Used in clinical settings for post-operative pain management and regional anesthesia. Physician-operated; delivers anesthetic to surgical wound sites. Benefits patient via targeted local anesthetic delivery. ## Clinical Evidence No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence based on design, material, and performance characteristics compared to predicate devices. ## Technological Characteristics Polyamide co-polymer catheter body; stainless steel coil reinforcement; radiopaque; closed-end with multiple radial fenestrations; 19g and 20g sizes. ## Regulatory Identification An infusion pump is a device used in a health care facility to pump fluids into a patient in a controlled manner. The device may use a piston pump, a roller pump, or a peristaltic pump and may be powered electrically or mechanically. The device may also operate using a constant force to propel the fluid through a narrow tube which determines the flow rate. The device may include means to detect a fault condition, such as air in, or blockage of, the infusion line and to activate an alarm. ## Predicate Devices - MICOR EpiFlex Epidural Catheter ([K991879](/device/K991879.md)) - MICOR Epidural Conduction Catheter ([K001717](/device/K001717.md)) - MICOR Conduction Catheter ([K003966](/device/K003966.md)) - Pain Care Multi-Port Catheter ([K003611](/device/K003611.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. {3}------------------------------------------------ # Page 2 - Ms. Forgrave Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies.
