The TracStar Large Distal Platform is indicated for the introduction of interventional devices into the peripheral, coronary, and neuro vasculature.
The ZOOM 88 and ZOOM 88-T Large Distal Platform are indicated for the introduction of interventional devices into the peripheral, coronary, and neuro vasculature.
The Imperative Care Large Distal Platform (LDP) Catheters include the TracStar™ LDP, Zoom™ 88 LDP and Zoom™ 88-T LDP. The LDP Catheters are 0.038" or smaller guidewire compatible single lumen guide catheters that provide access to peripheral, coronary and neuro vasculature. The catheters are comprised of a hollow cylindrical tube bonded at the proximal end to a standard luer fitting. The wall of the tube is constructed using a combination of metal coils/braids and medical grade polymers. The distal section of each catheter has a hydrophilic coating to enhance tracking through tortuous vasculature. An angled distal soft tip facilitates smooth tracking past vessel branches. A radiopaque marker provides visual confirmation of the distal tip location under fluoroscopy. LDP Catheters have an inner diameter of 0.088" (6F compatible), and a maximum outer diameter of 0.110". The LDP guide catheters are packaged with a rotating hemostasis valve (RHV) that is attached to the proximal luer to help maintain hemostasis.
This document is a 510(k) Summary for a medical device (TracStar Large Distal Platform, ZOOM 88 Large Distal Platform, ZOOM 88-T Large Distal Platform). It focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device, rather than providing a detailed clinical study with human readers or AI algorithms for diagnostic purposes. The "acceptance criteria" and "study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" in this context refer to engineering and performance specifications for the physical catheter device, not a diagnostic algorithm's performance on medical images.
Therefore, many of the requested items related to AI/MRMC studies, ground truth establishment, expert adjudication, and training/test set sample sizes are not applicable here.
However, I can extract information related to the device's physical performance testing.
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
The document provides a table of "Test Attributes" (which serve as acceptance criteria) and the "Results". All tests passed their respective specifications.
| Test Attribute | Specification | Reported Device Performance (Results) |
|---|---|---|
| Delivery, Compatibility, and Retraction (Trackability) | The catheter shall be able to be delivered, deployed, and retracted per the IFU within a simulated neurological model without incurring any damage to the catheter. | Pass |
| Flexibility and Kink Resistance | There shall be no kinking of shaft (permanent deformation) after simulated use. | Pass |
| Compatibility with other Devices (external) | The catheters shall be able to be delivered through the minimum introducer sheath or guide catheter size indicated in the product labeling. | Pass |
| Guidewire Compatibility | The catheters shall be able to be delivered over the maximum size guidewire indicated in the product labeling. | Pass |
| Interventional Device Compatibility (internal) | The catheters shall be able to accommodate other interventional devices (e.g., support catheter, diagnostic catheter) up to the maximum size indicated in the product labeling. | Pass |
| Luer Compatibility | Devices and accessories shall be compatible with standard syringe luer fittings per ISO 80369-7. | Pass |
| Accessory Compatibility | Devices shall be compatible with an RHV. | Pass |
| Catheter Bond Strength | The catheter shall have sufficient bond strengths to remain intact throughout a procedure. | Pass |
| Freedom from Leakage – positive pressure | No liquid leakage from the hub or catheter shaft at 46psi for 30 seconds. | Pass |
| Freedom from Leakage – negative pressure | No air leakage into a 20cc syringe when vacuum pulled for 15 seconds. | Pass |
| Kink Resistance | There shall be no kinking of the catheter shaft (permanent deformation) after wrapping around anatomically relevant bend radii. | Pass |
| Pushability | The proximal shaft of the catheters shall have sufficient stiffness that the user can easily push the catheter to the target anatomy without buckling. | Pass |
| Access Force | Catheters shall not require excessive force to safely navigate and track to the target anatomy. | Pass |
2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
The document describes "Bench and Laboratory (in-vitro) testing" and "simulated neurological model". This indicates the testing was conducted in a lab environment using physical devices. There is no information provided about the specific number of devices tested for each attribute (sample size for the test set) or the country of origin of this test data. The testing would be prospective in nature as it's active testing performed to gather data for regulatory submission.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts
Not applicable. This is a physical device performance test, not a diagnostic imaging study requiring expert interpretation or ground truth establishment in the healthcare sense.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
Not applicable. This is a physical device performance test.
