Indications for Use
The RocaJJ Soft Stents are used for temporary internal drainage from the ureteropelvic junction to the bladder. Ureteral stents have been used to relieve obstruction in a variety of benign, malignant, and post-traumatic conditions. The stents may be placed using endoscopic techniques. The stents are not intended as a permanent indwelling devices, it is recommended that: - The indwelling time not exceed 6 days when the device is used with the removal string; - The indwelling time not exceed 365 days when the device is used without the removal string.
Device Story
Tubular double pigtail ureteral stent; made of flexible radiopaque polyurethane; includes polypropylene-monofilament suture loop for extraction; optional pusher (with radiopaque tip) and guidewire. Used for temporary internal drainage from ureteropelvic junction to bladder. Placed by physicians using endoscopic techniques. Stent relieves ureteral obstruction; improves patient outcomes by facilitating drainage. Indwelling time limited to 6 days with removal string or 365 days without. Device provides mechanical drainage path; radiopacity allows visualization during placement.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Evaluations included tensile strength, ultimate elongation, opening force of retaining loops, drainage capacity, biocompatibility (ISO 10993), sterilization, shelf life, and transportation validation. All results met specifications.

These<br>conditions include stones<br>and/or stone fragments or<br>other ureteral obstructions<br>such as those associated<br>with ureteral stricture,<br>malignancy of abdominal<br>organs, retroperitoneal<br>fibrosis or ureteral trauma,<br>or in association with<br>ESWL. The stent may be<br>placed using endoscopic<br>surgical techniques or<br>percutaneously using<br>standard radiographic<br>technique. It is<br>recommended that the<br>indwelling time not exceed<br>365 days. The stent is not<br>intended as a permanent<br>indwelling device. | The Universa Soft<br>Ureteral Stents and Stent<br>Sets aer used for<br>temporary internal<br>drainage from the<br>ureteropelvic junction to<br>the bladder. Ureteral<br>stents have been used to<br>relieve obstruction in a<br>variety of benign,<br>malignant, and post-<br>traumatic conditions. The<br>stents may be placed<br>using endoscopic,<br>percutaneous, or open<br>surgical techniques. |
The RocaJJ Soft Stents and its predicates have a similar intended use, diameter, length, indwelling period without the withdrawal string, sterility process, radiopaque properties, materialprocessing and design.
The RocaJJ Soft Stents have a shorter indwelling time withdrawal string than the Universa Soft Stent, which is more favorable.

RocaJJ Soft Stents pusher is made of Polyamide instead of HDPE for Bard InLay Optima, which is a more resistant material. Length of pusher is equivalent for 6/7/8Fr versions while 4.8Fr pusher is longer in RocaJJ Soft Stents, which is more favorable as it allows an easier handling by physician. RocaJJ Soft Stents exist in a span of lengths from 24 to 30cm, which is narrower than predicate devices and address most of patients.
Guidewire interface is 0.035" for RocaJJ Soft Stents, while predicates allow a guidewire diameter up to 0.038". Standard endoscopic procedures use 0.035" guidewires, while 0.038" guidewires are more commonly used in percutaneous procedures which are not included in RocaJJ Soft Stents intended use.
Hence, the RocaJJ Soft Stents are substantially equivalent to the predicates devices since the basic features and intended uses are the same.
The minor differences between RocaJJ Soft Stents and the predicate devices raise no new issues of safety and effectiveness.
