## Predicate Device

Surefire Guiding Catheter

K140034

## Device Description

The Surefire Guiding Catheter provides a pathway to introduce and facilitate the advancement of devices into the peripheral vascular system.

The Surefire Guiding Catheter is a single-lumen 5F catheter with a soft distal tip and a Luer-Lock hub and strain relief. The Surefire Guiding Catheter has a three-layer construction, consisting of a Teflon inner liner, metal mid-layer, and a polymer outer shaft jacket. The polymer is filled with a radiopacifier agent, to provide visibility of the catheter under fluoroscopy.

The Surefire Guiding Catheter is available in 65 cm and 80 cm lengths with a variety of pre-shaped tip designs (including but not limited to Axis and Sim1) to accommodate access and positioning in a range of peripheral vascular anatomies.

The Surefire Guiding Catheter is compatible with standard 0.038" OD guide wires, Luer-Lock infusion syringes, rotating hemostatic valves (RHV), and 5F catheter sheath introducers.

The Surefire Guiding Catheter is provided sterile (EtO) for single patient use.

#### Indications for Use

The Surefire Guiding Catheter is intended to provide a pathway through which therapeutic devices are introduced. The Surefire Guiding Catheter is intended to be used in the peripheral vascular system.

#### Biocompatability Testing

The patient contact materials and colorants used to fabricate the proximal section (hub and shaft) of the modified Surefire Guiding Catheter are identical to the Surefire Guiding Catheter as it was cleared in 510(k) K140034 (cleared February 26, 2014) in formulation, processing, and sterilization, and no other chemicals have been added (e.g., plasticizers, fillers, color additives, cleaning agents, mold release agents, etc.). Biocompatibility testing of the patient-contact materials used in the construction of the proximal section (hub and shaft) of the modified Surefire Guiding Catheter were previously performed in accordance with ISO 10993-1 for an external communicating device in contact with circulating blood with a limited duration of less than 24 hours. The testing was conducted in accordance with GLP by NAMSA (Northwood, OH). Therefore, the biocompatibility test requirements for the proximal section (hub and shaft) of the modified Surefire Guiding Catheter were met by leveraging the previously completed biocompatibility testing.

Biocompatibility testing of the patient contact materials used to fabricate the modified distal tip was performed in accordance with GLP (NAMSA, Northwood, OH) and ISO 10993-1 for external communicating devices in contact with circulating blood with a limited duration of less than 24 hours.

Biocompatibility testing of the material used to jacket the catheter shaft was completed by the material manufacturer in accordance with GLP (Toxicon, Bedford MA) and ISO 10993-1 for external communicating devices in contact with circulating blood with a limited duration of less than 24 hours.

Additionally, testing for thrombogenicity was performed on the modified Surefire Guiding Catheter as a part of an Animal Study.

## Animal Testing

트

A GLP animal study was performed to assess the comparative acute performance of the Surefire Guiding Catheter to the predicate device, as defined by a physician in a clinical environment. The Surefire Guiding Catheter was found to have acceptable performance. Additionally, the Surefire Guiding Catheter was found to have comparable performance to the predicate device.

## Substantial Equivalence

The Surefire Guiding Catheter is substantially equivalent in intended use, design, and technology/principles of operation to the predicate device.

Comparative Summary: Design / Technological Characteristics

The modified Surefire Guiding Catheter and predicate devices are single-lumen 5F catheters with a soft distal tip and a Luer-Lock hub and strain relief. Both the modified and predicated devices have a multi-layer construction, consisting of a Teflon inner liner, metal mid-layer, and a polymer outer shaft jacket filled with a radiopacifier agent.

Both the modified and predicate Surefire Guiding Catheters are available in 65 cm and 80 cm lengths with a variety of pre-shaped tip designs, and are compatible with standard 0.038" OD guide wires, Luer-Lock infusion syringes, rotating hemostatic valves (RHV), and 5F catheter sheath introducers.

Both the modified and predicate Surefire Guiding Catheter are provided in identical packaging, sterilized by ethylene oxide, and labeled for single use only.

## Comparative Summary: Indications for Use

The indication statement of the modified Surefire Guiding Catheter is the same as that of the predicate device. Both devices are intended to provide a pathway through which therapeutic devices are introduced in the peripheral vascular system.

- Torque
- High Pressure Injection (Burst)
- 트 Corrosion
- Particulate ■
