Intended Use
The CorPath GRX System is intended for use in the remote delivery and manipulation of guidewires and rapid exchange catheters, and remote manipulation of guide catheters during percutaneous coronary and vascular procedures.
Device Story
Robotic system for remote interventional procedures; enables physician to manipulate guidewires, rapid exchange catheters, and guide catheters from a seated position away from radiation source. System comprises bedside unit (extended reach arm, robotic drive, single-use cassette) and remote workspace (control console, monitors, foot pedal). Physician uses joysticks and touchscreen to control robotic drive, which advances, retracts, and rotates interventional devices. System facilitates precise, computer-controlled movements under fluoroscopic guidance. Benefits include reduced radiation exposure for clinicians and enhanced procedural control. Used in clinical settings (e.g., cath lab) by interventional physicians.
Clinical Evidence
No new clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence is supported by non-clinical bench testing (device compatibility and simulated use) and prior clinical evaluations of the predicate CorPath 200 System (K152999), which established safety for use in clinical settings.
Technological Characteristics
Robotic catheter control system; consists of bedside unit with robotic drive and remote control console. Connectivity via communication cable. Operates via computer-controlled mechanical manipulation of guidewires and catheters. Single-use cassette interface. Class II device.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients undergoing percutaneous coronary and vascular procedures requiring the delivery and manipulation of guidewires, rapid exchange catheters, and guide catheters.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A steerable catheter control system is a device that is connected to the proximal end of a steerable guide wire that controls the motion of the steerable catheter.

Dear Robert Lavado:
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. Iisting 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 of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
{1}------------------------------------------------
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97).

| Device Description: | The CorPath GRX System is intended to allow physicians to deliver and manipulate commercially available guidewires, rapid exchange catheters and guide catheters during percutaneous coronary and vascular intervention procedures. During the use of the CorPath GRX System, the physician maneuvers interventional devices using intuitive controls under independent angiographic fluoroscopy visual guidance using computer controlled movements while in a seated position away from the radiation source. |

|---------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
The CorPath GRX System is composed of the following two functional sub-units:
- 1. Bedside Unit Which consists of the Extended Reach Arm, Robotic Drive and Single-use Cassette
- 2. Remote Workspace - Which consists of the Control Console, angiographic monitor(s), hemodynamic monitors, X-ray foot pedal, and optional Interventional Cockpit.
Commercially available guidewires, rapid exchange catheters, and guide catheters are loaded into the Singleuse Cassette. By using the joysticks or the Control Console touch screen, the physician can control the Robotic Drive to advance, retract, and rotate the guidewire, advance and retract the rapid exchange catheter, and advance, retrace, and rotate the guide catheter. The Robotic Drive and Control Console communicate via a single communication cable.
The product subject of this premarket notification is Substantial substantially equivalent in design and functionality to the Equivalence: CorPath GRX System (K160121, cleared October 27, 2016); and the CorPath 200 System (K152999, cleared March 18, 2016).
> The modified CorPath GRX System and the predicate CorPath GRX System have the same technological characteristics. There have been no changes to the modified CorPath GRX System with respect to design, materials, packaging, sterilization, or method of action.
The CorPath GRX System uses the same method of action for driving guidewires and catheters as the predicate CorPath 200 System. The predicate CorPath 200 System was evaluated in a clinical setting and found to be safe for use in the periphery (reference K152999).
{5}------------------------------------------------
Verification/validation testing of the CorPath GRX System
has been conducted to demonstrate the modified CorPath
GRX Systems is substantially equivalent to the predicate
devices. Tests conducted were identified on the basis of
risk analysis activities performed to evaluate the impact of
the modification on the device/components.
Specifically, the following non-clinical laboratory tests were
performed to determine substantial equivalence:
- Device Compatibility Testing
- Simulated Use Testing
All testing has demonstrated that the device is
substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
| Safety and Performance: | The determination of substantial equivalence for this device was based on a detailed device description and non-clinical laboratory testing. The testing demonstrated that the device is safe for its intended use and can be considered substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. Previously conducted clinical evaluation of the predicate device (reference K152999) demonstrates that the device is safe for use in a clinical setting. |
|-------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Conclusion: | Based on the bench testing conducted, it is concluded that the CorPath GRX System is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices: the CorPath 200 System (K152999, cleared March 18, 2016) and the CorPath GRX System (K160121, cleared October 27, 2016). |
