Intended Use
The Optima Coil System is intended for use in the peripheral and neuro-vasculature to endovascularly obstruct or occlude blood flow in vascular abnormalities of the neurovascular and peripheral vessels.
Device Story
Optima Coil System (OptiOne) consists of platinum/tungsten embolization coils attached to a delivery pusher; used for endovascular embolization of intracranial aneurysms and peripheral vascular abnormalities. Device inserted via microcatheter under angiographic visualization; coils deployed into aneurysm to create blood stasis and thrombosis. Detachment performed via external controller. Used in clinical settings by physicians; provides permanent vascular occlusion. Benefits include reduced flow into aneurysms and improved anchoring via complex helical/box coil designs. Subject device updates include modified coil lengths, secondary shapes, and wire diameters compared to predicate.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Testing included visual inspection, dimensional inspection, resistance checks, and simulated use in a clinically relevant model. All tests met established acceptance criteria.
Indicated for endovascular embolization of intracranial aneurysms and other neurovascular abnormalities (e.g., arteriovenous malformations, arteriovenous fistulae); vascular occlusion of blood vessels within the neurovascular system to permanently obstruct blood flow to an aneurysm or other vascular malformation; and arterial and venous embolizations in the peripheral vasculature.
Regulatory Classification
Identification

Dear Kavita Chandrashekar:
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"

## Device Description:
The Optima Coil System is a series of specialized coils that are inserted into the vasculature under angiographic visualization to embolize intracranial aneurysms and other vascular anomalies. The system consists of an embolization coil implant comprised of platinum and tungsten, affixed to a delivery pusher to facilitate insertion into the hub of a microcatheter. The system is available in various shapes, lengths, and sizes. The devices are to be placed into aneurysms to create blood stasis, reducing flow into the aneurysm and thrombosing the aneurysm. Upon positioning coils into the aneurysm, the coils are detached from the delivery pusher in a serial manner until the aneurysm is occluded.
## Indications for Use:
The Optima Coil System is intended for the endovascular embolization of intracranial aneurysms and other neurovascular abnormalities such as arteriovenous malformations and arteriovenous fistulae. The Optima Coil System is also intended for vascular occlusion of blood vessels within the neurovascular system to permanently obstruct blood flow to an aneurysm or other vascular malformation and for arterial and venous embolizations in the peripheral vasculature.
## Intended Use:
The Optima Coil System is intended for use in the peripheral and neuro-vasculature to endovascularly obstruct or occlude blood flow in vascular abnormalities of the neurovascular and peripheral vessels.

The modified OptiOne Coil System and the predicate Optima Packing Coil System differ in the following:
- Implementation of an updated implant design with helical loops and a series of complex boxes that will grab and anchor into the aneurysm. This update will also reduce the need for additional coiling following deployment of the OptiONE implant. The differences between the subject and predicate devices do not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness.
**Performance Data – Bench:**
The following non-clinical bench testing was performed to evaluate the device changes and to demonstrate substantial equivalence of the OptiOne Coil System to the predicate device:
| Test | Acceptance Criteria | Results |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Visual Inspection, Dimensional Inspection, and Resistance Check | The test samples shall meet established test acceptance criteria for visual physical damage, secondary diameter and length, and resistance. | Pass |
| Simulated Use | The test samples shall be prepared in accordance with the instructions for use and meet established test acceptance criteria for device performance in a clinically relevant model. | Pass |
**Conclusion:**
There is no change to the intended use, materials, principles of operation or performance requirements of the modified OptiOne Coil System in comparison to the predicate device (K252700). The successful completion of non-clinical bench testing demonstrates that the subject OptiOne Coil System is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
