## Indications for Use

The Genesis Medical Interventional™ F.A.S.T.™ (Facilitated Aspiration/ Suction Thrombectomy) System is indicated for: - The non-surgical removal of emboli and thrombi from blood vessels. - The non-surgical removal of thrombi from synthetic grafts. - Use in temporary blood vessel/graft occlusion. - Injection, infusion, and/or aspiration of contrast media and other fluids into or from a vessel/graft. - Catheter placement over a guidewire.

## Device Story

The F.A.S.T. System is a minimally invasive catheter-based device used for thrombectomy and fluid management. It consists of an expanding basket thrombectomy guidewire, funnel sheath catheter, dilator, tip cover, and accessories including an 18-gauge needle and vacuum syringe. The device is operated by a physician in a clinical setting. The system functions by inserting the catheter over a guidewire to the target site; the expanding basket facilitates the mechanical removal of thrombi or emboli, while the funnel sheath and syringe allow for aspiration of fluids or contrast media. The device provides a non-surgical alternative for clearing vascular obstructions and grafts, potentially reducing patient morbidity associated with open surgical interventions.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Performance data provided to demonstrate that all system components perform in accordance with their specifications.

## Technological Characteristics

System components include an expanding basket thrombectomy guidewire, funnel sheath catheter, dilator, and vacuum syringe. The device utilizes mechanical aspiration and basket-based retrieval. It is a class II device (Product Code: DXE).

## Regulatory Identification

An embolectomy catheter is a balloon-tipped catheter that is used to remove thromboemboli, i.e., blood clots which have migrated in blood vessels from one site in the vascular tree to another.

Dear Ms. Worden:

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.
