Intended Use
The Arrow® Pressure Injectable Jugular Axillo-subclavian Central Catheter with Chlorag+ard® Antimicrobial and Antithrombogenic Technology (CG+ Arrow JACC) is indicated for short-term (<30 days) or long-term (>30 days) access to the central venous system for intravenous therapy, blood sampling, infusion, pressure injection of contrast media and allows for central venous pressure monitoring. The maximum pressure injector equipment used with the Arrow Pressure Injectable JACC may not exceed 300 psi (2068.4 kPa). The maximum pressure injection flow rate for the specific lumen being used for pressure injection is printed on the extension line hub. Chlorag+ard Technology treatment on the external surface of the catheter body as well as the entire fluid pathway of the catheter has been shown to be effective in reducing microbial colonization on catheter surfaces. Antimicrobial effectiveness was evaluated using in vivo test methods and no correlation between these testing methods and clinical outcome has currently been ascertained. It is not intended to be used for the treatment of existing infections.
Device Story
The CG+ Arrow JACC is a radiopaque polyurethane central venous catheter treated with chlorhexidine-based Chlorag+ard technology to reduce microbial colonization and thrombus accumulation. It is available in 1, 2, or 3-lumen configurations. The device is inserted into the central venous system to provide access for intravenous therapy, blood sampling, infusion, and pressure injection of contrast media (up to 300 psi). It is used in clinical settings by healthcare professionals. The device is provided sterile and is compatible with an optional tunneling device for tunneled insertion techniques. The catheter body is non-tapered and features extension lines with clamps and hubs indicating pressure injection capabilities. By providing reliable venous access and antimicrobial protection, the device supports long-term therapy while mitigating risks of catheter-related infections.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data provided. Verification testing included biocompatibility (L929 MEM elution), corrosion resistance, tip penetration, extraneous matter, and tunneler/catheter compatibility (detachment force and structural integrity).
Technological Characteristics
Radiopaque polyurethane catheter body; chlorhexidine-based antimicrobial/antithrombogenic coating; 1, 2, or 3-lumen configurations; 4.5F to 6F diameters; 35cm length; pressure injectable up to 300 psi; ethylene oxide sterilization; compatible with optional tunneling accessory.
Indications for Use
Indicated for short-term (<30 days) or long-term (>30 days) central venous access for IV therapy, blood sampling, infusion, contrast media pressure injection, and CVP monitoring in patients requiring central venous access. Not for treatment of existing infections.
Regulatory Classification
Identification

### Predicate Device
K153423: CG+ Arrow JACC / CG+ Arrow JACC powered by Arrow VPS Stylet
### Device Description
The Arrow Pressure Injectable Jugular Axillo-subclavian Central Catheter with Chlorag arde Antimicrobial and Antithrombogenic Technology (CG+ Arrow JACC) has the following characteristics:
- 4.5 French, 1-Lumen, 35 cm pressure injectable, antimicrobial and antithrombogenic catheter
- 5.5 French, 2-Lumen, 35 cm pressure injectable, antimicrobial and antithrombogenic catheter ●
- 6 French. 3-Lumen. 35 cm pressure injectable, antimicrobial and antithrombogenic catheter ●
The CG+ Arrow JACC is a short-term or long-term, single use catheter designed to provide access to the central venous system. These catheters may be used for any patient population with consideration given to adequacy of vascular anatomy and appropriateness of the procedure. The CG+ Arrow JACC consists of a non-tapered, radiopaque polyurethane extruded catheter body, a juncture hub, extension lines for each lumen and printed extension line hubs. The extension lines each contain a clamp. The catheter can be used for the injection of contrast media. The maximum recommended infusion rate is 5 mL/sec for the 1-lumen and 2-lumen catheters and 6 mL/sec for the 3-lumen catheter. The external catheter body and the internal fluid path of the device are treated with chlorhexidine-based, Chlorag-ard technology. There are no
{4}------------------------------------------------
modifications subject to this premarket notification related to the material design of the devices included in this submission, nor are there any modifications to the Chlorag+ard technology that is incorporated in the modified device's physical design.
The subject device is a CG+ Arrow JACC without a Blue FlexTip that will be provided in sterile kit configurations. A catheter-compatible tunneling device will be offered as an optional kit component. In addition to the catheter tip modification, the printed text on the catheter body and the extension lines has also been modifications, as well as the addition of the tunneling device as an optional kit component, require additions to the recommended procedural technique; procedure steps related to the tunneler and updated graphic representation of the catheter have been included in the instructions for use. All other portions of the catheter design and instructions for use remain unchanged.
## Indications for Use
The Arrow Pressure Injectable Jugular Axillo-subclavian Central Catheter with Chlorag'arde Antimicrobial and Antithrombogenic Technology (CG+ Arrow JACC) is indicated for shortterm (<30 days) or long-term (>30 days) access to the central venous system for intravenous therapy, blood sampling, infusion, pressure injection of contrast media and allows for central venous pressure monitoring. The maximum pressure injector equipment used with the Arrow Pressure Injectable JACC may not exceed 300 psi (2068.4 kPa). The maximum pressure injection flow rate for the specific lumen being used for pressure injection is printed on the extension line hub.
Chlorag+ard Technology treatment on the external surface of the catheter body as well as the entire fluid pathway of the catheter has been shown to be effective in reducing microbial colonization on catheter surfaces. Antimicrobial effectiveness was evaluated using in vitro and in vivo test methods and no correlation between these testing methods and clinical outcome has currently been ascertained. It is not intended to be used for the treatment of existing infections.
The above Indication for Use is identical to the catheter portion of the predicate Indications for Use. The predicate CG+ Arrow JACC / CG+ Arrow JACC powered by Arrow VPS Stylet (K153423) includes a 2-part indications for use statement; the first portion covers the CG+ Arrow JACC and the second portion covers the CG+ Arrow JACC preloaded with the Arrow VPS Stylet. The subject of this submission is the CG+ Arrow JACC portion of the device only. The VPS-preloaded portion of the indications for use is not impacted by the changes described for the proposed CG+ Arrow JACC. Therefore, only the catheter portion of the indications for use statement for the proposed CG+ Arrow JACC is applicable.
### Technological Characteristics and Substantial Equivalence
The subject CG+ Arrow JACC is substantially equivalent to the predicate CG+ Arrow JACC / CG+ Arrow JACC powered by VPS (K153423) in terms of indications for use (catheter portion), manufacturing processes, conditions and aids, functional performance, fundamental scientific technology and materials of construction. There is no change to the geometric design of the subject devices with the exception of the catheter tip: the predicate device is constructed with a
{5}------------------------------------------------
Blue FlexTip distal tip design and the catheter is trimmable; the proposed device omits the Blue FlexTip distal tip, yielding the same catheter distal tip design as the predicate device when trimmed. The instructions for use are being modified to add detail pertaining to the use of a tunneler; catheter trimming instructions were previously included in the instructions for use and continue to apply to the subject device. The following table reflects a comparison of the subject and predicate device characteristics.
