The CERENOVUS Large Bore Catheter, with the CERENOVUS® Aspiration Tubing Set and NOUVAG Vacuson 60 aspiration pump (or equivalent aspiration pump), is indicated for use in the revascularization of patients with acute ischemic stroke secondary to intracranial large vessel occlusive disease (within the internal carotid, middle cerebral - M1 and M2 segments, basilar, and vertebral arteries) within 8 hours of symptom onset. Patients who are ineligible for intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (IV t-PA) or who failed IV t-PA are candidates for treatment.
The CERENOVUS® Aspiration Tubing Set is intended to connect the CERENOVUS Large Bore Catheter to the canister of the NOUVAG Vacuson 60 Aspiration Pump (or equivalent vacuum pump) and to allow the user to control the fluid flow.
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 radiopaque 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 which can be used to attach accessories for flushing and aspiration. 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, insertion of catheters, and connection to an external aspiration system. The peel away introducer sheaths are designed to protect the distal tip of the catheter during insertion into the hemostasis valve.
The CERENOVUS Large Bore Catheter can be connected to the NOUVAG Vacuson 60 aspiration pump (or equivalent aspiration pump) using the CERENOVUS® Aspiration Tubing Set.
The provided text describes a 510(k) premarket notification for a medical device (CERENOVUS Large Bore Catheter and Tubing Set), which focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device through non-clinical performance, animal, sterilization, shelf-life, and biocompatibility testing. It does not include information about AI/ML device performance, human reader studies, or the establishment of ground truth by expert consensus. Therefore, I cannot generate a response that fulfills the requirements of the prompt regarding acceptance criteria for an AI/ML device or studies proving its performance.
The document is purely about a physical medical device and its mechanical/physical/biological properties, not an AI/ML diagnostic or assistive technology.
