Overview
AI-generated summary, 1 Oct 2026
The Dabra Excimer Laser System is a catheter for crossing total occlusions, combining a reusable 308nm excimer laser light source with a single-use catheter. This device is designed to facilitate the recanalization of chronic total occlusions (CTOs) in coronary or peripheral arteries by delivering high-energy ultraviolet laser pulses through a catheter to ablate calcified or fibrous plaque. The excimer laser technology enables precise tissue ablation while minimizing collateral damage to surrounding vascular structures.
The system is intended for use in catheterization laboratories by trained interventional cardiologists or vascular specialists. The excimer laser light source is reusable and requires e-beam sterilization, while the catheter is single-use and pre-sterilized. The device is classified as Class II under FDA regulations (product code PDU, regulation number 870.1250) and holds a FDA 510(k) clearance for substantial equivalence. No MRI safety information is specified, and the device is supplied as a kit containing the laser console and catheter, with storage conditions requiring protection from moisture and extreme temperatures.

Questions
AI-generated answers, 1 Oct 2026
What is the Dabra Excimer Laser System designed to treat?
The Dabra Excimer Laser System is specifically designed to facilitate the recanalization of chronic total occlusions (CTOs) in coronary or peripheral arteries. It uses high-energy ultraviolet laser pulses delivered through a catheter to ablate calcified or fibrous plaque, enabling precise tissue removal while minimizing damage to surrounding vascular structures. This makes it particularly useful for cases where traditional angioplasty or stenting may be challenging due to severe blockages.
How is the Dabra Excimer Laser System supplied, and what are its sterility requirements?
The Dabra Excimer Laser System is supplied as a kit containing the reusable laser console (model RA-308) and single-use catheters (model 2.0). The laser console requires e-beam sterilization before use, while the catheters are pre-sterilized and intended for single-use only. This design ensures sterility and safety for each procedure, as the catheter is discarded after use.
Is the Dabra Excimer Laser System reusable or single-use, and how does this affect its use?
The Dabra Excimer Laser System consists of two components with different reuse policies: the laser console (RA-308) is reusable and requires e-beam sterilization between uses, while the catheter (model 2.0) is designed for single-use only. This distinction allows the laser console to be used across multiple procedures, while the catheter’s single-use nature ensures sterility and reduces the risk of contamination for each patient.
What storage conditions are required for the Dabra Excimer Laser System?
The Dabra Excimer Laser System must be stored in a protected environment to prevent exposure to moisture and extreme temperatures. Proper storage conditions are critical to maintaining the integrity of the laser console and catheters, ensuring optimal performance and sterility. Always follow manufacturer guidelines for storage to avoid compromising the device’s functionality or safety.
What regulatory pathway does the Dabra Excimer Laser System follow, and what does this mean for clinicians?
The Dabra Excimer Laser System holds FDA 510(k) clearance, indicating it has been determined to be substantially equivalent to a legally marketed predicate device. This clearance is part of the traditional regulatory pathway, meaning it has undergone review by the FDA’s Cardiovascular Advisory Committee. Clinicians can rely on this clearance as evidence of the device’s safety and effectiveness for its intended use in recanalizing CTOs, though they should always follow local guidelines and institutional protocols.
