Device Description
The SyncVision System (System) is displayed on a monitor that is situated next to the native xray, IVUS and FFR/iFR imaging and displayed value streams either in the cath lab or in the control room. The System provides a means to view the angiographic, IVUS, and FFR/IFR values on a single display and automates the manual registration processes performed by the physician. The objective of the SyncVision System is to optimize and facilitate trans-catheter cardiovascular interventions by means of automated on-line image processing. The current focus of the SyncVision System is on trans-catheter diagnostic and therapeutic interventions performed on the heart and the blood vessels directly connected to it. The SyncVision System's core component is an image acquisition and processing workstation situated in the coronary catheterization control room. The System also includes additional components such as a procedure room joystick, control room monitor, keyboard and mouse, medical grade isolation transformer along with site-specific cables and video equipment. Cables also connect the workstation to an existing output monitor (not supplied with the System) situated in the procedure room and provide the user in the procedure room with the visual output of the System side-by-side to the existing displays. The SyncVision System intends to capture the fluoroscopic image stream on line and perform the following functions for the purpose of assisting the interventional cardiologist in visualizing and quantitating the information resulting from images produced by the existing imaging modalities: During lesion evaluation: Angiogram selection, quantitative coronary measurements (lesion diameters, length, and stenosis percentage), vessel region enhancement and vessel region stabilization are performed instantly and on line. During device positioning, deployment and post-deployment: An on-line image stream, that is enhanced and stabilized, is displayed side-by-side with the existing fluoroscopic image stream. Import and display of IVUS images, leading to a joint display of images acquired by X-Ray and IVUS images corresponding to same selected luminal locations or segments (also known as IVUS Co-registration). Import and display of Physiological values, leading to a joint display of images acquired by X-Ray and Physiological values corresponding to same selected luminal locations or segments (also known as Physiological Co-registration).
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes automated image processing and co-registration but does not mention AI, ML, or related terms like neural networks or deep learning. The performance studies focus on software verification and validation against standards, not on evaluating AI/ML model performance.

No
The device is an image acquisition and processing system designed to provide quantitative information and enhance visualization for diagnostic purposes during cardiovascular interventions. It does not exert any direct therapeutic action on the patient.

Yes

The device provides "quantitative information regarding the calculated dimensions of arterial segments" and performs "quantitative coronary measurements (lesion diameters, length, and stenosis percentage)," which are diagnostic functions.

No

The device description explicitly states that the System includes hardware components such as a workstation, joystick, monitor, keyboard, mouse, isolation transformer, and cables.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Sync Vision System's Function: The Sync Vision System processes and displays medical images (angiography, IVUS) and physiological data (FFR/iFR) acquired in vivo (within the living body). It does not analyze biological specimens.
  • Intended Use: The intended use focuses on image acquisition, processing, visualization enhancement, and co-registration of in vivo imaging and physiological data to assist in trans-catheter cardiovascular interventions. This is distinct from the analysis of in vitro samples.
  • Device Description: The description details a system that integrates and processes data from existing imaging modalities and pressure wires used during a procedure, not a system for analyzing biological samples.

Therefore, the Sync Vision System falls under the category of medical imaging and data processing systems used during and after medical procedures, not IVD devices.

  • Import and display of Physiological values, leading to a joint display of images acquired by X-Ray and Physiological values corresponding to same selected luminal locations or segments (also known as Physiological Co-registration).

The Co-Registration is an automation of a manual workflow process used by interventional cardiologists today. The manual procedure in the cath lab for utilizing x-ray and IVUS image streams calls for referencing the native x-ray and IVUS image streams of the patient's vasculature separately on different displays. This configuration requires the cardiologist to estimate an identical location on the patient's vasculature on the two native image streams (xray and IVUS) on two separate displays. The SyncVision System automates this process by providing an option to display an identical anatomical location on both the x-ray and IVUS image streams automatically on adjacent windows on the same display.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION:

The current standard procedure in the catheterization laboratory (cath lab) for utilizing x-ray and IVUS image streams calls for referencing the native x-ray, IVUS and FFR/iFR imaging and displayed value streams of the patient's vasculature separately on different displays or monitor. This configuration requires the physician, usually an interventional cardiologist, to estimate an identical location on the patient's vasculature location on both the x-ray, IVUS image streams, and FFR/iFR displayed value streams visually on adjacent windows on the same display.

The SyncVision System (System) is displayed on a monitor that is situated next to the native xray, IVUS and FFR/iFR imaging and displayed value streams either in the cath lab or in the control room. The System provides a means to view the angiographic, IVUS, and FFR/IFR values on a single display and automates the manual registration processes performed by the physician.

The objective of the SyncVision System is to optimize and facilitate trans-catheter cardiovascular interventions by means of automated on-line image processing. The current focus of the SyncVision System is on trans-catheter diagnostic and therapeutic interventions performed on the heart and the blood vessels directly connected to it.

