Intended Use
The Single-Use Introducer is used for patient esophageal intubation to guide the catheters and tubes via the nasal or oral cavity. It is to be used in conjunction with endoscopes to allow visualization of the placement process. The Single-Use Introducer is to be used in a hospital or clinical setting and under the supervision of a qualified healthcare professional who has received professional training in using the equipment. The Single-Use Introducer is provided non-sterile, and is intended to be non-reusable. The Single-Use Introducer is for transient use (under 24 hrs), and will come in direct contact with the patient's mucosal lining.
Device Story
Single-use introducer; facilitates esophageal intubation for catheter/tube placement. Device consists of 30cm PVC tube with open tip and two-piece polycarbonate cone. Used with endoscope for visualization; endoscope inserted into introducer; assembly guided through nasal/oral passage to pharynx. Visual aid prevents nasopharyngeal/oropharyngeal wall aggravation. Once positioned, endoscope extracted; introducer remains as open channel for catheter/tube insertion. After placement, introducer extracted along catheter length; cone halves pulled apart for removal/disposal. Used in hospital/clinical settings by trained healthcare professionals. Benefits: minimizes pharyngeal wall aggravation during intubation; simplifies placement of catheters lacking internal lumens for guidewires.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Verification testing included dimensional verification, visual inspection, kink resistance, and tensile strength. Validation testing confirmed user needs and intended use. No clinical data presented.
Technological Characteristics
Materials: medical grade polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and polycarbonate (PC). Dimensions: 30cm length, 5-6mm OD, 4-5mm ID. Single lumen, open tip, two-piece cone design. Non-sterile, single-use. No energy source or software.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring esophageal intubation for the guidance of catheters and tubes via the nasal or oral cavity, performed in a hospital or clinical setting by trained healthcare professionals.

This 510(k) Summary is for the PatCom Single-Use Introducer
### Indications for Use:
The Single-Use Introducer is used for patient esophageal intubation to guide the catheters and tubes via the nasal or oral cavity. It is to be used in conjunction with endoscopes to allow visualization of the placement process.
The Single-Use Introducer is to be used in a hospital or clinical setting and under the supervision of a qualified healthcare professional who has received professional training in using the equipment.
The Single-Use Introducer is provided non-sterile, and is intended to be non-reusable.
The Single-Use Introducer is for transient use (under 24 hrs), and will come in direct contact with the patient's mucosal lining.
### Device Description:
The PatCom Single-Use Introducers are made from single lumen, medical grade polyvinyl chloride plastics. The tubing length is 30cm, with an open tip at one end, and a polycarbonate cone made of 2 halves at the other end.
This device is designed to work in conjunction with endoscopes to make the placement of certain catheters and tubes more pleasant for the patient and easier for the end user. The endoscope is placed inside the introducer and both devices together are guided through the

nasal or oral passage into the pharynx, via the visual aid provided by the endoscope. The purpose of the visual aid is to prevent unnecessary aggravation of the nasopharyngeal or oropharvngeal wall. Once the introducer is in its desired position, the endoscope is extracted.
The introducer then functions as an open channel from the mouth or the tip of the nose through to the distal opening end of the introducer, as a quide for the placement of catheters and tubes, especially ones that do not contain their own open lumen for use of guidewires that are standard in the gastrointestinal industry. By feeding the catheters or tubes through the introducer, it again minimizes any possible aggravation of the pharyngeal wall as the catheters and tubes would follow the tunnel created by the introducer.
After the catheter is inserted through the introducer and placed into its proper positioning, the introducer is then extracted out of the nasal or oral cavity along the length of the catheter. Once the entire introducer is exposed, the user grips the 2 halves of the cone and pulls apart the introducer to remove and discard.
We are claiming equivalence to the following predicate device:
| Product Name | 510(k) Number | Manufacturer |
|----------------------|---------------|-------------------------------|
| Enteroscopy Overtube | K100081 | United States Endoscopy Group |
The PatCom Single-Use Introducers are similar to the overtubes manufactured by United States Endoscopy Group in that they have the same intended purpose, where both devices require the use of a scope, are slid over top of the endoscopic device, and are used to aid in the guidance of medical devices to be inserted into the upper gastrointestinal tract.
We would also like to acknowledge a reference device, listed below:

| Motility Catheters | K823701 | H&A Mui Enterprises Inc., o/a Mui<br>Scientific |
The PatCom Single-Use Introducers are similar to the motility catheters manufactured by Mui Scientific in that they are also made of the same polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and polycarbonate (PC) material as the motility catheters, and are assembled following similar manufacturing procedures. They are both also intubated into a patient via the same nasal or oral cavity pathway.

Nonclinical bench testing was carried out on the PatCom Single-Use Introducer to verify and validate its performance and intended use. Individual verification testing was conducted to verify the performance requirements and specifications of the introducer, such as dimensional verification, visual inspection, kink resistance testing, and tensile strength testing. Validation testing was then conducted on the user's needs and intended use. All testing and results were successfully completed, thereby demonstrating that the device is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as or better than the legally marketed device predicate.
