Intended Use
The Boston Scientific/Target Sentry Occlusion Balloon Catheter is intended for temporary intravascular occlusion. This device is not intended for use in coronary arteries. This device is not intended for use in the neurovasculature.
Device Description
The Sentry Occlusion Balloon Catheter consists of an over-the-wire catheter with a soft compliant balloon attached at the distal end. Radiopaque markers (located at the proximal and distal ends of the balloon) facilitate fluoroscopic visualization. The Sentry Occlusion Balloon Catheter has a single lumen shaft that is used with the 510(k) cleared Boston Scientific/Target Transend-010 guidewire (K964611) hydrophilic 0.010" guidewire) to occlude the distal segment of the central lumen and allow inflation of the balloon. To facilitate sealing of the central lumen for balloon inflation, the guidewire is advanced slightly beyond the distal tip of the catheter where the distal seal is located. There is a slight increase in resistance as the guidewire passes through the distal seal, and at this point the balloon can be inflated. The guidewire can be moved distally or proximally once beyond the distal tip (seal portion) of the catheter and still maintain a positive seal for inflating the balloon. The Sentry Occlusion Balloon Catheter has a HYDROLENE® hydrophilic exterior coating that reduces friction during manipulation. The device is manufactured in two sizes, one with a balloon length of 10 mm (nominal inflation diameter of 3.5 mm) and the other with a balloon length of 15 mm (nominal inflation diameter of 3.5 mm). The catheter portion of the device utilizes the construction of the 510(k) cleared Boston Scientific/Target FasTracker Infusion Catheter (K926243, K925813) and the Boston Scientific/Target Turbo Tracker Infusion Catheter (K960806). This construction provides a flexible and strong catheter shaft which facilitates tracking through tortuous vasculature and accessing the target vessel.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the mechanical and material properties of a balloon catheter, with no mention of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is described as an "Occlusion Balloon Catheter" intended for "temporary intravascular occlusion," which is a direct therapeutic action to block blood flow in a vessel.

No

Explanation: The device is intended for temporary intravascular occlusion, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one. While it uses fluoroscopic visualization for placement, this is for guidance during the interventional procedure rather than for diagnosing a condition.

No

The device description clearly details a physical catheter with a balloon, guidewire compatibility, radiopaque markers, and a hydrophilic coating. It also mentions manufacturing in two sizes and references predicate devices that are also physical catheters. There is no mention of software as the primary component or function.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "temporary intravascular occlusion." This is a therapeutic or interventional procedure performed within the body, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The description details a catheter with a balloon designed to be inserted into blood vessels for physical occlusion. This is a medical device used for treatment or intervention, not for analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any components or functions related to analyzing biological samples (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or providing diagnostic information based on such analysis.

IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device's function is purely mechanical and interventional.

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

Substantial equivalence is based on the fact that the Sentry Occlusion Balloon Catheter has similar technological characteristics and intended use as the predicate devices. The Sentry Occlusion Balloon Catheter has been evaluated through a series of in vitro functional tests and biocompatibility studies. The functional tests that have been conducted are:

  • visual
  • dimensional
  • cyclic fatigue
  • rupture volume and balloon bond integrity
  • balloon profile and compliance
  • balloon deflation time
  • balloon preparation
  • initial peak inflation
  • prox/mid junction tensile testing
  • hub/shaft tensile testing
  • radiopacity of markers
  • guidewire compatibility
  • chemical compatibility
  • tip stiffness test
    The results of the functional testing and additional tests on biocompatibility, shelf life, and sterilization support substantial equivalence to the predicate devices. Results of these tests, in conjunction with the substantial equivalence claims as outlined in the premarket notification, demonstrate that the Sentry Occlusion Balloon Catheter is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.

Section 4: Summary of Safety and Effectiveness cont.

The results of the functional testing and additional tests on biocompatibility, shelf life, and sterilization support substantial equivalence to the predicate devices. Results of these tests, in conjunction with the substantial equivalence claims as outlined in the premarket notification, demonstrate that the Sentry Occlusion Balloon Catheter is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.

Summary of Technological Characteristics Compared to the Predicate Device VI.

The comparison of the subject device to the predicate devices shows technological differences in dimensions, materials, and construction. The noted differences are:

  • The balloon material of the Sentry Occlusion Balloon Catheter is . Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) (synthetic rubber), while Boston Boston Scientific/Target Occlusion Balloon (K960832) and the Scientific/Meditech Occlusion (K781772) are latex rubber elastomer.
  • The Sentry Occlusion Balloon Catheter has an inflated balloon diameter of . 2.5 mm - 4.0 mm. This specification falls below the lowest specification of 5.0 mm -- 10.0 mm for the NDSB. With a smaller inflated balloon diameter, the Sentry Occlusion Balloon Catheter can be used in distal branches of the peripheral vasculature such as the popliteal artery, hepatic vessels, and mesenteric arteries.
  • The specifications for tip extension on the Sentry Occlusion Balloon . Catheter falls between 0 cm - 6 cm while the predicate devices have a specification of 0 cm - 4 cm. Although the overall length of the catheter remains within the parameters of the predicate devices, the specification for the tip of the subject device is longer by 2 cm.
  • . The Sentry Occlusion Balloon Catheter is different in construction than the predicate devices because it is an over-the-wire catheter. It is delivered over a guidewire that assists in delivery through tortuous vessels and also functions to seal the distal tip for balloon inflation. The predicate devices have sealed distal tips that do not allow the devices to track over a guidewire.

For these differences, functional and biocompatibility testing has been conducted on the Sentry Occlusion Balloon Catheter to demonstrate that these technological differences raise no new questions of safety and effectiveness. Other than these differences, all other aspects of the subject device are equivalent to, or fall within the specification ranges of the predicate devices.