The SyncVision System's core component is an image acquisition and processing workstation situated in the coronary catheterization control room. The System also includes additional components such as a procedure room joystick, control room monitor, keyboard and mouse, medical grade isolation transformer along with site-specific cables and video equipment. Cables also connect the workstation to an existing output monitor (not supplied with the System) situated in the procedure room and provide the user in the procedure room with the visual output of the System side-by-side to the existing displays.

The SyncVision System intends to capture the fluoroscopic image stream on line and perform the following functions for the purpose of assisting the interventional cardiologist in visualizing and quantitating the information resulting from images produced by the existing imaging modalities:

  • During lesion evaluation: Angiogram selection, quantitative coronary measurements (lesion diameters, length, and stenosis percentage), vessel region enhancement and vessel region stabilization are performed instantly and on line.
  • During device positioning, deployment and post-deployment: An on-line image stream, that is enhanced and stabilized, is displayed side-by-side with the existing fluoroscopic image stream.
  • . Import and display of IVUS images, leading to a joint display of images acquired by X-Ray and IVUS images corresponding to same selected luminal locations or segments (also known as IVUS Co-registration).
  • Import and display of Physiological values, leading to a joint display of images acquired by X-Ray and Physiological values corresponding to same selected luminal locations or segments (also known as Physiological Co-registration).

The Co-Registration is an automation of a manual workflow process used by interventional cardiologists today. The manual procedure in the cath lab for utilizing x-ray and IVUS image

This configuration requires the cardiologist to estimate an identical location on the patient's vasculature on the two native image streams (xray and IVUS) on two separate displays. The SyncVision System automates this process by providing an option to display an identical anatomical location on both the x-ray and IVUS image streams automatically on adjacent windows on the same display.

INDICATIONS FOR USE:

The SyncVision System is an image acquisition and processing system. It is indicated for use as follows:

  • To provide quantitative information regarding the calculated dimensions of arterial segments.
  • To enhance visualization of the stent deployment region.
  • To be used in-procedure in the catheterization lab and off-line for post-procedural analysis.
  • To obtain a co-registration of an angiographic x-ray image and IVUS images.
  • To obtain a co-registration of an angiographic x-ray image and intravascular blood pressure values.

The primary modifications are to software of the SyncVision Software to enhance the Physiology Co-Registration capability, which correlates between physiological values obtained from Volcano's pressure wire pullback (both iFR and FFR calculations) and their respective locations on a selected angiographic image. There are also administrative, infrastructure, and service modifications. The primary modifications of the new device compared to the predicate device are provided in the Modification Comparison table below.

SUMMARY OF NON-CLINICAL PERFORMANCE DATA:

Non-clinical performance testing has been performed on the SyncVision System software and demonstrates compliance with the following International and FDA-recognized consensus standards and FDA guidance documents:

  • . IEC 62304 Medical device software – Software life cycle processes (Edition 1.0, 2006). FDA/CDRH recognition number 13-32.
    Applicable testing was performed as required by the Quality System to evaluate the modifications to the SyncVision System software. The following tests were conducted:

  • . Software Verification

    • . Unit, Integration, and System Level/General Verification Software Testing
    • . QCA Verification
    • IVUS co-Registration Verification .
    • . FM Co-Registration Verification
  • . Software Validation

    • . FM Co-Registration Visual Validation
  • . Usability Validation

    • Simulated Use, Design & Usability/Human Factors Engineering Validation Test

The test results demonstrated passing results in all cases when compared to acceptance criteria defined in the respective test plans and protocols.

Sterilization testing was not required as there are no sterile components or accessories for the modified SyncVision System which consists of hardware and software.

Biocompatibility is not applicable to this submission as there are no materials in the modified SyncVision System that come into direct or indirect contact with the patient. Contact with the user involves computer hardware accessories only, i.e., keyboard, mouse.

Electromagnetic compatibility and electrical safety testing was not required for the software changes that are the subject of this Premarket Notification. There were no design changes to the hardware, cables or power supply as a result of the proposed software changes. Therefore it was determined that packaging validation, electrical safety, electromagnetic compatibility, and acoustic noise level testing were not required.

SUMMARY OF CLINICAL PERFORMANCE DATA:

13

The SyncVision System did not require clinical data since substantial equivalence to the currently marketed predicate device was demonstrated with the following attributes:

  • Indication for use;
  • Technological characteristics;
  • Non-clinical performance testing; and
  • Safety and effectiveness.

These attributes demonstrated that the clinical performance of the modified device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

CONCLUSION:

Completion of these tests and the differences between the new SyncVision System and the predicate device do not raise any new questions regarding safety or effectiveness. Based on the information provided in this 510(k) submission, the SyncVision System is considered substantially equivalent to the currently marketed predicate device.
