by Cordis US Corporation PMAGUDID
Active
PMA P890017
Overview
The Palmaz Balloon Expandable Stent is a stent, renal, classified as a Class III medical device under the FDA’s nomenclature. It is designed to mechanically expand and maintain the patency of renal arteries by providing structural support to the vessel wall, preventing restenosis or occlusion following angioplasty procedures.
This device is delivered via a catheter-based approach and is deployed using a balloon-expansion technique, ensuring precise placement within the renal artery. Supplied as a single-use, sterile product, it requires specialized interventional radiology or cardiology settings for implantation. The Palmaz Balloon Expandable Stent holds an FDA Premarket Approval (PMA) under PMA number P890017, with regulatory compliance tied to its designated product code NIN for renal artery interventions.

Questions
What is the primary clinical purpose of the Palmaz Balloon Expandable Stent and how is it deployed in the body?
The Palmaz Balloon Expandable Stent is designed to mechanically expand and maintain the openness of renal arteries, preventing blockages or narrowing (restenosis or occlusion) after angioplasty. It is deployed via a catheter-based approach, where the stent is positioned within the renal artery and expanded using a balloon inflation technique to provide structural support to the vessel wall.
Is the Palmaz Balloon Expandable Stent intended for single-use or can it be reused?
The Palmaz Balloon Expandable Stent is supplied as a single-use device. This means it is intended for one-time use in a patient and should not be reused or reprocessed for subsequent procedures.
What type of sterile packaging does the Palmaz Balloon Expandable Stent come in, and what are the recommended storage conditions?
The Palmaz Balloon Expandable Stent is supplied as a sterile product, ensuring it is ready for immediate use in sterile environments like interventional radiology or cardiology labs. While the exact packaging details are not provided, sterile medical devices like this typically require protection from moisture, extreme temperatures, and direct light. Follow manufacturer guidelines for storage, which may include refrigeration or room-temperature conditions as specified in the accompanying instructions.
What regulatory pathway was followed for the approval of the Palmaz Balloon Expandable Stent, and what does this mean for its use?
The Palmaz Balloon Expandable Stent received FDA Premarket Approval (PMA) under PMA number P890017, which is the highest level of regulatory review for Class III medical devices. This approval indicates that the device has undergone rigorous clinical trials and evaluation to ensure its safety and effectiveness for its intended use in mechanically expanding and maintaining renal artery patency. Clinicians should refer to the approved labeling and manufacturer instructions for proper use.
