Intended Use
The ValvuloPro Valvuloplasty Balloon Catheter is indicated for balloon aortic vavuloplasty.
Device Story
ValvuloPro is a percutaneous, coaxial catheter with an inflatable balloon at the distal end; used for balloon aortic valvuloplasty. The device is inserted into the vasculature and positioned across the target valvular stenosis using fluoroscopic guidance, facilitated by two radiopaque tantalum marker bands. The physician operates the device via a proximal Y-shaped hub, which provides ports for balloon inflation/deflation and guidewire access. By inflating the balloon, the device mechanically dilates the stenotic valve. The procedure is performed in a clinical setting (e.g., cath lab) by a physician. The device is single-use and sterilized via ethylene oxide. It benefits patients by restoring valve function through mechanical dilation.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance evaluated via dimensional inspection, guidewire/sheath compatibility, balloon compliance, leakage, fatigue, rated burst pressure, inflation/deflation time, simulated use, flexibility, kink resistance, torque strength, and bond strength testing. No clinical data provided.
Technological Characteristics
Coaxial catheter with inflatable balloon; tantalum marker bands; ethylene oxide sterilization. Materials are identical to predicate (K240967) and compliant with ISO 10993-1. Dimensions vary by size configuration. No software or electronic components.
Indications for Use
Indicated for balloon aortic valvuloplasty in patients requiring valvular stenosis treatment.
Regulatory Classification
Identification

Dear Yuying Bi:
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.

# 3. Predicate Device Information
The subject device is compared to the predicate device, ValvuloPro Valvuloplasty Balloon Catheter (K240967, cleared July 31, 2024), to demonstrate substantial equivalence.
# 4. Device Description Summary
The ValvuloPro Valvuloplasty Balloon Catheter is intended for use in balloon aortic valvuloplasty procedures. The device consists of an inflatable balloon mounted at the distal end of a coaxial catheter shaft. The catheter has an effective working length of 130 cm.
The proximal end of the catheter is equipped with a Y-shaped hub, comprising one port dedicated to balloon inflation and deflation and a second port designed for guidewire access. Two radiopaque tantalum marker bands are positioned at the proximal and distal shoulders of the balloon, providing fluoroscopic visualization to facilitate accurate balloon placement across the target valvular stenosis.
The balloon catheter is sterilized using ethylene oxide and is intended for single use only.

This Special 510(k) submission is submitted to expand the available balloon size options of the ValvuloPro Valvuloplasty Balloon Catheters. The intended use, design concept, materials, and performance characteristics of the device remain unchanged.
## 5. Intended Use/ Indications for Use
The ValvuloPro Valvuloplasty Balloon Catheter is indicated for balloon aortic vavuloplasty.
## 6. Comparisons with Predicate Device
At a high level, the subject device and the predicate device share the same intended use and are based on similar technological characteristics, including:
- Over the wire catheter design
- Balloon compliance characteristics
- Catheter materials
- Effective working length
- Method of sterilization (ethylene oxide)
The subject device differs from the predicate device in the following aspects:
- Balloon size configurations
- Expanded compatibility with standard commercially available guidewires
- Expanded compatibility with standard commercially available introducer sheath sizes
These differences are intended to provide additional size options and do not involve changes to the fundamental device design, operating principle, or user interface, and therefore do not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness.
## 7. Biocompatibility
The ValvuloPro Valvuloplasty Balloon Catheter is manufactured using the same materials as those used in the legally marketed predicate device (K240967).
These materials have been previously evaluated for biocompatibility in accordance with ISO 10993-1, based on the nature and duration of body contact, and were found acceptable for their intended intravascular use.
No new patient-contacting materials or changes in material formulation, surface characteristics, or manufacturing processes have been introduced in the subject device. Therefore, the previously generated biocompatibility data associated with K240967 are applicable to the subject device, and no additional biocompatibility testing was necessary.

## 8. Performance Data
The subject device, ValvuloPro Valvuloplasty Balloon Catheter, was evaluated through applicable non-clinical bench testing to verify that the device performs as intended and to support a demonstration of substantial equivalence to the predicate device.
The testing was conducted in accordance with the FDA guidance document Peripheral Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) and Specialty Catheters – Premarket Notification (510(k)) Submissions (April 14, 2023), as well as applicable international standards and internal test methods, as appropriate.
The results of the testing demonstrate that the subject device meets its specified performance requirements and that the addition of new size configurations does not introduce new or increased risks. The non-clinical testing does not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness when compared to the predicate device.
### Non-clinical Testing/Performance Data:
The following bench tests were performed to support the ValvuloPro Valvuloplasty Balloon Catheter:
- Product dimensional inspection
- Guidewire compatibility testing
- Introducer sheath compatibility testing
- Balloon compliance testing
- Balloon leakage testing
- Balloon fatigue testing
- Balloon rated burst pressure (RBP) testing
- Balloon inflation and deflation time testing
- Simulated use testing
- Flexibility and kink resistance testing
- Torque strength testing
- Bond strength testing
In vitro bench testing demonstrated that the ValvuloPro Valvuloplasty Balloon Catheter performed as intended and that the device remains suitable for its intended use.
## 9. Conclusion
Based on a comparison of intended use, technological characteristics, and performance testing, the subject device demonstrates substantial equivalence to the predicate device.
