Intended Use
The NAVISTAR™ RMT Steerable Tip Diagnostic Catheter and related accessory devices are indicated for catheter-based atrial and ventricular electrophysiological mapping in adults and children four (4) years of age and older. This catheter is only compatible with the Stereotaxis Magnetic Navigation Systems (MNS). When used with the CARTO™ RMT EP Navigation System, the NAVISTAR™ RMT Steerable Tip Diagnostic Catheter provides location information.
Device Description
The NaviStar RMT Steerable Tip Diagnostic Catheter, is a 7 Fr 4mm, magnetically deflectable diagnostic catheter used in the magnetic field for catheter-based atrial and ventricular electrophysiological mapping in adults and children four (4) years of age and older. The NAVISTAR™ RMT Steerable Tip Diagnostic Catheter is a 7 Fr 4mm, magnetically steerable diagnostic catheter. The catheter contains a location sensor, that, when used together with the CARTO RMT system, provides location information to construct a 3D electroanatomical maps of the human heart in real-time. The catheter has a high-torque shaft with a deflectable tip section containing an array of platinum irridium electrodes that can be used for stimulation and recording. The tip can be deflected in multiple planes.
More Information

No
The summary describes a diagnostic catheter used for electrophysiological mapping with a magnetic navigation system. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies. The technology described is focused on magnetic steering and location sensing for 3D mapping.

No.
The device is indicated for diagnostic mapping of the heart's electrical activity, not for treatment.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is "indicated for catheter-based atrial and ventricular electrophysiological mapping." The "Device Description" also mentions it is a "magnetically deflectable diagnostic catheter used in the magnetic field for catheter-based atrial and ventricular electrophysiological mapping." Mapping is a diagnostic process used to identify the source of electrical signals in the heart.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical catheter with a steerable tip, electrodes, and a location sensor, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.

Based on the provided information, 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. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The NAVISTAR™ RMT Steerable Tip Diagnostic Catheter is a device used inside the body (in vivo) for electrophysiological mapping of the heart. It records electrical signals and provides location information to create a 3D map. It does not analyze samples taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "catheter-based atrial and ventricular electrophysiological mapping," which is an invasive procedure performed directly on the patient.

Therefore, the function and intended use of this device fall outside the scope of an In Vitro Diagnostic.

§ 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 Ms. Thorson:

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 cnclosure) 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 adultcration.

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.
