More Information

No
The description focuses on a master/slave robotic control system for remote navigation and does not mention any AI/ML capabilities for image processing, decision making, or other functions.

No.
The device description explicitly states that the system "provides a conduit for manual placement of therapeutic devices," indicating it is an accessory used to facilitate the placement of other therapeutic devices, rather than being therapeutic itself.

No

The device is a robotic system designed to facilitate navigation and placement of therapeutic devices in the peripheral vasculature; it does not diagnose conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "Robotic System" and includes "Robotic Catheter and Accessory Components," indicating significant hardware components beyond just software. The performance studies also detail testing of physical aspects like tensile strength, fatigue, and electrical components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "facilitate navigation to anatomical targets in the peripheral vasculature and subsequently provide a conduit for manual placement of therapeutic devices." This describes a device used in vivo (within the body) for navigation and delivery of other devices, not for testing samples in vitro (outside the body).
  • Device Description: The description details a robotic system for controlling a catheter within the vasculature, again indicating in vivo use.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory testing.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device's function is entirely focused on facilitating procedures within the body.

Device Description

The Hansen Medical Magellan Robotic System and NorthStar Robotic Catheter and Accessory Components are designed to facilitate remote navigation to anatomical targets in the peripheral vasculature. Subsequent to navigation, the system provides a conduit for manual placement of therapeutic devices. The Magellan Robotic System's operating principles are similar to those of the Sensei X Robotic Catheter System. The fundamental concept of the robotic system is based on a master/slave control system that enables and visualizes positioning of a steerable catheter tip at a desired point inside the vasculature, while enabling a physician to remain seated and away from the x-ray radiation source.

A description of the Hansen System components (Magellan Robotic System, Magellan Robotic Catheter and Sterile Accessory Components) is provided below.

Magellan Robotic System

The major components of the Magellan Robotic System are (1) Workstation, (2) Remote Catheter Manipulator (RCM) with Remote Wire Manipulator (RWM), (3) Set-Up Joint (SUJ), Rail, and Bedside Electronics Module (BEM), (4) Bedside Pendant or Controller, and the (5) Electronics Rack.

Workstation: The Workstation provides the physician with a display for the fluoroscopic image and input devices for commanding the NorthStar Robotic Catheter and commercial guidewire remotely from the patient's bedside. The input devices include a touch-screen, a pendant controller housing command buttons, and a joystick 3D controller.
Remote Catheter Manipulator (RCM): The RCM is a servo-actuator system that translates the physician's commands to insert and articulate the NorthStar Robotic Catheter.
Remote Wire Manipulator (RWM): The RWM is a servo-actuator system that translates the physician's commands to insert and roll a 0.018-0.35" diameter guidewire. The RWM is mounted on the RCM and is considered part of the RCM.
Set-up Joint (SUJ) Rail: The SUJ is an articulated arm that supports and allows for positioning of the RCM during set-up, prior to the start of a procedure. The SUJ design is based upon the Sensei X SUJ modified to support the weight of the VCCS RCM with RWM. It is mounted to a custom rail system. The rail system is a table mounted, lead screw actuated support for the SUJ.
Bedside Electronics Module (BEM): The BEM contains the motor and encoder electronics.
Bedside Controller/Pendant: The Bedside Controller/Pendant is a second pendant controller located at the bedside, and has the same input command-buttons as the Workstation Controller. The physician may enter NorthStar Robotic Catheter commands at the patient's bedside while watching the bedside fluoroscopic image display.
Electronics Rack: The Electronics rack houses the computers, video framegrabbers, and back-up power supply for the Magellan Robotic System.

NorthStar Robotic Catheter:

The NorthStar Robotic Catheter is a guiding catheter design to facilitate navigation to anatomical targets, placement of a guidewire, and manual delivery of therapeutic devices. It consists of a steerable inner Leader and a steerable outer Sheath. The NorthStar Robotic Catheter family consists of three different lengths of Leader and Sheath pairs. Both the Leader and Sheath are equipped with proximal hubs which enable them to be attached to the Magellan Robotic System for insertion, articulation and retraction.

Leader: The Leader is a tubular catheter with four pull wires articulating the distal end. The Leader is compatible with 0.018 - 0.035" guidewires The Leader has a 6F outer diameter and 3F inner diameter, and is available in three different lengths. The Leader fits inside the Sheath and is only used inside the Sheath.
Sheath: The Sheath is a tubular catheter with four pull wires articulating the distal end. The Sheath has a 9F outer diameter and 6F inner diameter. The Sheath is available in three different lengths. The Sheath fits around the Leader and may be used with or without the Leader.

