Intended Use
The Benelli is intended for use in accessing the peripheral vasculature.
Device Story
Benelli Access Device is a 4 F intravascular over-the-needle catheter used for peripheral vascular access. System includes 6.9 cm high-density polyethylene shaft, polypropylene hub, rotating suture wing for securement, sidearm with extension tubing, and three-way stopcock for flushing, fluid delivery, and blood sampling. Kit components include needleless access port, 21 G x 9 cm echogenic needle, and 0.018" x 40 cm guidewire. Device is used by clinicians to facilitate vascular access; output is physical access to the patient's peripheral vasculature for therapeutic or diagnostic purposes.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Design verification included insertion force, radiopacity, liquid leak, aspiration, tensile, corrosion, and kink testing. Biocompatibility testing per ISO 10993-1 included cytotoxicity, acute systemic toxicity, sensitization, hemocompatibility, and irritation/intracutaneous reactivity.
Technological Characteristics
4 F over-the-needle catheter; 6.9 cm high-density polyethylene shaft; polypropylene hub; rotating suture wing; sidearm with extension tubing and three-way stopcock. Biocompatibility per ISO 10993-1. Mechanical design features include tapered distal tip for vascular entry.
Indications for Use
Indicated for accessing the peripheral vasculature in patients requiring vascular access.
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.

#### General Information
| Trade Name | Benelli Access Device |
|---------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Common / Usual Name | Catheter, percutaneous |
| Classification Name | 870.1250; DQY; Percutaneous catheter; Class II |
| Predicate Devices | K021120 Arrow Arterial Catheterization Device (Arrow<br>International, Inc. |
| Predicate Devices | K032843 Nexiva Closed IV Catheter System (Becton<br>Dickinson Infusion Therapy Systems, Inc.) |
#### Device Description
The Benelli Access Device is a 4 F intravascular over-the-needle catheter consisting of a 6.9 cm high-density polyethylene shaft and a polypropylene hub. The distal end of the shaft terminates in a tapered tip for smooth entry into the vasculature. A polypropylene rotating suture wing is provided on the distal end of the hub and is used to secure the catheter to the patient and prevent dislodgement. The catheter hub has a sidearm that attaches to extension tubing. A three-way stopcock is attached to the distal end of the extension tubing to provide multiple access points to the catheter lumen, allowing for easier flushing, fluid delivery, and blood sampling.
The Benelli Access Device is sold as part of an intravascular catheterization kit. This kit includes the following components:
- . Benelli Access Device (4 F x 6.9 cm catheter with sidearm tubing and 3-way stopcock)
- Intraluminal protection system (needleless access port)
- 21 G x 9 cm echogenic needle .
- . 0.018" x 40 cm guidewire.

#### Intended Use / Indications
The Benelli is intended for use in accessing the peripheral vasculature.
#### Technological Characteristics
The Benelli Access Device is similar to the predicate devices in design and performance. The three devices consist of the over-the-needle catheter design and are available in similar dimensions. The Benelli Access Device and the Nexiva Closed IV Catheter System both have additional access points to allow for device flushing and fluid delivery. The Benelli Access Device utilizes different materials of construction from the predicate devices; however, these materials are commonly used in vascular access devices. Material suitability for the intended clinical use was evaluated through bench testing and biomaterial assessments.
#### Substantial Equivalence and Summary of Studies
The Benelli Access Device is substantially equivalent to the specified predicate devices based on comparisons of the device functionality, technological characteristics, and Indications for Use. The device design has been qualified through the following tests:
- . Insertion force
- Radiopacity .
- . Liquid leak
- Aspiration .
- Tensile
- Corrosion
- Kink
Biocompatibility testing per ISO 10993-1 was performed, consisting of the following tests:
- . Cytotoxicity
- Acute systemic toxicity .
- Sensitization .
- Hemocompatibility ●
- Irritation/intracutaneous . reactivity
Results of the design verification testing and biomaterial assessments did not raise new safety or performance questions.
