Intended Use

PORT-A-CATH® Systems with Dual Layer Catheter are indicated when patient therapy requires repeated vascular access for injection or infusion therapy and/or venous blood sampling. PORT-A-CATH® II Systems with Dual Layer Catheter are indicated when patient therapy requires repeated vascular access for injection or infusion therapy and/or venous blood sampling. ProPort® Systems with Dual Layer Catheter are indicated when patient therapy requires repeated venous access for injection or infusion therapy and/or venous blood sampling. P.A.S. PORT® Systems with Dual Layer Catheter are indicated when patient therapy requires repeated venous access for injection or infusion therapy and/or venous blood sampling.

Device Story

Totally implantable venous access systems consisting of a portal, catheter, and connector; designed for repeated venous access for medication/fluid delivery and blood sampling. Portals are titanium, polysulfone/titanium, or plastic; catheters feature a dual-layer design with a Polyether block amide outer lining and an aliphatic polyurethane inner lining. Components are assembled during implantation in the chest or arm. Systems utilize ULTRA-LOCK® or SlideLock connectors. Replaces previous single-layer polyurethane catheters. Used by clinicians to provide long-term vascular access, facilitating therapy delivery and reducing the need for repeated venipuncture, thereby benefiting patients undergoing chronic treatments.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Safety and effectiveness established via bench testing (in-vitro) and in-vivo performance evaluation of the new catheter material. Biocompatibility testing was performed on all system components with passing results.

Technological Characteristics

Totally implantable venous access system. Portal materials: titanium, polysulfone, or plastic. Catheter: dual-layer construction (Polyether block amide outer lining, aliphatic polyurethane inner lining). Connectors: ULTRA-LOCK® or SlideLock. Sterilization: unchanged from predicate. No software or electronic components.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring repeated vascular access for injection, infusion therapy, or venous blood sampling.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A subcutaneous, implanted, intravascular infusion port and catheter is a device that consists of a subcutaneous, implanted reservoir that connects to a long-term intravascular catheter. The device allows for repeated access to the vascular system for the infusion of fluids and medications and the sampling of blood. The device consists of a portal body with a resealable septum and outlet made of metal, plastic, or combination of these materials and a long-term intravascular catheter is either preattached to the port or attached to the port at the time of device placement. The device is available in various profiles and sizes and can be of a single or multiple lumen design.
