Intended Use

The CERENOVUS Large Bore Catheter is indicated for use in facilitating the insertion and guidance of appropriately sized interventional devices into a selected blood vessel in the neurovascular system. The CERENOVUS Large Bore Catheter is also indicated for use as a conduit for retrieval devices.

Device Description

The CERENOVUS Large Bore Catheter is a variable stiffness, single lumen catheter designed to be introduced over a steerable guide wire or microcatheter into the neuro vasculature. The catheter shaft is composed of a stainless steel variable pitch braid with a PTFE inner liner to facilitate movement of guide wires and other devices. The exterior of the catheter shaft is covered with polymer materials, which encapsulate the stainless steel braid construction. The catheter has a stiff proximal shaft which transitions into the flexible distal shaft to facilitate the advancement of the catheter in the anatomy. The distal end of the catheter has a radiopague marker band to facilitate fluoroscopic visualization and has a hydrophilic coating to provide lubricity for navigation of vessels. The proximal end of the catheter has a luer fitting located on the end of the catheter hub. An ID band is placed at the distal end of the hub over a strain relief. The catheter is packaged with a hemostasis valve with a side port and two peel-away introducers as accessories. The hemostasis valve with side port is used for flushing and insertion of catheters. The peel away introducer sheaths are designed to protect the distal tip of the catheter during insertion into the hemostasis valve.

AI/ML Overview

Here's the information about the acceptance criteria and the study proving the device meets them, based on the provided text:

Note: The provided document is a 510(k) summary for a medical device (CERENOVUS Large Bore Catheter). This type of submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, rather than proving efficacy in the same way a new drug or high-risk device might. Therefore, the "study" described is primarily a series of bench tests and biocompatibility assessments, not clinical trials comparing device performance with and without AI, or studies involving human experts for ground truth establishment. Many of the specific points requested (like sample size for test set, number of experts for ground truth, adjudication method, MRMC study effect size, standalone performance, training set details) are generally not applicable or not reported in this type of document for a Class II percutaneous catheter.
