Intended Use
INDIGO Aspiration Catheters and Separators: As part of the INDIGO Aspiration System, the INDIGO Aspiration Catheters and Separators are indicated for the removal of fresh, soft emboli and thrombi from vessels of the peripheral arterial and venous systems, and for the treatment of pulmonary embolism. INDIGO Aspiration Tubing: As part of the INDIGO Aspiration System, the INDIGO Sterile Aspiration Tubing is indicated to connect the INDIGO Aspiration Catheters to the Penumbra Aspiration Pump. Penumbra Aspiration Pump: The Penumbra Aspiration Pump is indicated as a vacuum source for the Penumbra Aspiration Systems.
Device Story
The Select+ Catheter is an accessory for the Indigo Lightning Flash Aspiration System, used to facilitate access to vascular occlusion sites. It is introduced via guide catheter or vascular sheath over a guidewire. Once the site is reached, the Select+ Catheter is removed before the aspiration catheter is deployed. The system uses mechanical aspiration via the Penumbra Aspiration Pump to remove thrombus. The device is used in clinical settings by trained physicians. It provides a pathway for interventional tools, aiding in the navigation to occluded vessels. The device is visible under fluoroscopy.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical or animal studies were conducted. Substantial equivalence was demonstrated through bench-top design verification testing, including dimensional inspection, simulated use, torsion, radiopacity, friction, hub air aspiration, pressure, tensile, elongation, and corrosion testing. Biocompatibility was leveraged from K111380.
Technological Characteristics
Single-use, sterile, disposable catheter. Materials are biocompatible and commonly used in interventional devices. Features H1 or Berenstein tip shapes. Dimensions include increased distal shaft OD and shorter working section length compared to predicate. Sterilized via Ethylene Oxide (EO).
Indications for Use
Indicated for removal of fresh, soft emboli and thrombi from peripheral arterial and venous vessels and treatment of pulmonary embolism. Used by trained physicians in interventional procedures.
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 Samyukta Rangachari:
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 (the 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 available 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.

#### 5. Device Description
The INDIGO® Aspiration System is comprised of the several devices:
- INDIGO Aspiration Catheter
- Penumbra Aspiration Pump
- · INDIGO Aspiration Pump Canister
- INDIGO Aspiration Tubing
- INDIGO Separator
The INDIGO Aspiration System is designed to remove thrombus from the vasculature using mechanical aspiration. The INDIGO Aspiration Catheter targets aspiration from the pump directly to the thrombus. The INDIGO Separator may be used to clear the lumen of the INDIGO Aspiration Catheter should it become blocked with thrombus. The INDIGO Aspiration Catheter is introduced through a guide catheter or vascular sheath into the peripheral vasculature and guided over a guidewire to the site of the primary occlusion. The INDIGO Aspiration Catheter is used with the Penumbra Aspiration Pump to aspirate thrombus from an occluded vessel. As needed, an INDIGO Separator may be deployed from the INDIGO Aspiration Catheter to assist with thrombus removal. The INDIGO Separator is advanced and retracted through the INDIGO Aspiration Catheter at the proximal margin of the primary occlusion to facilitate clearing of the thrombus from the INDIGO Aspiration Catheter tip. The devices are visible under fluoroscopy. For the aspiration source, the INDIGO Aspiration Catheter is used in conjunction with the Penumbra Aspiration Pump, which is connected using the INDIGO Aspiration Tubing and the INDIGO Aspiration Pump Canister. The INDIGO Aspiration Catheter may be provided with a steam shaping mandrel, rotating hemostasis valve, Select Catheter, and introducer. The INDIGO Separator may be provided with an introducer and torque device.
#### Select+ Catheter
The Select+ Catheter is an accessory within kitted configurations of the INDIGO Lightning Flash Aspiration System. The Select+ Catheter is used to aide in access to the site of occlusion and is removed prior to initiating aspiration with the aspiration catheter. The use of the Select+ Catheter to facilitate access to the site of the occlusion is an optional procedural step for INDIGO Lightning Flash Aspiration Catheters. Intended users for this device are physicians who have received appropriate training in interventional techniques.
