Summary: The Angiodynamics Soft-Vu and Mariner Hydrophilic Coated Angiographic Catheter is used for angiographic procedures, primarily by interventional radiologists and cardiologists. It assists in the delivery of embolization agents and contrast media.
FDA Clearance Information
Pathway 510K
Number K061733 ↗
Decision Date August 24, 2006
Product Code DQO
Device Class Class 2
Evidence 419 studies
The Soft-Vu and Mariner Catheter by Angiodynamics was cleared through the FDA 510(k) pathway on August 24, 2006. It is a Class 2 medical device under product code DQO.
What It Is
This device is a hydrophilic coated angiographic catheter designed to facilitate the delivery of embolization agents and contrast media during angiographic procedures. The hydrophilic coating reduces friction, allowing for smoother navigation through the vasculature. It is commonly used in diagnostic and interventional procedures to visualize blood vessels and deliver therapeutic agents.
Clinical Applications
The Soft-Vu and Mariner Catheter is frequently used in interventional radiology and cardiology settings for procedures such as embolization, angiography, and other vascular interventions. It is suitable for use in both inpatient and outpatient settings, catering to a wide range of patient populations requiring vascular imaging or intervention.
Indications for Use
The catheter is indicated for use in procedures that require the delivery of embolization agents or contrast media into the vascular system. It is suitable for patients undergoing diagnostic angiography or therapeutic embolization.
Practical Considerations
The catheter is available in various sizes to accommodate different vascular anatomies and procedural requirements. It is compatible with standard angiographic equipment and requires careful handling to maintain the integrity of the hydrophilic coating.
