The Phoenix 2.4mm Deflecting Atherectomy System and the Phoenix Aspiration Pump are sterile, single-use devices that are sterilized using Ethylene Oxide (EO). The Phoenix 2.4mm Deflecting Atherectomy System comprises the Phoenix 2.4mm Deflecting Atherectomy Catheter and the Phoenix Atherectomy Handle with Wire Support Clip. The Phoenix Catheter is an over-the-wire (OTW), multi-lumen Catheter with a cutter at the distal tip that continuously captures and clears debulked (excised) material proximally through the Catheter and Handle into a collection reservoir that resides outside the patient. For use, the Phoenix Catheter is inserted into the Phoenix Handle incorporates a self-contained battery-powered motor designed to drive and rotate the cutter of the Phoenix Atherectorny Catheter at its specified rotational speed, and is activated by an ON/OFF slider switch on the top of the Handle. A Wire Support Clip is used to hold a guidewire in a fixed position relative to the Phoenix Handle and prevent guidewire rotation during the procedure. The Catheter, Handle, and Wire Support Clip are packaged as sterile, single-use components of the Phoenix Atherectomy System. The Phoenix Catheter is compatible with commercially available 0.014" exchange length (260 cm or greater) guidewires. For the purpose of this 510(k), the design of the Phoenix 2.4mm Deflecting Atherectomy System remains unchanged. The Phoenix Aspiration Pump connects to the disposal outlet of the Phoenix Catheter via the pump's aspiration tubing. The exit end of the aspiration tubing is connected to a waste disposal bag to collect aspirated material. A 60 ml syringe is provided as part of the Aspiration Pump Assembly to assist in priming the pump aspiration tubing and purging the aspiration system of air. The Aspiration Pump is battery-operated and is operated by an ON/OFF switch. It serves as a vacuum source for the Aspiration System for aspirating the thrombus from the target vessel out of the Phoenix Catheter via the pump aspiration tubing and into the disposal bag. The Aspiration Pump is non-patient contacting. {5}------------------------------------------------ 510(k) Premarket Notification K181877 #### Indications for Use: The Phoenix Atherectomy System is intended for use in atherectomy of the perioheral vasculature. The system is not intended for use in the coronary, carotid, iliac, pulmonary, or renal vasculature. #### Phoenix Atherectomy Plus System: When used with the Phoenix Aspiration Pump as the vacuum source, the Phoenix 2,4mm Deflecting Atherectomy System is indicated for the removal of thrombus from vessels of the peripheral arterial vasculature. ### Comparison with Predicate: The Phoenix 2.4mm Atherectomy Plus System is the subject of this submission for removal of thrombus from peripheral arterial vasculature. The Phoenix 2.4mm Atherectomy Plus System has been assessed for substantial equivalence relative to the currently marketed Boston Scientific Jetstream Atherectomy System as the predicate device, along with consideration of two additional reference devices, the Phoenix 2.4mm Deflecting Atherectomy System and the Penumbra INDIGO Aspiration System. The Phoenix 2.4mm Atherectomy Plus System has the same design, materials, technological characteristics and principle of operation of the reference Phoenix 2.4mm Deflecting Catheter and Handle, There is no change to the currently marketed 2.4mm Deflecting Atherectomy Catheter and Handle with Wire Support Clip. The Phoenix Aspiration Pump that is used as part of the Phoenix Atherectomy Plus System is comparable to the Penumbra INDIGO Aspiration System and shares a similar mechanism of action. The proposed indications for use to add aspiration for thrombus removal for the Phoenix Atherectomy Plus System are similar to those of the predicate Boston Scientific Jetstream Atherectomy System, with respect to a combined atherectomy and thrombectomy indication, as well as the reference Penumbra INDIGO System with thrombus removal using vacuum aspiration. Any differences between the subject and predicate device were evaluated through technological comparison (also taking into account the noted reference devices) and design verification and validation testing, which demonstrated no new questions of safety and effectiveness. The similarities and differences between the subject device and the predicate and reference devices are outlined in the table below: {6}------------------------------------------------ | Table 1-1: Comparison Table | | | | | |--------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Design/ Technological Characteristic | Subject Phoenix Atherectomy Plus System | Predicate Boston Scientific (Pathway Medical) Jetstream System K130637 | Reference Phoenix Atherectomy System K172386 | Reference Penumbra Indigo Aspiration System K161523 | | Indications / Intended Use | The Phoenix Atherectomy System is intended for use in atherectomy of the peripheral vasculature.
