Intended Use

The LASSO® NAV Duo Loop eco Catheter is indicated for multiple electrode electrophysiological mapping of the cardiac structures of the heart, i.e. recording or stimulation only. The catheter is designed to obtain electrograms in the atrial regions of the heart.

The LASSO® NAV Duo Loop eco Catheter provides location information when used with compatible CARTO® 3 EP Navigation Systems. (This catheter is not compatible with CARTO® 3 EP Navigation Systems prior to Version 3.2.)

Device Description

The LASSO*NAV Duo Loop eco Catheter has been designed to facilitate electrophysiological mapping of the atria of the heart with the CARTO® 3 EP Navigation System and a reference device. The catheter is deployed in the right or left atrium through an 8F guiding sheath. The bi-directional catheter consists of a circular spine on the distal tip, with platinum/iridium electrodes that can be used for stimulation and recording. The purpose of this Premarket Notification is to create a bi-directional fixed multi-loop high density circular diagnostic catheter for recording intracardiac signals and cardiac stimulation. The modifications consist of changing from a single variable loop to a fixed spiral loop, including an insertion tool with atraumatic tip to the catheter, and incorporating a bi-directional deflection in two directions) feature to the distal end of the catheter. The new catheter will retain the extended barrel ("pig tail") connector and will connect to the system cable by way of an accessory cable.

The LASSO® NAV Duo Loop eco Catheter features a fixed spiral loop design available in two diameters, 20mm diameter and 25mm diameter. Each catheter with 20 electrodes spaced along its multiple loops in a uni-polar configuration for the 20mm and either a uni-polar or bi-polar configuration for the 25mm.

The proposed catheters will continue to interface with standard recording equipment via interface cables and appropriate connectors.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a medical device, the LASSO® NAV Duo Loop eco Catheter, and its 510(k) summary (K130602). It focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices for electrophysiological mapping.

Based on the provided text, here's a breakdown of the requested information:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

Acceptance Criteria CategoryReported Device Performance
Safety and Performance ValidationDemonstrated through Bench Testing, Biocompatibility Testing, GLP Animal Study, and System Level Testing. Passed all intended criteria.
Integrity and Performance (post-sterilization, aging, transport)Catheter integrity and performance validated after: - Three times ethylene oxide (EtO) sterilization - Thermal cycling - Accelerated aging (equivalent to one year real-time) - Simulated transportation conditions
Compatibility with CARTO® 3 EP Navigation SystemThe proposed catheter was tested with the CARTO® 3 EP Navigation System (Version 3.2 or later) to demonstrate compatibility.
Substantial EquivalenceConcluded that minor differences in design and use between the predicate device and the LASSO® NAV Duo Loop eco Catheter do not compromise safety and efficacy. Device is at least as safe and effective as legally marketed predicate devices.
Technological ComparisonThe technological comparison demonstrated safety and effectiveness for anatomic mapping of the heart and established equivalence.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance

The document does not specify a sample size for a "test set" in the context of a clinical study involving patients or human data. The testing described primarily involves engineering and animal studies:

  • Bench Testing: Performed on the device itself.
  • Biocompatibility Testing: Likely performed on device materials or extracted components, not on human patients as a "test set."
  • GLP Animal Study: Involves animal subjects, not human patients. The number of animals is not specified, nor is the country of origin of the study.
  • System Level Testing: Involves the device interacting with the CARTO® 3 EP Navigation System.

The data provenance is primarily from non-clinical studies (bench, animal) conducted by the manufacturer, Biosense Webster, Inc. The country of origin of the data is not explicitly stated beyond the applicant's address in Diamond Bar, CA, USA. All this data is retrospective in the sense that it was generated prior to the 510(k) submission.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

This information is not provided in the document. The document describes technical, biocompatibility, and animal studies, not studies where human experts establish ground truth for a diagnostic AI/algorithm's performance.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

This information is not provided in the document. Adjudication methods are typically relevant for clinical studies involving interpretation of data by multiple human experts, which is not described here.

5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

No, a multi-reader, multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study comparing human readers with and without AI assistance was not done or at least not reported in this document. The device is a physical catheter for electrophysiological mapping, not an AI-driven diagnostic software, and the testing focuses on its safety and physical performance.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

The device is a physical catheter, not an algorithm. Therefore, no standalone algorithm-only performance study was conducted or reported.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)

Given the nature of the device (a catheter for electrical signal recording and stimulation), the "ground truth" for its performance validation is inherently different from that of a diagnostic algorithm.

  • For Bench Testing, the ground truth would be engineering specifications and standards (e.g., integrity, electrical conductivity, mechanical properties).
  • For Biocompatibility Testing, the ground truth is established by ISO standards and tests for material safety in biological environments.
  • For the GLP Animal Study, the ground truth would be the physiological responses measured in the animals using established scientific methods, to confirm the catheter's ability to record signals and its safety in a living system.

