Intended Use

The LuMend Frontrunner™ CTO Coronary Catheter is intended to facilitate the intra-luminal placement of conventional guide wires beyond stenotic lesions (including chronic total occlusions) prior to PTCA or stent intervention.

Device Story

LuMend Frontrunner™ is a sterile, single-use percutaneous coronary catheter; used to facilitate guide wire placement across stenotic lesions/CTOs. Device features handle assembly with integral rotator, side port for flushing, and radiopaque blunt-shaped distal tip assembly with bilateral hinged tip pieces. No guide wire lumen present. Physician operates device by manually shaping flexible distal shaft and using handle rotator for controlled torquing; handle lever allows manual adjustment of distal tip size. Device functions by bluntly dissecting stenotic tissue to create path for conventional guide wire. Once lesion crossed, device removed and replaced with conventional guide wire for subsequent PTCA/stent intervention. Used in clinical setting by physicians to improve success of crossing complex lesions; benefits patient by enabling access to occluded vessels otherwise difficult to navigate.

Clinical Evidence

Clinical studies were conducted to demonstrate safety and effectiveness. Bench testing included in vitro tensile, torque strength, torqueability, tip flexibility, coating adherence/integrity, biocompatibility, and catheter compatibility per FDA's Coronary and Cerebrovascular Guidance Document (1995). All results met internal specifications and external standards.

Technological Characteristics

Percutaneous catheter; sterile, single-use. Features: handle assembly with rotator, side port, radiopaque blunt-shaped distal tip with bilateral hinged pieces, pull-wire for tip deflection. Materials: standard coronary catheter materials. Connectivity: none. Energy: manual mechanical operation. Sterilization: not specified.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) who have stenotic lesions, including chronic total occlusions (CTO), where facilitation of guide wire placement is necessary prior to PTCA or stent deployment.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A percutaneous catheter is a device that is introduced into a vein or artery through the skin using a dilator and a sheath (introducer) or guide wire.

Spectranetics Support Catheter Spectranetics Corp. - 510(k) K991059 - 2. Magnum-Meier™ Recanalization Guidewire Schneider AG / Pfizer Hospital Prod. -510(k) K911547 - 3.

A handle lever provides manual adjustment of the size of the tip assembly, and the handle rotator provides rotational control for the shaft and distal tip assembly. The distal assembly consists of a set of bilateral hinged tip pieces. The Frontrunner catheter does not have a guide wire lumen. Guidance and tracking of the catheter through the coronary vasculature is accomplished by selective manual shaping of the flexible distal shaft, and controlled torquing of the handle rotator. #### Intended Use: The LuMend Frontrunner™ CTO Coronary Catheter is intended to facilitate the intra-luminal placement of conventional guide wires beyond stenotic lesions (including chronic total occlusions) prior to PTCA or stent intervention. #### Comparison to Predicate Device(s): The LuMend Frontrunner™ CTO Coronary Catheter is substantially equivalent to a combination of the Spectranetics Support Catheter (K991059), the Schneider AG / Pfizer Hospital Products Magnum-Meier™ Recanalization Guidewire (K911547) and Clyde™ Coronary Guidewire (K970528) and the C.R. Bard, Inc. USCI Adjustable Tip Guide Wire (K884647). The LuMend Frontrunner™ is substantially equivalent to the Clyde™ Coronary Guidewire (K970528) in terms of intended use. The Clyde Guide wire is intented to reach ond cross stenotic lesions prior to use of PTCA and / or stent therapeutic devices. The LuMend Frontrunner is intended to facilitate the intra-luminal placement of guide-wires beyond stenotic lesions. In the case of the Clyde™ device, once the lesion has been crossed, a balloon silation catheter may be immediately introduced along the guide wire. In the cose of the LuMend Frontrumer™, the device must be removed and replaced with a conventional guide wire prior to insertion of a PTCA device. The LuMend Frontrunner™ device is substantially equivalent to the USCI Adjustable Tip Guide Wire in terms of the incorporation of a "pull wire" in the internal lumen used to deflect the distal tip of the catheter. Both the USCI Adjustable Tip Guide Wire and the LuMer of Grontrumer devices provide the ability to deflect the distal tip in situ. The Frontrumer™ device is substantially equivalent to the Magnum Meier™ Recanalization Guide Wire in that it provides a spherically shaped distal tip to bluntly dissect steenotic tissue. The Magnum Meier instructions for use explicitly discusses the use of the guide wire in conjunction with a supporting catheter and advancing the recanalization wire either by itself or along with the catheter. The option of expanding the size of the Frontrumer distal tip is similar in affect to exchanging smaller guide wires for larger diameter wires. The LuMend Frontrunner™ is similar in terms of shape, size, materials and construction to common coronary catheters used to provide guide wire support. {2}------------------------------------------------ # (Continued) # In Vitro, In Situ and In Vivo Test Data: Design analysis, in vitro and in vivo data confirm that basic functional characteristics are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices cited. Device evaluation consisted of testing specified in FDA's Coronary and Cerebrovascular Guidance Document (January 1995) and included in vitro tensile, torque strength, torqueability, tip flexibility, coating adherence/integrity, biocompatibility and catheter compatibility. All data fell well within both internal specification requirements, as well as external standard requirements and predicate performance expectations. In addition to the above testing, a series of clinical studies have demonstrated substantial equivalence in terms of device safety and effectiveness . ## Summary: Based upon the product technical information, intended use, performance and biocompatibility information provided in this pre-market notification, the LuMend Frontrunner™ has been shown to be substantially equivalent to currently marketed predicate devices. {3}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/3/Picture/1 description: The image is a black and white logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
