Intended Use
Used for retrograde injection during Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (E.S.W.L.) and leaving an indwelling ureteral stent post-E.S.W.L.
Device Description
The Kwart Retro-Inject™ Stent Set is intended to be marketed as a set with multiple components. The set is comprised of a double pigtail ureteral stent with tether, inserter, release sleeve, wire guide, and an adapter. The stent is available as a specified length or a multi-length stent with or without hydrophilic coating. The specified lengths are 22, 24, 26, and 28 centimeters with outer diameters of 4.7, 6, and 7 French. The multi-length stent offers a range of 22-32 centimeters with outer diameters of 4.7, 6, 7, and 8.2 French. Both specified and multi-length stents have drainage holes along the kidney loop, and continuing along the stent body extending from the kidney. However, the bladder pigtail and 15 centimeters of the stent body extending from the bladder loop do not have drainage holes. The bladder pigtail has a polyethylene terephthalate tether attached. In addition, both stent types are constructed of radiopaque polyurethane elastomer and have radiopaque ink marks to aid in stent placement. The stents accept either a 0.035 or a 0.038 inch wire guide. The inserter is made of radiopaque polyurethane and has radiopaque ink markers. The inserter is available in outer diameters of 4.5, 5, or 6 French with a 70 centimeter working length. The inserter accepts a 0.038 inch wire guide. A female luer lock to connector cap adapter may be attached on the inserter to provide injection. The release sleeve is made of radiopaque plasticized polyvinylchloride. The release sleeve has an 8 or 10 French outer diameter and a 38 centimeter working length. The set will be supplied sterile and is intended for one-time use. The set is packaged in a peelopen pouch with a three-year shelf-life.

No
The description focuses on the physical components, materials, and performance characteristics of a ureteral stent set. There is no mention of any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI or ML. The performance studies are related to material properties and physical function, not algorithmic performance.

No
The device is used for retrograde injection during Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (E.S.W.L.) and leaving an indwelling ureteral stent post-E.S.W.L.. It is a delivery and retention device, rather than a device that provides therapy.

No

The device is primarily used for therapeutic purposes (retrograde injection and ureteral stenting) and does not inherently provide diagnostic information. While "fluoroscopic evaluation" is mentioned for placement, the device itself is not a diagnostic tool.

No

The device description clearly outlines multiple physical components made of materials like polyurethane and polyvinylchloride, and the performance studies focus on physical properties like retention strength, frictional force, radiopacity, and flow rate. There is no mention of software as a component or function of the 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 retrograde injection during Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (E.S.W.L.) and leaving an indwelling ureteral stent. This is a therapeutic and procedural use within the body, not for examining specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or compatibility testing.
  • Device Description: The device is a physical implantable stent and associated insertion tools. It does not involve reagents, calibrators, control materials, or other components typically associated with IVDs.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information.

The device is a medical device used in a surgical/procedural setting for treatment and drainage, not for in vitro diagnostic purposes.

have radiopaque ink marks to aid in stent placement. The stents accept either a 0.035 or a 0.038 inch wire guide.

The inserter is made of radiopaque polyurethane and has radiopaque ink markers. The inserter is available in outer diameters of 4.5, 5, or 6 French with a 70 centimeter working length. The inserter accepts a 0.038 inch wire guide. A female luer lock to connector cap adapter may be attached on the inserter to provide injection. The release sleeve is made of radiopaque plasticized polyvinylchloride. The release sleeve has an 8 or 10 French outer diameter and a 38 centimeter working length.

The set will be supplied sterile and is intended for one-time use. The set is packaged in a peelopen pouch with a three-year shelf-life.

Indications for Use:

The device is used for retrograde injection during Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (E.S.W.L.) and leaving an indwelling ureteral stent post- E.S.W.L.

Comparison to Predicate Device:

The proposed device has similar indications for use, methods of operation, and fundamental technological characteristics as the predicate device. Differences between the proposed device and the predicate devices include indwell time, design specifications, and materials. Characteristics of the proposed device that differ from the predicate devices are supported by testing.

Performance Data:

The following testing was performed in order to demonstrate that the proposed Kwart Retro-Inject™ Stent Set met applicable design and performance requirements.

  • Retention Strength and Break Strength Retention strength testing shows the curl 트 retention during proper clinical use should retain the Kwart Retro-Inject™ Stents within the intended anatomy. Testing also shows the curl retention strength must allow for removal of the Kwart Retro-Inject™ Stents from the intended anatomy. Break strength testing evaluates the tensile forces to break the curl and shaft of the Kwart Retro-Inject™ Stents. Additional retention strength and break strength testing was conducted following a 30-day artificial urine soak and after accelerated aging to the real-time equivalent of three years both with and without a 30-day urine soak. All predetermined acceptance criteria were met.
  • Dynamic Frictional Force Testing characterized the dynamic frictional force acting on ■ the outer surface of the Kwart Retro-Inject" Stents. The evaluation included the dynamic

frictional force testing of both the hydrophilically coated stents and the uncoated stents at time zero and after accelerated aging to the real-time equivalent of three years.

  • . Radiopacity- Testing assessed the radiopacity of the Kwart Retro-Inject Stent" by subjecting it to a comparative fluoroscopic evaluation. Testing was conducted on the stents at time zero.
  • Gravity Flow Rate - Testing characterized the gravity flow rate of the Kwart Retro-Inject™ Stents. The evaluation was conducted on the stents at time zero.
  • 트 Magnetic Resonance (MR) – Testing shows that the proposed device is MR conditional based on defined, tested conditions. All predetermined acceptance criteria were met.
  • 트 Biocompatibility - Testing shows that the proposed device conforms with the biocompatibility requirements based on its intended use. All predetermined acceptance criteria were met.

Conclusion:

The results of these tests provide reasonable assurance that the Kwart Retro-Inject™ Stent Set will perform as intended. The proposed device does not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness as compared to the predicate devices.
