Intended Use
INDIGO CAT RX Aspiration Catheters and INDIGO Separator 4 As part of the INDIGO Aspiration System, the INDIGO CAT RX Aspiration Catheters and Separator 4 are indicated for the removal of fresh, soft emboli and thrombi from vessels in the coronary and peripheral vasculature. INDIGO Aspiration Tubing As part of the INDIGO Aspiration System, the INDIGO Sterile Aspiration Tubing is indicated to connect the INDIGO CAT RX Aspiration Catheters to the Penumbra Aspiration Pump. Penumbra Aspiration Pump The Penumbra Aspiration Pump is indicated as a vacuum source for Penumbra Aspiration Systems.
Device Story
Indigo Aspiration System removes thrombus from coronary and peripheral vasculature via continuous aspiration. System includes dual-lumen rapid exchange CAT RX Aspiration Catheter, Separator 4, aspiration tubing, and Penumbra Engine Pump with 1000 mL canister. Physician guides catheter over guidewire to occlusion site under fluoroscopy; aspiration applied via pump to remove thrombus into canister. Separator 4 clears catheter lumen if blocked. Engine Pump is electromechanical vacuum source; operates at 100-240 Vac, 50/60 Hz; maintains vacuum for 3 hours continuous use; 500-hour operating life. Used in OR or interventional labs. Pump and canister do not contact patient. Output allows physician to clear occlusions, potentially restoring blood flow and improving patient outcomes.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data. Performance verified via electrical safety, EMC, environmental, dimensional, and 500-hour life testing. Packaging validated per ASTM D4169.
Technological Characteristics
Electromechanical vacuum pump; 100-240 Vac, 50/60 Hz. 1000 mL reservoir canister with stop-flow filter. Catheters: dual-lumen rapid exchange, fluoroscopically visible. Compliance: IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, EN ISO 10079-1. Packaging: corrugated cardboard with foam inserts (pump), clay-coated SBS boxes (canister).
Indications for Use
Indicated for removal of fresh, soft emboli and thrombi from coronary and peripheral vessels. Used with Penumbra Aspiration System components.
Regulatory Classification
Identification

#### Device Description 1.8
The Indigo System (CAT RX and Separator 4) is designed to remove thrombus from the coronary and peripheral vessels by aspirating the proximal side of the thrombus. The intended users for this device are physicians who have received appropriate training in interventional techniques. The Indigo System (CAT RX and Separator 4) was most recently cleared under K163618.
The Indigo System (CAT RX and Separator 4) is designed to remove thrombus from the vasculature using continuous aspiration. The INDIGO CAT RX Aspiration Catheter is a dual lumen rapid exchange catheter that targets aspiration from the Pump directly to the thrombus, removing it via the INDIGO Aspiration Tubing and depositing it in the Pump Canister. The INDIGO Separator 4 may be used, if needed, to clear the lumen of the INDIGO CAT RX Aspiration Catheter should it become blocked with thrombus. The INDIGO CAT RX Aspiration Catheter is introduced through a guide catheter or long introducer sheath and into the coronary or peripheral vasculature and guided over a guidewire to the site of the primary occlusion. The INDIGO CAT RX Aspiration Catheter may be provided with a rotating hemostasis valve and a peelable sheath. The INDIGO Separator 4 is provided with an introducer and torque device. The INDIGO CAT RX Aspiration Catheter and INDIGO Separator 4 are visible under fluoroscopy.
The Penumbra Engine Pump and Canister
The Penumbra Engine Pump ("Engine Pump") is an electromechanical device designed to create vacuum pressure for use with the Indigo System (CAT RX and Separator 4). The

Image /page/6/Picture/0 description: The image shows the Penumbra logo. The word "Penumbra" is written in a red, sans-serif font. To the right of the word is a red circle with a white "P" inside. The logo is simple and modern.
Engine Pump maintains vacuum pressure for 3 hours of continuous use and has an operating life of ≥ 500 hours. The pump can be used in environments with 100 - 240 Vac and 50/60 Hz. The Engine Pump is intended for use in operating rooms or interventional catheterizations laboratories. The Engine Pump and Canister do not come into contact with the patient. The Engine Pump Canister is a 1000 mL minimum volume reservoir which is an accessory to the Engine Pump. The Canister has a lid with a stop-flow filter to prevent excess fluid from entering the pump. The patient port on the lid is sized to accept the Suction Connector on the Indigo Aspiration Tubing.

No additional biocompatibility testing is required or was performed for the Indigo System (CAT RX and Separator 4) sterile devices.
The Indigo System (CAT RX and Separator 4) Engine Pump is a non-sterile reusable piece of capital equipment. The pump does not contact the patient, nor is it introduced into the sterile field. As such, biocompatibility testing is not required and was not performed for the pump. The Indigo System (CAT RX and Separator 4) Engine Pump Canister also does not contact the patient, nor is it introduced into the sterile field. Furthermore, blood or body fluids collected in the canister are not re-introduced to the patient. As such, biocompatibility testing is not required and was not performed for the Canister.
### 1.10.2 Design Verification (Bench-top Testing and Electrical Safety/EMC Testing)
The subject and predicate Indigo System (CAT RX and Separator 4) sterile devices are identical. There are no changes to the design specifications and performance characteristics of the Indigo System (CAT RX and Separator 4) sterile devices. Therefore, all previous bench-top testing data which were reviewed and cleared under K163618 continue to support the subject Indigo System (CAT RX and Separator 4) sterile devices. No additional bench-top testing is required or was performed for the Indigo System (CAT RX and Separator 4) sterile devices.