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. This is a physical device, not an AI diagnostic tool.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
Not applicable. This is a physical device, not an algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert concensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
The "ground truth" here is determined by engineering specifications and objective measurements against those specifications in a laboratory setting. For example, for "Freedom from Leakage", the ground truth is simply "no liquid leakage" or "no air leakage" under specified conditions. For "Kink Resistance", the ground truth is "no permanent deformation".
8. The sample size for the training set
Not applicable. This is a physical medical device, not a machine learning model that undergoes a training phase.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
Not applicable. As above, this is a physical medical device, not a machine learning model.

- EagleRay Long Sheath EagleRay Access Catheter Guide Catheter Catheter, Percutaneous DOY 21 CFR. 870.1250 Imperative Care Inc. K180169
D. Device Description:
The Imperative Care Large Distal Platform (LDP) Catheters include the TracStar™ LDP, Zoom™ 88 LDP and Zoom™ 88-T LDP. The LDP Catheters are 0.038" or smaller guidewire compatible single lumen guide catheters that provide access to peripheral, coronary and neuro vasculature. The catheters are comprised of a hollow cylindrical tube bonded at the proximal end to a standard luer fitting. The wall of the tube is constructed using a combination of metal coils/braids and medical grade polymers. The distal section of each catheter has a hydrophilic coating to enhance tracking through tortuous vasculature. An angled distal soft tip facilitates smooth tracking past vessel branches. A radiopaque marker provides visual confirmation of the distal tip location under fluoroscopy. LDP Catheters have an inner diameter of 0.088" (6F compatible), and a maximum outer
{4}------------------------------------------------
diameter of 0.110". The LDP guide catheters are packaged with a rotating hemostasis valve (RHV) that is attached to the proximal luer to help maintain hemostasis.
Accessory devices required, but not supplied include:
- . Guidewires
- Support/diagnostic catheters ●
- Introducer sheaths ●
E. Indications for Use:
The TracStar Large Distal Platform is indicated for the introduction of interventional devices into the peripheral, coronary, and neuro vasculature.
The ZOOM 88 and ZOOM 88-T Large Distal Platform are indicated for the introduction of interventional devices into the peripheral, coronary, and neuro vasculature.
F. Principles of Operation:
The LDP Catheters may be used with support catheters to assist in accessing the target vasculature. During use, the male luer of the RHV is attached to the proximal luer of the LDP Catheter to create a continuous lumen through the catheter and to the RHV ports. The female luer is typically connected to a saline drip line while the LDP Catheter is advanced through the vasculature. Use of the LDP Catheter relies on standard percutaneous interventional techniques, including access site preparation, introducing the catheter portion of the device, advancing the catheter under fluoroscopy, withdrawing the catheter, and closing the access site.
G. Predicate Comparison:
The predicate device is the Imperative Care EagleRay Access Catheters cleared under K180169. The predicate and subject devices share the same intended use, basic technology characteristics, and the same performance characteristics, demonstrated through bench and laboratory testing as shown in Table 1.

I. Biocompatibility Testing:
There are no changes to materials compared to the predicate device. Therefore, the original testing on the predicate devices applies to the subject devices and additional biocompatibility testing was not required.
J. Sterilization:
The LDP Catheters are sterilized using a validated EtO process with a sterility assurance level of 1x106 validated per the overkill method in accordance with ISO 11135, "Sterilization Of Health-Care Products - Ethylene Oxide - Requirements For The Development, Validation And Routine Control Of A Sterilization Process For Medical Devices".
{8}------------------------------------------------
K. Shelf Life and Packaging:
Accelerated aging testing based on ASTM F1980 was conducted to verify packaged device performance. A real time aging equivalent of 13 months was used to support a 1-year shelf life claim. Device performance was verified by functional and performance testing.
There are no changes to packaging compared to the predicate device. Therefore, the original testing on the predicate devices applies to the subject devices and additional packaging validation testing was not required.
L. Conclusions:
Where differences were identified between the subject and predicate devices, a risk assessment was completed to determine if the difference would result in new safety or efficacy concerns. As appropriate, previous bench and laboratory testing was evaluated for applicability and either the rationale for no impact was documented or verification and validation was repeated as required.
Based on the results of the risk assessments and associated bench and laboratory testing, the subject and predicate devices are substantially equivalent and there are no new safety or efficacy concerns. As confirmed through the results of bench and lab testing, the subject device and predicate device share the same intended use, basic technological characteristics, and performance characteristics.
