For children aged 17 and under, the Relieva SpinPlus Nav™ Balloon Sinuplasty System is intended to provide a means to access the sinus space, within and across nasal and sinus structures; dilate sinus ostia and spaces associated with the maxillary sinus for diagnostic and therapeutic procedures; and irrigate from within the maxillary sinus for therapeutic procedures and to facilitate diagnostic procedures. The Relieva SpinPlus Nav™ Balloon Sinuplasty System may be utilized in conjunction with the ACCLARENT® ENT Navigation System, to provide access to nasal and sinus spaces, and to confirm placement in the accessed anatomy ## Device Story The Relieva SpinPlus Nav Balloon Sinuplasty System is a manual surgical instrument used by ENT surgeons to access, dilate, and irrigate paranasal sinus ostia. The device integrates a sinus guide catheter, flexible balloon catheter, irrigation port, and an electromagnetically-trackable guidewire into a single handle assembly. The handle features a wire slider for advancing/spinning the guidewire, a balloon slider for positioning the balloon, and a suction port for clearing fluids. When connected to the Acclarent ENT Navigation System, the device provides EM-based real-time tracking of the distal tip relative to pre-loaded CT scans. The surgeon uses the device to navigate to the target ostia, dilate them via saline-inflated balloon, and irrigate the sinus. This system facilitates minimally invasive sinus procedures, potentially reducing surgical trauma and improving access to difficult anatomy compared to traditional methods. ## Clinical Evidence No clinical data was necessary. Substantial equivalence was demonstrated through bench testing, including dimensional specifications, balloon burst pressure, joint separation force, deflation time, cycle fatigue, tensile strength, and irrigation performance. Navigation accuracy was verified using the Acclarent ENT Navigation System. Biocompatibility and sterilization (EtO) were validated per ISO standards. ## Technological Characteristics Single-use, manual surgical instrument. Combines sinus guide catheter, balloon catheter, irrigation, and EM-trackable guidewire. Materials: biocompatible polymers. Sterilization: EtO (AAMI/ANSI/ISO 11135:2014). Connectivity: wired interface to Acclarent ENT Navigation System for EM tracking. Dimensions: 0.035-inch guidewire, 16mm balloon length, 12 ATM max inflation pressure. ## Regulatory Identification An ear, nose, and throat manual surgical instrument is one of a variety of devices intended for use in surgical procedures to examine or treat the bronchus, esophagus, trachea, larynx, pharynx, nasal and paranasal sinus, or ear.

Data: | The RELIEVA SPINPLUS Nav™ Balloon Sinuplasty System met all
performance acceptance criteria including dimensional specifications;
balloon burst pressure, joint separation force, deflation time, and
balloon cycle fatigue. Additional testing to demonstrated that wire
stiffness, tensile strength and irrigation testing were also performed to
demonstrate that the device met performance specifications.

Packaging shelf life was established through accelerated aging via
ASTM F1980-07, ASTM F88/F88M-09, and ASTM F2096-04
requirements and confirmed to meet a shelf life of three months.

Biocompatibility testing successfully completed to determine that the
RELIEVA SPINPLUS® NAV Balloon Sinuplasty System is
biocompatible.

The sterilization process has been validated per AAMI/ANSI/ISO
11135:2014 and demonstrated a sterility assurance level of 10-6. The
method used for sterilization validation was the overkill (half-cycle
approach) in a fixed chamber. Ethylene oxide residuals were tested and
met ISO 10993-7:2008 requirements. The subject device is not tested
nor labeled as "non-pyrogenic”.

Simulated use testing was performed with ENT surgeons performing
balloon dilation of the paranasal sinuses utilizing the RELIEVA
SPINPLUS® NAV Balloon Sinuplasty System and the ACCLARENT
ENT™ Navigation System. The testing demonstrated that the
RELIEVA SPINPLUS® NAV Balloon Sinuplasty System and the
ACCLARENT ENT™ Navigation System could effectively access the
paranasal sinuses. Clinical data was not necessary for the RELIEVA
SPINPLUS® NAV Balloon Sinuplasty System.

Testing was performed to verify the navigation accuracy of the device
when used with the Acclarent ENT Navigation System (K161701).
Testing included sensitivity and connection verification.
The performance data demonstrated that the device performs as
intended. | |----------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | [807.92(b) (2)] Determination of Substantial Equivalence | | | Clinical Performance Data | Clinical data was not necessary for the RELIEVA SPINPLUS Nav™
