## Indications for Use

The vessel cannula will be supplied with a wing or without a wing, with or without a check valve to deliver cardioplegia solution to the heart during cardiopulmonary bypass surgery and to perfuse a vein graft or access the patency of the vessel to be used as a graft during cardiopulmonary bypass surgery. The aortic root cannula is designed to deliver cardioplegia solution during cardiopulmonary bypass surgery and aspirate air from the aorta at the end of the cardiopulmonary bypass surgery. The aortic root cannula with vent line is designed to deliver cardioplegia solution and vent the heart during cardiopulmonary bypass surgery. The cardioplegia "Y" perfusion adapter is designed for use with the aortic root cannula and vessel cannula to deliver cardioplegia solution during cardiopulmonary bypass surgery. The cardioplegia "Y" recirculation adapter is designed for use for recirculating of cardioplegia solution during cardiopulmonary bypass surgery. The cardioplegia straight adapter is designed for use during cardiopulmonary bypass surgery for connecting a cannula or catheter to an administration or vent line. The cardioplegia "Y" venting adapter is designed for use during cardiopulmonary bypass surgery to deliver cardioplegia solution and vent the left heart.

## Device Story

Device suite includes vessel cannulae, aortic root cannulae, and various cardioplegia adapters (straight, Y-perfusion, Y-recirculation, Y-venting). Used during cardiopulmonary bypass surgery by surgeons/clinicians. Vessel cannula delivers cardioplegia or assesses vein graft patency; aortic root cannula delivers cardioplegia and vents air/heart; adapters facilitate fluid line connections, recirculation, or venting. Flexible PVC tubing construction; luer-lock connections; suture rings/anchor hubs for secure placement. Devices enable controlled delivery of cardioplegia solution to the heart and management of air/fluid during bypass, supporting myocardial protection and surgical access.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only.

## Technological Characteristics

Flexible polyvinyl chloride (PVC) tubing; luer-lock connectors; suture rings; anchor hubs; check valves (optional); wings (optional). Mechanical fluid delivery and venting system. No electronic components or software.

## Regulatory Identification

A cardiopulmonary bypass vascular catheter, cannula, or tubing is a device used in cardiopulmonary surgery to cannulate the vessels, perfuse the coronary arteries, and to interconnect the catheters and cannulas with an oxygenator. The device includes accessory bypass equipment.

## DESCRIPTION OF DEVICE

The Vessel Cannula is indicated for use in the delivery of cardiopleqia solution during cardiopulmonary bypass surgery or to perfuse a vein graft or access the patency in a harvested vein which will be used for a graft. The Vessel Cannula is a flexible, tapered, polyvinyl chloride tube with a soft distal tip. The distal tip is composed of two sizes of anchor hubs (3mm distal-3.6mm proximal) designed to accommodate vessels of various diameters. The proximal female luer-lock is designed to securely connect with a standard cardioplegia delivery line. The cannula is available with or without wings and with or without a check valve.
