The catheter lumen is used for inflation of the balloon via a syringe connected to the gate valve. A removable stainless-steel stylet is provided with each catheter to maintain the straight catheter shape and to ensure that the lumen remains opened during storage or sterilization of the product. The device is supplied sterile and for single use only. This Traditional 510(k) is submitted to request clearance for changes to the indications for use statement. The proposed changes to the indications for use statement do not alter the intended use of the Fogarty Occlusion Catheter (i.e., temporary vessel occlusion).

The EV1000 Clinical Platform and the ClearSight™ Finger Cuffs are indicated for patients over 18 years of age in which the balance between. cardiac function, fluid status, and vascular resistance needs continuous assessment. In addition, the non-invasive system is indicated for use in patients with co-morbidities for which hemodynamic optimization is desired and invasive measurements are difficult. The EV1000 Clinical Platform and the ClearSight™ finger cuffs noninvasively measures blood pressure and associated hemodynamic parameters.

The EV1000 Clinical Platform with ClearSight Finger Cuffs is a non- invasive monitor that enables the continuous assessment of a patient's hemodynamic function based on the scientific method of Peňáz - Wesseling. The device measures continuous non-invasive blood pressure (Systolic, Diastolic, and Mean Arterial Pressure) and pulse rate. Cardiac Output and other hemodynamic parameters are derived from the blood pressure waveform. The EV1000 ClearSight™ System consists of a monitor, a pump-unit, a pressure controller that is worn on the wrist, and ClearSight Finger cuffs. The EV1000 Pump-unit receives incoming signals from the pressure controller and the finger cuffs. The algorithms embedded in the Pump- Unit and the pressure controller process signals from the finger cuffs and provide parameter calculations. The EV1000 Monitor is connected to the Pump-Unit via an Ethernet cable, and the Pump-unit is connected to the pressure controller via a RS485 port. The monitor is a touchscreen panel PC with a graphical user interface (GUI). The monitor displays the measured and calculated parameters from the Pump-Unit.

The Vigileo™ APCO/Oximetry Monitor is indicated for continuously measuring hemodynamic parameters such as cardiac output and oximetry to assess oxygen delivery and consumption. When connected to an Edwards oximetry catheter, the monitor measures oximetry in adults and pediatrics. The monitor also displays parameters, such as stroke volume and stroke volume variation, used to assess fluid status and vascular resistance. The Vigileo™ APCO/Oximetry Monitor may be used in all settings in which critical care is provided.

The Vigileo™ Arterial Pressure Cardiac Output (APCO)/Oximetry Monitor (Vigileo™ Monitor) is a microprocessor-based instrument.
