#### 4. Device Description
The Stryker iVAS ® Elite Balloon Catheter is a bone tamp with an inflatable component at the distal end. The balloon is inflated to create a void within the vertebral body. It is used with various accessories during vertebral augmentation.
When the balloon is inflated with radiopaque fluid, the balloon expands axially and radially. Two radiopaque markers are fixed near the distal end of the balloon to show the
{4}------------------------------------------------
location of the balloon during placement. The balloon is coated with silicone to assist with insertion of the catheter into the access needle.
The patient contacting components of the device such as the balloon, catheter coating, lubricant and radiopaque material are externally communicating tissue/bone/dentin-limited contact ≤24 hrs.
#### Associated Accessories include:
- Access cannula/stylet ●
- Syringe
- Inflator ●
- Hand Drill ●
- Cement Tube ●
#### 5. Principles of Operation / Mechanism of Action
The balloon catheter is the functional part of the device that creates a cavity and reduces the fracture. The balloon is designed to create a cavity by compressing cancellous bone and/or moving cortical bone as it inflates. After manufacturing, the balloon is covered with a protector called a sheath that the physician will remove prior to performing a procedure. Radiopaque markers provide for fluoroscopic visualization of the vertebral balloon prior to filling it with contrast media. The radiopaque balloon markers are located within the balloon.
After placing the access cannula into the fractured vertebral body, the physician places the access cannula and stylet in the desired location within the vertebral body, creating a channel for the balloon. The stylet is then removed, leaving the cannula in place. The deflated balloon is inserted through the access cannula. Contrast medium is injected into the balloon to inflate it. As the balloon inflates, it moves and compresses the cancellous bone, creating a void. The balloon is deflated and removed before cement injection takes place. Cement is then injected through the access cannula into this space.
#### 6. Intended Use/Indications for use
The Stryker iVAS® Elite Inflatable Vertebral Augmentation System is intended to be used for the reduction of fractures and/or creation of a void in cancellous bone in the spine. This includes use during percutaneous vertebral augmentation. The system is to be used with cleared spinal Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) bone cements and Cortoss® Bone Augmentation Material indicated for use during percutaneous vertebral augmentation procedures, such as kyphoplasty.

# 8. Non-Clinical
# 8.1 Biocompatibility
Biocompatibility testing, adopted per K172116, was performed following the recommendations of ISO 10993-1 and FDA Guidance (Use of International Standard ISO- 10993, "Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices Part 1: Evaluation and Testing" June 2016) as appropriate for limited exposure (<24 hours) externally communicating, tissue/bone/dentin devices. All biocompatibility testing met the requirements of the respective test method, thus supporting the biocompatibility of the subject device iVAS ® Elite Balloon Catheter.
{6}------------------------------------------------
The biocompatibility testing confirms that the subject device is non-sensitizing, non-irritating and non-toxic (cytotoxic and systemic). The biocompatibility testing met all acceptance criteria deeming this to be a biocompatible medical device.
## 8.2 Bench
A Risk Management File (RMF), in compliance with EN ISO 14971:2012, Medical Devices-Application of risk management to medical devices, was completed to assess the impact of the subject device modification. In accordance with the risk assessment, verification and validation testing was performed in accordance with EN ISO 14971:2012 in an effort to mitigate risk where possible.
All bench testing pertaining to the subject device modifications met their respective acceptance criteria as specified per the individual test report. Each test report was performed using industry accepted standards. The testing was conducted using the final finished device in a manner as similar as possible to how the balloon will be used by the healthcare professional. The performance testing demonstrates equivalence because the subject device is shown to have the same functional characteristics as the predicate device. Per the risk management assessment, the subject device does not introduce any new types of safety and effectiveness questions.
The acceptance criteria for the subject device are similar to the acceptance criteria for the predicate devices, demonstrating equivalence of the subject device to the predicate balloon catheter devices.
Catheter Flexibility Testing and Cold Age testing have been adopted from K093429. Accelerated Age testing has been adopted from K172116. Real-time testing is currently underway for the subject device.
Cadaveric testing was completed to provide evidence that the use of the subject balloon with a high inflation pressure of 808psi would not cause any new concerns regarding safety and effectiveness. This cadaveric testing was completed by a physician using the subject device in a manner as similar as possible to how the balloon would be used in the clinical setting. The subject balloon was inflated under fluoroscopic guidance. Following the inflation of the balloon, the physician evaluated nearby anatomical structures for adverse events related to the high-pressure balloon inflations. There were no adverse events following the inflations with the subject balloon catheter. This testing confirms that the modifications to the subject device do not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness.

## 10. Substantial Equivalence Conclusion
The subject and the predicate devices have the same intended use, fundamental scientific technology, principle of operation, and mode of action. Although there are slight differences in the technological characteristics between the subject and predicate devices, these differences have been found to be insignificant overall.
All bench testing of the subject device met its respective acceptance criteria as specified per the individual test report. Each test report was performed using industry accepted standards as listed in Section 12 Standard Summary Reports. The testing was conducted using the final finished device in a manner as similar as possible to how the subject device will be used by the healthcare professional. The acceptance criteria for the subject device is similar to the acceptance criteria for the predicate device. Showing that the subject device meets the acceptance criteria at the same identified risk level (low risk) demonstrates equivalence to the predicate devices. The performance testing further demonstrates equivalence because the subject device is shown to have the same functional characteristics as the predicate devices.
The modifications to the subject Stryker iVAS® Elite Balloon Catheter do not raise new types of safety and effectiveness questions. Therefore, the subject Stryker iVAS® Elite Balloon Catheter is substantially equivalent to the predicate device, the Stryker iVAS® Elite Balloon Catheter (K172116) and secondary predicate Stryker iVAS® Balloon Catheter (K123942)
