Intended Use
The Reprocessed Inquiry Steerable Diagnostic Electrophysiology Catheters are used for electrogram recording and cardiac stimulation during diagnostic electrophysiology studies. The catheters are commonly placed at the hight atrium, right ventricular apex, and HIS bundle.
Device Story
Flexible, insulated diagnostic EP catheters; constructed of thermoplastic elastomer and noble metal electrodes; steerable tip manipulated via proximal handle control mechanism. Used in clinical electrophysiology labs by physicians for electrogram recording and cardiac stimulation. Device inputs are electrical signals from cardiac tissue; outputs are recorded electrograms and delivered stimulation pulses. Reprocessed by Innovative Health, LLC; includes cleaning, decontamination, inspection, and functional testing. Maximum of three reprocessing cycles allowed; each device marked and tracked. Benefits include continued clinical utility of diagnostic catheters through validated reprocessing.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data presented. Testing included biocompatibility, cleaning validation, sterilization validation, and functional testing (visual inspection, dimensional verification, electrical continuity/resistance, simulated use, mechanical characteristics, electrical safety/dielectric/leakage, and packaging validation) to support three reprocessing cycles.
Technological Characteristics
Thermoplastic elastomer body with noble metal electrodes. Steerable tip with handle-based control mechanism. Dimensions vary by model (4F-7F, 60-110cm length). Connectivity: passive electrode recording/stimulation. Sterilization: validated method maintained. Software: None.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients undergoing diagnostic electrophysiology studies requiring electrogram recording and cardiac stimulation; catheters are placed at the high right atrium, right ventricular apex, and HIS bundle.
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.

Dear Amanda Babcock:
# (NOTE: Reprocessed SUD device types require a separate attachment of the list of all models cleared in the submission. A corrected SE letter will be required if the attachment is omitted.)
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
{1}------------------------------------------------
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801 and Part 809); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to https://www.fda.gov/medical-device-safety/medical-device-reportingmdr-how-report-medical-device-problems.

This 510(k) increases the Reprocessing Cycles for the devices cleared under K171277 from one (1) to three (3).
## Indications for Use:
The Reprocessed Inquiry Steerable Diagnostic Electrophysiology Catheters are used for electrogram recording and cardiac stimulation during diagnostic electrophysiology studies. The catheters are commonly placed at the high right atrium, right ventricular apex, and HIS bundle.
## Technological Characteristics:
The purpose, design, materials, function, and intended use of the Reprocessed Inquiry Steerable Diagnostic Electrophysiology (EP) Catheters are identical to the predicate devices. There are no changes to the claims, clinical applications, patient population, performance specifications, or method of operation. In addition, Innovative Health's reprocessing of these devices includes removal of visible soil and decontamination. 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 Inquiry Steerable Diagnostic EP Catheter for three (3) reprocessing cycles. 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 Inquiry Steerable Diagnostic EP Catheters are reprocessed no more than three (3) times. 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. Innovative Health restricts its reprocessing to exclude devices previously reprocessed by other reprocessors.
{7}------------------------------------------------
## Predicate Comparison:
A comparison of the device and reprocessing methods with the predicates are provided in the table below:
| | K203261 | K171277 | K982232 | K961924 |
|-------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------|------------------------------|-----------|-----------|

| Reprocessing<br>Cycles: | 3 | 1 | 0 | 0 |
| Reprocessing<br>Method: | Change to processing<br>parameters and method.<br>Shelf life change. | Cleared/validated<br>process | N/A | N/A |
| Sterilization: | Change to release<br>method. No change to the<br>sterilization method or<br>SAL. | Cleared/validated<br>process | N/A | N/A |
| Routine<br>Monitoring: | Change to frequency and<br>adjustment of limits. | Cleared process | N/A | N/A |
### Conclusion:
Innovative Health concludes that the Reprocessed Inquiry Steerable Diagnostic EP Catheters are as safe and effective as the predicate devices described herein.
