of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is indicated for Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) to treat obstructive lesions, which is a therapeutic intervention.

No

This device is a balloon dilatation catheter used for angioplasty, a therapeutic procedure to open narrowed or obstructed blood vessels, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical catheter with a balloon, guidewire compatibility, radiopaque markers, and luer lock hubs, indicating it is a hardware device. The performance studies also focus on physical and functional testing of the hardware components.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states that this is a balloon dilatation catheter used for Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) in the peripheral vasculature. This is a procedure performed inside the body to open narrowed or blocked blood vessels.
  • No Mention of Specimen Testing: The document does not mention any testing of biological specimens or analysis of samples taken from the patient.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the 0.018" Arrow® GPSCath™ Balloon Dilatation Catheter is an invasive medical device used for therapeutic purposes within the body, not an IVD.

In vitro preclinical tests were performed to verify and validate the substantial equivalence of the 0.018" Arrow GPSCath Balloon Dilatation Catheter (150 cm) to the predicate device. Functional testing of the .018" Arrow GPSCath Balloon Dilatation Catheter (150 cm) was performed in accordance with the FDA's Guidance for PTCA Catheters and included passing data for the following tests conducted per documented procedures:

  • Visual Testing was performed to ensure that the product has not been damaged through sterilization cycle and packing testing and that the handle markings are legible.
  • Dimensional Testing was performed to ensure that the product meets all dimensional performance attributes post the validated EtO sterilization cycle exposure.
  • Performance Testing was conducted to ensure that the product passes all functional destructive testing post the validated EtO sterilization cycle exposure.
  • Simulated Use Testing was performed in an anatomically relevant model to ensure that the product performs and meets functional attributes.

Biocompatibility testing of the .018" Arrow GPSCath Balloon Dilatation Catheter (150 cm) was completed per the requirements of ISO 10993-1, Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices.

The sterilization validation performed demonstrated that the device is able to be EtO sterilized to achieve a sterility assurance level (SAL) of 1 x 10^6.

D. Indication for Use:

The .018" Arrow® GPSCath™ Balloon Dilatation Catheter (150 cm) is indicated for Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) in the peripheral vasculature, including iliac, femoral, popliteal, infra-popliteal and renal arteries, and for the treatment of obstructive lesions of native or synthetic arteriovenous dialysis fistulae. This catheter is not for use in coronary arteries.

E. Device Description:

The .018" Arrow GPSCath Balloon Dilatation Catheter (150 cm) is an 0.018" guidewire compatible PTA balloon catheter consisting of a semi-compliant angioplasty balloon fixed at the distal tip and a novel valve technology that allows iniection of fluids through the inflation lumen without removal of the quidewire. Two radiopaque markers identify the balloon working length and two radiopaque markers identify the valve to aid in angiographic placement. The proximal portion of the catheter includes an inflation female luer lock hub on the side of the handle and a quidewire female luer lock hub in the proximal end of the handle.

Balloon inflation function is achieved using an angioplasty balloon mounted to the catheter shaft like a typical PTA balloon catheter. The fluid injection function is achieved through a valve at the proximal end of the balloon that is controlled through the device handle.

F. Predicate Device(s) Reference:

The .018" Arrow GPSCath Balloon Dilatation Catheter (150 cm) was shown to be substantially equivalent in intended use, principle of operation, and technological characteristics to the previously cleared device: .014" Arrow® GPSCath™ Balloon Dilatation Catheter (150 cm), (K140351 with a subsequent labeling change per K142300).

G. Performance Data:

In vitro preclinical tests were performed to verify and validate the substantial equivalence of the 0.018" Arrow GPSCath Balloon Dilatation Catheter (150 cm) to the predicate device. Functional testing of the .018" Arrow GPSCath Balloon Dilatation Catheter (150 cm) was performed in accordance with the FDA's Guidance for PTCA Catheters and included passing data for the following tests conducted per documented procedures:

  • . Visual Testing was performed to ensure that the product has not been damaged through sterilization cycle and packing testing and that the handle markings are legible.
  • Dimensional Testing was performed to ensure that the product meets all ●

dimensional performance attributes post the validated EtO sterilization cycle exposure.

  • . Performance Testing was conducted to ensure that the product passes all functional destructive testing post the validated EtO sterilization cycle exposure.
  • Simulated Use Testing was performed in an anatomically relevant model . to ensure that the product performs and meets functional attributes.

The proposed .018" Arrow GPSCath Balloon Dilatation Catheter (150 cm) and the predicate .014" Arrow GPSCath Balloon Dilatation Catheter (150 cm) are both balloon angioplasty catheters with equivalent operating principles and intended use. Due to similarities in materials and shared components of the proposed device to the predicate device, certain tests were not repeated. Packaging testing performed to ensure that the product packaging can with stand the effects of transit and environmental conditions and still remain intact and sterile were not repeated since the predicate and proposed devices share identical packaging components.

Biocompatibility testing of the .018" Arrow GPSCath Balloon Dilatation Catheter (150 cm) was completed per the requirements of ISO 10993-1, Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices.

The .018" Arrow GPSCath Balloon Dilatation Catheter (150 cm) is a single use device that is supplied sterile. The sterilization performed on the predicate device, the .014" Arrow GPSCath Balloon Dilatation Catheter (150 cm) is applicable to the proposed device, the .018" Arrow GPSCath Balloon Dilatation Catheter (150 cm) due the similarity in design, materials, and construction. The sterilization validation performed demonstrated that the device is able to be EtO sterilized to achieve a sterility assurance level (SAL) of 1 x 106 See Section 11.0 of this submission for additional detail.

H. Basis for Determination of Substantial Equivalence:

Upon reviewing the safety and efficacy information provided in this submission and comparing intended use, principle of operation, and overall technological characteristics, the .018" Arrow GPSCath Balloon Dilatation Catheter (150 cm) is determined to be substantially equivalent to an existing legally marketed device.
