Device Class
Class 2
Intended Use
The SecurAcath device is indicated for short or long term securement of percutaneous indwelling catheters for intravenous use to the access site by means of a subcutaneous anchor.
Device Story
SecurAcath is a single-use, sterile, subcutaneous anchoring system for indwelling catheters. It consists of a base assembly, a cover, and a blunt nitinol anchor. The device is deployed by inserting the nitinol anchor into the subcutaneous space at the catheter access site and clamping the catheter shaft between the base and cover. This mechanism secures the catheter to the skin, reducing migration and accidental pull-out without impeding fluid flow. It is used in clinical settings to manage percutaneous catheters. The device is an accessory to the catheter; it does not process data or provide clinical outputs. Benefits include improved catheter stability and reduced risk of dislodgement.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence is supported by bench testing, including dimensional verification, joint tensile strength, base/cover interaction, hinge performance, and catheter securement performance testing. Risk management was conducted per ISO 14971:2012.
Technological Characteristics
Single-use, sterile subcutaneous securement device. Materials are identical to the predicate. Features a blunt nitinol anchor for subcutaneous deployment and a mechanical base/cover clamp. Sterilization via EtO (ISO 11135) to SAL 10^-6. Compatible with 3F-12F catheters. No software or electronic components.
Indications for Use
Indicated for short or long-term securement of percutaneous indwelling intravenous catheters to the access site via a subcutaneous anchor.

#### Device Description
The SecurAcath device is a standalone subcutaneous anchoring securement system used to secure the catheter to the access site. The securement is achieved by means of a blunt nitinol anchor deployed into the subcutaneous space at the catheter access site, and the clamping of the catheter shaft between the Base Assembly and Cover of the device.
The intended use of the SecurAcath device is to secure catheters by means of a subcutaneous anchor.
#### Technological Characteristics Comparison
The SecurAcath is a single use, sterile device for securing indwelling catheters. The device is a stand-alone accessory to percutaneous indwelling catheters. The securement to the catheter access site is achieved by means of a blunt nitinol Anchor deployed into the subcutaneous space at the catheter access site. The securement of the catheved by the clamping of the catheter shaft between the Base Assembly and Cover of the device. This reduces catheter migration and accidental pull-out while not significantly affecting fluid flow.
The changes between the subject device and predicate device is the addition of the 10F and 12F sized SecurAcath devices to the SecurAcath family to secure 10F and 12F catheters. Design changes for the 10F and 12F includes the removal of alignment fingers and the shaft lock shape change to oval.
