Indications for Use
The Flash-C PTCA Balloon Dilatation Catheter is indicated for balloon dilatation of the stenotic portion of a coronary artery or bypass graft for the purpose of improving myocardial perfusion.
Device Story
Flash-C PTCA Balloon Dilatation Catheter is a 0.014" guidewire-compatible, rapid exchange (RX) angioplasty catheter. Device features dual balloon design: compliant anchoring balloon for precise positioning at aorto-ostial anatomies to prevent distal migration; semi-compliant high-pressure balloon for luminal dilatation. Used by physicians in clinical settings for percutaneous coronary intervention. Operator positions catheter via guidewire; inflates anchoring balloon to stabilize; inflates dilatation balloon to open stenotic vessel. Improves myocardial perfusion by restoring blood flow. Device is an extension of previously cleared product line.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance evaluated via balloon crossing profile, burst pressure, compliance, inflation/deflation times, fatigue, and bond/torque/tip pull strength. Biocompatibility testing performed per ISO-10993 (MEM elution, hemolysis, complement activation, thromboresistance, pyrogen, sensitization, systemic toxicity, intracutaneous reactivity). In-vivo swine model testing conducted on the previously cleared Flash device to assess downstream and cognitive effects.
Technological Characteristics
0.014" guidewire-compatible, rapid exchange (RX) catheter. Dual balloon system: compliant anchoring balloon and semi-compliant high-pressure dilatation balloon. Materials evaluated per ISO-10993. Compatible with 6 French guide catheters. Mechanical operation via manual inflation/deflation.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring balloon dilatation of stenotic coronary arteries or bypass grafts to improve myocardial perfusion.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
Standard PTCA Catheter: A PTCA catheter is a device that operates on the principle of hydraulic pressurization applied through an inflatable balloon attached to the distal end. A PTCA balloon catheter has a single or double lumen shaft. The catheter features a balloon of appropriate compliance for the clinical application, constructed from a polymer. The balloon is designed to uniformly expand to a specified diameter and length at a specific pressure as labeled, with well characterized rates of inflation and deflation and a defined burst pressure. The device generally features a type of radiographic marker to facilitate fluoroscopic visualization of the balloon during use. A PTCA catheter is intended for balloon dilatation of a hemodynamically significant coronary artery or bypass graft stenosis in patients evidencing coronary ischemia for the purpose of improving myocardial perfusion. A PTCA catheter may also be intended for the treatment of acute myocardial infarction; treatment of in-stent restenosis (ISR) and/or post-deployment stent expansion. Cutting/scoring PTCA Catheter: A cutting/scoring PTCA catheter is a balloon-tipped catheter with cutting/scoring elements attached, which is used in those circumstances where a high pressure balloon resistant lesion is encountered. A cutting/scoring PTCA catheter is intended for the treatment of hemodynamically significant coronary artery stenosis for the purpose of improving myocardial perfusion. A cutting/scoring PTCA catheter may also be indicated for use in complex type C lesions or for the treatment of in-stent restenosis.
