Intended Use
The Modified HD Guide Catheter is indicated for use in facilitating the insertion and guidance of an occlusion catheter, infusion catheter or other appropriate microcatheter into a selected blood vessel in the peripheral, coronary and neuro vascular systems. It may also be used as a diagnostic angiographic catheter and as a conduit for retrieval devices.
Device Story
Modified HD Guide Catheter is a single-lumen, braid-reinforced, variable-stiffness catheter with a hydrophilic coating, radiopaque distal marker, and proximal luer hub. Used in peripheral, coronary, and neurovascular systems to facilitate insertion/guidance of microcatheters, perform diagnostic angiography, and serve as a conduit for retrieval devices during thrombectomy. Operated by physicians in clinical settings. Device provides support in distal anatomy and allows adjunctive aspiration during retriever withdrawal. Output is visual angiographic guidance and mechanical support for interventional tools. Benefits include improved access to distal anatomy and successful clot retrieval in acute ischemic stroke patients.
Clinical Evidence
Clinical evidence includes retrospective review of TREVO 2 (n=99) and TREVO (n=34) studies. Results showed revascularization rates of 84.8% and 96.7% respectively, with no device-related adverse events. Literature review of 15 articles confirmed safety and efficacy in acute ischemic stroke thrombectomy. Post-market surveillance (MDRs) from 2008-2013 showed low complaint rates (0.21%) with no new risks identified.
Technological Characteristics
Single-lumen, braid-reinforced (stainless steel) catheter; Pebax outer jacket; polyolefin strain relief; PTFE braid securement; polyurethane hub; platinum/iridium marker band; acrylic adhesive; hydrophilic coating. Dimensions: 3.9F-6.3F. Sterilization: EO. Standalone device.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use in facilitating insertion/guidance of occlusion, infusion, or microcatheters into peripheral, coronary, and neurovascular vessels; diagnostic angiography; and as a conduit for retrieval devices in patients undergoing thrombectomy procedures.
Regulatory Classification
Identification

#### Risk Assessment
Risk assessment of the Modified HD Guide Catheter has been conducted in accordance with EN ISO 14971:2012. As a result of the risk assessment, the Instructions for Use have been revised to include recommended aspiration procedure steps for use of the Modified HD Guide Catheter with retrieval devices.
#### Testing and Non-Clinical Performance Data:
The results of verification and validation conducted on the Modified HD Guide Catheter demonstrate that it performs as designed, is suitable for its intended use and is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices (K090335 and K110483). The same performance standards, specifications and results as those submitted in the predicate devices (K090335 and K110483) are applicable to the subject device because the designs are identical and no changes have been made to the design, materials, processes, or packaging materials as a result of the expanded indications for use. Therefore, the following design verification tests submitted in the predicate devices (K090335 and K110483) are applicable to the subject device and its new indications for use:
- . Tip Patency during Aspiration: the ability of the device tip to maintain patency during aspiration during simulated use testing was successfully evaluated.
- Air Leak Resistance during Aspiration: the ability of the device to resist leakage ♥ during aspiration was successfully evaluated.
- Leak Testing: the ability of the device to resist leakage was successfully evaluated.
- Dimensional Testing: dimensions of the device were successfully verified. .
- Tensile Testing: the tensile strength of the device was successfully evaluated. .
- . Kink Resistance Testing: the ability of the device to withstand curves without kinking was successfully evaluated.
- . Flexural Fatigue Testing: the flexural fatigue tolerance of the device was successfully evaluated.
- Torque Testing: the ability of the device to withstand torsional forces was successfully evaluated.
- Tip Flexibility Testing: the force to deflect the catheter tip was successfully . evaluated.
- Coating Lubricity and Durability Testing: the durability of the hydrophilic coating . was successfully evaluated.
- Flow Rate Testing: the rate of flow through the device lumen was successfully . evaluated.
- . Luer Testing: luer integrity and conformance to luer standards was successfully evaluated.
To support the expansion of the Indications for Use (IFU), performance testing utilized design validation / simulated use testing to confirm that the subject device and accessories meets user needs "as a conduit for retrieval devices" and continue to meet design requirements of the predicate device. Simulated use testing evaluates the device's ability to be used in a neurovascular model per procedural instructions outlined in the modified Instructions for Use. Based on the results of the risk assessment, no other testing was required to demonstrate the device meets intended uses.
{6}------------------------------------------------
Design validation/simulated use testing was conducted using a neurovascular model cast from actual human neurovascular arteries. This bench testing model replicates the tortuosity, diameter and location of the arteries in the neurovasculature. The model incorporates a re-circulating water bath at 37℃ pressurized between 2 - 2.5 psi (100 -126 mm Hg) to simulate the human arterial circulation.
The simulated use tests described in Table 2 were conducted in support of the expanded indications for use. Finished sterilized devices were used for the simulated use testing. All design validation testing followed the procedural instructions outlined in the Instructions for Use which was revised to include a "Recommended Aspiration Procedure" for use with retrieval devices. Based on the successful completion of the testing, the subject device and its accessories have met all of the pre-specified requirements. A summary of the design validation / simulated use testing and the results is described in Table 2 below.
