Indications for Use
The MR Compatible Aspiration System is used for controlled aspiration of blood, cystic components of tumors, abscess, colloid cysts, and cerebrospinal fluid using a manual syringe during surgery of the Ventricle System or Cerebrum.
Device Story
MR Compatible Aspiration Kit (MCA Kit) is an accessory to the ClearPoint System used for image-guided neurosurgery. Device consists of a guide, sheath, stylet, depth stops, and cannula. Operated manually by a physician using a syringe to create vacuum pressure (up to 29 inHg) for aspiration of blood, cystic tumor components, abscesses, colloid cysts, or cerebrospinal fluid from the brain. Designed for MR compatibility using non-metallic materials. Output is the physical removal of target tissue or fluid. Benefits include controlled, image-guided aspiration during neurosurgical procedures.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Accuracy testing demonstrated mean error <1.0mm and mean angular error <1°. Compatibility testing verified integration with the ClearPoint SmartFrame XG under tensile, torque, and lateral loading. Flow and leak testing confirmed the ability to aspirate 10cc of simulated materials (blood, cysts, abscesses) at 29.0 inHg without collapse or leakage.
Technological Characteristics
Non-metallic, MR-safe materials. Manual aspiration via syringe. Components: guide, sheath, stylet, depth stops, cannula, adapter. Dimensions: 12F, 14F, 16F sizes. Sterilization: Radiation (ISO 11137-2). Biocompatibility: ISO 10993-1. Packaging: ASTM F2096-11, ASTM D4196-16, ASTM F1980-16.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients undergoing surgery of the Ventricle System or Cerebrum requiring controlled aspiration of blood, cystic tumor components, abscesses, colloid cysts, or cerebrospinal fluid.

#### Device Description
The MCA Kit is an accessory to the cleared ClearPoint System (K171257). The MCA Kit consists of a MCA device guide, guide sheath, stylet, depth stops, cannula (with attached tube) and adapter. The MCA Kit is designed to aid a physician in the removal of specific tissue or fluid types from the brain during image guided surgery. It is MR safe, as all materials are non-metallic. The MCA Kit is comprised of single use only, sterile-packaged disposable components that are packaged together.

## Performance Data
Bench testing was performed to verify the MCA Kit's compatibility with the ClearPoint System, accuracy, and substantial equivalence to the predicate aspiration device.
| Test | Test Method Summary | Results | |
|---------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Accuracy<br>Testing | The company used the same ground<br>truth procedure and test methods that<br>were used in the accuracy testing<br>provided in support of K142505 and<br>K171257 for the ClearPoint System.<br>The test set-up utilized only the scalp<br>mount bases and SmartFrame XG,<br>since the MCA Kit must be used with<br>the SmartFrame XG to allow device<br>guide insertion, and the scalp mount<br>base is the most likely configuration to<br>be used clinically. Placements were<br>performed using the 12 Fr x 30 cm and<br>16 Fr x 30 cm MCA Kits, which<br>represent the smallest and largest OD<br>sizes; accordingly, the test results<br>support the performance of all sizes of<br>the MCA kit. Target depth was 125<br>mm from the base-mounting surface<br>for all placements. | Results from the company's bench<br>accuracy tests demonstrated that the<br>mean error was below 1.0mm, with the<br>highest standard deviation being<br>0.75mm in the X direction and highest<br>99% upper confidence limit of 1.48mm<br>in the X direction. The mean angular<br>error was below 1°, with a standard<br>deviation of 0.34° and 99% upper<br>confidence limit of 0.72°. These values<br>are below the 2mm and 2° accuracy<br>limits for a stereotaxic device intended<br>for general neurological use. | |
| | MCA-Kit Device<br>Guide–<br>SmartFrame<br>XG<br>Compatibility | Performance testing was completed to<br>verify that the device guide and<br>SmartFrame XG are compatible per<br>pre-defined acceptance criteria.<br>Testing included insertion and<br>retention of the Device Guide and<br>Adapter to the SmartFrame under<br>tensile and torque loading, stability of<br>the Guide Sheath-Stylet and Guide<br>Sheath-Cannula under lateral loading<br>when inserted in the SmartFrame, and<br>accuracy with the SmartFrame. | All acceptance criteria were met to<br>demonstrate that the MCA Kit<br>components are compatible with the<br>cleared ClearPoint System SmartFrame<br>XG. |
{5}------------------------------------------------
| Flow and Leak<br>Testing | Testing was conducted to confirm that<br>the device could aspirate at least 10cc<br>of various materials simulating blood,<br>clotted blood, cystic components of<br>tumors, abcesses, colloid cysts, and<br>cerebrospinal fluid without leaking or<br>collapsing and at an acceptable flow<br>rate. | The tests demonstrated that the MCA<br>Kit functions as intended and is<br>substantially equivalent to the legally<br>marketed predicate |

| Aspiration Test | Testing was performed to confirm the<br>device remains operable for a limited<br>period of time at 29.0 inHg for the MCA<br>Kit Cannulas Twelve Fr. and 16 Fr.<br>Cannulas that have undergone worst-<br>case conditioning were used for this<br>test. Plugged cannulas were<br>evaluated under high vacuum<br>generated by a pump to create worst-<br>case conditions. The change in device<br>inner diameter (I.D.) was measured to<br>confirm that the device's integrity was<br>maintained during the aspiration. The<br>device was also verified to remain<br>undamaged after exposure to the<br>conditions. | All Cannulas tested were able to<br>withstand collapsing, leaking, or failing<br>in any other manner when experiencing<br>a minimum aspiration pressure of 29.0 inHg. The measured change in the<br>Rigid section I.D. of the Cannulas was<br>0.0% for the 12 Fr., and 0.8% for the 16<br>Fr. The flexible Tubing had a measured<br>change in I.D. of 1.3% for the 12 Fr. and<br>2.9% for the 16 Fr. Cannulas. The<br>device can operate for a limited period<br>of time at an aspiration pressure of 29.0 inHg without failing. |

## Conclusion
The MCA Kit and Apollo System have substantially similar intended use and indications for use, as well as similar technological characteristics. The minor technological differences in the MCA Kit compared to the Apollo System do not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness. The MCA Kit's accuracy, compatibility with the ClearPoint System SmartFrame XG, flow, leak, and aspiration testing further confirm that the device performs as intended and is substantially equivalent to the legally marketed predicate.
