Device Description

The subject devices Blue Rhino G1-Multi Percutaneous Tracheostomy Introducer Set/Tray and the Blue Rhino G2-Multi Percutaneous Tracheostomy Introducer Set/Tray are designed for percutaneous dilational tracheostomy for management of the airway. The devices allow for single-stage dilation, which is achieved with a single rhino-horn-shaped dilator using an in-andout motion. Sets and trays include a Blue Rhino G1 Dilator or Blue Rhino G2 Dilator, loading dilators (6.5, 7.0, 7.5, 8.0, 8.5, 9.0, and 10.0 mm) an 8 Fr guiding catheter, a 14 Fr access dilator, and a wire guide. Sets and trays are available in multiple configurations, which include various set and tray components associated with the procedure and/or for gaining percutaneous access.

The Blue Rhino G1 Dilator is manufactured as a 38-Fr tracheostomy dilator with a length of 20 cm. This dilator has a depth marking to indicate the skin level, which is placed 11 cm from the distal tip. Another feature of the device is the presence of hydrophilic coating on the distal 11 cm of the device.

The Blue Rhino G2 Dilator is identical to the Blue Rhino G1 Dilator with additional surface modifications, which include a diamond (crosshatched) pattern along the proximal 8 cm of the dilator (handle), and longitudinal grooves covering the distal 10 cm curved portion of the device to the distal tip.

The loading dilators are manufactured in 6.5 to 10.0 mm with a length of 20 cm and are curved at the distal end.

The 8 Fr guiding catheter measures 29 cm in length and is designed with an end hole, a distal ridge, and proximal markings.

The 14 Fr access dilator is manufactured in a length measurement of 6.5 cm.

The wire guide measures 55 cm in length, is manufactured of stainless steel, and is designed with a "J" tip with a 3 mm curve.

The subject device Weinmann-Multi Tracheostomy Exchange Set is comprised of a Blue Rhino G1 Dilator, loading dilators (7.0, 7.5, 8.0, 8.5, and 9.0 mm), an 8 Fr Cook Airway Exchange Catheter, and two Rapi-Fit Adapters.

The Blue Rhino G1 Dilator supplied with the Weinmann-Multi Tracheostomy Exchange Set is identical to the Blue Rhino G1 Dilator supplied with the Blue Rhino G1-Multi Percutaneous Tracheostomy Introducer Set/Tray.

The loading dilators are manufactured in 7.0 to 9.0 mm with a length of 20 cm and are curved at the distal end, and are identical to the tracheostomy tube loading dilators sized 7.0, 7.5, 8.0, 8.5, and 9.0 mm supplied with the Blue Rhino G1-Multi Percutaneous Tracheostomy Introducer Set/Tray and Blue Rhino G2-Multi Percutaneous Tracheostomy Introducer Set/Tray.

The airway exchange catheter is manufactured as an 8.0 Fr catheter measuring 45 cm in length. The distal end of the airway exchange is characterized by a blunt tip with rounded edges.

Two Rapi-Fit adapters (one with a 15-mm connector, and one with a Luer lock connector) are provided to be used with the exchange catheter for oxygenation when the requirement for oxygen is high in patients but the tracheostomy tube is not in place. The 15 mm Rapi-Fit adapter is designed for attachment to traditional ventilator sources that are low pressure sources, or socalled continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) ventilators. The Luer Lock Rapi-Fit adapter is designed for attachment to a high-pressure jet ventilation oxygen source. The Luer Lock is compatible with a variable connector or the standard Luer fitting of an oxygen tube which is connected to an oxygen source.

Predicate Devices:

  • . The Ciaglia Blue Rhino Percutaneous Tracheostomy Introducer Set and Ciaglia Blue Rhino G2 Advanced Percutaneous Tracheostomy Introducer Set/Tray were cleared under K133597 on April 18, 2014.
  • The Weinmann Tracheostomy Exchange Set was cleared under K180034 on May 7, . 2018.

Comparison to Predicate:

The proposed Blue Rhino G1-Multi Percutaneous Tracheostomy Introducer Set/Tray and Blue Rhino G2-Multi Percutaneous Tracheostomy Introducer Set/Tray compared to the predicate devices, Ciaglia Blue Rhino Percutaneous Tracheostomy Introducer Set/Tray and Ciaglia Blue Rhino G2 Advanced Percutaneous Tracheostomy Introducer Set/Tray (K133597), are identical in intended use, principles of operation, technological characteristics, design, and nearly identical in materials of construction and dimensions.

