Intended Use
The Micro Catheter is intended for selective delivery of therapeutic devices and infusion of contrast media into the peripheral and neuro vasculature.
Device Description
The proposed device Micro Catheter is a single-lumen catheter designed to be introduced over a steerable guidewire into the peripheral and neuro vasculature. The proximal end of the catheter incorporates standard Luer adapter to facilitate the attachment of accessories. The outer surface of the catheter has a lubricious coating at the distal end of the Micro Catheter has a radiopaque marker at the distal end to facilitate fluoroscopic visualization. The device is intended for single use and is provided sterile.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical characteristics and mechanical performance of a catheter, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

No
The device is described as a micro catheter intended for delivery of therapeutic devices, not as a therapeutic device itself.

No

The device description and intended use state that the micro catheter is for the delivery of therapeutic devices and infusion of contrast media. It is not described as a device used to identify, monitor, or predict disease.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical catheter with a lumen, Luer adapter, lubricious coating, and radiopaque marker. It is intended for physical introduction into the vasculature.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the delivery of therapeutic devices and contrast media into the body (peripheral and neuro vasculature). This is an in vivo (within the living body) application.
  • Device Description: The description details a catheter designed for insertion into blood vessels. This is a medical device used for direct intervention within the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD device is used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) in vitro (outside the living body) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The provided information does not mention any such use or interaction with bodily specimens outside the body.

Therefore, the Micro Catheter described is a medical device used for therapeutic and diagnostic procedures performed within the patient's body, not an IVD.

Dear Diana Hong:

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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's

1

requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

Sterilization and Shelf Life

The Micro Catheter sterilization process using Ethylene Oxide (EO) has been validated in accordance with ISO 11135:2014 to achieve a sterility assurance level (SAL) of 10th. EO and Ethylene Chlorohydrin (ECH) residuals were below the limits specified in ISO 10993-7:2008. Bacterial Endotoxin Levels were below the level of 2.15 EU/device in accordance with USP . Both baseline and accelerated shelf life testing were conducted demonstrating the device will perform as intended to support the proposed 2 year shelf-life.

9. Clinical Performance Testing

No clinical studies were necessary to demonstrate substantial equivalence.

10. Conclusion

The subject device has similar technological characteristics and intended use as the predicate device. The differences do not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness. The biocompatibility, sterility and bench performance testing demonstrate that the Micro Catheter is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
