The device is intended to pass fluids to or from the urinary tract.
Device Story
Dual lumen Foley catheter; manufactured from silicone; coated with proprietary OLIGON™ silver-based material. Device functions by passing fluids to or from urinary tract; silver coating actively releases silver ions when exposed to saline. Supplied sterile for single use in 16 Fr and 18 Fr sizes. Used in clinical settings for urinary drainage. Silver ion release provides antimicrobial properties; intended to reduce potential for catheter-associated complications.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Laboratory testing demonstrated silver ion release rates of ≥ 5.0 x 10-5 mg/cm2·hour on first extraction. 16 Fr catheters released 3.4 mg of silver over 28 days; 18 Fr catheters released 3.6 mg over 28 days. Biocompatibility evaluated per ANSI/AAMI/ISO 10993.
Technological Characteristics
100% silicone dual lumen Foley catheter; coated with silver-based OLIGON™ material. Conforms to ASTM F 623-89. Sterilized via EtO (ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11135). Sizes: 16 Fr and 18 Fr.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring a urinary drainage catheter to pass fluids to or from the urinary tract.
Regulatory Classification
Identification

The OLIGON™ FOLEY CATHETER is an all Description of the Device: siliconc, dual lumen Folcy catheter (manufactured for Implemed, Inc. by Kendall I Icalthcare Products Company) which has been coated with Implemed's proprietary OLIGON'IM matcrial. The OLIGON™ coating is a patented silver based coating which has been shown in laboratory testing to actively release silver ions when exposed to saline. Under these test conditions, the 16 Fr catheters (91 cnt surface area) released a total of 3,4 milligrams of silver over 28 days and the 18 Fr catheters (96 cm2 surface arca) would release a total of 3.6 milligrams of silver over 28 days.
The OLIGON™ FOLEY CATHETER is supplied in two sizes; 16 Fr. and 18 Fr. (outer diameler). OLIGON™ Folcy catheters are supplied storile for single use. Individual catheters are packaged in sterilizable Tyvek/mylar pouches.
Intended Use of the Device: The subject device has the same intended use as the prodicate device. The device is intended to pass fluids to or from the urinary lract.
Technological Characteristics: The technological characteristics of the OLIGON™ FOLEY CATHETER are substantially equivalent to those of the predicate device. Both the subject device and the predicate device conform to the requirements of the ASTM Standard F 623-89, entitled Standard Performance Specification for Foley Catheter. In addition, the OLIGON™ FOLEY CATHETER has been evaluated according to the applicable Parts of the

ANSI/AAMI/ISO Standard 10993: Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices and has successfully met the biocompatibility requirements contained within the standard. Both the subject device and the prodicate device are supplied sterille via EtO sterilization processes conforming to the ANSUAAMI/ISO Standard 11135, entitled Medical Devices - Validation and Routine Control of Ethylene Oxide Sterilization.
Functionally the OLIGON™ FOLEY CATHETER and the Kendall Curity 100% Silicone Folcy Cathetcr are identical with respect to intended use of the catheter to pass fluids to and from the urinary tract. The only technological difference in the subject device and predicate device concerns the OLIGON™ coating of the OLIGON™ FOLEY CATHETER. The OLIGON™ coating applied to the surface of the subject device has becn shown to release silver ions at a rate of ≥ 5.0 x 10-5 mg/cm2 · hour on first extraction. The predicate device does not have such a coating.
