Indications for Use

The BD L-Cath™ single and dual lumen peripherally inserted central catheters intended use shall be for the administration of fluids, medications, and nutrients; the sampling of blood; and monitoring blood pressure and temperature intravenously. The BD L-Cath™ Midline™ Catheter intended use shall be for the administration of fluids, medications, and nutrients; the sampling of blood; and monitoring blood pressure and temperature intravenously.

Device Story

BD L-Cath™ series (Single Lumen, Dual Lumen, Midline) are intravascular catheters used for fluid/medication/nutrient administration, blood sampling, and monitoring blood pressure/temperature. Devices feature plastic bushing component connecting tubing to female luer lock adapter. Modification involves higher molecular weight polycarbonate (PC Makrolon RX2530-1118) for bushing. Intended for clinical use; prescription only. No changes to geometry, performance, or fundamental technology compared to predicates.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Substantial equivalence supported by nonclinical testing of the modified bushing material and comparison of technological characteristics.

Technological Characteristics

Intravascular catheters with polycarbonate (PC Makrolon RX2530-1118) bushing component. Linear polycarbonate formulation with higher molecular weight. Same geometry and performance as predicate. No electronic components or software.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring intravenous administration of fluids, medications, and nutrients; blood sampling; and monitoring of blood pressure and temperature.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A percutaneous, implanted, long-term intravascular catheter is a device that consists of a slender tube and any necessary connecting fittings, such as luer hubs, and accessories that facilitate the placement of the device. The device allows for repeated access to the vascular system for long-term use of 30 days or more, and it is intended for administration of fluids, medications, and nutrients; the sampling of blood; and monitoring blood pressure and temperature. The device may be constructed of metal, rubber, plastic, composite materials, or any combination of these materials and may be of single or multiple lumen design.

### Description of the device:

Becton Dickinson obtained the L-Cath™ catheter product lines through the purchase of Luther Medical Inc, a California based company, in January 1999. Luther Medical obtained market clearance from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) during 1993 for the L-Cath™ peripherally inserted central catheters through the premarket notification [510(k)] process. Becton Dickinson currently markets the L-Cath single lumen, dual lumen, and midline catheters. These catheters have a plastic bushing material that is used for the purpose of catheter assembly and/or extension tubing with a female luer lock adapter.

The primary modification addressed in this 510(k) submission relates to a material modification in the bushing component. The modifications to the devices pertain to a

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

modified bushing material that is known as PC Makrolon RX2530-1118, which has been tested by Becton Dickinson's supplier and meets FDA & ISO standards. The bushing material is used in all three types of catheters to join the tubing to the female luer lock adapter. The material modification affects only the bushing that is seated within the luer adapters of the BD L-Cath™ PICC and BD L-Cath™ Midline products. The formulation modification is a linear polycarbonate with the same end groups, formulation, additives, and colorants. The only difference being a higher molecular weight for the modified material.

Intended Use of the L-Cath™ single lumen, and BD L-Cath™ dual lumen catheter devices: [21 CFR Part 880---- GENERAL HOSPITAL AND PERSONAL USE DEVICES: General Hospital and Personal Use Therapeutic Devices Sec. 880.59701

The BD L-Cath™ single and dual lumen peripherally inserted central catheters intended use shall be for the administration of fluids, medications, and nutrients; the sampling of blood; and monitoring blood pressure and temperature intravenously.

# Intended Use of the BD L-Cath™ Midline catheter devices:

The BD L-Cath™ Midline™ Catheter intended use shall be for the administration of fluids, medications, and nutrients; the sampling of blood; and monitoring blood pressure and temperature intravenously.

#### Technological Characteristics Comparison:

The L-Cath products have the same technological characteristics with no changes in part geometry or performance, and have the same formulation, additives, and colorants as the current device material. The only difference being a higher molecular weight in the formulation change which is not evident to the end user.

### Nonclinical Tests Support Substantial Equivalence:

The following qualities of the three devices are the same and support substantial equivalence: Indications for use, fundamental scientific technology, gauge sizes of the devices, visualization of blood return and potential for blood exposure during use.

#### Conclusions from Nonclinical Tests:

The intended use and technological characteristics of the BD L-Cath™ products described in this submission have not been altered and therefore have remained the same since receiving their original 510(k) approval from the FDA.

The term "substantial equivalence" as used in this 510(k) notification is limited to the definition of substantial equivalence found in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, as amended and as applied under 21 CFR 807, Subpart E under which a device can be marketed without premarket approval or reclassification.

Dear Ms. Alder:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). 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 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.
