Intended Use
The Zoom 7X Catheter, with the Zoom Aspiration Tubing or Zoom POD Aspiration Tubing, and the Zoom Aspiration Pump (or equivalent vacuum pump), is indicated for use in the revascularization of patients with acute ischemic stroke secondary to intracranial large vessel occlusive disease (within the internal carotid, middle cerebral – M1 and M2 segments, basilar, and vertebral arteries) within 8 hours of last known well. Patients who are ineligible for intravenous thrombolytic drug therapy or who have not responded to thrombolytic drug therapy are candidates for treatment. The Zoom Aspiration Tubing and the Zoom POD Aspiration Tubing are intended to connect the Zoom (7X, 71, 55, 45, 35) Catheter and the TracStar LDP Large Distal Platform, the Zoom 88 Large Distal Platform, or the Zoom 88 Large Distal Platform Support to the Zoom Canister of the Zoom Aspiration Pump (or equivalent vacuum pump) and to allow the user to control the fluid flow.
Device Story
The Zoom 7X Catheter is a single-lumen, variable-stiffness, braid/coil-reinforced catheter designed for neurovascular thrombus removal. It is used in conjunction with the Zoom Aspiration Tubing (or POD variant) and a vacuum pump (e.g., Zoom Aspiration Pump). The catheter features a hydrophilic coating and a beveled distal tip for atraumatic navigation. During an acute ischemic stroke procedure, a physician tracks the catheter through the vasculature to the occlusion site under fluoroscopic guidance. Once positioned, the physician activates the vacuum pump to aspirate the thrombus. The Zoom POD Aspiration Tubing includes an in-line clot filter. The device facilitates revascularization, potentially improving patient outcomes by restoring blood flow. It is intended for use in clinical settings by trained neurointerventionalists.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence is supported by non-clinical bench testing, including delivery/trackability, compatibility, bond strength, burst pressure, torque strength, kink resistance, and clot retrieval performance. Biocompatibility was verified per ISO 10993-1.
Technological Characteristics
Single-lumen catheter; braid/coil-reinforced polymer construction; hydrophilic coating; beveled distal tip. Sterilization: Ethylene Oxide (EO). Connectivity: Standard luer fittings. Accessories: Rotating Hemostasis Valve (RHV), introducer sheaths. Tubing: Medical grade polymers with external pinch clamp flow control; POD version includes in-line clot filter. Standards: ISO 10555-1 (catheter performance), ISO 80369-7 (luer compatibility), ISO 11135 (sterilization).
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients with acute ischemic stroke secondary to intracranial large vessel occlusive disease (internal carotid, middle cerebral M1/M2, basilar, vertebral arteries) within 8 hours of last known well. Candidates include those ineligible for or non-responsive to IV thrombolytic therapy.

Standard ISO 10993-1, “Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices – Part 1: Evaluation and Testing Within a Risk Management Process”. Using a risk assessment approach, it was determined that the biocompatibility assessments provided for previously cleared devices (K210996, K242672) apply to the subject Zoom and Zoom POD Aspiration Tubing and no additional testing of these components is required.
## Animal Study
Substantial equivalence was established based on non-clinical testing presented above.
## Clinical Study
Substantial equivalence was established based on non-clinical testing presented above.
## VIII. CONCLUSION
Where differences were identified between the subject and predicate devices, a risk assessment was completed to determine if the differences would result in new safety or effectiveness concerns. As appropriate, bench and laboratory testing was performed. The non-clinical testing demonstrates that the subject Zoom 7X Catheter, Zoom Aspiration Tubing, and Zoom POD Aspiration Tubing perform as intended.
Based on the non-clinical testing presented above, the subject and predicate devices are substantially equivalent and there are no new safety or effectiveness concerns. The subject device and predicate device share the same intended use, basic technological characteristics, and performance characteristics.
