## Indications for Use

The EasyPass™ US Y-connector Hemostatic Valve is intended to maintain hemostasis during the introduction, use and withdrawal of diagnostic and interventional devices that have an outer diameter of 7 French or smaller. The guide wire insertion tool facilitates introduction of the guide wire through the hemostasis valve and into the guiding catheter. The torquer, when inserted over the proximal end of the guide wire, provides a handle for easier manipulation of the guide wire.

## Device Story

Y-connector hemostatic valve; includes rotating luer lock, sidearm, and valve opener cap with center passage tube. Valve opened by pushing cap distally; closed by pulling proximally. Passage tube provides smooth lumen for device insertion. Used in clinical settings by medical professionals during interventional procedures. Includes guide wire insertion tool and torquer for guide wire manipulation. Maintains hemostasis during introduction, use, and withdrawal of diagnostic/interventional devices.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only.

## Technological Characteristics

Y-connector body with rotating luer lock, sidearm, and hemostasis valve. Includes guide wire insertion tool and torquer. Mechanical operation.

## Regulatory Identification

A cardiopulmonary bypass adaptor, stopcock, manifold, or fitting is a device used in cardiovascular diagnostic, surgical, and therapeutic applications to interconnect tubing, catheters, or other devices.

## Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 870.9.

Device Classification: Class II

Summary of Substantial Equivalence:

The EasyPass Y-connector Hemostatic Valve is substantially equivalent to Guidant Corporation's Copilot Bleedback Control Valve (K991102)

Device Description:

The EasyPass™ US Y-connector Hemostatic Valve consists of a y-connector body with a rotating luer lock, a sidearm and a hemostasis valve. To open the hemostasis valve, a valve opener cap with a center passage tube is pushed distally. The hemostasis valve is closed by pulling the valve opener cap proximally. The passage tube on the valve opener provides a completely opened and smooth lumen for the insertion of interventional devices.

Intended Use:

The EasyPass™ US Y-connector Hemostatic Valve is intended to maintain hemostasis during the introduction, use and withdrawal of diagnostic and interventional devices that have an outer diameter of 7 French or smaller.

{1}------------------------------------------------

The guide wire insertion tool facilitates introduction of the guide wire through the hemostasis valve and into the guiding catheter.

K042060

20f2

The torquer, inserted over the proximal end of the guide wire, provides a handle for easier manipulation of the guide wire.

Technological Characteristics:

Comparisons of the new and predicate device show that technological characteristics such as device design and principle of operation are substantially equivalent to the currently marketed predicate device.

Performance Data:

The results of the performance testing demonstrated the safety and effectiveness of the EasyPass™ US Y-connector Hemostatic Valve.
