Intended Use
The Squirt Fluid Delivery System is intended for the controlled administration of thrombolytic agents into the peripheral vasculature.
Device Story
Hand-held instrument for consistent, forceful, pulsed injections during thrombolysis procedures; attaches to syringe and catheter to infuse thrombolytic agents into peripheral vasculature. Device facilitates controlled delivery of medication to aid in clot dissolution. Used by clinicians in clinical settings. Benefits include optimized thrombolysis through controlled, pulsed administration.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance testing conducted per ISO 8536-4, ISO 8536-10, and ISO 10993 series. Tests included rotational torque, hydrostatic pressure, vacuum leak, particulate, leakage, and comprehensive biocompatibility (cytotoxicity, sensitization, irritation, systemic toxicity, pyrogenicity, hemocompatibility). Results demonstrated compliance with all predetermined acceptance criteria.
Technological Characteristics
Hand-held fluid delivery system. Materials evaluated per ISO 10993 and ASTM F756-13. Sterilization via ethylene oxide (ISO 11135). Mechanical components include a rotator assembly with an O-ring. No electronic or software components.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the controlled administration of thrombolytic agents into the peripheral vasculature.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An embolectomy catheter is a balloon-tipped catheter that is used to remove thromboemboli, i.e., blood clots which have migrated in blood vessels from one site in the vascular tree to another.

Dear Ms. Brady:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food. Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices. good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical devicerelated adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
