Intended Use

The Ballard Medical Products® Faciletome™ Bow String Papillotome(s) is intended to be used for patients requiring transendoscopic cannulation and sphincterotomy of the Papilla of Vater and/or the Sphincter of Oddi.

Device Story

The Faciletome™ Bow String Papillotome is an electrosurgical device used during ERCP procedures. It consists of a sheath housing a stainless steel mono-filament or stranded wire. Operated by a physician under direct vision of a duodenoscope (with or without fluoroscopy), the device is inserted into the biliary tree. The handle allows the operator to apply tension to the distal end, forming a 'bow' shape. When monopolar surgical power is applied, the wire incises the Papilla of Vater or Sphincter of Oddi. The sheath insulates the non-cutting portion of the wire. The device is available in single, double, and triple lumen designs with various wire lengths and precurved tip configurations. It facilitates biliary access and tissue incision, potentially benefiting patients by enabling therapeutic biliary interventions.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. In vitro tests performed: high-frequency leakage current, capacitive coupling between active wire and guidewire, frequency and voltage signal verification (800V p-p @ 1MHz), and dielectric withstand testing.

Technological Characteristics

Electrosurgical device; stainless steel mono-filament or stranded cutting wire; single/multiple lumen sheath; one-piece handle system; precurved tip options. Energy source: monopolar electrosurgical power. Connectivity: compatible with 0.035 inch guidewires and duodenoscope biopsy channels. Optional Touhy Borst attachment for guidewire lumens.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring transendoscopic cannulation and sphincterotomy of the Papilla of Vater and/or the Sphincter of Oddi.

## Proprietary Name per 807.92(a)(2):

The Ballard Medical Products® Faciletome™ Bow String Papillotome

Common Name per 807.92(a)(2):

Biliary Bow String Papillotome or Sphincterotome

#### Classification per 807.92(a)(2):

The Ballard Medical Products® Faciletome™ Bow String Papillotome has been classified a Class II device through the Gastrointestinal -- Urology Panel per 21 CFR Part 876.4300. Classification name is: Unit, Electrosurgical, Endoscopic (With or Without Accessories). Product Code 78KNS.

Legally marketed equivalent(s) per 807.92(a)(3):

The Ballard Medical Products® Faciletome™ Bow String Papillotome device is substantially equivalent to the Wiltek Medical, Inc. papillotomes; the subject of 510(k) #K894861, marketed under the trade names of Accuratome TM, Accuratome™, and Double Lumen™ Papillotome.

#### Description of the device 807.92(a)(4):

The bow string papillotome is one of the most commonly used E.R.C.P. (Endoscopic Retrograde Colangio-Pancreatography) devices and has been established in the industry for several years. It has evolved into several variations on one general theme, facilitating entrance into the biliary tree. It performs this by housing a stainless steel mono-filament or stranded wire that is to be the active wire when monopolar, surgical power is introduced into the device handle connection. A sheath runs the length of the wire and allows only that portion of the wire that is needed to cut be exposed and insulates the remainder from the patient. The bow geometry and wire tension aid in cutting the tissue at the precise location. The wire is attached to a handle, that when manipulated, allows the operator to apply tension forming a " bow" at the distal end.

The Ballard Medical Products® Faciletome™ Bow String Papillotome is placed under direct vision of a duodenscope, with or without fluoroscopic aid. The single lumen, double lumen and triple lumen designs have a variety of cutting wire lengths as well as a variety of precurved tip configurations in the precurved model type.

#### Intended Use per 807.92(a)(5):

The Ballard Medical Products® Faciletome™ Bow String Papillotome(s) is intended to be used for patients requiring transendoscopic cannulation and sphincterotomy of the Papilla of Vater and/or the Sphincter of Oddi.

## Technological Characteristics (equivalence to predicate devices) per 807.92(a)(6):

The Ballard Medical Products® Faciletome™ Bow String Papillotome(s) are substantially equivalent to the Wiltek Medical, Inc. papillotomes; K894861, marketed under the trade names of Accuratome3m, Accuratome™, and Double Lumen™ Papillotome.

The general design characteristics and functionality are similar in that they are all one piece construction which include: single or multiple lumen shafts, a one piece handle system, multiple cutting wire lengths and construction with precurved tips in multiple lengths.

The above devices may be advanced with or without employing a 0.035 inch guidewire through the biopsy channel of a duodenoscope with optional use of fluoroscopy.

In all the devices, current is applied through the cutting wire to incise the Papilla of Vater or Sphincter of Oddi. A Touhy Borst may be attached to the guidewire lumens of the multiple lumen devices to assist in placement, and minimize contrast leakage.

## Determination of Substantial Equivalence (non-clinical data) per 807.92(b)(1):

The following in vitto tests were performed on the proposed Ballard Medical Products® FaciletomeTM Bow String Papillotome:

- A) High Frequency Leakage Current
- B) Capacitive Coupling between device active wire and recommended guidewire(s).
- C) Verification of Frequency and Voltage Signal (800V p-p @ 1MHz)
- D) Dielectric Withstand Test

#### Conclusions from non-clinical data per 807.92(b)(3):

Based on the indications for use, technological characteristics, and performance testing, the Ballard Medical Products® Faciletome™ Bow String Papillotome has been shown to be safe and effective for its intended use.
