## Indications for Use

Intended for use in small vessel or superselective anatomy for diagnostic and interventional procedures including peripheral use.

## Device Story

Cxi Support Catheter is a 2.6 French catheter designed for navigation in small vessel or superselective anatomy. Device features hydrophilic coating to facilitate insertion and four radiopaque markers for fluoroscopic visualization. Compatible with 0.018-inch (0.45mm) wire guides; available in 90cm and 150cm lengths with straight or angled distal tips. Used by clinicians in interventional settings to support diagnostic and interventional procedures. Device provides a pathway for wire guides and contrast media delivery, aiding in precise anatomical access. Benefits include improved maneuverability and visualization during peripheral vascular interventions.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Testing included freedom of leakage, burst pressure, tensile strength, bending, flow rate, and biocompatibility. No clinical data provided.

## Technological Characteristics

2.6 French catheter; hydrophilic coating; four radiopaque markers; 0.018-inch (0.45mm) wire guide compatibility; 90cm and 150cm lengths; straight or angled distal tip. Mechanical device; no energy source or software.

## Regulatory Identification

A continuous flush catheter is an attachment to a catheter-transducer system that permits continuous intravascular flushing at a slow infusion rate for the purpose of eliminating clotting, back-leakage, and waveform damping.

Special 510(k) Premarket Notification MiraFlex 18 Microcatheter COOK INCORPORATED

#### 510(k) Summary

### Submitted By:

Karen Bradburn, RAC Senior Regulatory Affairs Specialist Cook Incorporated 750 Daniels Way, PO Box 489 Bloomington, IN 47402 812-339-2235

## Device:

| Trade Name:              |
|--------------------------|
| Proposed Classification: |

Cxi Support Catheter Catheter, Continuous Flush KRA (21 CFR §870.1250)

## Indications for Use:

Intended for use in small vessel or superselective anatomy for diagnostic and interventional procedures including peripheral use.

## Predicate Devices:

The Cxi Support Catheter is similar in terms of intended use, principles of operation, materials of construction and technological characteristics to predicate devices reviewed as devices for use in small vessel or superselective anatomy for diagnostic and interventional procedures.

## Device Description:

The Cxi Support Catheter consists of a 2.6 French catheter with hydrophilic coating. The catheter includes four (4) radiopaque markers to assist in fluoroscopic visualization of the catheter during use. The inner diameter allows acceptance of a 0.018-inch (0.45mm) wire guide. The catheter is available in two lengths, 90 and 150 cm, with a straight or angled distal tip.

## Substantial Equivalence:

The Cxi Support Catheter is similar to catheters in commercial distribution for use in small vessel or superselective anatomy for diagnostics and interventional procedures. The device most similar is the MiraFlex 18 Microcatheter cleared for marketing on December 8, 2005 (D.C.#K052841) and March 6, 2006 (D.C.#K060224).

The similar indications for use, principles of operation, technological characteristics and performance testing results for the Cxi Support Catheter as compared to the predicate device supports a determination of substantial equivalency.

{1}------------------------------------------------

# Test Data:

The Cxi Support Catheter was subjected to the following tests to assure reliable design and performance under specified testing parameters. These tests were comprised of:

- Freedom of Leakage 1.
- 2. Burst Pressure
- 3. Tensile Strength
- 4. Bending
- 5. Flow Rate
- Biocompatibility 6.

The results of these tests provide reasonable assurance that the device has been designed and tested to assure conformance to the requirements for its use as a catheter guide wire.

Dear Ms. Bradburn:

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.
