## Indications for Use

Turbo-Tandem™ System is indicated for atherectomy of infrainguinal arteries.

## Device Story

Turbo-Tandem System consists of laser ablation catheter constrained within guiding catheter; facilitates offset (biased position) of laser ablation catheter from central plane of vessel lumen. Guiding catheter allows circumferential guidance and positioning of laser catheter within vessel. System is 7F sheath compatible; maximum crossing profile 0.160" (4.0mm) with laser catheter extended. Incorporated laser catheter features multiple optical fibers arranged circumferentially around guidewire lumen. Used by physicians in clinical setting for atherectomy procedures. Device provides mechanical guidance to laser ablation catheter to improve vessel lumen access and treatment positioning.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Device integrity testing was performed to support equivalence to predicate devices; all results met specified requirements.

## Technological Characteristics

System comprises a laser ablation catheter and a guiding catheter. 7F sheath compatible. Maximum crossing profile 0.160" (4.0mm). Laser catheter utilizes multiple optical fibers arranged circumferentially around a guidewire lumen. Fiber optic surface area equivalent to 2.0mm laser catheter. No software or electronic components described.

## Regulatory Identification

A percutaneous catheter is a device that is introduced into a vein or artery through the skin using a dilator and a sheath (introducer) or guide wire.

## Predicate Devices

- Spectranetics Turbo Elite™ ([K071227](/device/K071227.md))
- Spectranetics Turbo Booster™ ([K071226](/device/K071226.md))

#### PERFORMANCE STANDARDS

Performance standards do no currently exist for these devices. None established under Section 514.

#### DEVICE DESCRIPTION

The Turbo-Tandern™ System (Laser Guide Catheter with Laser Ablation Catheter) is a laser ablation catheter constrained within a guiding catheter to facilitate the offset (biased position) of the laser ablation catheter. The guiding catheter portion of the Turbo-Tandem System is used to offset the distal end of the incorporated laser catheter from the central plane of the vessel lumen allowing for circumferential guidance and positioning of the laser catheter within the vessel. The Turbo-Tandem System is 7F sheath compatible with a maximum crossing profile of 0.160" (4.0mm) with the laser catheter extended or offset position. The incorporated laser catheter is constructed of multiple optical fibers arranged circumferentially around a guidewire lumen and has a fiber optic surface area similar to a 2.0mm laser catheter.

#### INDICATION FOR USE

Indicated for atherectomy of infrainguinal arteries.

### SUBSTANTIALLY EQUIVALENT DEVICES

In Spectranetics' opinion, the Turbo-Tandem System is believed to be substantially equivalent to the following predicate devices currently in interstate commerce with respect to comparable features, materials of construction and intended use.

- . Spectranetics Turbo Elite™ - K071227
- Spectranetics Turbo Booster™ K071226 ●

Labeling, packaging, and sterilization of the Spectranetics Turbo-Tandem System has not changed from the predicate devices listed above.

### SUMMARY OF STUDIES

Spectranetics performed device integrity testing to support that the Turbo-Tandem System is equivalent to the predicate devices. All device integrity test results for the Spectranetics Turbo-Tandem System met specified requirements.

### CONCLUSION (STATEMENT OF EQUIVALENCE)

Through data and information presented, numerous similarities support a determination of substantial equivalence, and therefore market clearance of the Spectranetics Turbo-Tandem™ System through this STED Premarket Notification.

Dear Ms. Murguia:

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 additional controls.
