The following delivery system components were upsized to accommodate the addition of the {1}------------------------------------------------ filter arm anchors of the cleared MERIDIAN™ Filter (K102511, August 24, 2011): spline, introducer sheath, introducer hub, introducer hub cap, introducer valve, dilator hub, dilator marker bands, safety cap and storage tube. All materials are identical, with the exception of the storage tube, which is now polycarbonate tubing with ABS overmold (the predicate storage tube is only polycarbonate tubing). No changes have been made to the MERIDIAN™ Filter as cleared under K102511 on August 24, 2011. Minor changes have been made to the device labeling. # Device Description: The MERIDIAN™ Filter consists of twelve electropolished shape-memory nitinol wires emanating from a central electropolished nitinol filter hook. These 12 wires form two levels of embolic filtration: the six legs provide the lower level of filtration and the six arms provide the upper level of filtration. The legs contain hooks and the arms contain anchors to resist filter movement. The MERIDIAN™ Filter is intended to be used in the inferior vena cava with diameters less than or equal to 28 mm. The MERIDIAN™ Filter System - Femoral Delivery Kit consists of a 8 French inner diameter (I.D.) introducer sheath and dilator set, a storage tube preloaded with the MERIDIAN™ Filter and pusher system. The dilator is fitted with 2 radiopaque marker bands spaced 28 mm apart for caval sizing. The introducer sheath contains a radiopaque tip and hemostasis valve with a side port for injecting contrast medium via a syringe. The storage tube and pusher system attach to the introducer and allow for delivery and deployment of the MERIDIAN™ Filter. # Indications for Use of Device: The subject device, the MERIDIAN™ Filter System - Femoral Delivery Kit, is indicated for use in the prevention of recurrent pulmonary embolism via permanent placement in the vena cava in the following situations: - Pulmonary thromboembolism when anticoagulants are contraindicated. . - Failure of anticoagulant therapy for thromboembolic disease. . - . Emergency treatment following massive pulmonary embolism where anticipated benefits of conventional therapy are reduced. - Chronic, recurrent pulmonary embolism where anticoagulant therapy has failed . or is contraindicated. {2}------------------------------------------------ K122497 P. 3 of 4 Page 9 MERIDIAN™ Filter may be removed according to the instructions supplied under the section labeled: Optional Procedure for Filter Removal. # Technological Comparison to Predicate Devices: The technological characteristics of the subject device, the MERIDIAN™ Filter System -Femoral Delivery Kit, are substantially equivalent to those of the predicate devices, in terms of following: - Intended use (both predicates) . - Indications for use (both predicates) . - Target population (both predicates) . - Operating principle (both predicates) . - Delivery system design (ECLIPSE® Filter System Femoral Delivery Kit) ● - Filter design and material (MERIDIAN™ Filter System Jugular/Subclavian . Delivery Kit) - Fundamental scientific technology (both predicates) . - Packaging configuration (ECLIPSE® Filter System Femoral Delivery Kit) ● - Sterility Assurance and method of Sterilization (both predicates) . # Performance Testing Summary: To demonstrate substantial equivalence of the subject device to the predicate device, the technological characteristics and performance criteria were evaluated using in vitro and in vivo testing performed as outlined below: #### In Vitro Delivery System Testing - Dimensional and Visual Inspection . - Tensile . - Torque . - Flushability . - Component compatibility . - Attachment/Detachment . - Filter Dislodgement . {3}------------------------------------------------ K112497 p. 4 of 4 Page 10 - . Pushability - Trackability ● - . Removability - Filter Centering (Tilt) � - Arm and Leg Entanglement (Filter Configuration) . - Deployment Force . - Deployment Accuracy . - . Liquid Leakage - Leakage during power injection . - . Burst - Air Aspiration . - . Biocompatibility per ISO 10993-1 #### In Vivo Delivery System Testing - . Delivery System Trackability and Pushability - Dilator and Introducer Sheath Trackability and Pushability . - Ease of Deployment (Deployment Force) . - Deployment Accuracy - Filter Centering (Tilt) . - Arm and Leg Entanglement (Filter Configuration) . - Dilator Marker Band Visibility Under Fluoroscopy . - Introducer Sheath Tip Visibility Under Fluoroscopy . The results from these tests demonstrate that the technological characteristics and performance of the MERIDIAN™ Filter System – Femoral Delivery Kit is comparable to the predicate devices and that the subject device can perform in a manner substantially equivalent to the predicates devices with the same intended use. # Conclusion: The MERIDIAN™ Filter System – Femoral Delivery Kit is substantially equivalent to the legally marketed predicate devices. {4}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/4/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the Department of Health & Human Services - USA.
