Intended Use

The TransXchange Support Catheter is a guidewire exchange and infusion device designed for use in the peripheral vascular system. The catheter is intended to support a guidewire during access of vessels, allow for exchange of guidewires, and provide a conduit for the delivery of saline solutions or diagnostic contrast agents.

Device Story

TransXchange Support Catheter is a peripheral vascular device used by clinicians to support 0.014" guidewires during catheter introduction, facilitate guidewire exchange, and infuse saline or diagnostic contrast agents at pressures up to 150 psi. The catheter fills the annular space between a guidewire and a larger catheter lumen. It is a single-use, sterile device operated by physicians during percutaneous intravascular procedures. It provides a conduit for fluid delivery, aiding in vessel access and procedural efficiency.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. No clinical data provided.

Technological Characteristics

Constructed of high-density polyethylene tubing, proximal female luer hub, polyolefin strain relief, and a platinum-iridium marker band. Uses Loctite 4304 Cyanoacrylate Adhesive. Single-lumen design. Provided sterile; single-use only. No electronic or software components.

Indications for Use

Indicated for use in the peripheral vascular system as a guidewire exchange and infusion device to support guidewires during vessel access, facilitate guidewire exchange, and deliver saline or diagnostic contrast agents.

Regulatory Classification

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.

#### Device Description 4.

The TransXchange Support Catheter is designed to perform the following functions during percutaneous intravascular procedures:

- 1. Support a 0.014" guidewire during introduction of catheters with lumens of 0.035" or greater over a 0.014" guidewire. The TransXchange Support Catheter is designed to assist in the introduction of catheters with lumens of 0.035" or greater over a 0.014" guidewire. The TransXchange Support Catheter acts to fill the annular space between the smaller guidewire and larger catheter lumen.
- 2. Allow for the exchange of guidewires through its lumen
- 3. Infusion of fluids such as saline or diagnostic contrast agents through its lumen into the vascular system using pressures up to 150 psi

The TransXchange Support Catheter in constructed of 5 components: a single lumen high density polyethylene tubing with a tapered distal tip, a proximal female luer hub, a two piece strain relief constructed of polyolefin, a distal platinum iridium marker band, and Loctite 4304 Cyanoacrylate Adhesive.

#### ડ. Intended Use of Device

The TransXchange Support Catheter is a guidewire exchange and infusion device designed for use in the peripheral vascular system. The catheter is intended to support a guidewire during access of vessels, allow for exchange of guidewires, and provide a conduit for the delivery of saline solutions or diagnostic contrast agents.

#### 6. Technological Characteristics:

#### Comparison of Technological Characteristics A.

The TransXchange Support Catheter is substantially equivalent to the currently cleared Spectranetics Support Catheter (K0991059). The subject and predicate stents are identical technology and are intended to support a guidewire during access of the vasculature, to allow for the exchange of guidewires, and to infuse saline or diagnostic contrast agent. The subject device offers a smaller catheter diameter. The subject and predicate stents are both intended to meet clinical needs. The difference between the subject and predicate devices are minor and are not relevant to the ability of the subject device to perform as intended.

#### B. Nonclinical testing

Preclinical testing was conducted to confirm the safe and effective performance of this device as well as the biocompatibility of the device.

{2}------------------------------------------------

### C. Sterilization

The TransXchange Support Catheter is provided sterile. The device is not intended for reuse or resterilization.

### Conclusion D.

The TransXchange Support Catheter is substantially equivalent to the currently cleared Spectranetics Support Catheter (K991059) and meets clinical needs of the physicians.
