Intended Use
The Left Atrial Pressure Monitoring Catheters are intended to be used solely in conjunction with a standard hemodynamic pressure monitoring system to obtain continuous central vascular pressures via the left atrium during and/or after cardiac surgery.
Device Description
The Edwards Lifesciences Left Atrial Pressure Monitoring Catheters consist of a radiopaque catheter bonded to a 3-way stopcock. Each catheter is marked at 1, 2, 3, and 4 centimeters for reference and is fitted over a pencil point stainless steel stylet. The proximal end of the stylet terminates in a male luer lock hub which is engaged by the proximal female port of the stopcock. Each catheter is provided with a moveable suture anchor. The devices are provided sterile, they are non-pyrogenic and they are intended for single use only.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical components and basic functional testing of a catheter for pressure monitoring, with no mention of AI or ML.

No.
The device is used to monitor central vascular pressures, which is a diagnostic function, not a therapeutic one. It does not treat or cure a condition.

Yes

The device is used to obtain continuous central vascular pressures via the left atrium, which provides information about the patient's physiological state. This information is used by healthcare professionals to monitor and manage the patient during and/or after cardiac surgery, thus aiding in diagnosis or guiding a treatment plan.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components (catheter, stopcock, stylet, suture anchor) and performance studies focus on physical properties and biocompatibility, indicating it is a 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 to "obtain continuous central vascular pressures via the left atrium during and/or after cardiac surgery." This describes a device used in vivo (within the body) for monitoring physiological parameters.
  • Device Description: The description details a catheter, stopcock, stylet, and suture anchor, all components of a device designed for insertion into the body.
  • Lack of In Vitro Activity: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, tissue, etc.) outside of the body. IVDs are specifically designed for testing these types of samples in vitro.

Therefore, this device falls under the category of an in vivo medical device, not an IVD.

Device Description:

The Edwards Lifesciences Left Atrial Pressure Monitoring Catheters consist of a radiopaque catheter bonded to a 3-way stopcock. Each catheter is marked at 1, 2, 3, and 4 centimeters for reference and is fitted over a pencil point stainless steel stylet. The proximal end of the stylet terminates in a male luer lock hub which is engaged by the proximal female port of the stopcock. Each catheter is provided with a moveable suture anchor. The devices are provided sterile, they are non-pyrogenic and they are intended for single use only.

Intended Use:

The Left Atrial Pressure Monitoring Catheters are intended to be used solely in conjunction with a standard hemodynamic pressure monitoring system to obtain continuous central vascular pressures via the left atrium during and/or after cardiac surgery.

Comparative Analysis:

lt has been demonstrated that the Left Atrial Pressure Monitoring Catheter is comparable to the predicate device in intended use and other labeling, fundamental scientific technology, material types, principles of operation and functional performance evaluations. The stopcock material change has been fully assessed within the Edwards Risk Management and Design Controls systems. All necessary verification steps met pre-determined acceptance criteria. No new issues of safety or efficacy have been raised and the performance data demonstrate equivalence.

Functional/Safety Testing

The functional data indicate that the Left Atrial Pressure Monitoring Catheter performs in a substantially equivalent manner when compared with the predicate device. The following functional tests were performed. All data met pre-established acceptance criteria.

  • Biocompatibility Per ISO 10993 .
