Device Story
Flipper Detachable Embolization Coil (Inconel) is a vascular embolization device; used for arterial and venous embolization in peripheral vasculature. Device consists of Inconel coil with synthetic fibers; pre-loaded in shipping cannula. Operated by physician using angiographic catheter; deployment achieved by unscrewing threads between coil and delivery wire. Device provides mechanical occlusion of vessels; intended for one-time use. Bench testing confirmed performance including coil deformation, tensile strength, friction, fiber pull-out, detachment reliability, and MR compatibility.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only: coil deformation, wire tensile strength, delivery friction, fiber pull-out, detachment reliability, and magnetic resonance (MR) testing.
Indicated for arterial and venous embolization in the peripheral vasculature.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A vascular embolization device is an intravascular implant intended to control hemorrhaging due to aneurysms, certain types of tumors (e.g., nephroma, hepatoma, uterine fibroids), and arteriovenous malformations. This does not include cyanoacrylates and other embolic agents, which act by polymerization or precipitation. Embolization devices used in neurovascular applications are also not included in this classification, see § 882.5950 of this chapter.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls.) The special control for this device is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Vascular and Neurovascular Embolization Devices.” For availability of this guidance document, see § 870.1(e).

### Device:
| Trade Name: | Flipper® Detachable Embolization Coil (Inconel) |
|-------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Proposed Classification Name: | Device, Vascular, Embolization<br>21 CFR 870.3300, KRD |
| Indications for Use: | Used for arterial and venous embolization in the peripheral<br>vasculature. |
### Predicate Devices:
The Flipper® Detachable Embolization Coil (Inconel) is similar in terms of intended use, materials of construction, and technological characteristics to the predicate Flipper® Detachable Embolization Coil (stainless steel) and MReye® Embolization Coil.
# Device Description:
The Flipper® Detachable Embolization Coil (Inconel) is used for arterial and venous embolization procedures in the peripheral vasculature. The device is supplied sterile and intended for one-time use. The embolization coil is pre-loaded in a shipping cannula. The coil is constructed of Inconel and has a coil wire diameter of 0.035 inches. It is available in a curled shape. The emboli size range is 3 to 8 mm. The embolization coil includes synthetic fibers evenly placed down the length of the coil. The device is introduced to the target vessel using an angiographic catheter (sold separately) and deployment is achieved when the threads between the coil and the Flipper® Detachable Coil Delivery Wire are unscrewed.
### Substantial Equivalence:
Cook Incorporated currently markets the Flipper® Detachable Embolization Coil (stainless steel—K993455) and the MReye® Embolization Coil (K052834), to which the Flipper® Detachable Embolization Coil (Inconel) is substantially equivalent. The similar indications for use, materials of construction, and technological characteristics of the Flipper® Detachable Embolization Coil (Inconel) as compared to the predicate devices support a determination of substantial equivalence.
