No
The summary does not mention AI, ML, or any related concepts like image processing, training sets, or performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML devices. The device is described as a deflectable catheter for electrophysiology studies, which is a standard medical device type.

No
The device is used for temporary use in electrophysiology studies, which are diagnostic in nature, not therapeutic.

No

The device description explicitly states "EP Deflectable Catheters," which are physical hardware devices used in electrophysiology studies. The summary does not mention any software component as the primary or sole function of the 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 "temporary use in electrophysiology studies." Electrophysiology studies involve measuring electrical activity within the body, which is an in vivo (within a living organism) procedure, not an in vitro (outside of a living organism) test.
  • Device Description: The device is described as "EP Deflectable Catheters." Catheters are typically used to access internal body structures, again indicating an in vivo application.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in samples
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening based on sample analysis.

Therefore, the EP Deflectable Catheters are designed for a procedure performed within the patient's body, making them an in vivo medical device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

§ 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).