8. The sample size for the training set

This information is not applicable as the device is a physical catheter, not a machine learning algorithm that requires a "training set."

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

This information is not applicable as the device is a physical catheter and does not involve a training set.

SUBSTANTIALLY EQUIVALENT TO:

The Biosense Webster LASSO®NA V Duo Loop eco Catheter is substantially equivalent to the Biosense Webster LASSO® 2515 NAV eco Variable Catheter [510(k) K113213, cleared December 5, 2011] and the Biosense Webster® CS Catheter with EZ Steer Technology [510(k) K101345, cleared May 13, 2010]. Like the predicate device, the LASSO®NAV Duo Loop eco Catheter features a tri-axial magnetic location sensor, allowing the ability to provide location information when used with the CARTO® 3 EP Navigation System, Version 3.2. The proposed catheter also has a similar circular loop of 20 electrodes at the distal tip of a 7 Fr diameter catheter, the same patient contact materials, and the same catheter connectivity as the predicate device. The original

{1}------------------------------------------------

intended use of the predicate device for diagnosis of heart arrhythmias remains the same in the proposed device: however, the proposed device will now have the added ability of deflecting in two directions (bi-directional). This latter capability is substantially equivalent to the Reference Device, the Webster® CS Catheter with EZ Steer Technology. The Webster® CS Catheter with EZ Steer Technology went through this same transition with FDA when FDA cleared the update of the uni-directional version to the bi-directional version.

DESCRIPTION OF THE DEVICE SUBJECT TO PREMARKET NOTIFICATION:

The LASSO*NAV Duo Loop eco Catheter has been designed to facilitate electrophysiological mapping of the atria of the heart with the CARTO® 3 EP Navigation System and a reference device. The catheter is deployed in the right or left atrium through an 8F guiding sheath. The bi-directional catheter consists of a circular spine on the distal tip, with platinum/iridium electrodes that can be used for stimulation and recording. The purpose of this Premarket Notification is to create a bi-directional fixed multi-loop high density circular diagnostic catheter for recording intracardiac signals and cardiac stimulation. The modifications consist of changing from a single variable loop to a fixed spiral loop, including an insertion tool with atraumatic tip to the catheter, and incorporating a bi-directional deflection in two directions) feature to the distal end of the catheter. The new catheter will retain the extended barrel ("pig tail") connector and will connect to the system cable by way of an accessory cable.

The LASSO® NAV Duo Loop eco Catheter features a fixed spiral loop design available in two diameters, 20mm diameter and 25mm diameter. Each catheter with 20 electrodes spaced along its multiple loops in a uni-polar configuration for the 20mm and either a uni-polar or bi-polar configuration for the 25mm.

The proposed catheters will continue to interface with standard recording equipment via interface cables and appropriate connectors.

INDICATIONS FOR USE:

The LASSO® NAV Duo Loop eco Catheter is indicated for multiple electrode electrophysiological mapping of the cardiac structures of the heart, i.e. recording or stimulation only. The catheter is designed to obtain electrograms in the atrial regions of the heart.

The LASSO® NAV Duo Loop eco Catheter provides location information when used with compatible CARTO® 3 EP Navigation Systems. (This catheter is not compatible with CARTO 3 EP Navigation Systems prior to Version 3.2.)

TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS:

The LASSO® NAV Duo Loop eco Catheter is a typical electrophysiological catheter that is unique only in its geometrical arrangement of 20 ring electrodes spaced along its

{2}------------------------------------------------

multiple loops. Otherwise, there are no special technical aspects of the ability of this catheter to detect electrical signals from heart endocardium and transmit this information to the CARTO® 3 EP Navigation System and/or recording equipment for display, analysis, and interpretation in detection of various heart arrhythmias.

PERFORMANCE DATA:

The safety and performance of the LASSO® NAV Duo Loop eco Catheter have been validated through Bench Testing, Biocompatibility Testing, GLP Animal Study, and System Level Testing. Bench testing evaluated the integrity and performance of the LASSO® NAV Duo Loop eco Catheter following three times ethylene oxide (EtO) sterilization, thermal cycling, accelerated aging (equivalent to one year real-time aging), and simulated transportation conditions. After thorough investigations and mitigations where appropriate, the device passed all intended criteria in accordance with appropriate test criteria and standards. In addition, the proposed catheter was tested with the CARTO® 3 EP Navigation System to demonstrate compatibility. Based on the results of the risk analysis and the bench testing performed, it is concluded that the minor differences in design and use that exist between the predicate device and the LASSO® NAV Duo Loop eco Catheter do not compromise the safety and efficacy of the catheter. This testing demonstrates that the subject device is at least as safe and effective as the legally marketed predicate devices.

BASIS FOR DETERMINATION OF SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE:

The technological comparison and nonclinical studies demonstrate that the LASSO® NAV Duo Loop eco Catheter is safe and effective for anatomic mapping of the heart and establish equivalence to its predicate and reference devices.
