No
The description focuses on the mechanical design and function of the catheter for recording and stimulating electrical activity, with interpretation performed by trained physicians. There is no mention of automated analysis or algorithms that would suggest AI/ML.
No.
The device is used for recording and stimulation for diagnostic purposes (mapping electrical activity) to diagnose arrhythmias, not to treat them.
Yes
The device's intended use is for "mapping of the cardiac structures of the heart, i.e. recording and stimulation only," and it is designed to "acquire, analyze and display electrical activity in the human heart." The description further states that "Trained physicians interpret the electrograms in diagnosing cardiac arrhythmias," directly linking its function to diagnosis.
No
The device description clearly details a physical catheter with mechanical components (tip, handle, deflecting mechanisms, puller wire, cam assembly) designed to be inserted into the heart. While it interacts with electrophysiological equipment for data acquisition and display, the core device itself is a hardware component.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
- Device Function: The description clearly states that this catheter is used for "electrophysiological mapping of the cardiac structures of the heart, i.e. recording and stimulation only." It acquires and transmits electrical signals within the body.
- No Sample Analysis: There is no mention of analyzing samples taken from the patient. The device interacts directly with the heart's electrical activity.
Therefore, the LASSO 2515 Variable Circular Mapping catheter is an in vivo diagnostic and therapeutic device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Device Description
The Variable LASSOTM 2515 electrophysiologic mapping catheter now incorporates a tip with a variable radius mechanism that allows selection of radii in a range from 15-25 mm. The LASSO predicate device cleared in K002333 is marketed with fixed radii of 10, 15, 20 and 25 mm. The subject device will allow the user to select a continuum of radii from 10- 25 mm. To facilitate user selection of this range of radii, design changes were required in the handle of the catheter. The Variable Lasso handle mechanism now has two independently operating deflecting mechanisms that control tip deflection and circular spine expansion and contraction. Tip deflection is controlled with a thumbknob attached to the distal end of a piston mechanism enclosed in the handle barrel. The spine contraction and expansion mechanism is also controlled by the movement of a puller wire attached to a cam assembly mechanism in the catheter handle that when rotated either contracts or expands the distal loop in a diameter range from 15 to 25 mm.

Overview
The LASSO 2515 Variable mapping catheter when used in conjunction with electrophysiological pacing and recording equipment is designed to acquire, analyze and display electrical activity in the human heart. In particular the device is targeted for use in the atrial chambers of the heart and is particularly well-suited for placement in or near the pulmonary veins in the left atrium. The catheter transmits electrical pulses from the pacing equipment and intracardiac electrical signals to the recording equipment for display as electrograms (ECG traces). Trained physicians interpret the electrograms in diagnosing cardiac arrhythmias.
Design
The Variable LASSO™ 2515 electrophysiologic mapping catheter now incorporates a tip with a variable radius mechanism that allows selection of radii in a range from 15-25 mm. The LASSO predicate device cleared in K002333 is marketed with fixed radii of 10, 15, 20 and 25 mm. The subject device will allow the user to select a continuum of radii from 10- 25 mm. To facilitate user selection of this range of radii, design changes were

required in the handle of the catheter. The Variable Lasso handle mechanism now has two independently operating deflecting mechanisms that control tip deflection and circular spine expansion and contraction. Tip deflection is controlled with a thumbknob attached to the distal end of a piston mechanism enclosed in the handle barrel. The spine contraction and expansion mechanism is also controlled by the movement of a puller wire attached to a cam assembly mechanism in the catheter handle that when rotated either contracts or expands the distal loop in a diameter range from 15 to 25 mm.
Testing
Various non - clinical bench tests were conducted to verify conformance of Variable Lasso catheter to design and performance specifications. Mechanical, dimensional, and reliability tests were performed and all requirements were met prior to submission of the 510k. No new questions of safety and effectiveness were raised as a result of these tests.
Biocompatibility and sterilization validation testing were not repeated since patient contact materials identical to the predicate device are used and since the described design changes do not affect the ability to sterilize the product.
Indications and Contraindications for Use
The intended use of this device is identical to the predicate Lasso device, namely:
The catheter is indicated for multiple electrode electrophysiological mapping of the cardiac structures of the heart, i.e. recording and stimulation only. The LASSO 2515 Variable Circular Mapping catheter is designed to obtain electrograms in the atrial regions of the heart.
Contraindications - No new contraindications have been introduced as a result of implementing the design changes necessary to operate a Variable Lasso catheter.
Packaging and Shelf Life
The catheter is packaged in a thermoformed tray and sealed in a nylon/Tyvek breather pouch. The pouch is placed in a preprinted unit box, labeled, and with other units, is placed in an outer shipping box prior to sterilization. Testing has been conducted to establish the expiration date of the product which is printed on the pouch and unit box labels as a "Use By" date.
Risks
An additional risk to patient safety involves failure of the handle rotation mechanism and associated components which may require the catheter to be replaced with another catheter. This is a standard practice for any catheter when one or more performance features of the catheter are compromised and thus this is not viewed as a new risk but

instead an additional cause for the risk. All risks have been mitigated by appropriate means.
Summary of Substantial Equivalence
The design differences between the Variable Lasso 2515 and Lasso predicate device do not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness. The devices use the same fundamental technology, energy source, patient contact materials, and have the same the intended use as the predicate device. Finally, verification testing has raised no new questions of safety or effectiveness.
