Intended Use

The PVS 1600 Synchro® 0.010" Neuro Guidewire series of products is intended for neurovascular use. It can be used to selectively introduce and position catheters and other interventional devices within the neurovasculature. This device should be used only by physicians trained in percutaneous, intravascular techniques and procedures.

Device Story

PVS 1600 Synchro 0.010" Neuro Guidewire is a sterile, single-use device designed for navigating small, tortuous neurovasculature. It features a shapeable distal tip, Nitinol construction, and a lubricious coating. A platinum marker coil at the distal tip enables fluoroscopic visualization. The wire is torquable to facilitate navigation. It is supplied with a torque device and a guidewire introducer (neither intended to enter the body). Used in clinical settings by physicians trained in percutaneous, intravascular procedures to position catheters and interventional devices. The device aids in diagnostic and interventional neurovascular procedures, potentially improving access to distal anatomy.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only. Verification included dimensional inspection, fatigue assessment, tip flexibility, tip shaping, tensile strength, guidewire compatibility, torsional strength, torqueability, and corrosion resistance per ISO 11070:1998. Biocompatibility verified per ISO 10993-1 for short-duration (<24 hours) blood contact.

Technological Characteristics

0.010" OD guidewire; Nitinol tip; platinum marker coil; lubricious coating on distal segment. Dimensions: 180-300cm length; 35-65cm Nitinol tip length. Flexibility ranges from standard (stiff) to flex (soft). Sterilization: sterile, single-use. Biocompatibility: ISO 10993-1. Performance standards: ISO 11070:1998.

Indications for Use

Indicated for neurovascular use in patients requiring selective introduction and positioning of catheters and interventional devices within the neurovasculature. For use by physicians trained in percutaneous, intravascular techniques.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A catheter guide wire is a coiled wire that is designed to fit inside a percutaneous catheter for the purpose of directing the catheter through a blood vessel.

Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The device, when it is a torque device that is manually operated, non-patient contacting, and intended to manipulate non-cerebral vascular guide wires, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 870.9.
