Intended Use

The Amplatz Goose Neck Snare is a Class II device intended for use in the cardiovascular system or hollow viscous to retrieve and manipulate foreign objects. Manipulation procedures include indwelling venous catheter repositioning, indwelling venous catheter fibrin sheath stripping, and central venous access venipuncture procedure assistance.

Device Description

The Amplatz Goose Neck Snare consists of a braided nitinol loop attached to a solid core nitinol guidewire. The plane of the loop is perpendicular to the host wire. The loop is covered with a gold-plated tungsten coil to enhance radiopaque. The shaft of the snare consists of a solid continuous Nitinol core wire shaft. The loop snare is delivered in a multi-purpose catheter. The catheter has a radiopaque marker band at its distal tip. The package configuration consists of a compact spiral configuration, using hoops to contain the snare and catheter. These spiral hoops are then double pouched in Tyvek/mylar pouches.

AI/ML Overview

The provided 510(k) summary for the Amplatz Goose Neck Snare (K972511) does not contain a detailed study report that includes acceptance criteria and performance data in the format requested.

The document states: "The Amplatz Goose Neck Snare received clearance for market based on functional and safety testing detailed in the original premarket notification K901502." This means the detailed study information regarding acceptance criteria and performance would be found in the K901502 submission, which is not provided in this document.

Therefore, I cannot populate the requested table and answer the study-specific questions based on the information given. The current document is a summary of the 510(k) application for a new version of the device, referencing the original clearance for the testing.

The document focuses on establishing substantial equivalence to a predicate device (MICROVENA Amplatz Goose Neck Snare, K901502) based on design and intended use, rather than presenting new performance data from a specific study for K972511.

Dear Ms. Colley:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to 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 (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions aqainst misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major requlations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Requlation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Druq Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
