Intended Use

The pREBOA-PRO Catheter is intended for temporary partial or complete occlusion of large vessels and blood pressure monitoring including patients requiring emergency control of hemorrhage.

Device Description

The pREBOA-PRO™ Catheter is a large vessel occlusion catheter with a dedicated lumen for pressure monitoring. The device consists of a semi-compliant balloon, in-line pressure relief valve (safety valve), atraumatic distal tip (P-tip™), dual lumen catheter shaft and a hub with extension lines to provide access to each lumen.

The pREBOA-PRO™ Catheter is designed with flow channels to enable precise, smooth control of inflation and deflation of the balloon. Instructions for how to titrate the balloon for partial occlusion, if so desired by the clinician, are included in the Instructions for Use.

The device has an effective length of 72 cm and is compatible with 7 Fr introducer sheaths as shown in the compatibility section of the IFU. The catheter has a unibody design and is intended to be placed and advanced without a guidewire. In addition, the catheter is compatible with guidewires up to 0.025" that may be used to facilitate subsequent vascular procedures after a REBOA procedure. An orange peel-away sheath is preloaded on the catheter shaft covering the balloon to ease insertion of the catheter's P-tip™ into an introducer sheath hemostasis valve. A catheter shaft provides appropriate stiffness with a distal tip (P-tip™) designed for atraumatic advancement of the catheter in a blood vessel. Pad printed marks on both sides of the outer catheter shaft indicate distance to the center of the balloon as well as average insertion depth ranges to the center of aortic Zones 1 and 3 to facilitate proper placement. Radiopaque platinum iridium marker bands are located at the functional ends of the balloon to facilitate and visualize accurate balloon placement when used with imaging. The proximal end of the catheter has a hub and extension lines. The arterial line lumen is used to monitor blood pressure above the balloon. Below the balloon core aortic pressure monitoring is possible through the side arm of the sheath. The balloon lumen is used to inflate and deflate the balloon as needed. An in-line safety valve is connected to the balloon lumen stopcock and is designed to help prevent over-inflation of the balloon. The stopcocks provide control to each of the catheter's two lumens. The orange peel-away sheath can be separated from the catheter shaft after insertion if needed. The device is a single-use, sterile device.

Indications for Use

The pREBOA-PRO™ Catheter is intended for temporary partial or complete occlusion of large vessels and blood pressure monitoring including patients requiring emergency control of hemorrhage.

Comparison with the Predicate Device

The modified pREBOA-PRO™ Catheter is identical to the predicate unmodified device with the exception of the Instructions for use which have been modified as follows:

  • Indication for Use statement has been modified to include clarifying text regarding the degree of occlusion (partial or complete)
  • Labeling is modified to include above and below the balloon core aortic blood pressure reference values.
  • Added precaution statement regarding available data on maximum complete and partial occlusion durations.

Performance Data

A consensus algorithm based on limited clinical data and experience¹ combined with multiple swine studies²,³,⁴ using pREBOA-PRO Catheter have provided learnings to clinicians about partial occlusion blood pressures and occlusion durations. The key finding in the swine studies

Page 7

Page 3 of 3

regarding distal ischemia was that at 2 hours of partial occlusion in Zone 1, with below balloon systolic blood pressure (SBP) of 20 mmHg and pulsatile flow, there were no physiological impacts below the balloon that would require surgical intervention. In contrast, clinical guidelines⁵ have established that increased caution should be exercised when complete aortic occlusion times approach 30 minutes in Zone 1 and 60 minutes in Zone 3.

Bench test results demonstrated that the pREBOA-PRO Catheter was able to achieve and maintain targeted below balloon blood pressure (> 20 mmHg) for partial occlusion for a duration of 2 hours. Additionally, the bench testing demonstrated that the device could maintain partial occlusion after being subjected to simulated positive and negative physiological disturbances (i.e. changes in heart rate and aortic diameter) which are typical during severe shock and on-going resuscitation.

Conclusions

Available evidence supports that the pREBOA-PRO™ Catheter is substantially equivalent with the predicate.
