Indications for Use

HydroPICC is indicated for short- or long-term peripheral access to the central venous system for intravenous therapy, including but not limited to; the administration of fluids, medications, and nutrients; the sampling of blood; central venous pressure monitoring; and power injection of contrast media. HydroPICC is rated for a Maximum Power Injection Flow Rate of 3.5ml/sec.

Device Story

HydroPICC is a 4Fr, 55cm peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) designed for short- or long-term access to the superior vena cava. The device is supplied in a kit containing insertion and maintenance accessories, including a tear-away introducer, guidewire, and adhesive fixation device. It is operated by healthcare professionals in clinical settings. The catheter body is composed of a hydrophilic polyol material, which is designed to reduce thrombosis accumulation. The device supports power injection of contrast media at flow rates up to 3.5 mL/sec. Healthcare providers use the catheter for intravenous therapy, blood sampling, and pressure monitoring. By reducing thrombus formation, the device aims to improve catheter performance and patient outcomes during venous access.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. No clinical data provided. Evidence includes biocompatibility testing (ISO 10993-1) and extensive mechanical testing (power injection flow, burst strength, kink/flex resistance, tensile strength, and catheter compatibility). Thrombus accumulation was evaluated using in vitro blood loop and in vivo models.

Technological Characteristics

4Fr, 55cm PICC; hydrophilic polyol catheter body; radiopaque; single lumen. Sterilized via Ethylene Oxide (ISO 11135-1). Accessories include tear-away introducer, guidewire, and adhesive fixation device. Rated for power injection up to 3.5 mL/sec.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring short- or long-term peripheral access to the central venous system for intravenous therapy, including fluid/medication/nutrient administration, blood sampling, central venous pressure monitoring, and power injection of contrast media.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A percutaneous, implanted, long-term intravascular catheter is a device that consists of a slender tube and any necessary connecting fittings, such as luer hubs, and accessories that facilitate the placement of the device. The device allows for repeated access to the vascular system for long-term use of 30 days or more, and it is intended for administration of fluids, medications, and nutrients; the sampling of blood; and monitoring blood pressure and temperature. The device may be constructed of metal, rubber, plastic, composite materials, or any combination of these materials and may be of single or multiple lumen design.

The HydroPICC is a 4Fr, 55cm long catheter suitable for periodic access to the superior vena cava (SVC). HydroPICC has been shown to be effective in reducing thrombosis accumulation. Reduction of thrombosis accumulation was evaluated using in vitro and in vivo models. Preclinical in vitro and in vivo evaluations do not necessarily predict clinical performance with respect to thrombosis formation.. HydroPICC is supplied in a kit with the necessary accessories to insert and maintain the catheter. The following accessories are provided with the HydroPICC: - Tear-away Introducer ● - Introducer needle . - Guidewire ● - Male Cap Plug . - 60cm. Paper Tape Measure ● - Needle-Free Valve ● - Luer Lock Syringe ● - Adhesive Fixation Device Bard StatLock (Venetec, K943147) ● - Scalpel ● - Transparent Film Dressing ● # Indications for Use HydroPICC is indicated for short- or long-term peripheral access to the central venous system for intravenous therapy, including but not limited to; the administration of fluids, medications, and nutrients; the sampling of blood; central venous pressure monitoring; and power injection of contrast media. HydroPICC is rated for a Maximum Power Injection Flow Rate of 3.5ml/sec. {5}------------------------------------------------ The Indications for Use statement for the HydroPICC is identical to the predicate device (K121089). ## Comparison of Technological Characteristics with the Predicate Device The technological characteristics of the HydroPICC are substantially equivalent to the predicate, the Navilyst BioFlo (K121089) in terms of intended use, application, user population, basic design, performance, and labeling. Briefly, both the subject and predicate device are, - . intended for short- or long-term peripheral access to the central venous system for intravenous therapy, including but not limited to, the administration of fluids, medications, nutrients; the sampling of blood; for central venous pressure monitoring and for power injection of contrast media. - available in 4 French size - . rated for maximum power injection flow rate up to 3.5ml - . available kitted with a range of procedural accessories for user convenient; and - . demonstrates reduction of thrombosis accumulation using in vitro and in vivo models. The only difference between the subject device and the K121089 predicate is the composition of the catheter body, however the results of biocompatibility and mechanical testing and evaluation of compatibility with sterilization, demonstrate the subject device raises no additional questions related to safety or effectiveness. In addition, the subject device and predicate device were tested concurrently in the Catheter Thrombus Accumulation Using in vitro Blood Loop and Catheter Compatibility with Medications testing, and the results demonstrate that the proposed device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device with regard to catheter body performance. | Specification | BioFlo PICC with ENDEXO Technology Angiodynamics K121089 | Spectrum Silicone Catheter COOK K021557 | HydroPICC Access Vascular PICC-141 | | |------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Intended Use | Intended for short- or long- term peripheral access to the central venous system for intravenous therapy. | The COOK Spectrum@ Silicone Catheter is used for the intravenous administration of nutrient fluids, chemotherapeutic agents and other drugs for therapy, blood sampling, | Same as K121089, Substantially equivalent to K01557.
