Intended Use
The Extension tube is intended as a connecting line for injection of a contrast and saline during coronary angiography procedures.
Device Story
Extension tube serves as a fluid pathway for contrast media and saline delivery during coronary angiography. Device consists of tubing, male/female luer connectors, Y-type needle access adapters, rotary connectors, and protective caps. Operated by clinicians in clinical settings; device connects mechanical injector syringes to angiographic catheters. Clinician manually prepares device by removing caps, securing luer connections, and purging air bubbles; injector is then programmed to deliver contrast per physician orders. Device facilitates high-pressure fluid transfer (up to 1200 psi) to enable diagnostic imaging. Benefits include reliable, sterile fluid delivery for visualization of coronary vasculature.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence supported by bench performance testing including appearance, leakage, tensile strength, flow rate, check valve performance, particulate contamination, and chemical/extractable analysis per ISO 8536 and USP <788>. Biocompatibility testing performed per ISO 10993-1 (cytotoxicity, sensitization, irritation, acute systemic toxicity, pyrogenicity, and hemolysis).
Technological Characteristics
Single-use, sterile (EO) extension tubing. Materials include luer connectors, Y-adapters, and tubing. Pressure rating up to 1200 psi. Conical fittings comply with ISO 80369-7. Lengths 23-404 cm; inner diameters 1.5-2.5 mm. Biocompatibility per ISO 10993. Sterilization validated per ISO 11135.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients undergoing coronary angiography procedures requiring the delivery of contrast media and saline via a connecting line between an angiographic syringe and catheter.
Regulatory Classification
Special Controls

Dear Guangdong Zhang:
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.
Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download).