The predicate submissions offered five loading dilators in five French sizes. The set components of the Blue Rhino G1-Multi Percutaneous Tracheostomy Introducer Set/Tray and Blue Rhino G2-Multi Percutaneous Tracheostomy Introducer Set/Tray subjects of this submission offer a total of seven loading dilators in millimeter sizes. The ink material used to mark the millimeter size of the tracheostomy tube loading dilator has changed, and the outer diameter has changed slightly for three loading dilators. The content of product labeling has changed slightly. The dimensions of the product labels and of the marketing carton of the sets/trays supplied with separately packaged tracheostomy tubes have also changed. The safety and/or effectiveness of the subject device for the modifications to the loading dilators that include two new sizes and outer dimeter changes, and the package and labeling changes are supported by performance testing; and the ink material change supported by biocompatibility testing.

Additionally, predicate submission K133597 offered access dilators in 14 French size and measuring 4.5 or 6.5 centimeters in length. The subject devices Blue Rhino G1-Multi Percutaneous Tracheostomy Introducer Set/Tray and Blue Rhino G2-Multi Percutaneous Tracheostomy Introducer Set/Tray will standardize the access dilator to the 14 French size and 6.5 centimeter length access dilator.

The Blue Rhino G1 Dilator is manufactured as a 38-Fr tracheostomy dilator with a length of 20 cm. This dilator has a depth marking to indicate the skin level, which is placed 11 cm from the distal tip. Another feature of the device is the presence of hydrophilic coating on the distal 11 cm of the device.

The Blue Rhino G2 Dilator is identical to the Blue Rhino G1 Dilator with additional surface modifications, which include a diamond (crosshatched) pattern along the proximal 8 cm of the dilator (handle), and longitudinal grooves covering the distal 10 cm curved portion of the device to the distal tip.

The loading dilators are manufactured in 6.5 to 10.0 mm with a length of 20 cm and are curved at the distal end.

The 8 Fr guiding catheter measures 29 cm in length and is designed with an end hole, a distal ridge, and proximal markings.

The 14 Fr access dilator is manufactured in a length measurement of 6.5 cm.

The wire guide measures 55 cm in length, is manufactured of stainless steel, and is designed with a "J" tip with a 3 mm curve.

Weinmann-Multi Tracheostomy Exchange Set

The subject device Weinmann-Multi Tracheostomy Exchange Set is comprised of a Blue Rhino G1 Dilator, loading dilators (7.0, 7.5, 8.0, 8.5, and 9.0 mm), an 8 Fr Cook Airway Exchange Catheter, and two Rapi-Fit Adapters.

The Blue Rhino G1 Dilator supplied with the Weinmann-Multi Tracheostomy Exchange Set is identical to the Blue Rhino G1 Dilator supplied with the Blue Rhino G1-Multi Percutaneous Tracheostomy Introducer Set/Tray.

The loading dilators are manufactured in 7.0 to 9.0 mm with a length of 20 cm and are curved at the distal end, and are identical to the tracheostomy tube loading dilators sized 7.0, 7.5, 8.0, 8.5, and 9.0 mm supplied with the Blue Rhino G1-Multi Percutaneous Tracheostomy Introducer Set/Tray and Blue Rhino G2-Multi Percutaneous Tracheostomy Introducer Set/Tray.

The airway exchange catheter is manufactured as an 8.0 Fr catheter measuring 45 cm in length. The distal end of the airway exchange is characterized by a blunt tip with rounded edges.

Two Rapi-Fit adapters (one with a 15-mm connector, and one with a Luer lock connector) are provided to be used with the exchange catheter for oxygenation when the requirement for oxygen is high in patients but the tracheostomy tube is not in place. The 15 mm Rapi-Fit adapter is designed for attachment to traditional ventilator sources that are low pressure sources, or socalled continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) ventilators. The Luer Lock Rapi-Fit adapter is designed for attachment to a high-pressure jet ventilation oxygen source. The Luer Lock is compatible with a variable connector or the standard Luer fitting of an oxygen tube which is connected to an oxygen source.

Indications for Use:

  • a. The Blue Rhino G1-Multi Percutaneous Tracheostomy Introducer Set/Tray is intended for percutaneous dilational tracheostomy for management of the airway in adults only.
