Intended Use
It is indicated for use in adult and adolescent populations to endoscopically dilate strictures of the alimentary tract.
Device Description
The 3-Stage Balloon Dilation Catheter can provide 3 different sizes and gradually increasing diameters through controlled radial expansion. The specific balloon size is printed on the label of each package and catheter. The 3-Stage Balloon Dilation Catheter is designed to pass through the working channel of the endoscope, and its guidewire cavity can accommodate a 0.035inches (0.89mm diameter) guidewire. In the package, a 0.035inches (0.89mm diameter) guidewire is pre-installed in the guidewire cavity. There is a guidewire locking device connected to the guide wire hole of the catheter. The locking device will be in the "OFF" (closed) position when it leaves the factory. Only when the switch of the locking device is in the "ON" position can it be pushed or moved forward. The guide wire is removed from the catheter. After turning the switch to the "OFF" position, the guide wire will be fixed in the catheter.

No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical and material properties, with no mention of AI/ML algorithms or data processing.

Yes
The device is indicated for endoscopically dilating strictures of the alimentary tract, which is a therapeutic intervention aimed at treating a medical condition.

No

The device is a treatment device, specifically a balloon dilation catheter used to dilate strictures. It does not perform any diagnostic function like detecting, analyzing, or identifying a medical condition.

No

The device description clearly details a physical medical device (a balloon dilation catheter) with mechanical components and features, not a software-only product.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "endoscopically dilate strictures of the alimentary tract." This is a therapeutic procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical device (a balloon catheter) used for mechanical dilation. It does not describe any components or processes for analyzing biological samples (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide diagnostic information.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of:
    • Analyzing samples in vitro (outside the body).
    • Providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status.
    • Reagents, calibrators, or controls typically associated with IVD tests.

In summary, this device is a therapeutic medical device used for a physical intervention, not a diagnostic device used for analyzing samples to provide information about a patient's condition.

Different - Minimum working channel

The minimum working channel for proposed device is different from the predicate device K112994. The proposed 2.8mm working channel is same as the prodicate device, while the proposed 2.0mm working channel is not overed by the predicate device. The reason for this difference is that the device balloon diameter for the proposed device and predicate device are not same. The different size will be selected by physician per patient's condition and this difference does not affect intended use. Therefore, this difference will not affectiveness of the proposed device.

Different – Diameter of balloon

Compared with predicate devices, the balloon diameter of proposed device has a 45/6 specification, which is suitable for some very narrow parts and is more suitable for clinical needs. The difference does not raise different questions regarding its safety and effectiveness.

Different - Working Length

The working length for proposed device is different from the predicate device K112994. The proposed 1800mm specification is also included by the predicate device. While the proposed 900mm and 1200mm specifications are

8

shorter than the predicate device 1800 specifications,2000mm specification are shorter than the predicate device 2400 specifications. The different length will be selected by physician per patient's condition and this difference does not affect intended use. In addition, the performance tests were conducted on proposed device and predicate device, and the test result does not significant difference. Therefore, this difference will not affect the safety and effectiveness of the proposed device.

Different - Performance

We conduct bench performance for our proposed device and the predicate device, please refer to Section 24 of this submission, the test results show that our proposed device is substantial equivalence with the predicate device.

Different-Biocompatibility

The patient contact material for the proposed device is different from the predicate device.The material of the Guide head and catheter that is proposed device to contact the human body is PA, and the material of the Guide head and catheter that is predicate device to contact the human body is - Pebax, Actually PA and Pebax are both nylon. However, biocompatibility test has been conducted on the proposed device and the test result does not show any adverse effect. Therefore, this difference will not raise any safety issues.

9. Substantially Equivalent (SE) Conclusion

Based on the comparison and analysis above, the proposed device, 3-Stage Balloon Dilation Catheter, is determined to be Substantially Equivalent (SE) to the predicate device K112994.
