Intended Use
The Turbo-Elite devices are indicated for use in the treatment, including atherectomy, of infrainguinal stenoses and occlusions. The 0.014" and 0.018" Over-the-Wire (OTW) Turbo-Elite laser catheters are also indicated for use as an accessory to the use of the Turbo-Tandem System in the treatment of femoropopliteal artery in-stent restenosis (ISR) in bare nitinol stents, when used in conjunction with Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA).
Device Description
Spectranetics Turbo-Elite Laser Ablation Catheters are percutaneous intravascular devices constructed of multiple optical fibers arranged around a guidewire lumen for Over-the-Wire (OTW) configurations, and bundled together for Rapid-Exchange (Rx) versions. Turbo Elite Laser Ablation Catheters are available in an Over the Wire (OTW) configuration and a Rapid Exchange (RX) configuration. The Turbo-Elite laser catheters in the OTW configuration are available in six different catheter tip sizes (0.9mm, 1.4mm, 1.7mm, 2.0mm, 2.3mm, and 2.5mm) and three different guide-wire compatibilities (0.014″, 0.018″, and 0.035"). New indication clearance is only being requested for the OTW configurations of Turbo-Elite catheters compatible with 0.014" and 0.018" guidewires. The multifiber laser catheters transmit ultraviolet energy from the Spectranetics CVX-300® Excimer Laser System to an obstruction in the patient's artery. The ultraviolet energy is delivered to the laser catheter to photoablate fibrous, calcific, and atheromatous lesions, thus recanalizing diseased vessels. Photoablation is the process by which energy photons cause molecular bond disruption at the cellular level without thermal damage to surrounding tissue.
More Information

No
The summary describes a laser ablation catheter and its mechanism of action (photoablation). There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any data-driven decision-making components. The performance studies focus on clinical outcomes related to stenosis reduction and adverse events, not on the performance of an AI/ML algorithm.

Yes.
The device is indicated for use in the treatment of infrainguinal stenoses and occlusions, and specifically photoablates lesions to recanalize diseased vessels, which are therapeutic actions.

No

Explanation: The device is indicated for treatment (atherectomy) of infrainguinal stenoses and occlusions, not for diagnosis. It uses laser ablation to remove lesions, which is a therapeutic function.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical medical device (catheters with optical fibers) that transmits energy from a laser system to perform a physical procedure (photoablation). It is not solely software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The Turbo-Elite devices are used directly within the patient's arteries to treat blockages (stenoses and occlusions) through a process called photoablation. They are surgical/interventional devices, not devices that analyze samples outside the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes treatment of infrainguinal stenoses and occlusions, and treatment of in-stent restenosis. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test.
  • Device Description: The description details a catheter with optical fibers that delivers laser energy to the obstruction within the artery. This is consistent with an interventional device.

The information provided describes a device used for a therapeutic procedure within the body, not for analyzing samples taken from the body.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The Atherectomy By Laser Ablation with Turbo-Elite (ABLATE) clinical study was performed to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the Turbo-Elite in the treatment of patients with infrainguinal stenosis. The primary safety endpoint is percent freedom from major adverse events (MAE) through day 30 follow-up, which included all-cause death, major amputation in the target limb, or target lesion revascularizations (TLR). The primary effectiveness endpoint was a mean reduction in percent stenosis at the time of the procedure by Angiographic Core Lab assessment. Both primary safety and effectiveness hypotheses were met. Additional analyses were conducted to prove lesions had ≤50% residual stenosis post Turbo-Elite treatment and longterm freedom from TLR through 180-days. Both of these analyses were successful, with an average reduction of 42%.

Key Metrics (Sensitivity, Specificity, PPV, NPV, etc.)

Primary safety endpoint: percent freedom from major adverse events (MAE) through day 30 follow-up.
Primary effectiveness endpoint: mean reduction in percent stenosis at the time of the procedure by Angiographic Core Lab assessment.
Additional analyses: ≤50% residual stenosis post Turbo-Elite treatment and longterm freedom from TLR through 180-days.

Device Description

Spectranetics Turbo-Elite Laser Ablation Catheters are percutaneous intravascular devices constructed of multiple optical fibers arranged around a guidewire lumen for Over-the-Wire (OTW) configurations, and bundled together for Rapid-Exchange (Rx) versions. Turbo Elite Laser Ablation Catheters are available in an Over the Wire (OTW) configuration and a Rapid Exchange (RX) configuration. The Turbo-Elite laser catheters in the OTW configuration are available in six different catheter tip sizes (0.9mm, 1.4mm, 1.7mm, 2.0mm, 2.3mm, and 2.5mm) and three different guide-wire compatibilities (0.014″, 0.018″, and 0.035"). New indication clearance is only being requested for the OTW configurations of Turbo-Elite catheters compatible with 0.014" and 0.018" guidewires.

The multifiber laser catheters transmit ultraviolet energy from the Spectranetics CVX-300® Excimer Laser System to an obstruction in the patient's artery. The ultraviolet energy is delivered to the laser catheter to photoablate fibrous, calcific, and atheromatous lesions, thus recanalizing diseased vessels. Photoablation is the process by which energy photons cause molecular bond disruption at the cellular level without thermal damage to surrounding tissue.