Accessory Components:

The Accessory Components are sterile and disposable components that maintain the sterile field between the non-sterile RCM and the sterile Hansen Medical NorthStar Robotic Catheter as well as provide a means for rotating and inserting the guidewire and keep the catheter sliding smoothly during operation.

All tests were successfully passed.
No biocompatibility testing was performed on the Magellan Robotic System as it does not come into blood/tissue contact.

Sterilization Validation:
The NorthStar Robotic Catheter is sterilized using Ethylene Oxide (EtO) sterilization process. The NortStar Robotic Catheter Accessory Components (Kit and Caddy) are sterilized using gamma irradiation. The validated sterility assurance level (SAL) is 10^-6.
The Magellan Robotic System is supplied non-sterile.

Animal Study:
Two Good Laboratory Practices (GLP) animal studies (5 and 30-days) were performed to evaluate the efficacy and acute (and subacute) safety of peripheral artery cannulation and subsequent therapeutic device deployment when using the Magellan Robotic System.
The 5-day survival study demonstrated that the system functionality and performance met the system design requirements in vivo. This study compared remote catheterization with the Magellan Robotic System and NorthStar Catheter to manual catheterization. It showed that the Hansen System can be successfully used to navigate within the peripheral vasculature in a safe and effective manner, resulting in fewer and less severe vascular injuries compared to manual control.
The 30-day survival study confirmed that the system functionality and performance met the system design requirements in vivo. This study compared remote catheterization and treatment using the Magellan Robotic System and NorthStar Catheter to manual catheterization and treatment. It demonstrated that the Hansen System can be successfully used to navigate within the peripheral vasculature and as a conduit for therapeutic devices in a safe and effective manner, also showing fewer and less severe vascular injuries compared to manual control.

Clinical Study:
A prospective, single center multi operator, non-randomized, single arm study of 20 procedures (15 enrolled subjects) utilizing Hansen Medical Magellan Robotic System and Hansen Medical NorthStar Robotic Catheter was conducted to evaluate the safety and ease of use for navigation, angiographic assessment, and treatment in the peripheral vasculature.
Results showed that robotic navigation was used to successfully cannulate 20 of 20 target vessels. There were no device related adverse events. Selective angiography of the target vessel was completed in 20 cases. In all cases, the Magellan Robotic System was able to remotely navigate a robotically deflectable catheter (NorthStar Robotic Catheter) and guide-wire into the target vessel. In all 20 cases, the NorthStar Robotic Catheter was robotically navigated to the targeted lesion within the artery. All patients were free from access site complications at discharge (29.8 ± 6.6 hours) as evidenced by ultrasound imaging confirmation of the contralateral common femoral artery.

Intended Use:

The Magellan Robotic System, NorthStar Robotic Catheter and Accessory components are intended to be used to facilitate navigation to anatomical targets in the peripheral vasculature and subsequently provide a conduit for manual placement. of therapeutic devices.

Technological Characteristics of the Device Compared to the Predicate Device:

The Magellan Robotic System's operating principles are nearly identical to those of the Sensei X Robotic Catheter System cleared under (K102168). The fundamental concept of the system is based on a master/slave control system that enables and visualizes positioning of a steerable catheter tip at a desired point inside the vasculature, while enabling a physician to remain seated and away from the x-ray radiation source. The Magellan Robotic System has similar basic function, control mechanism, system components, communication and software architecture to those of the Sensei X Robotic Catheter System. The NorthStar Robotic Catheter interfaces with the Remote Catheter Manipulator (RCM) via the same mechanism as the existing Artisan Control Catheter cleared under (K102168). The mechanisms by which the Magellan Robotic System RCM articulates the distal ends of the NorthStar Robotic Catheter are the same as those used in the Sensei X Robotic Catheter System RCM. Similar to the Sensei X Robotic Catheter System, while using the Magellan System, the physician sits at a workstation console equipped with a pendant interface. The physician inputs motion commands to the pendant in order to control the motion of the NorthStar Robotic Catheter and guidewire. The Magellan Robotic System translates the pendant inputs into actuation of the catheter via the RCM and motion of the guidewire via the Remote Wire Manipulator (RWM). Moreover, performance testing demonstrated that the products perform in a substantially equivalent manner to the Sensei Robotic Control System. Therefore, Hansen Medical considers the Magellan Robotic System and NorthStar Robotic Catheter to be substantially equivalent to the legally marketed predicate Sensei Control Catheter System and Artisan Control Catheter Model (K102168) because it has similar technological characteristics utilizing robotic manipulation.

