TraumaGuard (TG) v2 is comprised of a urinary catheter that functions as a traditional Foley catheter to remove urine from the bladder, while also providing continuous measurement of IAP and core body temperature (CBT). A cable with separate controller and adapter components are used to connect to standard biometric monitors. The TG v2 catheter is similar to a traditional silicone Foley catheter used to drain urine from the bladder. Like other Foley catheters on the market, the TG v2 catheter is comprised of an extruded silicone shaft, over molded silicone hub, and a silicone retention balloon approximately 5cm from the tip of the catheter. The catheter contains a drainage lumen, balloon inflation channels, two opposite drainage eyes, and an atraumatic tip. The color-coded inflation and drainage ports are located on the catheter hub and can be operated | Premarket Notification for the TraumaGuard Intra-Abdominal Pressure Sensing System – Rev 2 Sentinel Medical Technology {5} K260756 Page 2 of 12 using a Luer syringe. The catheter connects to the cable using a keyed connector. The TG v2 catheter design also includes a polyurethane sensing balloon used to detect changes in IAP. The sensing balloon is filled with 3cc of air and acts to average the pressure within the bladder environment as a proxy for true IAP. The pressure is passed through a hole in the catheter body to a digital pressure sensor housed in the catheter tip. Pressure is passed as an electrical signal from the catheter to the controller cable through a standard off-the-shelf-connector. Core body temperature is measured by a thermistor located adjacent to the digital pressure sensor, with the signal routed via wires through the TG v2 catheter shaft. The temperature read by the thermistor is directly passed through the catheter to the controller and adapter cables to be read by the patient monitor with no interference or alteration by the TraumaGuard system. The TG v2 cable consists of a patient monitor adapter component and a controller component. When connected, the cable provides power to the TraumaGuard catheter and transmits pressure and temperature data to the patient monitor. Additionally, the controller contains a display, buttons, and LED indicators. Each TG v2 catheter is sterile, individually pouched, and for single use. The TG v2 controller and adapter cable components may be cleaned by standard wipe down and are reusable. Each TG v2 is sterile and individually pouched. TG v2 cables are reusable. TG v2 is a single use catheter intended for short-term use (no more than 30 days).

Device Comparison Discussion The TraumaGuard v2 Intra-abdominal Pressure Sensing System is an updated design of the predicate TraumaGuard Intra-abdominal Pressure Sensing System. The updated design simplifies catheter-to-cable connection, reduces the number of components in the catheter, reduces Cost of Goods Sold (COGS), while retaining equivalent fundamental technology, intended use, and principle of operation. Both devices are comprised of a Foley catheter that measures intra-abdominal pressure and core body temperature, and a cable used to connect to standard biometric patient monitors. The underlying scientific principle of using bladder pressure as a surrogate for intra-abdominal pressure remains the same. The design of the TraumaGuard v2 catheter is functionally equivalent to the predicate device. Both devices operate as Foley catheters intended for bladder drainage, intra-abdominal pressure measurement, and core body temperature monitoring. Both devices are silicone, retention-type Foley catheters incorporating inflation channels, drainage holes, a drainage lumen, a retention balloon, and an outer pressure-sensing balloon. The working length, French size, and body-contacting materials are also identical between the two catheters. Additionally, both devices measure core body temperature via a thermistor routed through the catheter shaft. The difference between the TraumaGuard v2 catheter and predicate catheter is the design of the pressure measurement system. The digital pressure sensor has been moved from within the cable (TraumaGuard) to inside of the catheter itself (TraumaGuard v2). In the predicate TraumaGuard catheter, the pressure-sensing mechanism utilized a balloon at the catheter tip connected to an air column. When Intra-abdominal pressure increased, the outer balloon compressed the inner balloon, displacing air through the air column and generating tension at the connector in the catheter hub, which was transmitted to a pressure sensor in the cable. In the TraumaGuard v2 catheter, the pressure sensor has been moved to replace the inner balloon and air column within the catheter shaft. As the outer balloon constricts in response to pressure changes, the sensor directly measures the pressure and transmits the resulting electrical signal through the cable to the patient monitor. Along with the catheter, the design of the TraumaGuard v2 cable is functionally equivalent to that of the predicate TraumaGuard cable in supplying power to the catheter and transmitting pressure and temperature measurement signals to the patient monitor. However, the TraumaGuard v2 cable consists of separate controller and adapter components rather than the single integrated cable. In addition, the updated pressure sensing system allows for the use of standard off-the-shelf connectors to connect the device components, as opposed to the custom connectors required for the predicate device. Premarket Notification for the TraumaGuard Intra-Abdominal Pressure Sensing System Sentinel Medical Technology {10} K260756 Page 7 of 12 | Functional and Safety Testing: | Representative samples of the TraumaGuard device were tested in accordance with the