Intended Use

The Advisor HD Grid Mapping Catheter, Sensor Enabled, is indicated for multiple electrode electrophysiological mapping of cardiac structures in the heart, i.e., recording or stimulation only. This catheter is intended to obtain electrograms in the atrial and ventricular regions of the heart.

Device Description

The Advisor HD Grid Mapping Catheter, Sensor Enabled, is a sterile, singleuse, irrigated, high-density mapping catheter with a 7.5F shaft and an 8F distal shaft deflectable section. It is available in a D-F bi-directional curve model that is deflected using the actuator located on the catheter handle. The catheter working length is 110 cm. The device consists of a paddle-shaped distal tip with 16 electrodes, two distal shaft ring electrodes, two magnetic sensors, polymer braided shaft, handle, fluid lumen extension with a luer, and an electrical connector. The catheter also has an introducer tool intended to compress and guide the distal paddle into, and withdraw from, the hemostasis valve of an introducer sheath. The catheter is compatible with the EnSite Velocity and EnSite Precision Cardiac Mapping Systems and other accessories, including the connecting cable and commercially available irrigation pumps.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes the St. Jude Medical Advisor HD Grid Mapping Catheter, Sensor Enabled. It mentions several types of testing conducted to demonstrate substantial equivalence to predicate devices, including bench, in vivo, and biocompatibility testing. However, the document does NOT contain a study that establishes acceptance criteria and provides specific device performance data in the format requested.

The document lists various performance characteristics that were tested (e.g., irrigation pressure, electrical resistance, magnetic resistance, and compliance to various ISO and ANSI/AAMI/IEC standards), as well as a "GLP safety study" and an "Accuracy study" as part of in vivo testing. It states that "The resulting evidence obtained from the design verification and validation testing did not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness, and demonstrates that the subject device is as safe and effective as the predicate devices."

However, it does not provide the acceptance criteria for these tests, nor does it present the reported device performance against those criteria in a quantitative manner. Therefore, I cannot complete the table or answer most of the specific questions about the study design, sample sizes, ground truth establishment, or expert involvement, as this information is not present in the provided text.

Based on the provided text, I can only state that an "Accuracy study" was performed as an in vivo test, but no details about its methodology, results, or how it proved the device met specific acceptance criteria are given.

The information regarding acceptance criteria and a study proving their fulfillment is absent from the provided FDA 510(k) clearance letter and associated indications for use and device description.

Dear Jennifer Ruether:

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 enclosure) 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 adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to 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.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies.

The catheter is compatible with the EnSite Velocity and EnSite Precision Cardiac Mapping Systems and other accessories, including the connecting cable and commercially available irrigation pumps. The Advisor HD Grid Mapping Catheter, Sensor Enabled, is similar to the predicate devices in design and performance. All catheters use multiple electrodes to facilitate electrophysiological mapping and are available in similar dimensions and curve shapes; additionally, all incorporate magnetic sensors to accommodate use with the respective compatible mapping systems. Like the PentaRay catheter, the subject device incorporates a fluid lumen for irrigation of Technological the distal tip and is indicated for use in the atria and ventricles; the catheters Characteristics differ in terms of distal tip shape, and compatible mapping systems. The Advisor HD Grid and the Advisor FL catheters share the same shaft and handle design, and are compatible with the same mapping system; due to the difference in distal tip designs, the subject device differs from the Advisor FL catheter in irrigation and indications for use. Technological differences between the subject and predicate devices in indications for use, irrigation, and system-level accuracy resulted in the same questions of safety and effectiveness. The Advisor HD Grid Mapping Catheter, Sensor Enabled, is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices based on comparisons of the device functionality, technological characteristics, and intended use. The identified differences between the technological characteristics have been evaluated through the following bench, in vivo, and biocompatibility testing: Substantial .

All thrombogenicity testing was conducted using heparin to maintain an ACT value higher than 300; therefore, Advisor HD Grid requires use of anticoagulation for both right and left side procedures, and is labeled accordingly. The resulting evidence obtained from the design verification and validation testing did not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness, and demonstrates that the subject device is as safe and effective as the predicate devices.

Substantial Equivalence and Summary of Studies

§ 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).
