Intended Use
The ELM Extension PTA Balloon Dilatation Catheter is indicated for use in Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty of the femoral, iliac, 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 Creagh Medical ELM Balloon Dilatation Catheter is a coaxial catheter with a semi compliant balloon near the distal tip. It is an Over-the-Wire (OTW) PTA device with shaft lengths of 40cm & 75cm. The ELM PTA Balloon Dilatation Catheter is compatible with a 0.035" guide wire. The balloon has two radiopaque markers at either end of the balloon body that aid in the placement of the balloon within the stenosis. These two radiopaque marker bands indicate the dilating section of the balloon and aid in the balloon placement. The marker bands also indicate the nominal length of the balloon. The catheter tip is designed to ease entry into the peripheral arteries and to facilitate the crossing of tight stenosis. The clearance between the inner and outer catheter shaft acts as the passage for the inflation medium for balloon expansion. The proximal end of the catheter has a bifurcated manifold and strain relief that allows for the use of the 0.035" guidewire and the attachment of a balloon inflation device via a standard luer connector. The inflation device is used to inflate and deflate the balloon with a contrast medium. The ELM PTA Balloon Dilatation Catheter is to be provided sterile (via ethylene oxide) and is intended for single use only. The catheter is designed so that a specific balloon diameter can be reached depending on the Balloon size and defined pressure. A compliance chart is provided on the product label which provides the diameter of balloons at given pressures. Each product is packaged with a balloon protector which is positioned over the balloon for its protection prior to use. A re-wrap tool is also provided on the catheter shaft. The modified ELM 0.035" PTA Balloon Dilatation Catheter, hereafter referred to as ELM Extension, introduces 3 additional product codes with reduced Rated Burst Pressure as detailed below in Table 1.

The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical properties and physical characteristics of a balloon catheter, with no mention of AI or ML.

Yes
The document describes the intended use of the ELM Extension PTA Balloon Dilatation Catheter for Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) to treat obstructive lesions in arteries and dialysis fistulae, which is a therapeutic intervention.

No

The device description indicates it is a therapeutic device used for Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) to dilate vessels and treat obstructive lesions, rather than for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device is a physical catheter with a balloon, designed for mechanical dilation procedures. The description details hardware components, materials, and mechanical testing, indicating it is a hardware medical device.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) of blood vessels and treatment of obstructive lesions in dialysis fistulae. This is a therapeutic procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device is a balloon catheter designed to be inserted into blood vessels to dilate them. This is a physical intervention, not a test performed on a sample taken from the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any components or functions related to analyzing biological samples (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide diagnostic information. There is no mention of reagents, assays, or any form of in vitro testing.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device is a therapeutic tool used for a medical procedure.

Summary of Performance Studies

This Traditional 510(k) submission aims to demonstrate substantial equivalence of the ELM Extension PTA Balloon Dilatation Catheter with extended range through comparison with the predicate device – ELM PTA Balloon Dilatation Catheter cleared in K102645. Substantial equivalence is demonstrated for the intended use of the ELM device. Where substantial equivalence is not directly demonstrated from the perspective of technology and performance, design verification testing provides evidence of the safety and effectiveness of the ELM Extension device.

Technological differences between the subject and predicate devices have been evaluated through mechanical tests to provide evidence the ELM Extension Catheter is safe and effective as the ELM PTA Balloon Dilatation Catheter. The ELM Extension is substantially equivalent to the specified predicate device based on comparisons of device functionality. technological characteristics and indications for use. The ELM Extension device design has been verified and validated through the following mechanical tests:

  • Working Length
  • Radiopacity
  • Tortuosity
  • Catheter profile
  • . Guidewire passage
  • . Fatigue Testing
  • Burst / Compliance Testing
  • Tensile
  • Inflation / Deflation
  • Shelf Life Testing
  • . Simulate Use Testing
  • . Sheath Compatibility Testing

This verification and validation testing shows substantial equivalence through compliance of the ELM Extension to standards and specifications which the ELM predicate device was previously verified against. The results were shown to meet the specified acceptance criteria and did not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness, therefore, Elm Extension catheter is substantially equivalent to the ELM PTA Balloon Dilatation Catheter.
