Intended Use

The EkoSonicTM Endovascular System is indicated for the:
· Ultrasound facilitated, controlled and selective intravascular infusion of physician-specified fluids, including thrombolytics, for the treatment of pulmonary embolism and/or deep vein thrombosis
· Controlled and selective infusion of physician-specified fluids, into the pulmonary arteries and or peripheral vasculature.

The EKOS+ Endovascular System is indicated for the:
· Ultrasound facilitated, controlled and selective intravascular infusion of physician-specified fluids, including thrombolytics, for the treatment of pulmonary embolism and/or deep vein thrombosis
· Controlled and selective infusion of physician-specified fluids, including thrombolytics, into the pulmonary arteries and/ or peripheral vasculature.

Device Description

The sterile, single-use EkoSonic Endovascular Device consists of an Infusion Catheter (IC) and an Ultrasonic Core (USC). The USC fits within the central lumen of the IC. Together, they are used to deliver physician-specified fluids and ultrasound energy to the treatment zone.

The sterile, single-use EKQS+ Endovascular Device consists of an Infusion Catheter (IC),and an Ultrasonic Core (USC). The USC fits within the central lumen of the IC. Together, they are used to deliver physician-specified fluids and ultrasound energy to the treatment zone.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study that proves a device meets such criteria in the context of AI/ML performance metrics. Instead, it is a 510(k) premarket notification for the EkoSonic Endovascular Device and EKOS+ Endovascular Device, which are medical devices for intravascular infusion, not AI/ML software.

The document discusses expanding the Indications for Use to include Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT), stating that this change does not impact the technological characteristics of the device. It references a systematic literature review, including data from the ACCESS-PTS trial and CAVA studies, to support the inclusion of DVT in the indications for use.

Therefore, I cannot extract the requested information about acceptance criteria, reported device performance, sample sizes, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, ground truth types, or training set details as these are not relevant to the content of this document.

Dear Ambreen Athar:

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.

Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97).

lll. Predicate Devices

The proposed modification is to the Indications For Use for both the EkoSonic Endovascular Device (K191119) and EKOS PE Endovascular Device (K200648). The modification to the indications is to include Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT). A systematic literature review is presented to support the appropriateness of the change. There is no change to the design or manufacture of the device as a result of this change, therefore, the predicate devices are the current versions of the legally marketed devices. The predicate devices will be EkoSonic Endovascular Device (K191119) and the EKOS PE Endovascular Device (K200648).

VI. Comparison of Technological Characteristics with the Predicate Devices

{5}------------------------------------------------

{6}------------------------------------------------

There are no device modifications (individually or cumulatively) to the subject devices that impact the technological characteristics of the devices since the last 510(k) submission including:

  • Product specification requirements
  • Raw material composition or constituents .
  • . Product chemical composition or the physical and chemical properties
  • Device packaging (with the exception of BSC branding on the labels) ●

The only change is to the indications for use to include the DVT as a treatment and a change to the trade name of EKOS PE to EKOS+.

VII. Performance Data

Device testing was not required to support the change to the indications for use changes. There are no changes to the device technological characteristics. The devices are, therefore, substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

VIII. Clinical Data

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

A systematic literature review, including data from the ACCESS-PTS trial and CAVA studies, were used to support the inclusion of DVT to the indications for use with both the EkoSonic Endovascular and EKOS+ Endovascular devices.

IX. Conclusions

The EkoSonic Endovascular Device and the EKOS+ Endovascular Device are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. The expansion to the indications for use and the change to the trade name do not impact the technological characteristics for the system.
