Intended Use
The AtriClip LAA Exclusion System is indicated for the occlusion of the heart's left atrial appendage, performed under direct visualization and in conjunction with other cardiac surgical procedures. Direct visualization, in this context, requires that the surgeon is able to see the heart directly, with or without assistance from a camera, endoscope, etc., or other appropriate viewing technologies.
Device Description
The AtriClip LAA Exclusion System consists of a single use, sterile, self-closing, implantable Clip preloaded on a Single Use Clip Applier along with a selection guide. When closed, the Clip applies uniform pressure over the length of the Clip to ensure consistent, reproducible, and secure occlusion of the left atrial appendage (LAA). The clip is then deployed and is left as a permanent implant. The Clip is available in the following lengths to accommodate different sizes of LAA: 35 mm, 40 mm, 45 mm, and 50 mm. The Clip Appliers are disposable devices with a handle, shaft, suture anchors, and deployment end-effector containing the Clip.

No
The description focuses on a mechanical clip and applier for surgical LAA occlusion, with no mention of AI or ML in the device description, intended use, or performance studies.

Yes
The device is implanted to occlude the left atrial appendage, which is a therapeutic intervention aimed at preventing conditions like stroke.

No

The AtriClip LAA Exclusion System is an implantable device designed for the occlusion of the heart's left atrial appendage, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components including an implantable clip, a clip applier with a handle, shaft, suture anchors, and deployment end-effector. This indicates a hardware-based medical device, not a software-only one.

Based on the provided information, the AtriClip LAA Exclusion System is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body (in vitro).
  • AtriClip Function: The AtriClip is a surgical implant designed to physically occlude (close off) the left atrial appendage within the patient's body. It is a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it is for "occlusion of the heart's left atrial appendage, performed under direct visualization and in conjunction with other cardiac surgical procedures." This describes a surgical intervention, not a diagnostic test.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical clip and applier used for implantation, not equipment for analyzing biological samples.

Therefore, the AtriClip LAA Exclusion System is a surgical implant and delivery system, not an IVD.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Non-clinical Bench Testing Reliability Testing Usability Testing on a Cadaver Model

AtriCure has collected scientific based evidence from multiple sponsored IDE clinical studies on the use of the AtriClip LAA Exclusion System during video assisted thoracoscopic procedures of the left atrial appendage (LAA). In the IDE Stroke clinical study (G110145) patients were implanted with the AtriClip device via video assisted thoracoscopic procedures without any adverse events. At three months followup, these patients had 100% LAA exclusion.

In addition, AtriCure also conducted two IDE studies, Hybrid DEEP (G090279) and Staged DEEP (G120056), where the AtriClip devices were implanted via using video without any adverse events.

Furthermore, AtriCure performed a published literature review evaluating the use of AtriClip LAA Exclusion System devices, which provided additional evidence the device can be placed safely at the base of the appendage via a video assisted thoracoscopic procedure of the LAA.

In totality of the clinical evidence based on the multiple IDE clinical studies and published clinical literature, 129 total patients were safely implanted during video assisted thoracoscopic procedures of the left atrial appendage.

A review of the IDE clinical studies and published literature evaluated the following endpoints when the Clip was deployed via a video assisted thoracoscopic procedures of the LAA: 1.) LAA occlusion directly following Clip deployment and 2.) LAA exclusion post-operatively. The results demonstrated: 1.) 99% (128/129) of the patients had LAA occlusion directly following Clip deployment and 2.) 96% (56/58) of patients had LAA exclusion evaluated at 3-12months post-operatively.

The IDE EXCLUDE clinical study, included in the original AtriClip 510(k) premarket notification - K093679, demonstrated effectiveness of 95.7% LAA occlusion directly following Clip deployment and 98.4% LAA exclusion 3 months post-operatively.

There were Zero (0) AtriClip device related serious adverse events reported in the clinical studies and published literature.

Clinical Studies

AtriCure has collected scientific based evidence from multiple sponsored IDE clinical studies on the use of the AtriClip LAA Exclusion System during video assisted thoracoscopic procedures of the left atrial appendage (LAA). In the IDE Stroke clinical study (G110145) patients were implanted with the AtriClip device via video assisted thoracoscopic procedures without any adverse events. At three months followup, these patients had 100% LAA exclusion.

In addition, AtriCure also conducted two IDE studies, Hybrid DEEP (G090279) and Staged DEEP (G120056), where the AtriClip devices were implanted via using video without any adverse events.

Furthermore, AtriCure performed a published literature review evaluating the use of AtriClip LAA Exclusion System devices, which provided additional evidence the device can be placed safely at the base of the appendage via a video assisted thoracoscopic procedure of the LAA.

In totality of the clinical evidence based on the multiple IDE clinical studies and published clinical literature, 129 total patients were safely implanted during video assisted thoracoscopic procedures of the left atrial appendage.

A review of the IDE clinical studies and published literature evaluated the following endpoints when the Clip was deployed via a video assisted thoracoscopic procedures of the LAA: 1.) LAA occlusion directly following Clip deployment and 2.) LAA exclusion post-operatively. The results demonstrated: 1.) 99% (128/129) of the patients had LAA occlusion directly following Clip deployment and 2.) 96% (56/58) of patients had LAA exclusion evaluated at 3-12months post-operatively.

The IDE EXCLUDE clinical study, included in the original AtriClip 510(k) premarket notification - K093679, demonstrated effectiveness of 95.7% LAA occlusion directly following Clip deployment and 98.4% LAA exclusion 3 months post-operatively.

There were Zero (0) AtriClip device related serious adverse events reported in the clinical studies and published literature.

Summary

Based on the clinical performance as documented in the clinical studies and published literature, the AtriClip LAA Exclusion System was found to have a safety and effectiveness profile similar to the predicate device. Substantial equivalence was based in part on this information.

VIII. Conclusions

The AtriCure sponsored clinical studies, published literature, and bench testing data included in this submission provide evidence demonstrating the AtriClip LAA Exclusion System, as labeled per the Indication for Use, provide A.) clinically significant results and at the same time B.) do not present an unreasonable risk of illness or injury associated with the use of the device.