The Hansen Medical Magellan Robotic System and the predicate Pinnacle Destination Peripheral Guiding Sheath (cleared K080415) have the same intended use and similar indications, technological characteristics and performance. The minor differences in wording for the intended use statements of the respective products do not alter the intended patient or clinical effect, and, therefore, the Hansen System is substantially equivalent with respect to intended use. In addition, the key technological difference between the products relate to the ability to remotely control the steerable NorthStar Robotic Catheter compared to manual control for the Pinnacle Destination Sheath. However, this difference does not present any new issues of safety or effectiveness. Moreover, performance testing demonstrates that the products perform in a substantially equivalent manner.

Summary of Studies:

All necessary preclinical and clinical testing was conducted to support a determination of substantial equivalence to the predicate devices.

Bench/Preclinical Testing

Verification and validation activities were performed to ensure that the Magellan Robotic System, NorthStar Robotic Catheter and Accessory Components fulfilled system requirements and to ensure that the product design conforms to the user needs and intended uses. The testing included:

The collective results of the bench testing demonstrate that the Magellan Robotic System, NorthStar Robotic Catheter and Accessory Components meet the established specifications necessary for consistent performance for its intended use. In addition the testing demonstrates that the system does not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness when compared to the predicate devices.

Biocompatibility:

Biological evaluation was performed on NorthStar Robotic Catheter per ISO 10993-1 testing requirements and the FDA General Program Memorandum # G95-1. The NorthStar Robotic Catheter is categorized as external communicating devices in contact with circulating blood with limited contact (≤24hrs).

assay and Partial Thromboplastin time assay. All of the tests were successfully passed.

Please note that the Magellan Robotic System does not come into blood/tissue contact and therefore, no biocompatibility testing was performed.

Sterilization Validation:

The NorthStar Robotic Catheter is sterilized using Ethylene Oxide (EtO) sterilization process. The NortStar Robotic Catheter Accessory Components (Kit and Caddy) are sterilized using gamma irradiation. The validated sterility assurance level (SAL) is 10°

The Magellan Robotic System is supplied non-sterile.

Animal Study:

Two Good Laboratory Practices (GLP) animal studies (5 and 30-days) were performed to evaluate the efficacy and acute (and subacute) safety of peripheral arterv cannulation and subsequent therapeutic device deployment when using the Magellan Robotic System.

The first 5-day survival study demonstrated that the system functionality and performance, as implemented, met the system design requirements in vivo. This study was conducted in accordance with Good Laboratory Practices (GLP) Regulations (21 CFR, part 58) and compared remote catheterization with the Magellan Robotic System and NorthStar Catheter to manual catheterization. This animal study demonstrated that the Hansen System can be successfully used to navigate within the peripheral vasculature in a safe and effective manner. This study demonstrated that the use of the Hansen System resulted in fewer and less severe vascular injuries as compared to the manual control.

The second 30-day survival study conducted in accordance with Good Laboratory Practices (GLP) Regulations (21 CFR, part 58), demonstrated that the system functionality and performance, as implemented, met the system design requirements in vivo. This study compared remote catheterization and treatment using the Magellan Robotic System and NorthStar Catheter to manual catheterization and treatment.

Clinical Study

A prospective, single center multi operator, non-randomized, single arm study of 20 procedures (15 enrolled subjects) utilizing Hansen Medical Magellan Robotic System and Hansen Medical NorthStar Robotic Catheter was conducted to evaluate the safety and ease of use for navigation, angiographic assessment, and treatment in the peripheral vasculature. The study results showed that robotic navigation was used to successfully cannulate 20 of 20 target vessels. There were no device related adverse events. Selective angiography of the target vessel was completed in 20 cases. In all cases, the Magellan Robotic System was able to remotely navigate a robotically deflectable catheter (NorthStar Robotic Catheter) and guide-wire into the target vessel. In all 20 cases the NorthStar Robotic Catheter was robotically navigated to the targeted lesion with the artery. All patients were from access site complications at discharge (29.8 ± 6.6hours) as evidenced by ultrasound imaging confirmation of the contralateral common femoral artery.

Conclusion:

The results of bench testing, animal testing, clinical testing and compliance with applicable standards (section 002) provide reasonable assurance that the system has been designed and tested to assure conformance to the requirements for its indications for use.

Hansen Medical considers the Magellan Robotic System and NorthStar Robotic Catheter to be substantially equivalent to the legally marketed predicate Sensei Control Catheter System and Artisan Control Catheter Model cleared under K102168 because it has similar technological characteristics utilizing robotic manipulation. Additionally, Hansen Medical's Magellan Robotic System has the same intended use and similar indications, technological characteristics and performance to the predicate Pinnacle Destination Guiding Sheath cleared under K080415. The minor differences in wording for the intended use statements of the respective products do not alter the intended patient or clinical effect and, therefore, the Hansen Medical System is substantially equivalent to currently marketed predicate devices.
