Intended Use

Kitazato IUI Catheter is used for the introduction of washed spermatozoa into the uterine cavity through the cervix. Kitazato IUI Stylet is used to provide rigidity and assist in maintaining the shape of the catheter shaft.

Device Story

Kitazato IUI Catheter is a single-use, sterile device for intrauterine insemination. It consists of a polyvinyl chloride shaft with an ABS connector and depth markers. Models include Type 4 (no core, optional stylet cannula) and Type 5 (integrated stainless steel core). The device is used by clinicians in a clinical setting to deliver washed spermatozoa into the uterine cavity. The clinician inserts the catheter through the cervix, guided by depth markers; a syringe (not included) is attached to the 6% taper connector to inject the sperm. The stylet or integrated stainless steel core provides rigidity to assist navigation through curved cervices. The device facilitates assisted reproduction by ensuring precise delivery of sperm, potentially increasing the likelihood of conception.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Testing included mechanical tensile strength, dimensional verification, appearance, endotoxin levels (≤20 EU/device), sterility (USP <71), biocompatibility (ISO 10993-1: cytotoxicity, sensitization, irritation), Human Sperm Survival Assay (HSSA) showing ≥70% motility at 24 hours, color fastness, shelf-life validation, and package integrity (ISO 11607).

Technological Characteristics

Materials: Polyvinyl chloride (shaft), ABS (connector), SUS 304 stainless steel (core/stylet). Dimensions: 10 cm or 18 cm length; 1.7 mm (5 Fr) or 2.0 mm (6 Fr) diameter. Connectivity: 6% taper syringe connector. Sterilization: Ethylene Oxide (EO).

Indications for Use

Indicated for the introduction of washed spermatozoa into the uterine cavity through the cervix in patients undergoing intrauterine insemination.

Kitazato IUI Catheter with Outer Stiffener with or without Stylet Cannula, 18 cm, model number Type 4-v1 and Type 4-v2 - . Kitazato IUI Catheter with Outer Stiffener with or without Stylet Cannula, 10 cm, model number Type 4-v3 and Type 4-v4 - Kitazato IUI Catheter with Outer Stiffener with Stainless Steel Core, 18 cm, model number Type 5-v1 and Type 5-v2 - Kitazato IUI Catheter with Outer Stiffener with Stainless Steel Core, 10 cm, model number Type 5-v3 and Type 5-v4 Kitazato IUI Catheter is used for the introduction of washed spermatozoa into the uterine cavity through the cervix. Kitazato IUI Stylet is used to provide rigidity and assist in maintaining the shape of the catheter shaft. ## 7. Device Description The Kitazato IUI Catheter is a set of intrauterine insemination (IUI) catheters comprised of two different models that include either no stainless steel core (Type 4) or a stainless steel core (Type 5). Each type of catheter has a 10 cm or 18 cm catheter shaft length that incorporates an outer stiffener component and a syringe connector. The distal tip of the catheter shaft is rounded and includes two side holes 3 mm from the tip of the catheter for sperm delivery. The catheter shaft also includes depth marker bands at 5, 6, 7, and 8 cm from the distal tip to aid in delivery of the device to the targeted depth. The catheter is composed of a polyvinyl chloride shaft and an acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) connector. The Stylet Cannula (Type 6) used with the Type 4 catheter is composed of a stainless steel cannula (SUS304) and an ABS syringe connector. The Stylet Cannula's stainless steel core provides rigidity and assists in maintaining the shape of the catheter shaft when the uterine cervix is sharply curved. The Stylet Cannula is inserted into the catheter shaft through the connector end and then the IUI Catheter is inserted into the cervix. During an IUI procedure, the catheter is introduced into the uterine cavity through the cervix, and the spermatozoa are injected into the uterine cavity by a syringe (not included) that is coupled at the connector end (6% taper connection) of the catheter shaft. Model configurations and specifications for the Kitazato IUI Catheters are listed below: {5}------------------------------------------------ | Code | Model | Product Name | Code Catheter Body | Center Core Material | Catheter Length | Outer Diameter | Depth mark | Stylet Cannula | |--------|----------|-------------------------------------------|----------------------|----------------------|-----------------|----------------|------------|----------------| | 131184 | Type4-v1 | Catheter with Outer Stiffener with Stylet | Polyvinyl-chloride | None | 18 cm | 1.70mm/5 Fr | Yes | Yes | | 131182 | Type4-v2 | Cannula | (not made with DEHP) | None | 18 cm | 2.00mm/6Fr | Yes | Yes | | 131104 | Type4-v3 | | None | None | 10 cm | 1.70mm/5 Fr | Yes | Yes | | 131102 | Type4-v4 | | | None | 10 cm | 2.00mm/6Fr | Yes | Yes | | 131181 | Type5-v1 | Catheter with Outer Stiffener with | Polyvinyl-chloride | S.S.
