## Indications for Use

The Fox sv PTA Catheter is intended for dilatation of lesions in the femoral, renal, iliac, popliteal, peroneal, and profunda arteries and native or synthetic arteriovenous dialysis fistulae. This catheter is not intended for the expansion or delivery of stents.

## Device Story

Over-the-wire PTA catheter; double lumen design; balloon located at distal tip. One lumen for balloon inflation; second lumen for 0.018" guidewire access. Balloon expands to known diameter at specific pressures. Used by physicians in clinical settings for percutaneous transluminal angioplasty. Device facilitates lesion dilatation to improve vessel patency. Modification involves extending catheter length from 135cm to 150cm.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only; no clinical data.

## Technological Characteristics

Double lumen over-the-wire PTA catheter; balloon dilatation mechanism; 0.018" guidewire compatibility; 150cm length. No specific material standards or software 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

- Fox sv PTA Catheter ([K062843](/device/K062843.md))

#### 4.1 Predicate Devices

The modified Fox™ sv PTA Catheter is substantially equivalent to the Fox sv PTA Catheter (K062843) cleared 10/17/2006 and the Cordis® SAVVY® PTA Dilatation Catheter (K942094) cleared 11/1/1994. The change made to the Fox sv PTA Catheter focuses on the catheter.

#### 4.2 Device Description

The Fox sv PTA Catheter is a standard over-the-wire PTA catheter. The double lumen catheter has a balloon located near the distal tip. One lumen is used for inflation of the balloon, while the second lumen allows access to the distal tip of the catheter for guidewire insertion (maximum 0.018"). The balloon material expands to a known diameter at specific pressures.

#### 4.3 Intended Use

The intended use for the device has not changed as a result of the modification.

The Fox sv PTA Catheter is intended for dilatation of lesions in the femoral, renal, iliac, popliteal, peroneal, and profunda arteries and native or synthetic 

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

arteriovenous dialysis fistulae. This catheter is not intended for the expansion or delivery of stents.

# 4.4 Summary of Technological Characteristics Compared to Predicate Devices

The Fox™ sv PTA Catheter subject device is identical in technological characteristics, with the exception of the catheter length, to the Fox sv PTA Catheter predicate device. The subject device catheter has been extended to 150cm from 135cm. The subject device is substantially equivalent to the Cordis® SAVVY® PTA Catheter with respect to product code, classification section, classification name, intended use, contraindications, catheter length, balloon diameters and lengths, introducer sheath size, and guidewire compatibility.

### 4.5 Summary of Substantial Equivalence

The Fox sv PTA Catheter subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. The results of the in vitro bench tests and analyses and biocompatibility testing demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the Fox sv PTA Catheter subject device.
