Intended Use
The XABO Catheters are used for cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shunting.
Device Description
The XABO Catheters are manufactured using barium sulfate fillcone elastomer and are impregnated with clindamycin hydrochloride and rifampicin designed to be released over time from the exterior and inner lumen surface once implanted. The XABO Ventricular Catheters will be offered in 18 cm in length with an inner diameter of 1.2 mm and an outer diameter of 2.5 mm. Lengths are marked in 1 cm intervals starting from the catheter tip, thus enabling the surgeon to qauge the depth of penetration of the catheter into the lateral ventricle. The proximal end of the catheter has 16 flow holes around the catheter circumference. Components supplied with the XABO Ventricular Catheter include a pre-loaded stainless steel stylet and depending on the confiquration may contain a deflector. The XABO Peritoneal Catheters measure 60 cm or 120 cm in length, 1.2 mm in inner diameter, and 2.5 mm in outer diameter. There are no length markers or wall slits on the tip is open ended. The catheter may be trimmed to the proper length. The XABO Catheters are designed to articulate with existing Miethke Shunt Systems, such as the M.blue Adjustable Shunt System. Miethke Shunt System GAV 2.0 and SA 2.0 Valves, proGAV 2.0 Adjustable Shunt System miniNAV valve, and the Miethke Shunt System (DSV, connectors, and reservoirs) cleared by FDA (K192266/K190174/K161853/K141687/K110206/K030698/K011030).
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the material properties, drug release, physical dimensions, and compatibility with existing shunt systems. There is no mention of any computational analysis, data processing, or learning algorithms.

Yes
The device is impregnated with clindamycin hydrochloride and rifampicin, designed to be released over time, which has a therapeutic effect.

No

This device is described as a catheter used for cerebrospinal fluid shunting, which is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly details physical components made of barium sulfate fillcone elastomer, stainless steel, and potentially a deflector, which are implanted into the body. This is a hardware device, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shunting." This is a surgical procedure performed in vivo (within the body) to drain excess CSF.
  • Device Description: The device is a catheter designed to be implanted in the body. It is made of materials suitable for implantation and is impregnated with drugs for release within the body.
  • Anatomical Site: The anatomical site is "cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)," which is within the body.
  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics (IVDs) are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health. They are used in vitro (outside the body).

This device is clearly designed for implantation and use within the body, not for testing samples outside the body.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Performance bench testing:
Testing was conducted in accordance with ISO 7197 (2006). Testing results confirm that the XABO Catheters meet performance specifications.

Zone of Inhibition, Drug Content, Drug Release Kinetic and Crush Resistance Comparison testing of the XABO Catheters and the predicate device show that they have the same characteristics.

MRI Safety Testing according to ASTM F2213, ASTM F2182 and ASTM FF2119 demonstrated that the deflector is MR Conditional in 3-Tesla Magnetic Resonance Imaging systems per ASTM F2503.

All testing was performed on the worst-case final finished device.

Biocompatibility testing:
A biocompatibility evaluation was condance with ISO 1099-1 and "Use of International Standard ISO 10993-1, Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices – Part 1: Evaluation and Testing within a Risk Management Process", as recognized by FDA. Biocompatibility testing included Cytotoxicity, Sensitization/Reactivity, Genotoxicity, Implantation, Acute Systemic Toxicity, Sub- Chronic, Hemolysis, and Pyrogenicity. Chronic systemic toxicity and carcinogenicity endpoints have been addressed by a chemical characterization (extractable and leachable studies).

A toxicological risk assessment evaluated the risk of chronic toxicity, and developmental and reproductive toxicity to patients associated with exposure to the extractable compounds to adult, pediatric an dneonatal patients.

The XABO Catheters and deflector are considered an implant device of permanent duration (>30 days). While the stylet is classified as indirect contact in the area of tissue/bone intended for less than 1 hour duration.

Conclusion:
Results of all testing confirm that the XABO Catheters as a component of a scepticism criteria for the specified shelf life, conform to applicable standard ISO 7179, and are equivalent in function to the predicate device, the Medtronic ARES Antibiotic-Impregnated Catheters.

Results of the conducted comparative performance testing confirm that the performance characteristics for both devices, the XABO Catheters and Medtronic ARES Antibiotic-Impregnated Catheters, are substantial equivalent.

Dear Kathy Racosky:

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 (the 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 available 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.

Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download).
