## Indications for Use

The intended use of the SCOUT Accessories for Implanting in the Coronary Sinus is for introducing legally marketed leads into the vessels of the left heart via the coronary sinus.

## Device Story

SCOUT Accessories are a set of procedural tools used to facilitate the implantation of cardiac leads into the left heart via the coronary sinus. The kit includes a hemostatic valve, guiding catheters (peel-away long sheaths), a dilator, an 11F peel-away introducer, a guidewire, a cannula, a syringe body, and a peel tool. These components are used by clinicians in a clinical setting to provide a delivery pathway for leads. The device functions as a mechanical delivery system; it does not involve electronic processing, software, or automated decision-making. The system is designed to be functionally equivalent to existing delivery systems, assisting the physician in navigating the coronary sinus to ensure proper lead placement, which benefits the patient by enabling effective cardiac pacing or defibrillation therapy.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only.

## Technological Characteristics

The device consists of a kit of mechanical accessories including catheters, sheaths, dilators, and guidewires. Materials and design are similar to predicate delivery systems. The device is non-electronic, standalone, and does not contain software or algorithms.

## Regulatory Identification

A catheter guide wire is a coiled wire that is designed to fit inside a percutaneous catheter for the purpose of directing the catheter through a blood vessel.

## Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The device, when it is a torque device that is manually operated, non-patient contacting, and intended to manipulate non-cerebral vascular guide wires, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 870.9.

## Predicate Devices

- Medtronic LDS 6216 Left-Heart Delivery System ([K012130](/device/K012130.md))

Dear Mr. Brumbaugh:

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 (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. 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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such 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.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 21 CFR Part 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4646.
