The Affinity Fusion Cardiotomy/Venous Reservoir with Balance Biosurface is intended to be used in an extracorporeal perfusion circuit to collect venous and cardiotomy suctioned blood during routine cardiopulmonary procedures up to 6 hours in duration. The CVR is also intended for use during vacuum assisted venous drainage (VAVD) procedures. The Affinity Fusion Cardiotomy/Venous Reservoir with Balance Biosurface is also intended for use after open heart surgery to collect autologous blood from the chest and to aseptically return the blood to the patient for blood volume replacement.

# Device Description
The Affinity Fusion Oxygenator is intended to be used in an extracorporeal perfusion blood circuit to oxygenate and remove carbon dioxide from the blood and to cool or warm the blood during routine cardiopulmonary bypass procedures up to 6 hours in duration. The Affinity Fusion Oxygenator contains both an integrated arterial filter and integrated heat exchanger. The Affinity Fusion Oxygenator is a microporous, hollow-fiber, gas-exchange devices available with Cortiva BioActive Surface or Balance Biosurface bonded to the blood contacting surface of the integrated arterial filter is designed to filter from the circuit microemboli larger than the specified micron size from the circuit for periods up to six hours during cardiopulmonary bypass surgery. Some models of the Affinity Fusion Oxygenator are packaged with an Affinity Fusion Cardiotomy/Venous Reservoir (CVR) with Balance Biosurface which is designed to be an integral part of a cardiopulmonary bypass circuit for use during cardiac surgery. The Affinity Fusion CVR is designed to collect venous and cardiotomy suctioned blood during routine cardiopulmonary procedures up to six (6) hours in duration. Additionally, the Affinity Fusion CVR may be used during vacuum assisted venous drainage (VAVD) procedures and collect autologous blood from the chest and to aseptically return the blood to the patient for blood volume replacement during open heart surgery.
# Principles of Operation
Affinity Oxygenators are designed to be an integral part of the cardiopulmonary heart bypass circuit for use during cardiac surgery. The Affinity Oxygenators are intended to be used in an extracorporeal perfusion circuit to oxygenate and remove carbon dioxide from the blood and to cool or warm the blood during routine cardiopulmonary bypass procedures up to 6 hours in duration.
The oxygenator is composed of the "fiber bundle" which is the gas exchange portion of an oxygenator. The "fiber bundle" is comprised of tiny hollow tubes, or "hollow fibers" that consist of a microporous membrane that allows for gas exchange. Blood flows over the outside surfaces of the hollow fibers while fresh gas is delivered to the inside of the fibers allowing for gas exchange.
Blood that comes from the patient is delivered through a pump to the oxygenator and other auxiliary devices, and back to the patient. The oxygenator can be connected to a heater/cooler device, recirculation circuit, cardioplegia circuit, and the main blood path. The oxygenator is under constant fluid pressure. There is pressure exerted on the blood-side of the device from the blood pump and patient, the water-
{8}------------------------------------------------
side of the device due to the flow of the heater-cooler for water, and the gas-side of the device due to the flow of gases through the device. The water-side of the oxygenator is connected to a heater/cooler device to enable temperature control of the blood.

# Comparison of Technological Characteristics with the Predicate Device
A comparison of the modified product to the currently marketed predicate products (K203111) indicates the following similarities:
- Intended Use / Indications for use
- Contraindications
- . Operating Principle
- Mechanism of action
- Performance
- . Shelf Life
- Packaging configuration and Materials
- Sterilization process and requirements
- Did not require clinical data to verify safety and efficacy
When compared to the predicate devices, the Affinity Fusion Oxygenator Devices presented in this submission have the following differences:
- Temperature Monitoring Adapter (TMA) insert component material and insertion depth
### Performance Data
Operation and performance qualification, biocompatibility rationale and the design characterization activities were completed, and they have led to the conclusion that no newly emerging hazards or risks were identified.
{10}------------------------------------------------
# Operation Qualification and Performance Qualification (OQ/PQ)
Operation qualification and performance qualification was carried out to provide objective evidence that the manufacturing process consistently produces product that meets predetermined requirements under challenge and normal operating conditions respectively, including pressure integrity, burst, torgue and insertion depth testing.
### Design Characterization
The bond between the new material and adhesive was evaluated utilizing the interfacial surface, geometry, material and adhesive compatibility. This evaluation indicated improved bond performance relative to the current material. The PQ torque data for the new TMA serves as an approximation of the long-term shelf-life performance of the TMA bond.
### Biocompatibility Assessment
A biocompatibility assessment was carried out to demonstrate that new material, which is currently used in the Affinity Pixie CVR Oxygenator, is biocompatible per the ISO 10993 standard and does not require new biocompatibility testing. The unique interaction of the new material with the adhesive is non-patient contacting. The new TMA creates a seal preventing contact with the circulating blood volume, and this interference fit has been verified through the part specifications, along with random sampling and statistical modeling.
### Conclusion
Medtronic has demonstrated through testing completed that the modifications made to the Affinity Fusion Oxygenator System described in this submission result in a substantially equivalent device because the fundamental scientific principle, operating principle, design features and intended use are unchanged from the predicate device.
