The device consists of a core wire (Ni/Ti alloy and stainless steel), a radiopaque Pt/Ni alloy tip coil, and a surface coating (silicone and/or hydrophilic). It is operated manually by a physician in a clinical setting. The wire features varying tip flexibilities (Extra Floppy, Floppy, Intermediate) and is available in standard or hyper-coating versions. Accessories include a torque device, inserter, and stylet. The device is used to navigate the vasculature to the target site, allowing the physician to track catheters over the wire to perform angioplasty, potentially benefiting patients by enabling minimally invasive treatment of coronary or peripheral arterial stenoses. ## Clinical Evidence Bench testing only. Verification tests included dimensional inspection, tip sliding resistance, tensile strength (tip and shaft), tip butting load, wire stability, bend strength, seal strength, reshapability, torque strength/ability, tip flexibility, and coating integrity. Biocompatibility testing was conducted per ISO-10993 for externally communicating devices in contact with circulating blood. ## Technological Characteristics Coil-type guide wire; core wire (Ni/Ti alloy and stainless steel); radiopaque Pt/Ni alloy tip coil; surface coating (silicone and PTFE/hydrophilic); 0.014" diameter; 180cm/300cm lengths; manual operation; ethylene oxide sterilization (SAL 10^-6). ## 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 - Radifocus® Glidewire for Coronary Use with Platinum or Gold Coil ([K961445](/device/K961445.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

Device Name APR 2 7 2007 | Proprietary Name | Runthrough NS | |---------------------|-----------------------| | Classification Name | Wire, Guide, Catheter | | Common Name | Guide Wire | #### B. Intended Use The Runthrouh NS are used to facilitate placement of balloon dilatation catheters for percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) and/or percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA). Note: This is the same intended use as the predicate device - Radifocus® Glidewire for Coronary Use with Platinum or Gold Coil, K961445. #### C. Device Description The Runthrough NS is a coil-type guide wire. The main components of the wire include a core wire, a tip coil, a tip coil marker, and surface coating. The core wire is constructed of a Ni/Ti alloy wire and a stainless steel wire joined together. The tip coil marker, a Pt/Ni alloy, is radiopaque. The tip coil has lubricous coating (silicone coating) and/or hydrophilic coating on the surface depending on product code. The shaft is surfacecoated with silicone and PTFE. Tip flexibility can be selected among three types, Extra Floppy, Floppy, and Intermediate, flexibility decreasing in the named order. The wire is also available in a hyper-coating type which is more lubricous than the standard wire. The device may be accompanied by a torque device, inserter, and stylet accessories. ## D. Principle Of Operation / Technology The Runthrough NS is operated manually or by a manual process. {1}------------------------------------------------ # E. Design / Materials Differences in materials between the modified device and the predicate device the Radifocus® Glidewire for Coronary Use with Platinum or Gold Coil cleared under K961445 raise no new issues of safety and effectiveness. # F.

Performance The following verification tests were performed to demonstrate the substantial equivalence of the modified device (Runthrough NS) to the unmodified device (Radifocus® Glidewire for Coronary Use with Platinum or Gold Coil, K961445). - . Dimensional Inspection - Tip sliding resistance test - Tensile strength of tip . - Tip butting load ● - Tensile strength of shaft . - Wire stability in holder loop . - Bend strength ● - Seal strength of packaging . - Reshapability . - Torque Strength ● - Torqueability . - Tip Flexibility . - Coating Adherence/Integrity . None of the data raises any new issues of safety and effectiveness. Additionally, a risk analysis was conducted and there were no new issues of safety and effectiveness. Therefore the performance of the modified Runthrough NS is substantially equivalent to the performance of the predicate device the Radifocus® Glidewire for Coronary Use with Platinum or Gold Coil, K961445. #### H. Additional Safety Information Manufacturing controls include visual, functional, dimensional and sterility tests. Blood contacting materials were tested in accordance with the tests recommended in the FDA General Program Memorandum #G95-1 (5/1/95): Use of International Standard ISO-10993, "Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices Part-1: Evaluation and Testing". The guide wire is classified as Externally Communicating Devices, Circulating Blood, Limited Contact (< 24 hrs). Results of the testing demonstrate that the blood contacting materials are biocompatible. {3}------------------------------------------------ Sterilization conditions have been validated in accordance with ANSI / AAMI / ISO 11135-1994, Medical Devices – Validation and routine control of ethylene oxide sterilization and EN 550. The device is sterilized to a SAL of 10-6. #### H. Substantial Equivalence The modified Runthrough NS is substantially equivalent in intended use, design, technology/principles of operation, materials and performance to the predicate device the Radifocus® Glidewire for Coronary Use with Platinum or Gold Coil, K961445. Differences between the two devices do not raise any significant issues of safety or effectiveness. # I. Submitter Information | Prepared By: | Mr. Mark Unterreiner