company's design control procedures to ensure the functional and performance requirements of the device were met. Finished, sterile devices underwent MRI safety testing in simulated conditions. A study was performed to evaluate magnetically induced displacement force, magnetically induced torque, image artifact, RF-induced heating and RF exposure in the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) environment for the Trauma Guard Catheter. This study established MRI safety conditions in accordance with ASTM F2503-20. The Standard used lists the MRI safety evaluations and the associated ASTM standard test methods. Catheter Pressure Measurement Performance Testing: Per Design Verification Report DVR0003 (Dynamic & Static Pressure Test, Rev A), a sample of 12 TraumaGuard v2 catheter units was tested on a qualified dynamic test stand to verify requirement DREQ-6 (Catheter Enables Pressure Measurement) across the clinically relevant IAP range of 5-25 mmHg. Catheters were submerged in a temperature-controlled water column at 37 ± 1°C and evaluated under dynamic step-pressure testing and a continuous 24-hour static hold at 15 mmHg, with a repeat dynamic run performed after the static hold. All 12 units met the acceptance criteria at both timepoints: measurement accuracy within ±3 mmHg of the reference gauge, response time to | | --- | --- | Premarket Notification for the TraumaGuard Intra-Abdominal Pressure Sensing System Sentinel Medical Technology {11} K260756 Page 8 of 12 | | detect and report a pressure change within 120 seconds, and static stability within ±3 mmHg over 24 hours. This testing was conducted under protocol DVP0003 and statistically evaluated per SOP-013, within the company's ISO 13485:2016 quality system and ISO 14971:2019 risk management framework. DVR0002 Drainage Lumen Flow Rate summarizes the results of testing as part of design verification for TraumaGuard device requirement specifying that the TraumaGuard v2 catheter must allow for a minimum flow rate of 100 mL/min through the drainage holes when both the retention and pressure sensing balloons are inflated. This specification is based on the performance requirements given by ISO 20696 Sterile Urethral Catheters for Single Use and ASTM F623 Standard Performance Specification for Foley Catheter. The results of testing and statistical analysis demonstrate that the minimum expected flow rate for the TraumaGuard v2 catheter is 400 mL/min. These results meet the minimum specification of 100 mL/min. Therefore, it is concluded that the TraumaGuard v2 catheter satisfies the flow rate device requirement given by DREQ-2 Flow Rate, and the catheter is thereby compliant with ISO 20696 and ASTM F623. DVR0006 TraumaGuard Temperature Measurement Test summarizes the results of testing as part of design verification for TraumaGuard device requirements ensuring that the TraumaGuard v2 catheter accurately measures core body temperature within a range of 34°C to 42°C with an accuracy of ±1°C, equivalent to the predicate device. The catheter must detect a 2°C change within 2 minutes (120 seconds). The results of testing demonstrate that the accuracy and response time of the TraumaGuard v2 catheter meet the respective specifications of ±1°C and 120 seconds. Therefore, it is concluded that the TraumaGuard v2 catheter satisfies the temperature measurement requirements given by Design | | --- | --- | Premarket Notification for the TraumaGuard Intra-Abdominal Pressure Sensing System Sentinel Medical Technology {12} K260756 Page 9 of 12 | | requirement # DREQ-4 Catheter Enables Temperature Measurements. **Electrical Safety and Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Testing:** Per Design Verification Report DVR0011 (IEC 60601 Compliance Report, Rev 1), the TraumaGuard v2 catheter, controller cable, and adapter cable were tested by F2 Labs, an accredited third-party laboratory, under Test Report No. F2X35630B-01S. Overall result: "Does meet all requirements," with no items of concern or failures observed against IEC 60601-1:2005+AMD1:2012+AMD2:2020/EN 60601-1:2006, covering power inputs, humidity, accessible parts, marking legibility/durability, working voltage, leakages, dielectrics, ball pressure, temperatures, ingress protection, cleaning, limited energy, and mechanical stress (push, impact, drop, mould stress) clauses. Ingress protection was separately verified to an IP21 rating (protection against access to hazardous parts and against dripping water) per IEC/EN 60529. As part of this assessment, F2 Labs also audited the TraumaGuard v2 risk management file against ISO 14971:2019 and reviewed labeling and Instructions for Use against IEC 60601-1 documentation requirements, with all reviewed items found compliant. EMC testing was performed under DVR0011, Attachment 2 (F2 Labs Report No. F2X35630B-01E) per IEC 60601-1-2:2014+A1:2020/EN 60601-1-2:2015, with an overall result of "PASS," meeting ASCA program specifications. Testing addressed radiated and conducted emissions (CISPR 11:2015+A1:2016+A2:2019) and immunity to electrostatic discharge, radiated RF fields, close-proximity RF fields (e.g., RFID), electrical fast transient/burst, surge, conducted RF, power-frequency magnetic fields, and voltage dips/interruptions (IEC 61000-4-2, -3, -4, -5, -6, -8, -11, and -39), with all results within acceptance limits. | | --- | --- | Premarket Notification for the TraumaGuard Intra-Abdominal Pressure Sensing System Sentinel Medical Technology {13} K260756 Page 10 of 12 | | The following standards were used in testing: **LABELING, SYMBOLS & USABILITY** - EN ISO 15223-1:2021 + Amd 1:2025 – Medical devices — Symbols to be used with information to be supplied by the manufacturer — Part 1: General requirements (Fourth edition, 2021-07);
