Intended Use

The Medtronic CardioTherm™ Blood Cardioplegia System, with or without Carmeda BioActive Surface, is intended for use in procedures requiring the mixing, cooling, warming, and delivery of oxygenated blood and/or asanguineous cardioplegia solution.

Device Story

CardioTherm™ Blood Cardioplegia System is a single-use, disposable device used in extracorporeal circuits during cardiac surgery. It mixes arterial blood from an oxygenator with asanguineous cardioplegia solution in specific ratios (e.g., 1:1, 2:1, 4:1, 9:1) determined by tubing set configuration. The device features a polycarbonate housing with a heat exchanger containing non-porous polypropylene hollow fibers. Blood/cardioplegia solution flows through the fibers while temperature-regulated water circulates around them to cool or warm the solution. The device includes a bubble chamber, air venting stopcock, and temperature probe port. The Carmeda® BioActive Surface (heparin coating) is applied to blood-contacting surfaces to provide thromboresistance. Operated by perfusionists or clinicians in an OR setting, the device allows precise temperature and ratio control of cardioplegic delivery to the patient's heart, facilitating myocardial protection during surgery.

#### DEVICE NAME

CardioTherm™ Blood Cardioplegia System with Carmeda® BioActive Surface

### NAME OF PREDICATE OR LEGALLY MARKETED DEVICE(S)

- . Medtronic CardioTherm™ Blood Cardioplegia Systems (K960755)
- Medtronic Extracorporeal Circuit with Carmeda® BioActive Surface (K891687) .
- Medtronic MAXIMA PLUS® PRF Hollow Fiber Oxygenator with Carmeda . BioActive Surface (K941473)

#### DESCRIPTION OF DEVICE

The Medtronic CardioTherm™ Blood Cardioplegia System with Carmeda® BioActive Surface is coated with a non-leaching bioactive heparin surface which provides thromboresistant blood contact surfaces. The Carmeda® BioActive Surface is present on blood path materials.

Each Medtronic CardioTherm™ Blood Cardioplegia System with Carmeda® BioActive Surface is a single use, disposable device designed to mix arterial blood from an oxygenator with asanguineous cardioplegia solution in specific ratios depending on the tubing set configurations. The blood/cardioplegia solution is then cooled/warmed and delivered to the patient.

The Medtronic CardioTherm™ Blood Cardioplegia Heat Exchanger with Carmeda BioActive Surface consists of a polycarbonate housing which incorporates a bubble chamber. A stopcock is attached to the upper luer port of the housing lid allowing for air venting through a purge line during priming and pressure monitoring through a vented or non-vented pressure monitoring line throughout the procedure. A temperature probe port is located adjacent to the blood outlet port at the bottom of the device, allowing for temperature monitoring of the blood/cardioplegia solution prior to patient delivery.

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

The heat exchanger housing contains non-porous polypropylene hollow fibers, which are supported on their exterior by a polyethylene screen. These polypropylene fibers run longitudinally through the polycarbonate chamber. Blood/cardioplegia solution flows through the polypropylene hollow fibers. The walls of these fibers provide a barrier between the blood/cardioplegia solution and the cooling/warming water.

The flow of solution through the Medtronic CardioTherm™ Blood Cardioplegia Heat Exchanger with Carmeda® BioActive Surface is as follows:

#### Blood/Cardioplegia

The blood and/or cardioplegia solution enters the bottom of the device, flows up through the polypropylene hollow fibers, flows back down a center collecting tube, and exits the from the bottom of the device.

#### Water

The cooling/warming water enters a side port, passes around the outside walls of the polypropylene fibers, then exits through a parallel side port.

Heat exchange occurs as the blood/cardioplegia solution passes through the hollow fibers, while the temperature regulated cooling/warming water passes around the outside walls of the same fibers. The blood/cardioplegia solution is cooled/ warmed as it flows through the heat exchanger.

By connecting tubing of specific inner diameters to the heat exchanger, a predetermined approximate ratio of blood to cardioplegia solution may be delivered to the patient. The tubing sets are equivalent to the tubing sets which are currently used for the CardioTherm™ Blood Cardioplegia System (K960755)

Four of the various delivery ratios available are:

- a tubing set for 1:1 ratio of blood to asanguineous cardioplegia. 1.
- a tubing set for 2:1 ratio of blood to asanguineous cardioplegia. 2.
- నా a tubing set for 4:1 ratio of blood to asanguineous cardioplegia.
- a tubing set for 9:1 ratio of blood to asanguineous cardioplegia. 4.

These tubing ratios are identical to the commercially available CardioTherm™ Blood Cardioplegia Systems.

