Diamondback 360 Peripheral Orbital Atherectomy System Diamondback 360 Peripheral Orbital Atherectomy System Exchangeable Series Stealth 360 Peripheral Orbital Atherectomy System
FDA Clearance Information
The Diamondback 360 Peripheral Orbital Atherectomy System was cleared by the FDA via the 510k pathway on March 1, 2022. It is manufactured by Cardiovascular Systems and classified as a Class 2 device.
What It Is
FDA-Cleared Indications
- Treatment of peripheral vascular disease involving stenotic or occluded peripheral arteries.
- Modification of stenotic or occlusive material, including calcified plaque, before or during endovascular treatment.
- Use in peripheral vessels that can accommodate the device according to the labeled size and access requirements.
Clinical Applications
- Plaque modification before balloon angioplasty in calcified peripheral arterial disease.
- Preparation of peripheral arterial lesions for other endovascular revascularization procedures.
- Treatment of calcified lesions in lower-extremity peripheral arteries when atherectomy is clinically appropriate.
- Use through an endovascular catheter system under fluoroscopic imaging.
Reported off-label uses
- Plaque modification in selected arterial beds or lesion types outside the device's specific labeling may be reported in clinical practice, but this should be considered off-label and requires individualized specialist judgment.
Off-label use: these uses are reported in practice or the literature but are not part of the FDA-cleared indications. Physicians may use a cleared device off-label based on their medical judgment; the manufacturer may not promote off-label uses.

Evidence Limitations
Practical Considerations
- The system is delivered through a vascular access sheath or catheter and requires fluoroscopic guidance; access is commonly obtained through the femoral or radial artery depending on the treatment plan.
- Available catheter and crown configurations have specific vessel-diameter, lesion-length, guidewire, sheath, and compatibility requirements. The current instructions for use should be checked before treatment.
- Orbital atherectomy removes or modifies plaque but may be followed by balloon angioplasty, stenting, or another revascularization technique when residual narrowing remains.
- Important risks include embolization, vessel dissection or perforation, thrombosis, distal ischemia, bleeding at the access site, contrast reactions, kidney injury, and need for additional treatment.
- MRI safety depends on the exact components and whether the device remains in the patient. The system is generally intended for single-use procedural treatment; the product labeling should be reviewed before MRI or reuse.
