Intended Use
The TracStar LDP Large Distal Platform is indicated for the introduction of interventional devices into the peripheral, coronary, and neuro vasculature. The Zoom 88 Large Distal Platform and Zoom 88 Large Distal Platform Support are indicated for the introduction of interventional devices into the peripheral, coronary, and neuro vasculature.
Device Description
The Imperative Care Large Distal Platform (LDP) Catheters include the Zoom™ 88 Large Distal Platform, Zoom™ 88 Large Distal Platform Support, and TracStar™ LDP Large Distal Platform. The LDP Catheters are 0.038" diameter 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.
More Information

Not Found

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

No.
The device is a guide catheter used to introduce other interventional devices, not to treat a medical condition directly.

No

This device is described as a guide catheter used to introduce interventional devices, not to diagnose a condition. While it has a radiopaque marker for visualization, its primary function is delivery, not diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly details a physical catheter with various material components (metal coils/braids, medical grade polymers, hydrophilic coating, radiopaque marker) and accessories (rotating hemostasis valve). This indicates a hardware-based medical device, not a software-only one.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body.
  • Device Function: The description clearly states that this device is a guide catheter used for introducing interventional devices into the peripheral, coronary, and neuro vasculature. This is an invasive procedure performed inside the body.
  • Lack of Specimen Analysis: There is no mention of this device being used to analyze any biological specimens. Its purpose is to facilitate the delivery of other devices within the body.

Therefore, based on the provided information, this device is a medical device used for interventional procedures within the body, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

The Zoom 88 Large Distal Platform and Zoom 88 Large Distal Platform Support 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 devices are the Imperative Care LDP Catheters cleared under K212224. The predicate and subject devices share the same intended use, basic technological characteristics, and the same performance characteristics, demonstrated through bench and laboratory testing as shown in Table 1. Modifications to the predicate include minor dimensional modifications for a line extension and manufacturing process improvements.

I. Biocompatibility Testing:

There are no changes to patient contacting 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 1x10 6 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".

K. Shelf Life and Packaging:

Accelerated aging testing based on ASTM F1980 was previously conducted to verify packaged device performance of the predicate LDP Catheters. The subject LDP Catheters undergo the same packaging and sterilization processing as the predicate LDP Catheters. The new Zoom 88 Large Distal Platform Support Catheter has the same general design, the same raw materials, manufacturing processes and manufacturing aids as the predicate LDP Catheters. Verification testing of the subject LDP Catheters followed the same test methods as the predicate LDP Catheters. Therefore, aging data from the predicate LDP Catheters is applicable for the subject LDP Catheters and additional shelf-life testing was not required.

There are no changes to the packaging compared to the predicate LDP Catheters. Therefore, the original testing on the predicate LDP Catheters applies to the subject LDP Catheters 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 effectiveness concerns. As appropriate, previous bench and laboratory testing was

9

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 effectiveness concerns. The subject device and predicate device share the same intended use, basic technological characteristics, and performance characteristics.
