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
{1}------------------------------------------------
statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's 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 (QS) 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).

| Predicate Device | ViewFlex™ Xtra ICE Catheter (K133853) |
| Device Description | The ViewFlex™ Xtra Reprocessed ICE Catheter is a temporary intracardiac<br>ultrasound catheter intended for use in patients to accurately visualize cardiac<br>structures, blood flow and other devices within the heart when connected to a<br>compatible intracardiac ultrasound console via the compatible ViewFlex™<br>Catheter Interface Module. Examples of the types of other devices that can be<br>visualized include, and are not limited to, intracardiac catheters, septal occluders,<br>delivery wires, delivery sheaths, sizing balloons and transseptal needles. The use<br>of these images is limited to visualization with no direct or indirect diagnostic use.<br>The ViewFlex™ Xtra Reprocessed ICE Catheter has a useable length of 90 cm,<br>with a 9 French (F) shaft with an ultrasound transducer. A 10F introducer is<br>recommended for use with this catheter for insertion into the femoral or jugular<br>veins. The catheter tip has four-directional deflection allowing for Left-Right and<br>Posterior-Anterior deflection, with an angle of at least 120 degrees in each<br>direction.<br>The ViewFlex™ Xtra Reprocessed ICE Catheter is compatible with the<br>ViewMate™ Z, ViewMate™ and Philips CX50 ultrasound consoles.<br>The ViewFlex™ Xtra Reprocessed Reprocess Catheter has been reprocessed by<br>Abbott one (1) time. Each catheter includes marking on the proximal handle and<br>connector that identify the catheter status. Device is taken out of service after<br>reaching the maximum number of reprocessing cycles. Abbott restricts its<br>reprocessing to exclude devices previously reprocessed by other reprocessors. |
| Model Number | D087031-R |
| Indication For Use | The ViewFlex™ Xtra Reprocessed ICE Catheter is indicated for use in adult and<br>adolescent pediatric patients to visualize cardiac structures, blood flow and other<br>devices within the heart |
| Comparison | Both the subject and predicate devices have the same intended use, indications<br>for use and method of operation. There are no changes to the claims, clinical<br>applications, patient populations, or performance specifications. The subject<br>device is reprocessed 1 time (1X) after clinical use of the predicate device.<br>Abbott's reprocessing includes removal of visible soil and decontamination.<br>Each device is inspected and functionally tested prior to packaging, labeling and<br>sterilizing.<br>The differences between the ViewFlex™ Xtra Reprocessed ICE Catheter and the<br>predicate device does not raise any new questions of safety and effectiveness. |
| Functional and Safety<br>Testing | Design verification activities were performed with their respective acceptance<br>criteria to ensure that the 1X reprocessing from the clinically used ViewFlex™<br>Xtra ICE Catheter does not affect the safety or effectiveness of the device. All<br>testing performed met the established performance specifications. |
| | Testing |
| | The ViewFlex™ Xtra Reprocessed ICE Catheter was developed and tested in<br>accordance with the following industry guidance documents and standards: |
| | -- Guidance for Industry and FDA staff: Medical Device User Fee and<br>Modernization Act of 2002, Validation Data in Premarket Notification<br>Submissions (510(k)s) for Reprocessed Single-Use Medical Devices |
| | - EN ISO 14971:2019 Medical Devices – Application of Risk Management to<br>Medical Devices |
| | Types of Testing Performed |
| | - Cleaning Validation |
| | - Biocompatibility |
| | - Sterilization |
| | - Design validation |
| | - Design verification |
| | - Packaging verification |
| Conclusion | The technological characteristics for the subject device, and the indications for<br>use are the same as the predicate device. Based on this and the data provided in<br>this pre-market notification, the subject device and predicate device have been<br>demonstrated to be substantially equivalent. |
