Indications for Use

The pVasc Net Mechanical Thrombectomy Device is indicated for: • The non-surgical removal of emboli and thrombi from peripheral blood vessels. • Temporary use in peripheral vessel occlusion. • Use with aspiration and with the injection or infusion of contrast media and other fluids.

Device Story

Mechanical thrombectomy device for peripheral vasculature; consists of laser-cut Nitinol tubular mesh basket with integrated small-mesh Nitinol net at distal tip; delivered via pusher-wire through compatible delivery catheters (0.021"-0.027"). Operated by physician under fluoroscopic guidance; radiopaque markers enable visualization. Device deployed distal to occlusion; basket expands to capture embolic material; retracted back to guide catheter to restore blood flow. Used in conjunction with aspiration. Benefits include effective clot retrieval and restoration of blood flow in peripheral vessels.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Testing included simulated use (trackability, deployment, clot retrieval, torque, kink, tensile strength, resheathing force), radial force, and comprehensive biocompatibility (cytotoxicity, sensitization, systemic toxicity, pyrogenicity, hemolysis, thrombogenicity). Additional testing leveraged from predicate included Af temperature, radiopacity, corrosion resistance, usability, sterilization, and shelf-life validation.

Technological Characteristics

Materials: Nitinol (basket, net), Platinum (markers), polymer (introducer sheath). Principle: Mechanical engagement/retrieval via expandable Nitinol basket. Dimensions: 2.0-6.0 mm vessel diameter, 22-46 mm basket length, 180 cm working length. Connectivity: None. Sterilization: Sterile, single-use. Software: None.

Indications for Use

Indicated for non-surgical removal of emboli and thrombi from peripheral blood vessels in adults; temporary use in peripheral vessel occlusion; use with aspiration and contrast media/fluid infusion.

You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading. If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898.

PRIMARY PREDICATE:** Proprietary Name: NeVa PV Thrombectomy System Product Code: QEW, KRA 510(k) Number: K201085 1 {5} ESALIO 510(k) SUMMARY K254211 ## Device Description: The pVasc Net Mechanical Thrombectomy Device is a mechanical thrombectomy device with an expandable distal tip which is temporarily inserted into the peripheral vasculature to restore blood flow in vessels blocked by emboli and thrombus. The expandable tip is a tubular mesh structure laser cut from Nitinol. It contains radiopaque markers to enable visualization under fluoroscopy. In its expanded shape, the device creates a highly flexible, hybrid closed cell structure. The pVasc Net Mechanical Thrombectomy Devices include a NET filter component which is a small-mesh nitinol component that is integrated at the distal portion of the basket. The pusher assembly is composed of an introducer sheath and delivery pusher-wire that are used to deliver the device to the treatment site. The introducer sheath is a polymer tube, which protects the device and distal segment of the delivery pusher-wire from damage and creates an uninterrupted passage for the device to be transferred into a delivery catheter. The pusher controls the deployment of the pVasc Net Device and facilitates advancement through a delivery catheter and retrieval of the device. It is used to track the device to the intended delivery site. The pVasc Net Mechanical Thrombectomy Devices are intended to be delivered through a compatible commercially available delivery catheters to the target vessels. The pVasc Net Mechanical Thrombectomy Device is provided sterile and intended for single-use only. ## Intended Use/Indication For Use: The pVasc Net Mechanical Thrombectomy Device is indicated for: - The non-surgical removal of emboli and thrombi from peripheral blood vessels. - Temporary use in peripheral vessel occlusion - Use with aspiration and with the injection or infusion of contrast media and other fluids. ## Indications for Use Comparison: The subject device and predicate device have identical Intended Use and Indications for Use. A detailed comparison of regulatory information in a tabular format is presented within Table 1 which compares the predicate to the pVasc Net Mechanical Thrombectomy Device. 2 {6} ESALIO 510(k) SUMMARY K254211 Table 1: Regulatory Substantial Equivalence Table (Subject Device and Predicate Device) | Device Name | pVasc Net Mechanical Thrombectomy Device Subject Device) | NeVa PV Thrombectomy Device (Primary predicate) | | --- | --- | --- | | 510(k) Number | K254211 | K201085 | | Company | Vesalio Inc. | Vesalio Inc. | | Classification | 21 CFR §870.5150: Embolectomy Catheter | 21 CFR §870.5150: Embolectomy Catheter | | Product Code | QEW: peripheral mechanical thrombectomy with aspiration | QEW: peripheral mechanical thrombectomy with aspiration | | Indications for Use | The pVasc Net Mechanical Thrombectomy Device is indicated for: •The non-surgical removal of emboli and thrombi from peripheral blood vessels. • Temporary use in peripheral vessel occlusion. • Use with aspiration and with the injection or infusion of contrast media and other fluids. | The NeVA PV Thrombectomy Device is indicated for: •The non-surgical removal of emboli and thrombi from peripheral blood vessels. • Temporary use in peripheral vessel occlusion. • Use with aspiration and with the injection or infusion of contrast media and other fluids. | | Principal of operation | The basket is deployed distal to the occluded vessels, captures the embolic material and retracts back to the guide catheter in order to restore blood flow | The basket is deployed distal to the occluded vessels, captures the embolic material and remaining embolic debris and retracts back to the guide catheter in order to restore blood flow. | ### Technological Comparison: The pVasc Net Mechanical Thrombectomy Device maintains the same fundamental technological characteristics and core design as the predicate NeVa PV Thrombectomy Device (K201085). Both devices consist of a pusher wire with an expandable Nitinol basket designed to mechanically engage and retrieve emboli and thrombi from peripheral vessels. The only difference between the subject and predicate devices is the incorporation of a small-mesh Nitinol net integrated into the distal portion of the Nitinol basket in the pVasc Net Mechanical Thrombectomy Device. A detailed comparison of technological information in a tabular format is presented within Table 2 which compares the predicate to the pVasc Net Mechanical Thrombectomy Device. 3 {7} ESALIO 510(k) SUMMARY K254211 Table 2: Technological Substantial Equivalence Table (Subject Device and Predicate Device) | Device Name | pVasc Net Mechanical Thrombectomy Device (Subject Device) | NeVa PV Thrombectomy Device (predicate) | | --- | --- | --- | | Design | 1.

These tests included the following: • Af Temperature • Radiopacity • Corrosion Resistance • Usability Testing • Sterilization Validation • Shelf-life Validation This testing demonstrates that the technological differences between the pVasc Net Mechanical Thrombectomy Device and the NeVa PV Thrombectomy Device do not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness. # **Conclusion:** Based on the above information, it is concluded that the pVasc Net Mechanical Thrombectomy Device is substantially equivalent to the predicate the NeVa™ PV Thrombectomy Device. 5
