Intended Use
The Glidesheath Slender is used to facilitate placing a catheter through the skin into the radial artery.
Device Story
The Glidesheath Slender is a manual catheter introducer kit used to facilitate radial artery access. The kit includes an introducer sheath, dilator, entry needle, mini guide wire, and guide wire inserter. The sheath features a hydrophilic coating to reduce friction during insertion and removal. Both the sheath and dilator contain bismuth for radiopacity under fluoroscopy. The device is operated manually by a clinician in a clinical setting. The entry needle or IV catheter is used to access the radial artery; the guide wire is inserted; the sheath and dilator are advanced over the wire; the wire and dilator are removed, leaving the sheath in place for subsequent catheter insertion. The device benefits the patient by providing a stable, low-friction access point for diagnostic or interventional procedures.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only, including ISO 11070 performance verification (surface, corrosion, radiodetectability, leakage, force at break, flexibility, insertion/removal resistance) and biocompatibility testing per ISO 10993-1.
Technological Characteristics
Materials: ETFE, Bismuth Trioxide, Polypropylene, Stainless Steel, Silicone Rubber, SEBS, Polybutadiene, Polycarbonate, Polyethylene, Nickel-Titanium, Tungsten. Sensing/Actuation: Manual. Connectivity: None. Sterilization: Ethylene Oxide (SAL 10^-6). Form factor: Introducer sheath and dilator kit. No software or algorithm.

# C. Predicate Device (807.92(a)(3))
The legally marketed device to which substantial equivalence is claimed is the current Glidesheath Slender (6Fr) which is manufactured by Ashitaka Factory of Terumo Corporation and was cleared under K122980.
## D. Reason for 510(k) Submission
This premarket notification (Special 510(k)) is being submitted to extend the current Glidesheath Slender (6Fr) product line to include the 5Fr and 7Fr sizes. This is a modification to the Glidesheath Slender (6Fr) (K122980) introducer sheath manufactured by Ashitaka Factory of Terumo Corporation.
## E. Device Description (807.92(a)(4))
### Principle of Operation Technology
The Glidesheath Slender (GSS) (5Fr & 7Fr) submitted in this 510(k) and the GSS (6Fr) cleared under K122980 are operated manually or by a manual process.
### Design/Construction
Both the predicate Glidesheath Slender 6Fr (GSS 6Fr) and the modified Glidesheath Slender 5Fr & 7Fr (GSS 5Fr & 7Fr) consist of an introducer sheath and a dilator which are packaged together with an entry needle, mini guide wire and guide wire inserter. The GSS devices (all sheath sizes) are used to facilitate placing a catheter through the skin into the radial artery. The sheath and dilator contain bismuth, making these devices visible under fluoroscopy. The sheath is coated with hydrophilic coating to minimize frictional resistance when inserting or removing the sheath from the patient's blood vessel.
The entry needle (cannula) is used to gain access to the radial artery for placement of the mini guide wire. The entry needle is offered in two versions, either a stainless steel entry needle or a Surflo IV catheter (K891087).
The mini guide wire is used for placement of the sheath and dilator into the radial artery. The mini guide wire is offered in two versions, either a stainless steel (spring coil) model or a polyurethane (nitinol core) plastic model.
The mini guide wire is inserted through a cannula placed in the patient's blood vessel. A guide wire inserter is provided to assist in insertion of the mini guide wire into the cannula. Following guide wire insertion, the cannula is removed and the sheath and dilator are then inserted over the mini guide wire and into the blood vessel. The mini guide wire is then withdrawn from the vessel. The dilator maintains the integrity of the sheath and dilates the blood vessel during insertion. Once the sheath is situated in the vessel, the dilator is removed and an appropriate catheter can then be inserted through the sheath.
{5}------------------------------------------------
The entry needle, the mini guide wire and the guide wire inserter are packaged with the GSS in an individual package prior to sterilization. With the exception of the Surflo IV catheter, which is cleared under K891087, accessories provided in the GSS kit are not offered for individual sale.

