Indications for Use

The RectalPro™75 Endorectal Balloon device is a single-use disposable, inflatable, non-powered positioning device intended for use in the temporary positioning of the rectal wall and adjacent structure in the male human anatomies. The purpose of the device is to stabilize the prostate during Computed Tomography (CT) exam, and X-Ray when these imaging techniques are used for Radiation Therapy (RT) planning.

Device Story

RectalPro™ 75 is a single-use, non-powered, inflatable rectal balloon; used to immobilize the prostate and displace normal tissue during radiation therapy planning (CT/X-Ray). Device consists of a curved shaft with an inflatable balloon, a locking stopper for depth control, and a syringe for inflation with air or water. Operated by clinicians in a clinical setting; inserted into the rectum and inflated to stabilize the prostate; deflated and removed post-procedure. Provides a predictable, reproducible prostate position; benefits patient by improving radiation targeting accuracy and sparing adjacent healthy tissue.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Assessments included biocompatibility (ISO 10993-1), bioburden (ISO 11737-1), leak/burst testing, transportation testing (ASTM D4169:2016), and risk assessment (ISO 14971). Results met all acceptance criteria and demonstrated performance comparable to the predicate device.

Technological Characteristics

Materials: PVC with blue colorant, silicone, polypropylene. Principle: Inflatable balloon for mechanical immobilization. Energy: Non-powered (manual syringe inflation). Form factor: Curved shaft with balloon, locking stopper, and luer-lock tubing. Connectivity: None. Sterilization: Non-sterile, not intended for user sterilization. Standards: ISO 10993-1 (biocompatibility), ISO 11737-1 (bioburden), ASTM D4169:2016 (transportation), ISO 14971 (risk).

Indications for Use

Indicated for male patients requiring prostate stabilization during CT or X-Ray imaging for radiation therapy planning.

Indication for Use Statement The RectalPro™75 Endorectal Balloon device is a single-use disposable, inflatable, non-powered positioning device intended for use in the temporary positioning of the rectal wall and adjacent structure in the male human anatomies. The purpose of the device is to stabilize the prostate during Computed Tomography (CT) exam, and X-Ray when these imaging techniques are used for Radiation Therapy (RT) planning. #### 7. Device Description The RectalPro™ 75 Endorectal Balloon (ERB) is single use, disposable, inflatable, non-powered rectal device placed in the rectum to immobilize the prostate in patients undergoing radiation therapy. The device is intended to be used during all the phases of radiation therapy, including treatment planning, image verification, and radiotherapy delivery. The RectalPro75 is designed as an immobilizer to assist in positioning the prostate in a more predictable and reproducible location during Computed Tomography (CT) exam and X-ray, when these imaging techniques are used for Radiation Therapy (RT) planning. The ERB is inserted into the rectum and inflated prior to the start of a CT scan or RT therapy procedure. The device stabilizes the prostate once the device is inflated. The ERB is deflated and removed after each individual scan or therapy procedure is complete, and a new balloon is used in the next therapy session. The RectalPro ERB is designed with a slim curved, extended shaft and balloon. The device is provided non-sterile to the end user, is not intended to be sterilized by the end user. It is packaged in a kit configuration, consisting of three primary components: - 1. ERB shaft This is the shaft with attached balloon and attached clear plastic tubing for filling the balloon with air / water. The end of the tubing has a female luer lock. There are white markings on the side of the ERB shaft as insertion depth markings. - 2. Stopper This is the circular plastic piece with one flat side, and one side containing four prongs. There is a hole in the middle of the stopper for placement onto the ERB shaft. - 3. Air / water valve This is the small plastic valve on the air tube connected to the ERB shaft. The clamp on the air / water tube stops the air / water flow by squeezing the tube closed. This component stops air / water from releasing out of the balloon after it has been filled. The kit also includes a standard 100 cc syringe with male luer lock connector, for connecting to the female luer connection of the ERB tubing, and is used to deliver the water or air to the ERB. #### 8.