#### STATEMENT OF INTENDED USE

# STATEMENT OF INTENDED USE OF PREDICATE/MARKETED DEVICES

The Medtronic CardioTherm™ Blood Cardioplegia System is intended for mixing, cooling, warming, and delivery of oxygenated blood and/or asanguineous cardioplegia solution.

## STATEMENT OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS COMPARISON

A table comparing the intended use and technological characteristics of the Medtronic Cardiopulmonary CardioTherm™ Blood Cardioplegia System with Carmeda® BioActive Surface with the substantially equivalent device is provided in Attachment 1. In addition, information regarding technological characteristic comparison is provided in the following section, "Determination of Substantial Equivalence".

# DETERMINATION OF SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE

This premarket notification is being submitted for a modification to the Medtronic CardioTherm™ Blood Cardioplegia Systems. This modification is for the Carmeda coating of the Medtronic CardioTherm™ Blood Cardioplegia Systems.

This premarket notification submission provides substantial equivalence information and rationale which addresses the introduction to commercial distribution of the Medtronic Cardiopulmonary CardioTherm™ Blood Cardioplegia Systems with Carmeda® BioActive Surface.

The Medtronic CardioTherm™ Blood Cardioplegia Systems are devices which are currently in commercial distribution. The CardioTherm™ Blood Cardioplegia Systems (K960755) were deemed substantially equivalent to other blood cardioplegia devices on May 23, 1996.

In determining substantial equivalence of the Medtronic Cardiopulmonary CardioTherm™ Blood Cardioplegia Systems with Carmeda® BioActive Surface (further references will state CardioTherm™), the decision-making process follows the 510(k) "Substantial Equivalence" flow diagram and is presented as follows:

The Carmeda® CardioTherm™ is being "compared to the following Marketed Devices":

- . Medtronic CardioTherm™ Blood Cardioplegia Systems (K960755)
- . Medtronic Extracorporeal Circuit with Carmeda® BioActive Surface (K891687)
- Medtronic MAXIMA PLUS® PRF Hollow Fiber Oxygenator with Carmeda® . BioActive Surface (K941473)

{3}------------------------------------------------

The Carmeda® CardioTherm™ has the "same indications statement and intended uses" as the:

- CardioTherm™ Blood Cardioplegia Systems (K960755) e
The Carmeda® CardioTherm™ has "new technological characteristics (e.g., design, materials and manufacturing processes)" from the current Medtronic CardioTherm™ Blood Cardioplegia Systems. These technological characteristics include;

- Carmeda® BioActive Surface .
- This technological characteristics is common to other Medtronic Carmeda® . coated products currently in commercial distribution as follows;
- Medtronic Extracorporeal Circuit with Carmeda® Bio-Active Surface . (K891687)
- Medtronic MAXIMA PLUS® PRF Hollow Fiber Oxygenator with Carmeda® . BioActive Surface (K941473)

These technological characteristics "could affect the safety and effectiveness of the device". However these "new technological characteristics do not raise new types of safety or effectiveness questions". In addition, "there are accepted scientific methods which exist for assessing effects of these new technological characteristics". These scientific methods are identical to the method used for other Medtronic Carmeda® coated products.

"Performance data to assess the effects of these new technological characteristics" has been obtained through in-vitro bench testing. These "performance data demonstrate" that the CardioTherm™ Blood Cardioplegia Systems with Carmeda® BioActive Surface are substantially equivalent to marketed devices.

In addition, the modes of operation of the CardioTherm™ Blood Cardioplegia Systems with Carmeda® BioActive Surface are either identical or substantially equivalent to other blood cardioplegia systems in commercial distribution. The function of the Medtronic CardioTherm™ Blood Cardioplegia Systems with Carmeda® BioActive Surface is mixing, cooling, warming, and delivery of oxygenated blood and/or asanguineous cardioplegia solution.

A table comparing the intended use, performance characteristics, technological characteristics and mode of operation of the Medtronic Cardiopulmonary CardioTherm™ Blood Cardioplegia Systems with Carmeda® BioActive Surface with the noted substantially equivalent device is provided in Attachment 1.

These data support that the blood cardioplegia systems with Carmeda® BioActive Surface do not significantly affect safety and effectiveness and are substantially equivalent to another commercially distributed blood cardioplegia system.

{4}------------------------------------------------

The biocompatibility testing and in-vitro bench testing demonstrated that when compared to the predicate devices the CardioTherm™ Blood Cardioplegia Systems with Carmeda BioActive Surface do not significantly affect safety and effectiveness and are substantially equivalent to other commercially distributed devices. The in-vitro bench testing included analysis of:

- Carmeda® Performance Characteristic Testing .
