The EOCVC Catheters are indicated for hemodynamic monitoring through blood sampling, pressure monitoring, and oxygen saturation measurements. PediaSat Catheters are indicated for hemodynamic monitoring through blood sampling, pressure monitoring, and oxygen saturation measurements in adults and/or pediatric patients. The pressure injectable EOCVC Oligon catheters are indicated for short term (< 30 days) hemodynamic monitoring through blood sampling, infusion of solutions, continuous monitoring of oxygen saturation measurements, pressure injection of contrast media, and central venous pressure monitoring. The suture loop and box clamp are intended to be used to facilitate the suturing the catheter at the site of insertion. The dilator, included with each catheter, is indicated for enlarging the opening in a vessel for preparation of perculancous entry of the catheter.

The Edwards Oximetry Central Venous Catheter is a non-balloon catheter that provides the means for infusion of solutions, measuring pressure, and taking blood samples through the distal lumen (terminates at the catheter tip), the proximal lumen (terminates 7 cm proximal to the tip), and the medial lumen (terminates 5 cm proximal to the tip). Edwards Oximetry Central Venous Catheter also provides the means for continuously monitoring oxygen saturation using an Edwards Lifesciences oximetry monitor or compatible bedside module. The PediaSat oximetry catheters are non-balloon catheters that provide the means for infusion of solutions, measuring pressure, and taking blood samples. These catheters also provide the means for continuously monitoring oxygen saturation using an Edwards Lifesciences oximetry monitor or compatible bedside module. The EOCVC Oligon catheter is a non-balloon catheter that provides the means for infusion of solutions measuring pressure injecting contrast media, and taking blood samples through the distal lumen (terminates 7 cm proximate to the tip), and the medial lumen (terminates 5 cm proximal to the tip). The EOCVC Oligon catheter also provides the means for continuously monitoring oxygen saturation using an Edwards Lifesciences monitor and compatible bedside module. All catheters are manufactured with a polyurethane-based Oligon polymer (containing silver, platinum, and carbon black) which has antimicrobial properties. Oxygen saturation is monitored by fiberoptic reflectance spectrophotometry. The amount of light absorbed, refracted, and reflected depends on the relative amounts of oxygenated and deoxygenated hemoglobin in the blood. The PediaSat Oximetry Catheter is a 3 lumen catheter available with a diameter of 4.5 French (F) and 8 cm in length. The EOCVC Oximetry Catheters are 3 lumen catheters available with a diameter of 8.5F and in lengths of 16 and 20 cm. EOCVC and PediaSat catheters are manufactured from polyurethane. A suture loop and a specially molded box clamp are provided with each EOCVC (Oligon and non-Oligon) and PediaSat Oximetry Catheter to facilitate suturing of the catheter at the site of insertion. The suture loop and box clamp can be placed anywhere along the catheter body at the discretion of the clinician. The dilator, included with each catheter, is indicated for enlarging the opening in a vessel for preparation of percutaneous entry of the catheter. The EOCVC (Oligon and non-Oligon) and PediaSat Kits consist of accessories previously cleared for marketing as well as accessories that are the subject of this submission. This submission is for clearance of proposed modifications to the accessories (suture loop, box clamp and dilator) for use with the previously cleared EOCVC Oligon (K160645), PreSep (now EOCVC), and PediaSat (K053609) Oximetry Catheter Kits. Additional accessories are listed on table below.
