Intended Use
The Occlusion Balloon Catheter is indicated for temporary occlusion of large vessels, including the superior vena cava, in applications including perioperative occlusion and emergency control of hemorrhage.
Device Description
The Occlusion Balloon Catheter is a multi-lumen catheter which has a compliant polyurethane balloon with a maximum diameter of 32mm at 60cc inflation volume. The balloon has a nominal length of 80mm. The device is constructed with a blended PEBA shaft and is available in two models; one model is compatible with 8Fr (or larger) introducer sheaths and one model is compatible with 10Fr (or larger) introducer sheaths. Both models provide the same balloon performance with respect to sizing and occlusion. The two models are intended for individual physician preference for patient-specific sheath selection. The device has an effective length of 90cm and is compatible with 0.035" diameter guidewires. Three (3) platinum-iridium radiopaque marker bands are placed on the shaft to facilitate balloon placement in the anatomy prior to inflation. The proximal end of the catheter has an integral PEBA bifurcation manifold with female luer ports to allow communication with the balloon inflation lumen and guidewire lumen. A PVC extension tube (with stopcock) is connected to the balloon inflation port to facilitate handling. The device is a single use, sterile device.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the mechanical and physical properties of a balloon catheter, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

Yes

The device is indicated for temporary occlusion of large vessels for applications including perioperative occlusion and emergency control of hemorrhage, which directly treats or manages a medical condition.

No

Explanation: The "Intended Use/Indications for Use" section states that the device is "indicated for temporary occlusion of large vessels...in applications including perioperative occlusion and emergency control of hemorrhage." This describes a therapeutic, rather than a diagnostic, function. The device description also focuses on its mechanical properties for blockage, not for gathering information about a condition.

No

The device description clearly details a physical catheter with a balloon, shaft, marker bands, and luer ports, indicating it is a hardware medical device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the temporary occlusion of large vessels within the body, specifically for perioperative occlusion and emergency control of hemorrhage. This is a therapeutic and interventional procedure performed directly on a patient.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical catheter with a balloon designed for mechanical occlusion within blood vessels. It describes its construction, dimensions, and how it is used with introducer sheaths and guidewires.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD device is used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not interact with patient specimens in vitro.

The device described is a medical device used for a therapeutic intervention in vivo (within the body).

Dear Fernando Di Caprio:

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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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.

Comparison to Predicate and Reference Devices

The Occlusion Balloon Catheter has the same or similar intended use, indications, technological characteristics, and principles of operation as the previously cleared predicate device. Like the predicate device, the Occlusion Balloon Catheter is placed into the patient's vascular system via percutaneous access. It achieves temporary occlusion of large vessels by inflating a compliant balloon on the distal end of a multi-lumen shaft with a known quantity of inflation fluid using a standard syringe. Like the predicate device, the Occlusion Catheter has a maximum inflation volume of 60 ml and sterilized using ethylene oxide (EO).

Additionally, the Occlusion Balloon Catheter has the same materials, technological characteristics, manufacturing methods and principles of operation as the previously cleared reference device. The Occlusion Balloon Catheter has all the same materials (shaft, balloon, tip, manifold, and packaging) and manufacturing methods as the reference device. Like the reference device, the Occlusion Balloon Catheter is placed into the patient's vascular system via percutaneous access. It achieves temporary occlusion of large vessels by inflating a compliant balloon on the distal end of a multi-lumen shaft with a known quantity of inflation fluid using a standard syringe. Like the reference device, the Occlusion Catheter has a maximum inflation volume of 60 ml and sterilized using ethylene oxide (EO).

No significant differences impacting safety and effectiveness were identified with respect to intended use, materials, technological characteristics, and principles of operation.

Substantial Equivalence Comparison

Based on a comparison of the intended use/indications for use, principle of use, intended anatomical location, and technological characteristics, along with the results from a series of non-clinical tests, the Occlusion Balloon Catheter has been shown to be substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

The Occlusion Balloon Catheter raises no new questions of safety or effectiveness compared to the predicate device and is eligible for premarket clearance.

Conclusion

Based on the successful results from the Non-Clinical Testing performed and the Substantial Equivalence Comparison, we conclude that the device is substantially equivalent to the legally marketed predicate device listed above.
