The VesPenetrator®, VesTraveler® Coronary Dilatation Balloon Catheters are indicated for: · balloon dilatation of the stenotic portion of a coronary artery or bypass graft stenosis in patients evidencing coronary ischemia for the purpose of improving myocardial perfusion · balloon dilatation of a coronary artery occlusion for the treatment of acute myocardial infarction The VexPander® Coronary Dilatation Balloon Catheters are indicated for: · balloon dilatation of the stenotic portion of a coronary artery or bypass graft stenosis in patients evidencing coronary ischemia for the purpose of improving myocardial perfusion · balloon dilatation of a coronary artery occlusion for the treatment of acute myocardial infarction · in-stent restenosis · post-delivery expansion of balloon expandable coronary stents
Device Description
The Coronary Dilatation Balloon Catheter (VesPenetrator®, VesTraveler® and VexPander®) is a percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) is indicated for balloon dilatation of the stenotic portion of a coronary artery. Balloon diameters ranged from 1.5mm to 4.0mm. The balloon is made of Nylon material with a rated burst pressure of 16 atmospheres (atm) for both VesPenetrator and VesTraveler, and 18atm for VexPander. The proximal shaft of the catheter is composed of a female luer connector bonded to a PTFE coated stainless steel tube. The proximal shaft joins with a smooth transition to a distal shaft composed of an outer tube of nylon or Pebax and a tri-extrusion inner tube with a balloon welded to both tubes at the distal tip. Two radiopaque platinum marker bands are positioned within the balloon shoulders. The inner tube accepts a standard 0.014 inch guidewire. The guide wire enters the catheter's tip and advances coaxially out the distal Rx port, thereby allowing both coaxial guidance and rapid exchange of catheter with a single standard length guide wire. Two marked sections of 5mm length each located on the proximal shaft indicate catheter position relative to the tip of the brachial artery or the guide tube of the femoral artery.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the mechanical properties and function of a balloon catheter for angioplasty. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any data-driven analytical capabilities.

Yes
The device is indicated for "balloon dilatation of the stenotic portion of a coronary artery or bypass graft stenosis in patients evidencing coronary ischemia for the purpose of improving myocardial perfusion" and "balloon dilatation of a coronary artery occlusion for the treatment of acute myocardial infarction", which are therapeutic actions.

No

Explanation: The device is a balloon catheter used for dilatation of coronary arteries, which is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic one. Its purpose is to treat stenosis or occlusion, not to identify or characterize medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly details physical components like a balloon made of Nylon, a stainless steel tube, and radiopaque marker bands, indicating it is a physical medical device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Description: The description clearly states that the Coronary Dilatation Balloon Catheter is a percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) device. This is an invasive medical device used to physically open narrowed or blocked coronary arteries.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to perform balloon dilatation within the coronary artery or bypass graft, which is a surgical procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Lack of Mention of Samples: There is no mention of the device being used to test samples taken from the body.

Therefore, the device described is a therapeutic medical device used for a surgical procedure, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

§ 870.5100 Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty (PTCA) Catheter.

(a)
Standard PTCA Catheter —(1)Identification. A PTCA catheter is a device that operates on the principle of hydraulic pressurization applied through an inflatable balloon attached to the distal end. A PTCA balloon catheter has a single or double lumen shaft. The catheter features a balloon of appropriate compliance for the clinical application, constructed from a polymer. The balloon is designed to uniformly expand to a specified diameter and length at a specific pressure as labeled, with well characterized rates of inflation and deflation and a defined burst pressure. The device generally features a type of radiographic marker to facilitate fluoroscopic visualization of the balloon during use. A PTCA catheter is intended for balloon dilatation of a hemodynamically significant coronary artery or bypass graft stenosis in patients evidencing coronary ischemia for the purpose of improving myocardial perfusion. A PTCA catheter may also be intended for the treatment of acute myocardial infarction; treatment of in-stent restenosis (ISR) and/or post-deployment stent expansion.(2)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special control for this device is “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document for Certain Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty (PTCA) Catheters.” See § 870.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.(b)
Cutting/scoring PTCA Catheter —(1)Identification. A cutting/scoring PTCA catheter is a balloon-tipped catheter with cutting/scoring elements attached, which is used in those circumstances where a high pressure balloon resistant lesion is encountered. A cutting/scoring PTCA catheter is intended for the treatment of hemodynamically significant coronary artery stenosis for the purpose of improving myocardial perfusion. A cutting/scoring PTCA catheter may also be indicated for use in complex type C lesions or for the treatment of in-stent restenosis.(2)
Classification. Class III (premarket approval). As of May 28, 1976, an approval under section 515 of the act is required before this device may be commercially distributed. See § 870.3.

4. Device Description Summary

The Coronary Dilatation Balloon Catheter (VesPenetrator®, VesTraveler® and VexPander®) is a percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) is indicated for balloon dilatation of the stenotic portion of a coronary artery. Balloon diameters ranged from 1.5mm to 4.0mm. The balloon is made of Nylon material with a rated burst pressure of 16 atmospheres (atm) for both VesPenetrator and VesTraveler, and 18atm for VexPander. The proximal shaft of the catheter is composed of a female

luer connector bonded to a PTFE coated stainless steel tube. The proximal shaft joins with a smooth transition to a distal shaft composed of an outer tube of nylon or Pebax and a tri-extrusion inner tube with a balloon welded to both tubes at the distal tip. Two radiopaque platinum marker bands are positioned within the balloon shoulders. The inner tube accepts a standard 0.014 inch guidewire. The guide wire enters the catheter's tip and advances coaxially out the distal Rx port, thereby allowing both coaxial guidance and rapid exchange of catheter with a single standard length guide wire. Two marked sections of 5mm length each located on the proximal shaft indicate catheter position relative to the tip of the brachial artery or the guide tube of the femoral artery.

5. Intended Use/ Indications for Use
