The Edwards Perculaneous Sheath Introducer is intended to access the venous system and to facilitate catheter insertion. The Percutaneous Sheath Introducers allow access to the venous system for administration of fluids, blood sampling and for pressure monitoring through the additional lumens.
Device Story
Triple lumen percutaneous sheath introducer; facilitates venous access and catheter insertion (7.5-8.5 French). Composed of valve housing, sheath, and three side arm/extension tubes. Includes dilator to assist vessel insertion. Valves provide seal around catheter and prevent backflow. Used by clinicians to administer fluids, perform blood sampling, and monitor pressure via additional lumens. Sterile, single-use device.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Testing included biocompatibility (ISO 10993-1), tensile testing, insertion/retraction force, valve leak testing, infusion pressure, and catheter compatibility. All data met pre-determined acceptance criteria.
Technological Characteristics
Triple lumen catheter introducer; valve housing with sheath and three side arm/extension tubes. Includes dilator. Biocompatible materials per ISO 10993-1 for external communicating, direct circulating blood path, duration ≥ 24 hours. Sterile, non-pyrogenic, single-use.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring venous system access and catheter insertion (e.g., pulmonary artery or infusion catheter).
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A catheter introducer is a sheath used to facilitate placing a catheter through the skin into a vein or artery.

## Device Description:
The triple lumen percutaneous sheath introducer is used to access the venous system and to facilitate catheter insertion. The multi-lumen feature of the Introducer also allows access to the venous system for administration of fluids, blood sampling and for pressure monitoring through the additional lumens. The introducer is recommended to facilitate insertion of 7.5 - 8.5 French devices.
The introducer is composed of a valve housing to which a sheath is attached distally and three side arm/extension tubes are connected proximally. The valves located in the housing body provide a seal around a catheter when inserted through the introducer and prevent backflow when no catheter is present. A dilator is provided with the introducer to ease insertion of the device into the vessel.
The devices are provided sterile and non-pyrogenic; they are intended for single use only.
#### Indications For Use:
The Edwards Percutaneous Sheath Introducer is indicated for use in patients requiring access of the venous system and to facilitate catheter insertion (e.g. pulmonary artery or infusion catheter).
#### Intended Use
The Edwards Perculaneous Sheath Introducer is intended to access the venous system and to facilitate catheter insertion. The Percutaneous Sheath Introducers allow access to the venous system for administration of fluids, blood sampling and for pressure monitoring through the additional lumens.
## Comparative Analysis:
The Introducer is substantially equivalent to the predicate device in intended use, fundamental scientific technology, design, principles of operation and functional performance. The introducer has been fully assessed within the Edwards' Risk Management and Design Controls systems.
### Functional/Safety Testing:
The following functional tests were performed. All data met pre-determined acceptance criteria.

Dear Mr. Walker:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
