Intended Use
The AMPLATZER® Vascular Plug 4 is indicated for arterial and venous embolizations in the peripheral vasculature.
Device Story
AMPLATZER Vascular Plug 4 (AVP4) is a self-expanding Nitinol mesh occlusion device designed for peripheral vascular embolization. It features radiopaque marker bands at each end and a micro-screw attachment for connection to a delivery wire. The system includes a loader (two-tube assembly with stainless steel spring) and a delivery wire (PTFE-covered coil with core wire and end screw). The device is delivered through 4 Fr or 5 Fr 0.038" guidewire-compatible diagnostic catheters. Used by physicians in clinical settings to occlude vessels; the device is deployed to block blood flow in target peripheral vessels. The radiopaque markers assist in visualization during placement. The device is an extension of existing AMPLATZER plug technology, modified for smaller catheter compatibility and improved finish.
Clinical Evidence
Evidence includes bench testing (sterilization, fatigue, material characterization, product performance, packaging, corrosion resistance, chemical characterization per ISO 10993-18, toxicology risk assessment per ISO 10993-17, and MRI compatibility) and in-vivo testing (occlusion canine study, acute canine study, and porcine serum analysis). No new safety or performance issues were identified.
Technological Characteristics
Self-expanding Nitinol mesh; radiopaque marker bands; micro-screw attachment. Delivery system: PTFE-covered coil delivery wire, stainless steel spring loader. Dimensions compatible with 4 Fr and 5 Fr 0.038" diagnostic catheters. Finish: chemically etched Nitinol. Sterilization: standard methods. No software or electronic components.
Indications for Use
Indicated for arterial and venous embolizations 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).
