(118 days)
Medline ReNewal Reprocessed Boston Scientific Dynamic Tip Unidirectional Steerable Diagnostic Catheters are indicated for use to diagnose cardiac arrhythmia.
The steerable diagnostic electrode catheters are radiopaque, flexible, insulated catheters with a polymer shaft, each having a mechanical operating mechanism. In each catheter the polymer shaft connects to the catheter handle whereby the curve or loop is actuated by a single pull cable. The Dynamic Tip Catheters have a plunger mechanism, which, when moved forward or back, results in curvature of the distal tip.

Regulation Name: Electrode recording catheter or electrode recording probe
Regulatory Class: Class II
Product Code: NLH
Dated: July 31, 2025
Received: October 29, 2025
Dear Kelsey LeMay:
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 (the 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 available 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.

Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download).
Your device is also subject to, among other requirements, the Quality System (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820), which includes, but is not limited to, 21 CFR 820.30, Design controls; 21 CFR 820.90, Nonconforming product; and 21 CFR 820.100, Corrective and preventive action. Please note that regardless of whether a change requires premarket review, the QS regulation requires device manufacturers to review and approve changes to device design and production (21 CFR 820.30 and 21 CFR 820.70) and document changes and approvals in the device master record (21 CFR 820.181).
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); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR Part 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reporting-combination-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 Part 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR Parts 1000-1050.
All medical devices, including Class I and unclassified devices and combination product device constituent parts are required to be in compliance with the final Unique Device Identification System rule ("UDI Rule"). The UDI Rule requires, among other things, that a device bear a unique device identifier (UDI) on its label and package (21 CFR 801.20(a)) unless an exception or alternative applies (21 CFR 801.20(b)) and that the dates on the device label be formatted in accordance with 21 CFR 801.18. The UDI Rule (21 CFR 830.300(a) and 830.320(b)) also requires that certain information be submitted to the Global Unique Device Identification Database (GUDID) (21 CFR Part 830 Subpart E). For additional information on these requirements, please see the UDI System webpage at https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/device-advice-comprehensive-regulatory-assistance/unique-device-identification-system-udi-system.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 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-devices/medical-device-safety/medical-device-reporting-mdr-how-report-medical-device-problems.
For comprehensive regulatory information about medical devices and radiation-emitting products, including information about labeling regulations, please see Device Advice (https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/device-advice-comprehensive-regulatory-assistance) and CDRH Learn (https://www.fda.gov/training-and-continuing-education/cdrh-learn).

Technological Characteristics
The technological characteristics, materials, and the fundamental scientific technology of the subject device are equivalent to the predicate devices. The proposed devices are reprocessed versions of the predicate devices. Each device undergoes a validated process that includes cleaning, inspections and functional tests, packaging, and sterilization. Devices are tracked to ensure they do not exceed the number of validated reprocessing cycles (1). Devices that have reached the maximum number of cycles or do not meet inspection criteria are rejected and disposed of appropriately. The predicate devices were used to support intended use, technological characteristics, and functional performance specifications.
Non-clinical Testing Summary
The functional characteristics of the subject device have been evaluated and found to be substantially equivalent to the predicate device based on the following tests:
- Functional performance studies:
- visual inspection;
- dimensional measurement;
- electrical safety;
- mechanical characteristics;
- continuity, isolation, resistance; and
- corrosion resistance.
- Cleaning validation
- Biocompatibility
- Packaging and shelf-life validation
- Sterilization validation
- Product stability

Each catheter is reprocessed no more than one time. Medline ReNewal does not reprocess the Dynamic Tip Unidirectional Steerable Diagnostic Catheters of other reprocessors.
Conclusion
The predicate and proposed devices in this application have the same indications for use, intended use, and technological characteristics. Based on this and the non-clinical testing data presented in this 510(k) submission, the Medline ReNewal Reprocessed Boston Scientific Dynamic Tip Unidirectional Steerable Diagnostic Catheters are substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
§ 870.1220 Electrode recording catheter or electrode recording probe.
(a)
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.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
