Intended Use
The Solitaire™ Platinum Revascularization Device is intended to restore blood flow by removing thrombus from a large intracranial vessel in patients experiencing ischemic stroke within 8 hours of symptom onset. Patients who are ineligible for intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (IV t-PA) or who fail IV t-PA therapy are candidates for treatment.
Device Description
The subject 4-20-05 and 6-24-06 Solitaire™ Platinum Revascularization Devices are designed to restore blood flow in patients experiencing ischemic stroke due to large intracranial vessel occlusion. The device is designed for use in the neurovasculature such as the internal carotid artery. M1 and M2 segments of the middle cerebral artery, basilar, and the vertebral arteries.
More Information

No
The summary describes a mechanical revascularization device and does not mention any software, image processing, or AI/ML capabilities.

Yes
The device is intended to restore blood flow by removing thrombus in patients experiencing ischemic stroke, which directly treats a medical condition.

No

The device is described as a revascularization device intended to restore blood flow by removing thrombus, which is a therapeutic function rather than a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly indicates it is a physical device ("Solitaire™ Platinum Revascularization Devices are designed to restore blood flow..."). The performance studies also describe bench testing on physical properties like force and durability.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The Solitaire™ Platinum Revascularization Device is a physical device designed to be inserted into the body to mechanically remove a thrombus (blood clot) from a blood vessel. It directly interacts with the patient's anatomy.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to restore blood flow by removing a thrombus, which is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on a specimen outside the body.

The description clearly indicates this is an interventional device used within the patient's circulatory system.

Summary of Performance Studies

The following performance testing was performed to support the subject 4-20-05 and 6-24-06 Solitaire™ Platinum Revascularization Devices: Delivery Force Testing Re-Sheathing Force Testing Multiple Re-Sheathing Durability Body Marker Tensile Body Marker Radiopacity (in-process) Proximal Marker Band to Distal Marker Band (in-process) Af Temperature (in-process) Radial Force (in-process).

The following performance testing was leveraged from the predicate device: Total System Length Kink Resistance Distal Finger Marker Coil and Push-wire Tensile Clot Retrieval and Device Recovery Durability Torque Response Torque Strength Radiopacity (Fluoroscopic Visualization Distal Finger Marker Coil) Fluorosafe Marker Location.

Biocompatibility Particulate testing was performed.

Non-clinical bench testing confirmed that the portfolio expansion of the subject 4-20-05 and 6-24-06 Solitaire™ Platinum Revascularization Devices do not introduce new risks or increase existing risks.

Conclusion: The subject 4-20-05 and 6-24-06 Solitaire™ Platinum Revascularization Devices (K161879) are substantially equivalent to the predicate Solitaire™ Platinum Revascularization Device (K153071) based on non-clinical bench testing, similarities in design, principles of operation, and indications for use.

Sterilization and Shelf Life: The subject 4-20-05 and 6-24-06 Solitaire™ Platinum Revascularization Devices are sterilized using the identical validated, Ethylene Oxide (EO) sterilization cycle as the predicate Solitaire™ Platinum Revascularization Device. The materials of construction, design, manufacturing process, sterilization load configuration and packaging process for this portfolio expansion of the subject 4-20-05 and 6-24-06 Solitaire™ Platinum Revascularization Devices are equivalent to the predicate Solitaire™ Platinum Revascularization Device. The packaging of the subject 4-20-05 and 6-24-06 Solitaire™ Platinum Revascularization Devices remains functional and maintain sterility for up to two (2) years. Therefore, no additional sterilization or shelf life validation testing is required for the subject 4-20-05 and 6-24-06 Solitaire™ Platinum Revascularization Devices.

Biocompatibility: The subject 4-20-05 and 6-24-06 Solitaire™ Platinum Revascularization Devices do not introduce any new materials into the finished device or the manufacturing process. The material of construction for the subject 4-20-05 and 6-24-06 Solitaire™ Platinum Revascularization Devices are identical to the predicate Solitaire™ Platinum Revascularization Device. Biocompatibility was leveraged from the predicate Solitaire™ Platinum Revascularization Device in support of the subject 4-20-05 and 6-24-06 Solitaire™ Platinum Revascularization Devices. Tests include: Cytotoxicity (L929 MTT Cytotoxicity, ISO 10993-5), Sensitization (Guinea Pig Maximization Sensitization, ISO 10993-10), Irritation (Intracutaneous Irritation Test, ISO 10993-10), Acute Systemic Toxicity (Acute Systemic Injection Test, Materials Mediated Rabbit Pyrogen, ISO 10993-11), Hemo-compatibility (Hemolysis, Partial Thromboplastin Time, Platelet and Leukocyte Count, Complement Activation C3a and SC5b-9 Assay, Thrombosis, ISO 10993-4), Genotoxicity (Bacterial Mutagenicity Test, In-vitro Mouse Lymphoma Assay, In-vivo Mouse Micronucleus Assay, ISO 10993-3). All tests met acceptance criteria and concluded substantial equivalence to the predicate device.

Bench Testing:

  • Delivery Force: Peak delivery force was measured through a representative tortuous anatomical model. Stent must be below delivery force specification. Met acceptance criteria.
  • Re-sheathing Force: Retrieval force was measured through a representative tortuous anatomical model. Stent must be below re-sheathing force specification. Met acceptance criteria.
  • Multiple Re-sheathing Durability: Samples were evaluated on their ability to withstand delivery and withdrawal forces in a representative tortuous model beyond the recommended number of passes and re-sheathings allowed per the Instructions for Use (IFU). The subject 4-20-05 and 6-24-06 devices must reliably deploy and resheath up to four (4) times. Met acceptance criteria, showed no irregularities, breaks, kinks, body marker migration, glue separations, or other observed defects.
  • Body Marker Tensile: Body Marker tensile strength testing is performed to verify the strength of the laser weld of the Platinum/Iridium markercoil to the Nitinol distal finger of the device. Body marker should be greater than or equal to existing tensile strength specification. Met acceptance criteria.
  • Body Marker Radiopacity: Verification analysis of body markers. The radiopaque body markers must be visible using standard catheter laboratory equipment. Met acceptance criteria.
  • Proximal Marker to Distal Marker: The length of the laser cut and electro-polished stents are measured 100% in process. Length of stent must meet all inspection criteria. Met acceptance criteria.
  • Af Temperature: In-process 100% tracking of heat set parameters used to set final Af. Temperature should be less than or equal to existing A f temperature specification. Met acceptance criteria.
  • Radial Force: The radial force was measured 100% in-process. Stent must be within existing radial force specification. Met acceptance criteria.

Animal Performance Data: Not performed as the device does not change the indications for use or the fundamental scientific technology of the predicate device.

Clinical Performance Testing: No additional clinical study was performed as the device does not change the indications for use or the fundamental scientific technology of the predicate device and is substantially equivalent.
