Intended Use

The Wildcat 5F Guidewire Support Catheter (Kittycat 2) is intended to be used to support steerable guidewires in accessing discrete regions of the peripheral vasculature. It may be used to facilitate placement and exchange of guidewires and other interventional devices. It.may also be used to deliver saline or contrast.

Device Story

5F over-the-wire support catheter; 150 cm working length; 0.014" guidewire compatible. Consists of catheter shaft, proximal handle assembly, and pre-shaped atraumatic distal tip. Used in peripheral vasculature; operated by physicians. Provides support for steerable guidewires; facilitates placement/exchange of guidewires and interventional devices; allows delivery of saline or contrast. Manual advancement mechanism. Single-use; sterile.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Testing included visual/dimensional verification, tensile, torque, guidewire advancement, device advancement, tip deflection, leak testing, flexibility/trackability, spiral blade functional testing, coating friction, biocompatibility, in vitro simulated use, packaging, shipping, shelf life, and sterility testing. All results met pre-determined specifications.

Technological Characteristics

5F sheath; 150 cm length; 0.014" guidewire compatible. Features proximal locking luer connector and pre-shaped distal tip. Manual operation. Sterilized via irradiation. Single-use.

Indications for Use

Indicated for use in peripheral vasculature to support steerable guidewires, facilitate placement/exchange of guidewires and interventional devices, and deliver saline or contrast.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

| Product Code: | DQY |
| Device Class: | Class II |

#### F. Predicate Device

The Avinger Wildcat 5F Guidewire Support Catheter (Kittycat 2) is substantially equivalent to the Avinger Wildcat 5F Guidewire Support Catheter (K101647).

#### Device Description G.

The Wildcat 5F Guidewire Support Catheter (Kittycat 2) is a 5F sheath and 0.014" guidewire compatible over-the-wire device. It consists of a catheter shaft with handle assembly at the proximal end and an atraumatic distal tip. The catheter is available in a working length of 150 cm. A locking luer connector at the proximal end provides entry to a lumen that supports and facilitates movement of a guidewire. The catheter has been irradiated for sterility and is intended for single use only.

#### H. Intended Use

The Wildcat 5F Guidewire Support Catheter (Kittycat 2) is intended to be used to support steerable guidewires in accessing discrete regions of the peripheral vasculature. It may be used to facilitate placement and exchange of guidewires and other interventional devices. It.may also be used to deliver saline or contrast.

#### l. Substantial Equivalence

The Avinger Wildcat 5F Guidewire Support Catheter (Kittycat 2) is substantially equivalent to the Avinger Wildcat 5F Guidewire Support Catheter (K101647). The subject and predicate devices have the same mechanism of action (manual advancement) and perform the same function (access discrete regions of the peripheral vasculature). The primary differences between the subject and predicate device consist of an increased device working length and modifications to the Distal Tip deflection mechanism. The Slider based Distal Tip deflection mechanism was eliminated in favor of a pre-shaped Distal Tip. This modification required changes to the Distal Tip Scaffold, Distal Tip / Torque Shaft attachment, and Driveshaft construction. In addition, a change to the Fluid Seal Tube dimensions located in the Handle was made for ease of manufacturing purposes. The changes to the Wildcat 5F Guidewire Support Catheter cleared under K101647 results in no significant changes to technological characteristics and does not raise any new issues of safety or effectiveness.

#### J. Non-Clinical Performance Data

The following non-clinical testing was conducted to support a determination of substantial equivalence to the predicate device.

| • Visual and Dimensional Verification | • Spiral Blade Functional Testing |
|---------------------------------------|-----------------------------------|
| • Tensile Testing | • Coating Friction Testing |
| • Torque Testing | • Biocompatibility |
| • Guidewire advancement | • In Vitro Simulated Use Testing |
| • Device Advancement | • Packaging Testing |
| • Tip Deflection Testing | • Shipping Testing |
| • Device leak testing | • Shelf Life Testing |
| • Luer Leak Testing | • Sterility Testing |
| • Flexibility/Trackability | |

The above testing confirmed that the Wildcat 5F Guidewire Support Catheter (Kittycat 2) performs according to the stated intended use. All data fell well within pre-determined product specifications and external standard requirements.

Results of non-clinical testing demonstrated that the Wildcat 5F Guidewire Support Catheter (Kittycat 2) is substantially equivalent to the predicate device

#### K. Conclusions

for its intended use.

The Avinger Wildcat 5F Guidewire Support Catheter (Kittycat 2) has been carefully compared to a legally marketed device with respect to intended use and technological characteristics. In addition, non-clinical testing was conducted to validate the performance of the device and ensure the Wildcat 5F Guidewire Support Catheter (Kittycat 2) functions as intended and meets design specifications. The comparison and non-clinical results demonstrate that the device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device for its intended use.
