Ra Medical Systems Files 510(k) Application for the DABRA Catheter with Braided Overjacket and Six-Month Shelf Life

“We are confident we’ve met our objective of designing a next-generation DABRA catheter that will allow physicians to better access difficult anatomy, which can be particularly challenging in the vasculature below the knee,” said Will McGuire, Ra Medical Systems CEO. “This 510(k) filing is a highly significant engineering and regulatory steppingstone toward our flagship commercial DABRA catheter, which will be a guidewire-compatible design.

“I’m proud of our team’s execution given the challenges they faced during these unprecedented times. I would like to thank the entire Ra Medical team and our physician partners who have helped us achieve this milestone,” he added.
