Intended Use
The Continuous Cardiac Output Pulmonary Artery Catheter and Continuous Cardiac Output Monitor system's intended use is for the assessment of a patient's haemodynamic condition through direct intracardiac (right heart) and pulmonary artery pressure monitoring, cardiac output determination and for infusing solutions. The distal port on the catheter also allows for sampling of venous blood.
Device Story
System comprises six-lumen, heparin-coated PVC pulmonary artery catheter (TruCATH) and microprocessor-based monitor (TruCCOM). Catheter placed in right heart/pulmonary artery; monitor calculates cardiac output via thermodynamic heat transfer principle using thermal coil on catheter. Clinician may also perform intermittent cardiac output measurements using injectate. Monitor displays hemodynamic data for clinical decision-making. Used in clinical settings by healthcare providers. Modifications include repositioned heat transfer device, flexible extension tubes, improved luer lock bonding, mechanical display changes, and updated user interface software for enhanced electromagnetic compatibility.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Testing included functional bench testing, visual testing, pull tests, electromagnetic compatibility testing, and software validation to demonstrate substantial equivalence.
Technological Characteristics
Six-lumen, heparin-coated polyvinyl chloride (PVC) flow-directed pulmonary artery catheter. Microprocessor-based monitor. Thermodynamic heat transfer principle for cardiac output calculation. Connectivity: Interfaced system (catheter to monitor).
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring hemodynamic assessment via direct intracardiac and pulmonary artery pressure monitoring, cardiac output determination, infusion of solutions, and venous blood sampling.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A flow-directed catheter is a device that incorporates a gas-filled balloon to help direct the catheter to the desired position.

extensions of the catheter are attached to the second part of the system, the Monitor. The Continuous Cardiac Output Monitor, (catalogue # TruCCOM), is a microprocessor-based computer which, when interfaced with the TruCATH, continuously calculates and displays cardiac output. The Monitor calculates cardiac output based on the thermodynamic principle of heat transfer using thermal power produced by the thermal coil area on the Catheter. Alternatively, the monitor can also be used by the clinician to measure cardiac output intermittently through using the injectate capabilities of the catheter. Intended Use: The Continuous Cardiac Output Pulmonary Artery Catheter and Continuous Cardiac Output Monitor system's intended use is for the assessment of a patient's haemodynamic condition through direct intracardiac (right heart) and pulmonary artery pressure monitoring, cardiac output determination and for infusing solutions. The distal port on the catheter also allows for sampling of venous blood. Comparison to Predicate Device: The modifications in comparison with the previously cleared device are as follows (these modifications do not affect the intended use of the device or alter the fundamental scientific technology of the device): a) Catheter i. Re-position the heat transfer device (HTD) to assist the user in correctly positioning the HTD. ii. Change to a more flexible material for the extension tubes. iii. Change the solvent used to bond the luer locks to provide a better bond. b) Monitor i. Change in mechanical display ii. Changes in user interface software These changes improved the clecromagnetic compatibility (EMC) performance of the monitor.
{2}------------------------------------------------
Summary of non-Clinical Tests: The following outlines the testing performed, as a result of the risk analysis, to demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate device: a) Catheter
- i. Functional Bench Testing
- ii. Functional and visual testing
- iii. Pull test
- b) Monitor
- i. Electromagnetic compatibility testing
- ii. Software validation
The above test results confirmed that the modified Conclusion: device met the same specifications as the predicate device, and is therefore substantially equivalent with respect to safety and effectiveness to the predicate device.
