## Intended Use

The Captivator™ EMR Device is indicated for endoscopic mucosal resection in the upper GI tract.

## Device Story

Captivator EMR Device is an endoscopic accessory for mucosal resection in the upper GI tract. System components include a ligator cap with elastic bands, a band ligator handle, an electrosurgical snare, and a pathology kit. The device attaches to an endoscope; the operator deploys bands to capture mucosal tissue as pseudopolyps. The electrosurgical snare is then introduced to remove the captured tissue. The device supports multiple resections. The pathology kit assists in handling tissue samples for histological processing. The device is used by clinicians in an endoscopic setting to facilitate tissue removal, potentially benefiting patients by enabling minimally invasive resection of GI lesions.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Non-clinical comparative performance testing established substantial equivalence, including system suction delivery efficiency with snare, band ultimate tensile force, and snare loop to pull wire tensile strength. Biocompatibility testing (Cytotoxicity, Sensitization, Acute Systemic Toxicity, and USP Physicochemical Test) performed per EN ISO 10993-1:2009 with acceptable results.

## Technological Characteristics

Ligation-assisted EMR device consisting of a clear ligator cap, elastic bands, band ligator handle, and electrosurgical snare. Biocompatibility evaluated per EN ISO 10993-1:2009. Mechanical operation via suction and manual handle actuation for band deployment and snare resection.

## Regulatory Identification

An endoscopic electrosurgical unit and accessories is a device used to perform electrosurgical procedures through an endoscope. This generic type of device includes the electrosurgical generator, patient plate, electric biopsy forceps, electrode, flexible snare, electrosurgical alarm system, electrosurgical power supply unit, electrical clamp, self-opening rigid snare, flexible suction coagulator electrode, patient return wristlet, contact jelly, adaptor to the cord for transurethral surgical instruments, the electric cord for transurethral surgical instruments, and the transurethral desiccator.

Cook Ireland Duette Multi-Band Mucosectomy Device (K050578)

## 4. Device Description

The Captivator™ EMR Device is an endoscopic mucosal resection device consisting of a ligator cap with ligation bands, a band ligator handle, an electrosurgical snare, and a pathology kit. The ligator cap and band ligator handle are attached to an endoscope, and bands are deployed one at a time to capture mucosal tissue as pseudopolyps, which are clectrosurgically removed using the snare. The device is capable of performing multiple resections. The banding portion of the device is made up of a clear ligator cap with elastic bands stretched around the outer circumference of the cap. Bands are deployed by actuating the handle. The ligator device allows the introduction of an electrosurgical snare for endoscopic therapies. A pathology kit is also provided as a procedural aid which is used to handle tissue samples for histological processing.

{1}------------------------------------------------

## 5. Indication for Use:

The Captivator™ EMR Device is indicated for endoscopic mucosal resection in the upper GI tract

### 6. Technological Characteristics:

The proposed Captivator™ EMR Device shares similar design features and function with the Cook Ireland Duette Multi-Band Mucosectomy Device (K050578) and the cap size of the Olympus Distal Attachment (K984358).

The proposed device has the same intended use and is placed using the same methodology as the predicate device (Cook Ireland Duette Multi-Band Mucosectomy Device (K050578)) via ligation-assisted EMR. The Cook Ireland Duette Multi-Band Mucosectomy Device is a ligationassisted device and the Olympus Distal Attachment is used to perform cap-assisted EMR. All three devices utilize a cap to suction and capture tissue during an EMR procedure. In addition to sharing a similar cap feature, the Captivator™ EMR Device and the Cook Ireland Duette Multi-Band Mucosectomy Device function similarly, as they are both used to perform ligation-assisted EMR.

## 7. Performance Data:

Non-clinical testing was successfully performed on the proposed Captivator™ EMR Device.

## Biocompatibility Testing Summary:

Biocompatibility was evaluated in accordance with EN ISO 10993-1:2009, and the following tests were performed with acceptable results on the patient contacting portions of the Captivator™ EMR Device: Cytotoxicity, Sensitization, Acute Systemic Toxicity, and USP Physicochemical Test.

#### Performance Testing Summary:

Non-clinical comparative performance bench testing was successfully completed to establish substantial equivalence between the proposed Captivator™ EMR Device and the predicate Cook lreland Duette Multi-Band Mucosectomy Device (K050578). This testing included but was not limited to system suction delivery efficiency with snare, band ultimate tensile force, and snare loop to pull wire tensile strength.

#### 8. Conclusion:

Boston Scientific has demonstrated that the proposed Captivator™ EMR Device is substantially equivalent to the currently marketed Cook Ireland Ductic Multi-Band Mucosectomy Device (K050578).
