# IDENTIFICATION OF MODIFIED DEVICE

The Safe Cross® Support Catheter is a similar in design, materials, mode of operation and intended use to the IntraLuminal Therapeutics, Inc. 0.014" Support Catheter cleared under 510(k) K012169. The device modification includes the devices to be coated with a hydrophilic coating and a new .018" Support Catheter Model. The new .018" Support Catheter is a single lumen intravascular catheter with same intended use. But will accommodate a .018" guide wire.

### DEVICE DESCRIPTION

The Safe Cross® Support Catheter is a single-lumen intravascular catheter intended for percutaneous use. It is designed to use in conjunction with a .014" and .018" quide wire to gain access to locations within the cardiovascular system that are remote from the site of insertion. Once accessed, quide wires may be exchanged within the catheter. The Safe Cross® Support Catheter may also be used to provide a conduit for the delivery of saline solutions or diagnostic contrast agents.

The effective length of the Support Catheter is a nominal 135 cm. The nominal maximum outside diameter is 2.8 French (0.037"). The distal region incorporates a radiopaque material to aid in visualization under fluoroscopy. The inside diameter of the Support Catheter shaft will accommodate a commercially available .014" and .018" quide wire.

The Safe Cross® Support Catheter is packaged in a Tyvek® covered tray and heat-sealed to form a sterile barrier. The packaged catheter is sterilized by ethylene oxide gas. The Safe Cross Coated Support Catheter is provided "STERILE" and "Non-pyrogenic", and is intended for single use only.

#### INTENDED USE

The Safe Cross® Support Catheter is indicated to be used in conjunction with a steerable quidewire in order to access discreet regions of the vasculature. Once the region has been accessed, an exchange of one quidewire for another can occur. The Safe Cross® Support Catheter may also be used to provide a conduit for the delivery of saline solutions or diagnostic contrast agents.

## TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS

The Safe Cross Support Catheter is similar in basic materials, design, construction and mechanical performance to the previously cleared .014" Catheter. The device modification includes the devices to be coated with a Bio-coat Hydak® hydrophilic coating and an additional .018" Support Catheter Model.

#### BIOCOMPATIBILITY AND PERFORMANCE DATA

Biocompatibility testing and in vitro bench studies were conducted to evaluate the biological and performance characteristics of the Support Catheter. Biocompatibility test results indicate that the device materials are biocompatible. Performance test results indicate that the device satisfies functional performance requirements when used as indicated.

#### CONCLUSIONS DRAWN FROM STUDIES

The results of testing demonstrate that the modifications to the Safe Cross Support Catheter are substantially equivalent to the predicate device and are capable of safely and accurately performing the stated intended use.

Dear Ms. Misajon:

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.