### Biocompatibility
Biocompatibility of the modified GSS (5Fr & 7Fr) was evaluated based upon ISO 10993-1: 2009. The modified GSS (5Fr & 7Fr) including Sheath, Dilator, Guidewire, and Entry needle are classified as Externally Communicating Devices. Circulating Blood, Limited Contact (<24 hrs). This is the same classification as the predicate Glidesheath Slender (6Fr) (K122980).
All of the modified GSS (5Fr & 7Fr) materials are the same as the predicate GSS (6Fr) (K122980) and/or other currently marketed Terumo devices including the Glidesheath (5Fr) (K082644) and the Radiofocus Introducer II Kit (7Fr) (K954234). These devices have the same intended use, body contact and contact duration classification based on ISO10993-1: 2009. The Glidesheath and Radiofocus Introducer product lines have a demonstrated history of safe and effective use.
Additionally, biocompatibility testing was conducted in accordance with the FDA General Program memorandum #G95-1(5/1/95): Use of International Standard ISO-10993, "Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices Part 1: Evaluation and Testing". Samples tested were final, sterilized, whole finished good devices (including Sheath, Dilator, Guidewire, Guidewire Inserter, and Entry needle). Testing was conducted in accordance with 21 CFR Part 58 (Good Laboratory Practice for Nonclinical Laboratory Studies).
Physiochemical Profile (Physicochemical and FT-IR Analysis) testing was also conducted by Terumo Corporation per USP <661> Containers-Plastics: Physiochemical Tests. Testing demonstrated that the physiochemical properties of the subject GSS device do not change throughout its shelf life, and, therefore, remain biocompatible.
All test results met the requirements of applicable standards. A list of biocompatibility tests conducted are summarized Table 5.5 on the following page.
{11}------------------------------------------------
| Table 5.5: Glidesheath Slender – Biocompatibility Testing Summary | |

|--|--|-------------------------------------------------------------------|--|--|--|--|
|--|--|-------------------------------------------------------------------|--|--|--|--|
We conclude therefore that the modified GSS (5Fr & 7Fr) is biocompatible for its intended use.
#### Sterilization
The sterilization conditions have been validated according to ANSI / AAMI / ISO 11135-1, Sterilization of Health Care Products– Part 1: Requirements for development, validation and routine control of a sterilization process for medical devices, to provide a Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of 10 °. The validation is on file and available upon request.
Residual ethylene oxide (EO) and ethylene chlorohydrin (ECH) will meet requirements for limited exposure devices (contact up to 24 hours) prior to use based on ISO 10993-7, Biological Evaluation of medical devices- Part 7: Ethylene Oxide Sterilization residuals. Residual EO will not exceed 4 mg per device and residual ECH will not exceed 9 mg per device.
{12}------------------------------------------------
### Pyrogen Testing
The Glidesheath Slender is certified to be non-pyrogenic in the unopened and undamaged package. Limulus Amebocyte Lysate (LAL) (Photometric Quantitative Method) testing is performed on each lot of product in accordance to the United States Pharmacopoeia (USP) <85> Bacterial Endotoxins Test. Validation was performed in accordance with FDA published "Guidance for Industry Pyrogen and Endotoxins Testing: Questions and Answers; June 2012".
### Risk Analysis
A Product Risk Analysis was conducted in accordance with ISO 14971: 2007, taking into account the modifications to the previous device, and it was determined that there were no new issues of safety or effectiveness.
## I. Clinical Tests (807.92(b)(2))
This 510(k) does not include data from clinical tests.
## J. Conclusion (807.92(b)(3))
The proposed GSS (5Fr & 7Fr) is substantially equivalent in intended use, principles of operation, design features, materials, performance and fundamental scientific technology when compared to the predicate GSS (6Fr) (K122980). Verification testing was conducted and demonstrated that the modified device meets the design inputs and meets the same or equivalent requirements as the predicate GSS (6Fr) for both ISO 11070 and internal standards. The differences between the predicate and proposed devices do not raise any new issues regarding safety and effectiveness. Therefore, the GSS (5Fr & 7Fr) is considered substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
