Intended Use

The YOGA Microcatheter is intended for use in peripheral, coronary, and neuro vasculature for the intravascular introduction of interventional/diagnostic devices.

Device Description

The YOGA Microcatheter is a variable stiffness, single lumen catheter designed to access small, tortuous vasculature. The catheter shaft is composed of a variable pitch stainless steel braid with a PTFE inner liner to facilitate movement of guide wires and other devices. The exterior of the catheter shaft is covered with a polymer material, which encapsulates the stainless steel braid construction. The distal end of the catheter has a radiopaque marker band and has a hydrophilic coating to provide lubricity for navigation of vessels. The proximal end of the catheter has a hub and an ID band is placed at the distal end of the hub over a strain relief. A steam shaping mandrel is provided in the package. The two new YOGA Microcatheters are provided in back up (XB) and extra backup (XXB) configurations, i.e. a stiffer distal end to provide additional support.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is for a 510(k) premarket notification for a medical device called the "YOGA Microcatheter". This document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a previously cleared predicate device, rather than proving the device meets specific performance acceptance criteria through the kind of study described in the prompt.

Therefore, the document does not contain the detailed information necessary to answer the prompt's questions. The prompt is designed to elicit information about a study that assesses AI/algorithm performance (e.g., accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, or improvement in human reader performance), which typically involves a test set, ground truth experts, and statistical analysis against predefined acceptance criteria. This 510(k) submission, however, details the physical and functional characteristics of a medical catheter and demonstrates its similarity to a previously approved device through bench testing, not a diagnostic study involving AI or image analysis.

Here's why the information isn't present:

  • Device Type: The YOGA Microcatheter is a physical medical device (a catheter), not a software algorithm, diagnostic imaging tool, or AI system. Its performance is evaluated through physical and functional characteristics (e.g., stiffness, trackability, biocompatibility, sterilization) rather than diagnostic accuracy metrics.
  • Regulatory Pathway: A 510(k) submission seeks to establish "substantial equivalence" to a predicate device. This often involves demonstrating similar technological characteristics and performance through bench testing, not necessarily conducting large-scale clinical trials or diagnostic accuracy studies like those performed for AI/CAD devices.
  • Nature of Testing: The "Performance Data" section describes "Bench Test Summary" including Linear Stiffness, Lateral Stiffness, and Track Testing. These are engineering tests, not studies involving human readers, ground truth consensus for imaging data, or AI performance metrics.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested table or answer the specific questions about acceptance criteria for an AI/algorithm, sample sizes for test/training sets, expert qualifications, or MRMC studies, as this information is not present in the provided 510(k) document.

Dear Ms. Yoon Hee Beatty:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you; however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device

{1}------------------------------------------------

related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Division of Industry and Consumer Education at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 796-7100 or at its Internet address

http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/ResourcesforYou/Industry/default.htm. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to

Performance Testing - Animal

Performance Data, Continued

VII.

No in vivo testing was required as appropriate verification and validation of the catheter and packaging modifications were achieved based on the similarities of the proposed device to the predicate device, and from results of bench testing.

Performance Testing - Clinical

No clinical studies were required as appropriate verification and validation of the catheter and packaging modifications were achieved based on the similarities of the proposed device to the predicate device, and from results of bench testing.

Sterilization

The YOGA Microcatheter is sterilized using a validated Ethylene Oxide sterilization process to ensure sterility assurance level (SAL) of 106 in accordance with ISO 11135-1.

Shelf-Life Testing

The YOGA Microcatheter will have a shelf life of 3 years based on the shelf life of currently cleared products.

Biocompatibility Testing

Based on the same materials used to manufacture the YOGA Microcatheters (K162563), it was determined that the biocompatibility data from the predicate device can be leveraged. The tests were previously completed in accordance with International Standard ISO 10993-1 "Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices -Part 1: Evaluation of Testing within a Risk Management Process", FDA Bluebook Memorandum G95-1, and FDA's Guidance Document entitled "Use of International Standard ISO 10993, Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices Part 1: Evaluation and Testing" issued April 23, 2013.

Conclusion

Based upon the intended use, design, materials, function, side-by-side in-vitro testing and packaging testing it is concluded that the subject device, YOGA Microcatheter, is substantially equivalent to the predicate device YOGA Microcatheter cleared under 510(k) K162563. Therefore, the modified YOGA Microcatheter does not raise different issues of safety and effectiveness.
