Intended Use
The Revolution Peripheral Atherectomy System is intended for atherectomy of the peripheral vasculature and to break apart and remove thrombus from the peripheral arteries in patients with occlusive atherosclerotic disease.
Device Story
Revolution Peripheral Atherectomy System is a sterile, single-use rotational atherectomy device. It consists of a flexible drive shaft with a distal diamond-coated spheroid burr, a guidewire, infusion assembly, collection receptacle, and a reusable power supply. Operated by a physician in a clinical setting, the device tracks over a guidewire to the target lesion. The burr rotates at high speeds (up to 140,000 RPM) to ablate occlusive material into fine particles. These particles are mechanically conveyed proximally through the catheter into an external collection receptacle. The system restores luminal patency in peripheral arteries. Benefits include effective plaque removal and thrombus management in peripheral vasculature.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance was evaluated through dimensional verification, plaque removal efficiency, embolization analysis, fatigue, tensile/torsional, stall, heat generation, kink bend radius, corrosion resistance, flow rate, coating integrity, and comparative surface assessment. Electrical/EMC testing (EN 60601-1, EN 60601-1-2) and extensive biocompatibility testing (cytotoxicity, hemolysis, pyrogenicity, systemic toxicity, intracutaneous, sensitization, complement activation, and thromboresistance) were performed to demonstrate safety and equivalence.
Technological Characteristics
Rotational atherectomy system; diamond-coated spheroid burr; flexible drive shaft; mains-powered reusable power supply; available in 60cm, 145cm, and 200cm lengths; burr diameters 1.33mm to 2.33mm; over-the-wire guidewire compatibility (0.014"); mechanical debris conveyance; ethylene oxide sterilization; single-use patient-contact components.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients with occlusive atherosclerotic disease requiring atherectomy of the peripheral vasculature and removal of thrombus from peripheral arteries.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An intraluminal artery stripper is a device used to perform an endarterectomy (removal of plaque deposits from arterisclerotic arteries.)

Dear Colin Valentis:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's
{1}------------------------------------------------
requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97).

510(k) Summa Per 21 CFR 807.
Technological The proposed Revolution Peripheral Atherectomy System is substantially equivalent to Characteristics the currently marketed Revolution Peripheral Atherectomy System (K191419). The Comparison: subject and predicate devices share the following technological characteristics:
- . Intended Use
- . Fundamental Cutting Mechanism
- Fundamental Scientific Technology .
- Principles of Operation ●
- Conditions of Use ●
- . Sterilization Method
The differences between the subject and predicate device include the addition of several product codes and modifications to the construction and materials of certain components.
Changes in catheter material and drive wire construction were implemented in order to reduce the total stiffness of the system to improve performance in highly tortuous anatomy.
The additional product code offerings include a 2.33mm bit, a 200cm length, and lowprofile sheath options for the 1.66mm and 2.00mm bits which reduces the sheath compatibility to 6F.
