Device Description
The Indigo Aspiration System ("Indigo System") is intended for the removal of fresh, soft emboli and thrombi from vessels of the peripheral and venous systems using the Indigo Aspiration Catheter, Indigo Separator, Indigo Aspiration Tubing, and Penumbra Aspiration Pump. The Indigo System was most recently cleared under K180105. The Indigo System is designed to remove thrombus from the vasculature using continuous aspiration. The Aspiration Catheter targets aspiration from the Aspiration Pump directly to the thrombus. The Separator may be used to clear the lumen of the Aspiration Catheter should it become blocked with thrombus. The use of the Separator may not be necessary when using an Aspiration Catheter with an I.D. of 0.054in or larger. The Aspiration Catheter is introduced through a guide catheter or long femoral sheath and into the site of the primary occlusion. The Aspiration Catheter is used with the Aspiration Pump to aspirate thrombus from an occluded vessel. As needed, a Separator may be deployed from the Aspiration Catheter to assist with thrombus removal. The Separator is advanced and retracted through the Aspiration Catheter at the proximal margin of the primary occlusion to facilitate clearing of the thrombus from the Aspiration Catheter tip. For the aspiration source, the Aspiration Catheter is used in conjunction with the Aspiration Pump, which is connected using the Aspiration Tubing and Canister. The Aspiration Catheter may be provided with a steam shaping mandrel and rotating hemostasis valve, and a peelable sheath. The Separator is provided with an introducer and torque device. The Aspiration Catheters and Separators are visible under fluoroscopy. The Indigo Aspiration Tubing connects the Penumbra Aspiration Pump Canister to the Indigo Aspiration Catheter within the sterile field, providing a means for introducing vacuum during procedures. The Aspiration Tubing has a flow switch that allows the physician to start and stop the flow of aspiration. The Aspiration Tubing is available in three inner diameters: 0.071 in [1.80mm] for IST1, 0.088 in [2.24mm] for IST2, and 0.110 in [2.79mm] for IST3 and IST4. The Aspiration Tubing is designed and composed of materials which are commonly used in interventional devices.
More Information

No
The description focuses on the mechanical components and function of the aspiration system (catheters, separators, tubing, pump) and does not mention any computational or algorithmic processing, particularly related to AI or ML. The testing described is bench-top and physical property evaluation, not performance evaluation of an AI/ML algorithm.

Yes
The device is indicated for the "removal of fresh, soft emboli and thrombi from vessels of the peripheral and venous systems," which directly addresses a medical condition (emboli and thrombi) by removing them, thus providing a therapeutic effect.

No

Explanation: The device is indicated for the removal of emboli and thrombi (treatment), not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description clearly outlines a system composed of physical components including catheters, separators, tubing, and a pump. The testing described focuses on the physical and mechanical properties of these hardware components. There is no mention of software as a component of the system.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for the "removal of fresh, soft emboli and thrombi from vessels of the peripheral and venous systems." This is a therapeutic intervention performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The description details a system of catheters, tubing, and a pump used to physically aspirate material from blood vessels. This is an invasive procedure.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD is a medical device intended for use in vitro for the examination of specimens, including blood and tissue, derived from the human body, in order to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring or compatibility purposes. This device does not perform any analysis of specimens outside the body for diagnostic purposes.

The device is an interventional medical device used for a therapeutic procedure within the patient's vascular system.

The Indigo System was most recently cleared under K180105.

The Indigo System is designed to remove thrombus from the vasculature using continuous aspiration. The Aspiration Catheter targets aspiration from the Aspiration Pump directly to the thrombus. The Separator may be used to clear the lumen of the Aspiration Catheter should it become blocked with thrombus. The use of the Separator may not be necessary when using an Aspiration Catheter with an I.D. of 0.054in or larger. The Aspiration Catheter is introduced through a guide catheter or long femoral sheath and into the site of the primary occlusion. The Aspiration Catheter is used with the Aspiration Pump to aspirate thrombus from an occluded vessel. As needed, a Separator may be deployed from the Aspiration Catheter to assist with thrombus removal.

The Aspiration Catheter may be provided with a steam shaping mandrel and rotating hemostasis valve, and a peelable sheath. The Separator is provided with an introducer and torque device. The Aspiration Catheters and Separators are visible under fluoroscopy.

The Indigo Aspiration Tubing

The Indigo Aspiration Tubing connects the Penumbra Aspiration Pump Canister to the Indigo Aspiration Catheter within the sterile field, providing a means for introducing vacuum during procedures. The Aspiration Tubing has a flow switch that allows the physician to start and stop the flow of aspiration. The Aspiration Tubing is available in three inner diameters: 0.071 in [1.80mm] for IST1, 0.088 in [2.24mm] for IST2, and 0.110 in [2.79mm] for IST3 and IST4. The Aspiration Tubing is designed and composed of materials which are commonly used in interventional devices.
