Intended Use
The ClotTriever Thrombectomy System is indicated for: - The non-surgical removal of thrombi and emboli from blood vessels. - Injection, infusion, and/or aspiration of contrast media and other fluids into or from a blood vessel. The ClotTriever Thrombectomy System is intended for use in the peripheral vasculature including deep vein thrombosis (DVT).
Device Story
ClotTriever BOLD Catheter is a single-use, sterile embolectomy catheter for peripheral vasculature. Device consists of reinforced polymeric coaxial shafts with an expandable nitinol coring element and thrombus collection bag. Operated by physicians in clinical settings; advanced into vessel beyond clot; self-expanding net deployed to core, separate, and entrap thrombus; net collapsed and retracted into sheath with entrapped clot. Aspiration performed via 60 cc syringe. Modifications include surface treatment of collection bag, dimensional changes to bag, handle plunger, and coring element weld ring, and spring adjustments. Radiopaque distal tips aid fluoroscopic visualization. Benefits include non-surgical thrombus removal.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data required. Verification and validation testing included packaging, de-airing/flushing, radial force, deployment/retraction forces, leakage, corrosion resistance, simulated use, torque, particulate matter, and clot removal performance.
Technological Characteristics
Reinforced polymeric coaxial shafts; nitinol coring element and collection bag; titanium oxide surface treatment on collection bag; radiopaque distal tips; 12 Fr OD; 0.035" guidewire compatibility; EO sterilization (SAL 10-6).
Indications for Use
Indicated for non-surgical removal of thrombi and emboli from peripheral blood vessels, including deep vein thrombosis (DVT), and for injection, infusion, or aspiration of fluids/contrast media.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An embolectomy catheter is a balloon-tipped catheter that is used to remove thromboemboli, i.e., blood clots which have migrated in blood vessels from one site in the vascular tree to another.

Dear Kaitlyn Weinkauf:
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.
