More Information

No
The summary describes standard electrophysiology catheters used for mapping cardiac arrhythmias and does not mention any AI or ML capabilities.

No
The device is used for evaluation and mapping of cardiac arrhythmias, which is a diagnostic purpose, not a therapeutic one.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states the device "can be used in the evaluation of a variety of cardiac arrhythmias." Evaluation of medical conditions is a diagnostic activity. Additionally, the "Summary of Performance Studies" mentions "electrophysiology diagnostic catheters."

No

The device description explicitly states it is an electrophysiology catheter, which is a physical hardware device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "evaluation of a variety of cardiac arrhythmias from endocardial and intravascular sites." This describes a procedure performed within the body (in vivo) to assess the electrical activity of the heart.
  • Device Description: The description of "electrophysiology catheters" used for "electrophysiological mapping" further confirms its use in an in vivo procedure.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside the body (in vitro) to provide information about a physiological state, health, or disease.

IVD devices are specifically designed to be used on specimens taken from the human body. This device is used directly within the body.

§ 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).

Dear Mr. Taufen:

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. 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 such 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.
