Intended Use

The SilverHawk™ Peripheral Plaque Excision System is intended for use in atherectomy of the peripheral vasculature. The catheter is not intended for use in the coronary, carotid, iliac or renal vasculature.

Device Story

SilverHawk™ Peripheral Plaque Excision System performs atherectomy in peripheral vasculature; removes plaque to improve blood flow. System comprises two components: SilverHawk™ Peripheral Catheter and SilverHawk™ Cutter Driver. Used by physicians in clinical settings. Device is sterile, single-use. Operation involves mechanical excision of plaque; output is physical removal of obstructive material. Benefits patient by restoring patency in peripheral vessels.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence based on identical design and materials to predicate device.

Technological Characteristics

Peripheral atherectomy catheter system. Materials biocompatible per ISO-10993-1. Catheter sterilized via Ethylene Oxide (ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11135); cutter driver sterilized via Gamma (ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11137, 25kGy). Mechanical plaque excision principle.

Indications for Use

Indicated for atherectomy of the peripheral vasculature. Contraindicated for use in coronary, carotid, iliac, or renal vasculature.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

Common and Usual Name: Proprietary Name:

Catheter, Peripheral, Atherectomy 21 CFR 8870.4875, Class II Catheter, Peripheral, Atherectomy SilverHawk™ Peripheral Plaque Excision System

#### Predicate Device

The SilverHawk™ Peripheral Plaque Excision System (K053460) currently marketed by FoxHollow Technologies, Inc. (Redwood City, CA).

#### Summary

This summary of Special 510(k) safety and effectiveness is being submitted in accordance with requirements of SMDA 1990.

The SilverHawk™1 Peripheral Plaque Excision System is intended for atherectomy of the peripheral vasculature and is not intended for use in the coronary, carotid, iliac or renal vasculature.

The SilverHawk™ Peripheral Plaque Excision System consists of two major components which are packaged separately, but used together during atherectomy procedures. The two components are the SilverHawk™ Peripheral Catheter and SilverHawk™ Cutter Driver.

The SilverHawk™ Peripheral Plaque Excision System will be provided sterile for singleuse. The catheter will be sterilized by Ethylene Oxide (ANSVAAMI/ISO 11135), including limits for Ethylene Oxide residuals and validated to a sterility assurance level (SAL) of 10°. The cutter driver is sterilized by Gamma Sterilization Cycle (ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11137), providing a minimum SAL of 106, with a minimum dose of 25kGy, using the VDmax method. The device is biocompatible per ISO-10993-1.

The SilverHawk™ Peripheral Plaque Excision System with the additional clinical contraindication statement is identical in material of construction, overall design, intended use, and safety and efficacy to the predicate device.

The SilverHawk™ Peripheral Plaque Excision System with the additional clinical contraindication statement is considered substantially equivalent to the SilverHawk™ Peripheral Plaque Excision System (K053460).

Dear Ms. Murphy:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate 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) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). 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 (PMA), 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 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050. This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at [phone]. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97).
