The Micrus Microcatheter is intended to assist in the delivery of diagnostic agents, such as contrast media, and therapeutic agents such as occlusion coils, into peripheral, coronary, and neuro vasculature.
Device Story
Micrus Microcatheter is an intravascular diagnostic/therapeutic catheter. Components include flexible shaft with Teflon liner, stainless steel wire reinforcement, Pebax outer jacket, atraumatic distal tip with two radiopaque marker bands, and standard luer hub. Distal 100cm features hydrophilic coating. Device used by clinicians to navigate peripheral, coronary, and neuro vasculature to deliver contrast media or embolic coils. Radiopaque markers facilitate visualization of tip position during placement. Device functions as a conduit for interventional procedures.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only.
Technological Characteristics
Flexible shaft with Teflon liner; stainless steel wire reinforcement; Pebax outer jacket; hydrophilic coating on distal 100cm; two radiopaque marker bands; standard luer hub. Intravascular diagnostic catheter (Class II, 870.1200, DQO).
Indications for Use
Indicated for delivery of diagnostic agents (contrast media) and therapeutic agents (occlusion coils) into peripheral, coronary, and neuro vasculature.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An intravascular diagnostic catheter is a device used to record intracardiac pressures, to sample blood, and to introduce substances into the heart and vessels. Included in this generic device are right-heart catheters, left-heart catheters, and angiographic catheters, among others.

Dear Mr. Christensen:
Re:
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 (QS) 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.
