Intended use

The Endoflux™ Biliary & Pancreatic Stent Sets are endoscopic devices used to drain obstructed biliary and pancreatic ducts. The product line includes stents in various sizes (5-11.5 Fr, 2-18 cm lengths), along with guiding catheters, pushers, and stent introducer sets for placement via endoscopy over a guide wire.

Technological characteristics

The devices feature polymeric stents with radiopaque material, bent shapes and anti-migration features such as pigtails and flaps. Side ports assist drainage. Stents are deployed endoscopically over a guide wire. The introducer components include radiopaque bands and are supplied sterile, sterilized by ethylene oxide. Materials, dimensions, stent designs, and loading aids vary compared to predicates.

Test standards cited

ISO 10993-1:2018 (Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices – Part 1: Evaluation and Testing within a Risk Management Process) and ISO 10993-1 (September 8, 2023) were used for biocompatibility evaluation. Performance testing included dimensional, visual, tensile strength, MRI conditional, radiosity, flow rate, and shelf-life testing per Medi-Globe's design control system.

Substantial equivalence argument

The subject device has the same indications for use and technological characteristics as the predicate devices (Cook Biliary/Pancreatic Stents cleared under K172044 and K172057). Non-clinical testing demonstrates that the device meets design input requirements and establishes no change in safety and effectiveness profile compared to predicates, supporting substantial equivalence.
