Questions
AI-generated answers, 19 Sep 2026
What is the primary clinical purpose of this device in vascular procedures?
This device is specifically designed to help physicians cross total occlusions in native peripheral arteries during vascular interventions. It uses radio frequency energy to create a controlled pathway through chronic blockages, allowing subsequent placement of therapeutic or diagnostic tools like stents or catheters.
Is this device intended for reuse in clinical settings, or is it meant to be used only once?
The device is explicitly labeled for single-use in clinical settings, meaning it should not be reused after one procedure. This aligns with standard safety practices for invasive medical devices to prevent contamination or degradation of performance.
How was this modification to the original SAFE-CROSS system approved by the FDA?
The modification received FDA 510(k) clearance under Special Review (K033929) as a Class II device (product code DQX), demonstrating that it was determined to be substantially equivalent to a legally marketed predicate device. The review was conducted by the Cardiovascular (CV) Advisory Committee in 2004.
Are there any specific storage instructions provided for this device?
The provided data does not include details on storage conditions, such as temperature or shelf life. However, since it is a single-use device, it should be stored in its original packaging until use and handled according to standard sterile medical device protocols to maintain integrity.
