Intended Use

The Reprocessed Cristacath Diagnostic EP Catheter is indicated for electrophysiological mapping of cardiac structures, i.e. stimulation and recording only. The catheter is designed to facilitate electrograms in the atrial regions of the heart.

Device Story

Reprocessed diagnostic electrophysiology (EP) catheter; used for mapping cardiac structures; facilitates stimulation and recording of electrograms in atrial regions. Device features high-torque shaft; deflectable tip controlled by proximal handpiece piston; platinum electrodes visible under fluoroscopy. Operated by physicians in clinical settings. Reprocessing involves cleaning, decontamination, inspection, and functional testing to ensure performance equivalent to original device. Benefits include enabling accurate positioning for cardiac electrogram acquisition; supports clinical decision-making during EP studies.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Evidence includes biocompatibility, cleaning validation, sterilization validation, functional testing (visual inspection, dimensional verification, electrical continuity/resistance, simulated use, mechanical characteristics), electrical safety testing (dielectric and current leakage), and packaging validation.

Technological Characteristics

Diagnostic EP catheter with high-torque shaft and platinum electrodes. Deflectable tip mechanism via proximal handpiece piston. Reprocessed device; limited to one reprocessing cycle. Sterilization and cleaning validation performed. No changes to original predicate materials or specifications.

Indications for Use

Indicated for electrophysiological mapping, stimulation, and recording of cardiac structures, specifically atrial regions, in patients requiring cardiac electrophysiology procedures.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

An electrode recording catheter or an electrode recording probe is a device used to detect an intracardiac electrocardiogram, or to detect cardiac output or left-to-right heart shunts. The device may be unipolar or multipolar for electrocardiogram detection, or may be a platinum-tipped catheter which senses the presence of a special indicator for cardiac output or left-to-right heart shunt determinations.

The catheters have a high-torque shaft with a tip section containing ten pairs of platinum electrodes that can easily be seen under fluoroscopy. The Deflectable Tip CristaCath catheters facilitate simultaneous local electrograms due to the greater number of electrodes and their deflection capabilities. The deflection is controlled at the proximal end by a tubular handpiece in which a piston slides. When the piston is pushed forward with the thumbknob, the tip is deflected (curved). When the piston is pulled back, the tip straightens. The high-torque shaft allows the plan of the curved tip to be rotated to facilitate accurate positioning of the catheter tip at the desired site. {5}------------------------------------------------ The item numbers included in the scope of this submission are as follows: | ltem Number | Description | Sheath<br>Usable<br>Length<br>(cm) | French<br>Size | Curve | Number of<br>Electrodes | Spacing<br>(mm) | |-------------|-----------------------------------------|------------------------------------|----------------|-------------------|-------------------------|-----------------| | D7A20131RT | CristaCath<br>Diagnostic EP<br>Catheter | 115 | 7F | D-<br>Type/Crista | 20 | 1-3-1 | Table 5.1: Item Numbers # Indications for Use: The Reprocessed CristaCath Diagnostic EP Catheter is indicated for electrophysiological mapping of cardiac structures, i.e. stimulation and recording only.

Each device is inspected and function tested prior to packaging and labeling. # Functional and Safety Testing: Bench and laboratory testing was conducted to demonstrate performance (safety and effectiveness) of the Reprocessed CristaCath Diagnostic EP Catheters. This included the following: - Biocompatibility ● - Cleaning Validation ● - Sterilization Validation ● - Functional Testing - Visual Inspection ● - Dimensional Verification ● - Electrical Continuity and Resistance . - Simulated Use ● - . Mechanical Characteristics - Electrical Safety Testing ● - . Dielectric and Current Leakage - . Packaging Validation The Reprocessed CristaCath Diagnostic Electrophysiology (EP) Catheters are reprocessed no more than one (1) time. Each device is marked and tracked. After the device has reached the maximum number of reprocessing cycles, the device is rejected from further reprocessing. Reprocessing is performed only by Innovative Health. {6}------------------------------------------------ Innovative Health restricts its reprocessing to exclude devices previously reprocessed by other reprocessors. #### Conclusion: Innovative Health concludes that the Reprocessed CristaCath Diagnostic EP Catheters are as safe and effective as the predicate devices described herein.
