Intended Use
The Dexterity™ Steerable Introducer is intended to be used for the percutaneous introduction of various cardiovascular catheters into the heart, including the left side of the heart through the inter-atrial septum.
Device Story
Dexterity™ Steerable Introducer facilitates flexible catheter positioning within cardiac anatomy. Device features proximal and distal tip steering; includes hemostasis valve to minimize blood loss during catheter exchange; sideport with stopcock allows for aspiration, fluid infusion, blood sampling, and pressure monitoring. Sheath constructed of reinforced Pebax; distal tip contains radiopaque marker for fluoroscopic visualization. Used by clinicians in cardiovascular procedures to introduce catheters into the heart. Provides stable access for diagnostic or therapeutic catheter placement; benefits patient by enabling precise navigation to target cardiac sites.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Testing performed per ISO 10555 and FDA guidance for intravascular catheters. Evaluated visual surface, dimensions, corrosion resistance, tensile break force, tip separation force, leakage under pressure, air aspiration, luer hub compliance, flexural fatigue, in vitro simulated use, functional performance, and radiopacity.
Technological Characteristics
Reinforced Pebax sheath; radiopaque distal marker. Available in 9Fr and 14Fr diameters with various working lengths (up to 105 cm). Includes dilator, stylet, and tear-away sheath depending on model. Sterile, single-use. Mechanical steering mechanism. No software or electronic components.
Indications for Use
Indicated for percutaneous introduction of cardiovascular catheters into the heart, including the left side via the inter-atrial septum.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A catheter introducer is a sheath used to facilitate placing a catheter through the skin into a vein or artery.

| | The Dexterity steerable introducer is designed to provide flexible catheter positioning in<br>the cardiac anatomy. The steerable introducer provides both proximal tip and distal tip<br>steering and is fitted with a hemostasis valve to minimize blood loss during catheter<br>introduction and/or exchange. A sideport with stopcock is provided for air or blood<br>aspiration, fluid infusion, blood sampling, and pressure monitoring. The introducer<br>sheath is reinforced Pebax and the distal tip has a radiopaque marker to improve<br>fluoroscopic visualization. The device is provided in various diameters and working<br>lengths. The device is provided sterile and is intended for single use only. | | | |
| | The purpose of this submission is to add an additional device working length, 105 CM,<br>to the 14Fr Introducer product offering. In addition the intended use statement is<br>modified to include the term percutaneous for clarification only. This change is not a<br>change to the intended use of the device. | | | |
| Intended Use | The Dexterity™ Steerable Introducer is intended to be used for the percutaneous<br>introduction of various cardiovascular catheters into the heart, including the left side of<br>the heart through the inter-atrial septum. | | | |
| Safety and<br>Performance<br>Testing | No performance standards have been established under Section 514 of the Food, Drug<br>and Cosmetic Act for these devices. | | | |

Dear Ms. Santagate,
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.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21
