Intended Use
The EKOS Peripheral Infusion System is intended for the controlled and selective infusion of physician-specified fluids, including thrombolytics, into the peripheral vasculature.
Device Story
The EKOS Peripheral Infusion System is an infusion catheter system designed to deliver ultrasound energy via a transducer element at the distal catheter tip. It is used to deliver physician-specified fluids or agents into the peripheral vasculature. The device is operated by clinicians in a clinical setting. By delivering ultrasound energy during the infusion process, the system facilitates the delivery of therapeutic agents. The healthcare provider uses the system to manage fluid delivery, potentially improving the efficacy of thrombolytic therapy in peripheral vascular applications.
Clinical Evidence
Preclinical bench and animal studies were conducted. These studies demonstrated that the device performance meets design specifications and is safe and effective for its intended use. No human clinical trial data is reported.
Technological Characteristics
Infusion catheter system featuring a distal tip transducer element for ultrasound energy delivery. Designed for controlled, selective fluid infusion into peripheral vasculature.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring controlled and selective infusion of physician-specified fluids, including thrombolytics, into the peripheral vasculature.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An embolectomy catheter is a balloon-tipped catheter that is used to remove thromboemboli, i.e., blood clots which have migrated in blood vessels from one site in the vascular tree to another.

Dear Ms. Kersten:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807): labeling (21 CFR Part 801): good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050. This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4646.
