Intended for one-time use in the biliary tree to palliate malignant neoplasms. Device is supplied sterile. Physician operates the delivery system to place the stent. Output is the physical stent structure providing biliary patency. Benefits include relief of biliary obstruction caused by malignancy. ## Clinical Evidence Bench testing only. Testing included deployment, compression force, expansion force, dimensional, corrosion, balloon performance, stent deformation, tensile strength, MRI compatibility, shelf life, and biocompatibility testing. ## Technological Characteristics Balloon-expandable stainless steel stent. Available in diameters 3-8 mm and lengths 12-30 mm. Premounted on delivery system. Sterile, single-use. No software or electronic components. ## Regulatory Identification A biliary catheter and accessories is a tubular flexible device used for temporary or prolonged drainage of the biliary tract, for splinting of the bile duct during healing, or for preventing stricture of the bile duct. This generic type of device may include a bile collecting bag that is attached to the biliary catheter by a connector and fastened to the patient with a strap. ## Special Controls *Classification.* Class II (special controls). The device, when it is a bile collecting bag or a surgical biliary catheter that does not include a balloon component, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 876.9. ## Predicate Devices - Bridge FX (Bridge Assurant) Stent Delivery System ([K011817](/device/K011817.md)) - Palmaz Genesis Transhepatic Biliary Stent ([K021345](/device/K021345.md)) - Lifestent LP SDS Biliary Endoprosthesis ([K023248](/device/K023248.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).
