Intended Use
INDIGO Aspiration Catheters and Separators: As part of the INDIGO Aspiration System, the INDIGO Aspiration Catheters and Separators are indicated for the removal of fresh, soft emboli and thrombi from vessels of the peripheral arterial and venous systems, and for the treatment of pulmonary embolism. INDIGO Aspiration Tubing: As part of the INDIGO Aspiration System, the INDIGO Sterile Aspiration Tubing is indicated to connect the INDIGO Aspiration Catheters to the Penumbra Aspiration Pump. Penumbra Aspiration Pump: The Penumbra Aspiration Pump is indicated as a vacuum source for Penumbra Aspiration Systems.
Device Description
The INDIGO® Aspiration System is comprised of: - INDIGO Aspiration Catheter . - Penumbra Aspiration Pump . - INDIGO Aspiration Pump Canister ● - INDIGO Aspiration Tubing ● - INDIGO Separator™ . The INDIGO Aspiration System is designed to remove thrombus from the vasculature using mechanical aspiration. The INDIGO Aspiration Catheter targets aspiration from the pump directly to the thrombus. The INDIGO Separator may be used to clear the lumen of the INDIGO Aspiration Catheter should it become blocked with thrombus. The INDIGO Aspiration Catheter is introduced through a guide catheter or vascular sheath and into the peripheral vasculature and guided over a guidewire to the site of the primary occlusion. The INDIGO Aspiration Catheter is used with the Penumbra Aspiration Pump to aspirate thrombus from an occluded vessel. As needed, an INDIGO Separator may be deployed from the INDIGO Aspiration Catheter to assist with thrombus removal. The INDIGO Separator is advanced and retracted through the INDIGO Aspiration Catheter at the proximal margin of the primary occlusion to facilitate clearing of the thrombus from the INDIGO Aspiration Catheter tip. The devices are visible under fluoroscopy. For the aspiration source, the INDIGO Aspiration Catheter is used in conjunction with the Penumbra Aspiration Pump, which is connected using the INDIGO Aspiration Tubing and the INDIGO Aspiration Pump Canister. The INDIGO Aspiration Catheter may be provided with a steam shaping mandrel, rotating hemostasis valve, and introducer. The INDIGO Separator may be provided with an introducer and torque device.
More Information

No
The device description focuses on mechanical aspiration and physical components, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

Yes
The device is indicated for "the removal of fresh, soft emboli and thrombi from vessels of the peripheral arterial and venous systems, and for the treatment of pulmonary embolism," which describes a therapeutic action to treat a medical condition.

No

The device is indicated for the removal of emboli and thrombi (a therapeutic function), not for diagnosing their presence or characteristics.

No

The device description clearly outlines multiple hardware components including catheters, a pump, tubing, and a canister, which are integral to the system's function.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for the "removal of fresh, soft emboli and thrombi from vessels of the peripheral arterial and venous systems, and for the treatment of pulmonary embolism." This is a therapeutic intervention performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The description details a system designed to mechanically aspirate thrombus from the vasculature. This is a physical procedure, not a test performed on a sample taken from the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, tissue, etc.) or providing diagnostic information based on such analysis. The device's function is to remove material from the body, not to diagnose a condition based on in vitro testing.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device does not fit that description.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The Indigo System, clinical study (EXTRACT-PE) was cleared in K192833 (reference device). The EXTRACT-PE trial demonstrated that the Indigo Aspiration System showed substantially equivalent safety and effectiveness outcomes for acute PE. The primary efficacy and safety endpoints were met. No additional clinical study was conducted as bench and previously performed animal testing was determined sufficient for verification and validation purposes. A review of the technological characteristics of the subject and reference device supported leveraging the clinical outcomes of the EXTRACT-PE Clinical study for the subject device.

Dear Michaela Mahl:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
