All system materials are medical grade. Needle sets are single-use and composed of 304 stainless steel with polycarbonate hubs and available in 15 mm (for patients 3-39 kg); 25 mm (for patients 3 kg or over) and 45 mm (for patients 40 kg or over) lengths. Black lines on the needle set catheter serve as depth markers. The reusable cordless driver/drill is powered by lithium batteries with a battery-power indicator light. Clinicians locate anatomical landmarks and clean the insertion site. Using the cordless driver with needle set attached, the needle set is pressed through the soft tissue to the outer cortex of the bone. Depth markers on the catheter must be visible prior to powering driver to ensure adequate needle length for proper placement within the medullary space. Clinicians then squeeze the driver trigger and apply moderate, steady pressure. Trigger is released when a sudden "give" or "pop" is felt, which indicates entry into the medullary space; the needle set will not always be inserted to the hub. After insertion of the needle set, the driver unit is detached from the needle set, leaving the stylet and catheter firmly seated in the bone. The stylet is then separated and removed from the catheter by turning the stylet hub counter clockwise leaving a standard Luer lock catheter securely seated in the bone. The catheter Luer lock permits attachment of standard syringes and IV tubing for administration of medications and fluids. This submission requests the addition of the distal femur as an insertion site for the pediatric population utilizing the same insertion technique and devices previously cleared via 510(k) K132538, which includes the insertion sites of the proximal tibia, distal tibia and proximal humerus. #### Proposed Expanded Indication Discussion: Reason for requested expanded indication: To increase the usefulness of the EZ-IO with additional intraosseous insertion site options we are requesting clearance to use the distal femur as an intraosseous vascular access insertion site for the pediatric population. This will provide clinicians with another option to choose the best insertion site based on patient specific parameters such as age, anatomy, disease state, clinical situation and the clinician's experience and training. This could possibly improve patient outcomes. Just as clinicians choose which vein to use in each case where vascular access is needed, upon clearance of the distal femur clinicians would have another intraosseous site option available based on each unique patient situation. 4 {2}------------------------------------------------ ## K141117 Supplement 002 Traditional 510(k) Vidacare LLC: EZ-IO Intraosseous Infusion System -Expanded Indication- Distal Femur ## June 25, 2014 Overview: Anatomically and physiologically any bone that has a medullary cavity can be used to safely infuse drugs and fluids through transverse emissary veins into the central circulation. Historically, many long and several flat bones have been successfully used as an intraosseous conduit for vascular access including the distal femur, medial proximal tibia, sternum, distal tibia, clavicle, proximal humerus, olecranon, calcaneous, as well as the iliac crest. 13 The femur has been utilized as an intraosseous insertion site since 1941.4 Safety and Efficacy Considerations: The FDA cleared the EZ-IO intraosseous infusion device for use in 2004; initially for adults in the proximal tibia and later in pediatrics and the additional sites of the proximal humerus (humeral head), and the distal tibia. Safety considerations, in general, are concerned with potential adverse complications. The EZ-IO intraosseous device has been cleared for pediatric insertion to the femur in the European Union since 2011, and is now cleared in 39 countries outside of the United States. Vidacare has not received any reports of complications related to the distal femur site since CE clearance. The distal femur target area is relatively large (measuring approximately 18 mm in width and 10 mm in height for a 2.7 kg infant) compared to the cleared sites of the proximal and distal tibia, making correct insertion easier. The landmarks (superior patella and distal femur) are easily identified. The closer proximity to the heart compared with the tibial sites provides quicker drug and fluid delivery to the central . circulation. In multiple publications describing intraosseous vascular access the distal femur IO insertion site is noted to be an option and has been used with success in pediatric patients. 3-8 - #### [807.92(b)(3)]: In consideration of our cadaveric studies, preclinical vascular flow studies and Vidacare's experience with the EZ-IO Intraosseous Infusion System we conclude that use of the distal femur as an IO insertion site is safe and effective. The only change to the Indications for Use is the addition of the distal femur site. The only change to the labeling in the proposed Directions for Use would be the additional technique for locating the anatomical landmarks for the distal femur and further detail to the general insertion instructions. #### [807.92(a)(5)]: ## (Proposed) Indications for Use: The EZ-IO Intraosseous Infusion System provides intraosseous access in the proximal tibia, distal tibia and humeral head (proximal humerus) of adult and pediatric patients, and the distal femur in pediatric patients when intravenous access is difficult or 5 {3}------------------------------------------------ K141117 Supplement 002 Traditional 510(k) Vidacare LLC: EZ-IO Intraosseous Infusion System -Expanded Indication- Distal Femur June 25, 2014 impossible to obtain in emergent, urgent, or medically necessary cases for up to 24 hours. ## [807.92(a)(6)]: Summary of the technological characteristics of this device compared to the predicate devices: The expanded indication requires no new technology to facilitate the safe application of the product. There have been no changes to the design or components of the devices cleared under K132583 and therefore, the comparison of technological characteristics listed below are identical: > Target Population Driver Design Features Needle Design Technique Sterility Biocompatibility Where Device is Used #### References: 1.
