Intended Use
The Cook® Spectrum® 2 MRC Central Venous Catheter is indicated to provide short-term ( <30 days) central venous access intended for: - Continuous or intermittent drug infusion - · Central venous blood pressure monitoring (CVP) - · Acute hyperalimentation - · Blood sampling - Delivery of whole blood or blood products - · Simultaneous, separate infusion of drugs and - · Power injection of contrast media (max 300 psi). The activity of the antimicrobial agents, minocycline, rifampin and chlorhexidine is located at the internal and external catheter surfaces and is not intended for treatment of existing infections. This combination of antimicrobials has been shown to reduce microbial colonization of the catheter. The effectiveness was evaluated using in vitro methods; no correlation between in vitro and clinical outcome has currently been ascertained. Controlled studies of this product have not been conducted in pregnant women, pediatic or neomatal patients. The use of this catheter should be weighed against any possible risk. Consider CDC Guidelines and institutional protocols for catheter exchange.

## 5. Device Description:
The Cook® Spectrum® 2 MRC Central Venous Catheter is a single-use, antibiotic impregnated, antimicrobial coated, power injectable catheter that is percutaneously inserted into the vasculature using the Seldinger technique, and advanced over a wire guide until its tip is positioned above the superior vena cava-right atrium (SVC-RA) junction within the lower third of the SVC. The Cook® Spectrum® 2 MRC Central Venous Catheter, 7 Fr triple lumen CVC, is made from an aliphatic polyether-based polyurethane catheter shaft with a radiopaque constituent and a bonded soft distal tip. The catheter shaft is impregnated with Spectrum® (minocycline, rifampin) antimicrobial agents and coated with chlorhexidine antiseptic. The Cook® Spectrum® 2 MRC Central Venous Catheter is not intended for treatment of existing infections in patients; the presence of the three antimicrobial agents has been shown to reduce microbial colonization of the catheter. The antimicrobial activity of these agents is localized to the internal and external catheter surfaces. The working length (15, 20, or 25 cm) of the catheter is measured from distal tip to the double bar line approximately 1.5 cm distal to the manifold. The catheter shaft features centimeter length markings. The proximal portion of the Cook® Spectrum® 2 MRC Central Venous Catheter, like the predicate catheter, has three extension tubes with injection-molded Luer hubs connected to a manifold. The injectionmolded manifold with suture wings serves as the transition point for lumens of the extension tubes into each lumen of the catheter shaft. All three lumens are power injectable; the maximum flow rate is labeled on the hub of each extension tube.

## Discussions of differences in technological characteristics
## Comment 1
Added specificity to labeling regarding general use, the reduction of microbial colonization established through in vitro methods, special patient populations, indwell times/catheter exchanges, and chlorhexidine hypersensitivity potential. Reduction of microbial colonization of the catheter was demonstrated through microbiological testing using an In Vitro Microbial Colonization Model and clinically virulent microorganisms.
## Comment 2
Technological design modifications are intended to increase flexibility and improve usability. The following tests were performed to demonstrate substantial equivalence: tensile strength, flow rate, power injection, static burst, liquid leakage, air leakage, kink (flow), MRI safety. radiopacity, luer hub compatibility, bending fatigue, insertability, chemical injectate compatibility, extension tube clamp functionality, dimensional testing, and sterilization. The difference between the proposed device and the predicate does not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness and that the device is as safe and effective as a legally marketed device.
{9}------------------------------------------------

{10}------------------------------------------------
Particulate matter testing was conducted in accordance with USP<788> Particulate Matter in Injection and met the USP acceptance criteria.
### Microbiological evaluations
The Cook® Spectrum® 2 MRC Central Venous Catheter has been studied in an In Vitro Microbial Colonization Model that simulated elution of antimicrobial agents over intravascular dwell times up to 4 weeks. Results from the microbiological performance testing including lack of development of antimicrobial resistance, and comparison of log reductions in colonizing microbe concentrations, demonstrated that the microbiological performance of the Cook® Spectrum® 2 MRC Central Venous Catheter is substantially equivalent to the predicate and reference devices.
## Sterility, Shipping and Shelf life
- Terminal sterilization is accomplished by electron-beam processing of the . subject catheter within a sealed (inner) foil pouch. Secondary EO sterilization is used to sterilize the outside of the foil pouch and the airspace within the tray or (outer) Tyvek® pouch. Applicable standards include:
- o Terminal sterilization: Method 1 BS EN ISO 11137-1:2015+A2:2019
- Secondary EO sterilization: Half-cycle method ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11135-1
- EO residuals: ISO 10993-7:2008/(R)2012
- . Package integrity testing, after environmental conditioning and simulated transportation in accordance with ISTA 3A, was conducted on the final, packaged, and sterile devices.
- Sterile Barrier Packaging Testing was performed on the proposed device . according to these standards:
- Seal strength ASTM F88/F88-15
- Dye penetration ASTM F1929-15
{11}------------------------------------------------
- Shelf life of 6 months was validated using the FDA-recognized standard . ASTM F1980-16 Standard Guide for Accelerated Aging of Sterile Barrier Systems for Medical Devices
# 9. Conclusions:
The differences between the predicate and the subject device do not raise any new or different questions of safety or effectiveness. The Cook® Spectrum® 2 MRC Central Venous Catheter is substantially equivalent to the Cook® Spectrum®/Spectrum® Glide Central Venous Catheter with respect to the indications for use, target populations, treatment method, and technological characteristics.
