Intended Use

The Serranator® PTA Serration Balloon Catheter is intended for dilatation of lesions in infrapopliteal arteries. Not for use in the coronary or neuro-vasculature.

Device Description

The Serranator® PTA Serration Balloon Catheter is an over-the-wire (OTW) balloon dilatation catheter designed to perform percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) for peripheral indications as described in the Indication for Use statement. The Serranator® has a nylon semicompliant balloon with three embedded external metal strips or scoring elements. The unique scoring elements are serrated, designed to modify the plaque by creating linear, interrupted scoring along the endoluminal surface. This occurs during balloon inflation and is designed to aid arterial expansion.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

  • Non-Clinical Testing/Performance & Biocompatibility: The document states that "Bench testing... was performed on sterile, unaged (Time Zero) and accelerated aged (Time Aged) test samples" and "Biocompatibility testing was conducted on sterile, finished devices". Specific sample sizes for each bench or biocompatibility test are not provided. The data provenance is from laboratory testing, not human subjects or real-world clinical data.
  • Animal Studies: A total of two porcine test subjects were used for the animal study. This is a prospective animal study.
  • Cadaver Studies: A diseased cadaver study was not performed for this specific device. However, a cadaver study was performed for the reference device (Serranator® Alto PTA Serration Balloon Catheter, K163380) to determine medial thickness of non-diseased infrapopliteal arteries. The sample size for this cadaver study is not specified, nor is the provenance beyond "cadaver artery assessment."
    • Data Provenance for device performance: Lab/bench testing, animal studies, and cadaver studies (for reference device). No country of origin is specified for the animal or cadaver studies.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)

This device is not an AI/ML device, and therefore, there is no mention of experts establishing ground truth for a test set in the context of diagnostic or interpretive performance. The "ground truth" for the non-clinical and animal studies would be the objective measurements and observations made by laboratory personnel and veterinarians/pathologists during the respective tests, based on established protocols and standards. No specific number or qualifications are provided as this is a traditional medical device submission.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

Not applicable, as this is not an AI/ML device requiring human adjudication of results for a test set. The non-clinical and animal studies are assessed against predefined pass/fail criteria.

5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

Not applicable, as this is not an AI/ML device and there is no mention of human readers or AI assistance.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

Not applicable, as this is not an AI/ML device.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)

The "ground truth" for this device's performance is established through:

  • Objective measurements and observations from bench testing against engineering specifications and regulatory standards (e.g., burst pressure, tensile strength, dimension checks).
  • Biological responses observed in biocompatibility tests (e.g., cell viability, immune response, blood compatibility).
  • In vivo observations in animal studies (e.g., absence of thrombus, dissection, perforations, successful deployment/retraction).
  • Anatomical measurements from cadaver studies (for the reference device) to inform design parameters.

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable, as this is not an AI/ML device. There is no concept of a "training set" for physical device testing as described.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

Not applicable, as this is not an AI/ML device.

5.1 Intended Use/Indications for Use

The Serranator® PTA Serration Balloon Catheter is intended for dilatation of lesions in infrapopliteal arteries. Not for use in the coronary or neuro-vasculature.

5.2 Device Description

The Serranator® PTA Serration Balloon Catheter is an over-the-wire (OTW) balloon dilatation catheter designed to perform percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) for peripheral indications as described in the Indication for Use statement. The Serranator® has a nylon semicompliant balloon with three embedded external metal strips or scoring elements. The unique scoring elements are serrated, designed to modify the plaque by creating linear, interrupted scoring along the endoluminal surface. This occurs during balloon inflation and is designed to aid arterial expansion.

5.3 Comparison with Predicate Devices

A comparison of the Serranator® PTA Serration Balloon Catheter (Serranator) and predicate device shows that the technological characteristics such as the components, design, materials, sterilization method, and operating principle of the Serranator are identical or similar to the currently marketed AngioSculpt® PTA Scoring Balloon Catheter (AngioSculpt) (K142983) and the Serranator® Alto PTA Serration Balloon Catheter (Serranator Alto) (K163380), predicate and reference devices respectively.

The technological differences are that the scoring elements of Serranator® are interrupted, rather than a continuous metal configuration such as the AngioSculpt device. The unique scoring elements are serrated, designed to create linear, interrupted scoring along the endoluminal surface.

The intended use of the subject device and the predicate device is similar. The indications for use of the Serranator® PTA Serration Balloon Catheter are similar to that of the Serranator Alto reference device.

5.4 Non-Clinical Testing/Performance

The Serranator® PTA Serration Balloon Catheter has been tested through the design verification activities to demonstrate that the device meets design input requirements. The following tests were conducted and passed all requirements (see Table 3.1 below).

Table 5.2: Biocompatibility Tests

In addition to the tests indicated in Table 5.2, thrombogenicity evaluation was conducted as part of the Acute Porcine Study.

5.6 Animal Studies

An animal study was performed to assess usability, performance and acute thromboresistance of the Serranator® PTA Serration Balloon Catheter in swine peripheral arteries. In accordance with general FDA animal study guidelines and ISO-10993-4 methodology, a total of two porcine test subjects were used for assessment. No adverse events including filling defects, dissections, thrombus formation or perforations occurred in this study.

5.7 Cadaver Studies

A diseased cadaver study was not performed using the Serranator® PTA Serration Balloon Catheter (Serranator) as this testing was conducted in the reference device, the Serranator® Alto PTA Serration Balloon Catheter (Serranator Alto) submission (K163380). The results between the subject device and the Serranator Alto (reference) were not expected to differ as both devices have the same function, design and mechanism of action.

A cadaver artery assessment was performed to determine the medial thickness of non-diseased infrapopliteal arteries. These data were used to determine an appropriate strip height for safety. Arteries assessed showed minimal atherosclerotic disease ranging from mild disease to no calcification. Average medial thickness varied significantly between popliteal, anterior tibial, posterior tibial, tibial-peroneal, and peroneal sections.

{7}------------------------------------------------

5.7 Conclusion

The Serranator® PTA Serration Balloon Catheter has similar intended use and similar technological characteristics such as components, design, materials, sterilization method, and operating principles as the predicate and reference devices. Performance data demonstrates that the device functions as intended.

Data presented in this 510(k) Submission support that the Serranator® PTA Serration Balloon Catheter is substantially equivalent to the predicate AngioSculpt® PTA Scoring Balloon Catheter and reference Serranator® Alto PTA Serration Balloon Catheter.
