Intended Use

The Sapphire NC Plus Coronary Dilatation Catheter is indicated for:
· balloon dilatation of the stenotic portion of a coronary artery or bypass graft stenosis in patients evidencing coronary ischemia for the purpose of improving myocardial perfusion

  • · balloon dilatation of a coronary artery occlusion for the treatment of acute myocardial infarction
  • · in-stent restenosis
    · post-delivery expansion of balloon expandable coronary stents
Device Description

The Sapphire NC Plus coronary dilatation catheter is a percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) balloon catheter with a working length of 140cm. The proximal shaft is a polymer coated stainless steel hypotube. Lubricious coatings are applied to the distal section. The non-compliant balloons, available in diameters from 2.0- 5.0mm and lengths from 8-18mm, can be inflated by injecting dilute contrast media solution through the trailing hub of the catheter. Two radiopaque platinum marker bands are located within the balloon segment. The catheter is compatible with 5F (6F for Ø4.5-5.0mm) or larger guiding catheters. The internal lumen of the catheter accepts a standard 0.014 inch PTCA guidewire. The proximal part of the guidewire enters the catheter tip and advances coaxially out the catheter proximal port, thereby allowing both coaxial guidance and rapid exchange of catheters with a single standard length guidewire. Two marked sections are located on the hypotube shaft to indicate catheter position relative to the tip of either a brachial or femoral guiding catheter. The design of this dilatation catheter does not incorporate a lumen for distal dye injections or distal pressure measurements. This Special 510(k) describes the addition of the Ø4.5- 5.0mm balloon configurations to the Sapphire NC Plus PTCA catheter family.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) Summary for a medical device, the "Sapphire NC Plus Coronary Dilatation Catheter." This document describes the device, its intended use, and the testing performed to demonstrate its substantial equivalence to a predicate device for regulatory clearance. It does not describe an AI/ML-based medical device.

Therefore, the information requested in the prompt, which pertains to AI/ML device validation (e.g., acceptance criteria for diagnostic accuracy, sample sizes for AI model training/testing, expert adjudication, MRMC studies, ground truth establishment methods), is not present in the provided text.

The document discusses performance data related to the physical properties and functionality of the balloon catheter, such as:

  • Shelf-Life Performance Testing
  • Visual Inspection
  • Dimension Inspection
  • Balloon Preparation, Deployment, and Retraction
  • Balloon Rated Burst Pressure
  • Balloon Fatigue
  • Balloon Compliance
  • Balloon Inflation and Deflation Time
  • Catheter Bond Strength
  • Tip Pull Strength
  • Particulate Evaluation
  • Balloon Rated Burst Pressure (within stent)
  • Balloon Fatigue (within stent)

The "Performance Data" section states, "The Sapphire NC Plus test results met all acceptance criteria and were similar to the predicate devices." However, it does not provide a table of these acceptance criteria or the specific numerical results. It only generically states that testing was performed and met criteria.

To answer your request, here's what can be extracted based on the provided text, and what cannot:

What Can Be Inferred/Stated from the Text (within the context of a physical medical device, not AI):

  • Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance: The document states that "The Sapphire NC Plus test results met all acceptance criteria and were similar to the predicate devices." However, it does not provide a specific table of these criteria or the numerical performance results of the catheter (e.g., specific burst pressure values, inflation times, etc.). These would typically be detailed in a separate test report referenced by the 510(k) but not included in this summary.
  • Sample sizes used for the test set and the data provenance: Not explicitly stated. The tests are for the physical device properties and would involve a sample of manufactured catheters. The provenance would be the manufacturing site.
  • Training/Test Set Information (for AI): Not applicable, as this is a physical medical device, not an AI/ML diagnostic.
  • Number of experts used to establish ground truth & qualifications: Not applicable. Ground truth for a physical device is established through engineering and scientific testing standards.
  • Adjudication method: Not applicable.
  • MRMC comparative effectiveness study: Not applicable.
  • Standalone performance: The performance data listed (e.g., burst pressure, fatigue) represent the standalone performance of the device itself. No human interaction for "reading" or "interpreting" is involved in these specific tests.
  • Type of ground truth used: Engineering specifications, material properties, and established test standards for medical devices (e.g., ISO standards, ASTM standards).
  • Sample size for the training set (for AI): Not applicable.
  • How the ground truth for the training set was established (for AI): Not applicable.

In summary, the provided document is a regulatory submission for a physical medical device (coronary dilatation catheter) and does not contain the information requested about AI/ML device acceptance criteria or validation studies.

§ 870.5100 Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty (PTCA) Catheter.

(a)
Standard PTCA Catheter —(1)Identification. A PTCA catheter is a device that operates on the principle of hydraulic pressurization applied through an inflatable balloon attached to the distal end. A PTCA balloon catheter has a single or double lumen shaft. The catheter features a balloon of appropriate compliance for the clinical application, constructed from a polymer. The balloon is designed to uniformly expand to a specified diameter and length at a specific pressure as labeled, with well characterized rates of inflation and deflation and a defined burst pressure. The device generally features a type of radiographic marker to facilitate fluoroscopic visualization of the balloon during use. A PTCA catheter is intended for balloon dilatation of a hemodynamically significant coronary artery or bypass graft stenosis in patients evidencing coronary ischemia for the purpose of improving myocardial perfusion. A PTCA catheter may also be intended for the treatment of acute myocardial infarction; treatment of in-stent restenosis (ISR) and/or post-deployment stent expansion.(2)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special control for this device is “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document for Certain Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty (PTCA) Catheters.” See § 870.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.(b)
Cutting/scoring PTCA Catheter —(1)Identification. A cutting/scoring PTCA catheter is a balloon-tipped catheter with cutting/scoring elements attached, which is used in those circumstances where a high pressure balloon resistant lesion is encountered. A cutting/scoring PTCA catheter is intended for the treatment of hemodynamically significant coronary artery stenosis for the purpose of improving myocardial perfusion. A cutting/scoring PTCA catheter may also be indicated for use in complex type C lesions or for the treatment of in-stent restenosis.(2)
Classification. Class III (premarket approval). As of May 28, 1976, an approval under section 515 of the act is required before this device may be commercially distributed. See § 870.3.
