FDA Clearance Information

Pathway 510K
Decision Date May 27, 2015
Product Code OCY
Device Class Class 2
Evidence 419 studies

The Orchestra Hydrophilic Guidewire by Coloplast A/S was cleared through the FDA 510(k) pathway on May 27, 2015. It is a Class 2 medical device under product code OCY.

What It Is

The Orchestra Hydrophilic Guidewire is a medical device designed to assist in navigating through the vascular system during procedures. It features a hydrophilic coating that reduces friction, allowing for smoother passage through blood vessels. The guidewire comes in various configurations, including standard and stiff, with angled or straight tips, to accommodate different procedural needs.

Clinical Applications

This guidewire is commonly used in interventional radiology and vascular surgery for procedures such as angioplasty, stent placement, and embolization. It is particularly useful in navigating tortuous or narrow vessels, making it suitable for patients with complex vascular anatomies. The device is typically used in hospital settings, including catheterization labs and operating rooms.

Indications for Use

The FDA indications suggest that this guidewire is intended for use in procedures requiring the navigation of blood vessels, such as during the delivery of embolization agents. It is suitable for patients needing vascular interventions.

Practical Considerations

The Orchestra Hydrophilic Guidewire is available in various lengths and diameters to suit different procedural requirements. It is compatible with a range of catheters and should be selected based on the specific clinical scenario. Proper technique in handling and insertion is crucial to avoid vessel damage.
