The Vector Catheter is not indicated for use in the coronary arteries or for placement of or post dilatation of stents ### Device Description and Technological Characteristics The Vector" PTA Catheter is a high pressure, non-compliant balloon catheter with a radiopaque coating on the balloon. The radio-opaque coating on the working length of the balloon {1}------------------------------------------------ minimizes or eliminates the need for using contrast solution to inflate the balloon. The radioopaque coating delineates the working length of the balloon and provides continuous fluoroscopic visibility during balloon placement. Saline may be used to inflate the balloon without affecting visualization. Contrast mixture may be used at the discretion of the physician. The Vector4™ PTA Balloon Dilatation Catheter is a coaxial dual lumen over-the-wire balloon dilatation catheter. The central lumen accommodates guide wires up to 0.035 inches in diameter while the outer lumen is the inflation lumen for the balloon. The catheter includes an atraumatic tip to ease advancement of the catheter to and through the stenosis. The distal tip is visible under fluoroscopy. The balloon is a high pressure composite balloon with a radiopaque coating on the working length to help visualize placement within the lesion during both placement and inflation without the use of contrast. The balloon's rated burst pressure is 30 atm. The catheter is supplied sterile and non-pyrogenic. Different balloon sizes (5 mm to 10 mm) and catheter lengths (50 to 135 cm) are available. The proximal end of the catheter contains a hub with two female luer locks. The device is compatible with 6-7F introducers. The introducer compatibility for each device size is listed on the device label itself. The materials used in the construction are biocompatible and latex free. ### Performance Data The Vector 4™ PTA Balloon Dilatation Catheter is tested and meets all its physical and performance specifications including: - Balloon rated burst pressure . - Balloon compliance ● - Critical dimension verifications . - Guidewire and introducer compatibility . - Fluoroscopic visualization . - . Inflation/deflation times - . Repeat inflation - Leak - Tensile - . Kink - . Torque - Corrosion ● - . Luer lock compatibility - Coating integrity . - Distribution ● In addition, the device was tested for biocompatibility ISO 10993-1 for short duration contact with blood (<24 hour). {2}------------------------------------------------ The device is sterilized by ethylene oxide to an SAL 10° level. These performances are similar to that described by the predicate device as these are standard tests for PTA catheters. In addition, direct comparative testing for radiopacity and particulates was conducted for both devices and results found to be similar. After accelerated aging on devices, a subset of the original tests that may be affected by aging were repeated. The preclinical testing showed that the device meets specifications before and after aging indicating that the device is as safe and effective as the predicate device. #### Substantial Equivalence The Vector" is substantially equivalent to the Conquest PTA catheter (K083657). They have similar intended use, and treat the same target population. Both devices are intended to treat peripheral arteries. The Vector4" is indicated for an additional artery - popliteal artery which is also a peripheral artery with similar sizes and access as the other peripheral arteries. The manner in accessing and treating lesions in all these arteries is similar. Therefore, this minor change in indication for use does not change the intended use of the device and does not raise new safety and effectiveness question. Both devices employ a composite balloon construction to attain the high rated burst pressures. Both devices are over the wire catheters with coaxial lumens. Both devices are compatible with 0.035" wires and have similar construction and principles of operation. Both devices are used by the physician in a similar manner typical of all PTA balloon catheters. Both devices are sterilized with ethylene oxide with a sterility assurance of 10°. Fluoroscopic visualization for the Conquest balloon is achieved by injecting contrast into the balloon of the Conquest catheter while the radiopaque coating on the Vector balloon allows visualization without contrast. This difference does not raise new safety and effectiveness questions as the visualization under fluoroscopy has been shown to be equivalent for both devices. #### Conclusion The non-clinical testing of the Vector" PTA Balloon Dilatation Catheter met all the product specifications, and all the required standards for sterility and biocompatibility. The Vector" and the predicate Conquest PTA catheters have similar intended use and technological characteristics and are therefore substantially equivalent. These tests showed that the Vector"™ PTA Balloon Dilatation Catheter is as safe and effective as the predicate device. {3}------------------------------------------------ ### DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Image /page/3/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the Department of Health & Human Services - USA.
