PDU Device Classification - Class 2, Special Controls

Product Code PDU Catheter For Crossing Total Occlusions
Device Class Class 2 - Special Controls
CFR Regulation 21 CFR 870.1250
Definition To Facilitate The Intraluminal Placement Of Conventional Guidewires Beyond Stenotic Lesions (including Subchronic And Chronic Total Occlusions) In The Peripheral Vasculature Prior To Further Percutaneous Intervention, Such As Angioplasty, Atherectomy Or Stent Placement.
