Intended Use
The Reprocessed Sealed Electrophysiology Diagnostic Catheters, are intended for temporary use during electrophysiology studies for intracardiac sensing, recording, stimulation and temporary pacing during the evaluation of cardiac arrhythmias; and for electrophysiologic mapping of cardiac structures during these evaluations.
Device Description
The device consists of a reprocessed catheter that has a high-torque shaft with a handle at the proximal end, and may or may not be steerable. These catheters have an outer diameter of 4F to 7F, a length ranging from 65 to 120 cm, with 2-20 platinum, radiopaque electrodes along the tip shaft and a variety of inter-electrode spacings and curve styles at the tip. The tip generally is deflectable. Specific cables, as recommended by the original manufacturer, connect to the handle and interface between the catheter and an external stimulator and/or an electrophysiologic recorder. It should be noted that this submission pertains to the catheter only. It does not include any other components in a system such as, connector cables, external stimulators, or electrophysiologic recorders.

No
The description focuses on the physical characteristics and function of a reprocessed catheter, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" field is explicitly marked as "Not Found".

No.
The intended use explicitly states "intracardiac sensing, recording, stimulation and temporary pacing," and "electrophysiologic mapping," which are diagnostic procedures, not therapeutic ones.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the catheters are intended for "electrophysiology Diagnostic Catheters" and for "intracardiac sensing, recording, stimulation and temporary pacing during the evaluation of cardiac arrhythmias; and for electrophysiologic mapping of cardiac structures during these evaluations," all of which are diagnostic activities.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical catheter with a shaft, handle, electrodes, and connections, indicating it is a hardware device.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for "intracardiac sensing, recording, stimulation and temporary pacing during the evaluation of cardiac arrhythmias; and for electrophysiologic mapping of cardiac structures during these evaluations." This involves direct interaction with the patient's body (in vivo) for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes.
  • Device Description: The description details a catheter designed to be inserted into the heart. This is a medical device used within the body, not a device used to test samples taken from the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or performing tests on these samples outside of the body.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of diseases or conditions. This device does not fit that description.
