Device Description
Cardima® Ablation System
More Information

No
The summary does not mention AI, ML, or any related concepts like image processing or specific performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML algorithms. The description focuses on a standard radiofrequency ablation system.

Yes
The device is intended to ablate cardiac tissue during cardiac surgery, which is a therapeutic intervention.

No
The device is described as an ablation system intended to ablate cardiac tissue, which is a treatment or surgical procedure, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description explicitly states "Cardima® Ablation System" and the intended use describes ablating cardiac tissue using radiofrequency energy, which inherently involves hardware components for energy delivery.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "ablate cardiac tissue during cardiac surgery using radiofrequency energy." This describes a surgical procedure performed directly on the patient's body, not a test performed on a sample (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside of the body.
  • Device Description: The description is of an "Ablation System," which is consistent with a surgical device.
  • Anatomical Site: The anatomical site is "cardiac tissue," indicating direct interaction with the patient's heart.
  • Care Setting: The care setting is "cardiac surgery," further reinforcing its use in a surgical environment.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device's function is to physically alter tissue within the body during surgery.

Dear Dr. Chin:

This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of January 29, 2003.

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 (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. 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.

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.
