### Predicate Devices

Sterling ES PTA Balloon Dilatation Catheters, Sterling Monorail and OTW PTA Balloon Dilatation Catheters and Polarcath Peripheral Dillatation System.

### Device Description

The Sterling SL PTA Balloon Dilatation Catheters has a coaxial shaft design. The outer lumen is used for inflation of the balloon, and the wire lumen permits the use of guidewires 0.014 in (0.36 mm) or 0.018 in (0.46 mm) to facilitate advancement of the . catheter to and through the stenosis to be dilated. The balloon is designed to provide an inflatable segment of known diameter and length at recommended pressures. The catheter includes a tapered tip to facilitate advancement of the catheter. The working lengths of the balloon catheter are 90 cm and 150 cm.

#### Indications for Use

The Sterling SL PTA Balloon Dilatation Catheter is indicated for Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) in the peripheral vasculature, including illac, femoral, ilio-femoral, infrapopliteal, renal arteries, and for the treatment of obstructive lesions of native or synthetic arteriovenous dialysis fistulae.

#### Substantial Equivalence

The Sterling SL PTA Balloon Dilatation Catheters line extension design, materials, manufacturing process and intended use are substantially equivalent to predicate devices Sterling ES (K080982), Sterling Monorail (K053118), Sterling OTW (K053116)

#### Performance Data

The substantial equivalence of the modified Sterling PTA Balloon Dilatation Catheters is demonstrated with design control activities and bench testing on file at Boston Scientific.
