Intended Use
The Bard® InlayOptima™ Ureteral Stent is indicated to relieve obstruction in a variety of benign, malignant and post-traumatic conditions in the ureter. These conditions include stones and/or stone fragments or other ureteral obstructions such as those associated with ureteral stricture, malignancy of abdominal organs, retroperitoneal fibrosis or ureteral trauma, or in association with Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL). The stent may be placed using endoscopic surgical techniques or percutaneously using standard radiographic technique. It is recommended that the indwelling time not exceed 365 days. The stent is not intended as a permanent indwelling device.
Device Story
Bard® InLayOptima™ Ureteral Stent is a coated, double-pigtail ureteral stent designed to relieve ureteral obstructions. It includes a monofilament suture loop to facilitate removal. The device is placed by physicians using endoscopic or percutaneous radiographic techniques. It functions as a passive drainage conduit to bypass obstructions. The stent is supplied with a push catheter with a radiopaque tip and a pigtail straightener. In vitro testing indicates reduced accumulation of urine calcium salts compared to controls. The device is intended for temporary use, not exceeding 365 days.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. In vitro testing demonstrated reduced accumulation of urine calcium salts compared to a control. No clinical data provided.
Technological Characteristics
Stent material: Polycarbonate-based polyurethane. Coating: Hydrophobic polymer. Suture: USP Medical Grade black nylon monofilament (3-0). Push catheter: High Density Polyethylene (HDPE). Radiopaque marker band included. Sizes: 4.7 Fr, 6 Fr, 7 Fr, 8 Fr. Pigtail geometry: 360° curvature + 45° overlap. Sterilization: Sterile. Standards: FDA draft 'Guidance for the Content of Premarket Notifications for Ureteral Stents' (1993) and draft ASTM F.04.70.01 (1997).
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring relief of ureteral obstruction due to benign, malignant, or post-traumatic conditions, including stones, stone fragments, ureteral stricture, abdominal malignancy, retroperitoneal fibrosis, ureteral trauma, or in association with ESWL. Not for permanent use; indwelling time limit 365 days.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A ureteral stent is a tube-like implanted device that is inserted into the ureter to provide ureteral rigidity and allow the passage of urine. The device may have finger-like protrusions or hooked ends to keep the tube in place. It is used in the treatment of ureteral injuries and ureteral obstruction.

- D. Device Description: The Bard® InLayOptima™ Ureteral Stent and Multi-Length Ureteral Stent is a coated, double pigtail ureteral stent with a monofilament suture loop attached to aid in stent removal. The stent is available in two forms: a single size or a customizable multi-length size. The following items are included with each stent:
- 1 Ureteral Stent with Suture
- 1 Push Catheter with Radiopaque Tip
- ー Pigtail Straightener
- Guidewire* (Optional) 1
- *Note: a 4.7 Fr stent is compatible with a .035" guidewire and a 6.7 and 8 Fr stents are compatible with a .038" guidewire.
In vitro testing conducted on the Bard® InLayOptima™ Ureteral Stents and Multi-Length Ureteral Stents indicate reduced accumulation of urine calcium salts as assayed by calcium when compared to a control. Correlation of in vitro data to clinical outcome has not been established.
