The Optima™ and CML Duo™ are intended to be used in adult surgical procedures requiring extracorporeal gas exchange support and blood temperature control for periods of up to 6 hours.
Device Story
The COBE Optima (hollow fiber) and CML Duo (flat sheet) are membrane oxygenators with integral heat exchangers used during cardiopulmonary bypass. The devices facilitate gas exchange and regulate blood temperature during adult surgical procedures. They are used in clinical settings by medical professionals as part of an extracorporeal circuit. The current submission covers modifications to the Optima end cap-to-core joint and heat exchanger seals to improve manufacturability. The devices are sterilized via ethylene oxide and feature nonpyrogenic fluid pathways. The modifications do not alter device specifications, performance, or labeling.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical testing was performed. Safety and efficacy were established through in vitro bench testing and biocompatibility assessments of the modified materials.
Technological Characteristics
Hollow fiber (Optima) and flat sheet (CML Duo) membrane oxygenators with integral heat exchangers. Modifications involve end cap-to-core joints and heat exchanger seals. Sterilization via ethylene oxide. Nonpyrogenic fluid pathways.
Indications for Use
Indicated for adult patients undergoing surgical procedures requiring extracorporeal gas exchange support and blood temperature control for up to 6 hours.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A cardiopulmonary bypass oxygenator is a device used to exchange gases between blood and a gaseous environment to satisfy the gas exchange needs of a patient during open-heart surgery.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The special control for this device is the FDA guidance document entitled “Guidance for Cardiopulmonary Bypass Oxygenators 510(k) Submissions.”

devices. There are no significant changes being made to the processes used to manufacture or sterilize the devices. The modifications to the COBE Optima and CML Duo seals are being made to improve the manufacturability of these devices.
## NONCLINICAL TEST RESULTS:
Blood pathway pressure drop and blood pathway integrity for the COBE Optima oxygenator with modified seals were tested and did not significantly change from the predicate device. Blood pathway pressure drop and blood pathway integrity for the CML Duo oxygenator with modified seals were tested and did not significantly change from the predicate device.
Biocompatibility tests of the raw materials used for these modifications indicate that they are safe for use in the COBE Optima and the COBE CML Duo.
## CLINICAL TEST RESULTS:
No clinical testing was performed. Safety and efficacy can be determined by in vitro testing.
## CONCLUSION:
In vitro testing and biocompatibility testing show that the modified devices are safe and effective and not significantly different from the predicate devices.

Dear Ms. Leonard:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
