Intended Use

Temporary Cardiac Pacing Wire is intended for use in temporary epicardial cardiac pacing or monitoring and should be removed after temporary pacing has been discontinued.

Device Description

The Temporary Cardiac Pacing Wire is a sterile single-use product. Temporary cardiac pacing wires consist of the following configurations and optional accessories:

  1. The monopolar leads consist of one insulated multifilament stainless steel conductor coated with colored polyethylene.
  2. The intracorporeal end of the wire has a section of exposed, uninsulated wire electrode which terminates with an attached stainless steel needle.
  3. The exposed, uninsulated section of the intracorporeal end of the wire is either straight or has one or more multiple pre-formed curves (pre-formed wave).
  4. The extracorporeal end of wire has a straight needle with breakaway tip attached.
  5. The wire length is 60 cm.
  6. Wires range in multiple diameters from 0 to 2-0, depending on the product code.
AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) Premarket Notification summary for a medical device called "Temporary Cardiac Pacing Wire." It describes the device, its intended use, and compares it to a predicate device. This document is a regulatory submission to the FDA, demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed device rather than proving the device meets a set of acceptance criteria through a clinical study.

Therefore, the document does not contain the information requested regarding acceptance criteria and a study proving the device meets those criteria, specifically for an AI/algorithm-based device. The device in this document is a physical medical device (cardiac pacing wire), and the "performance modification" mentioned refers to testing its compatibility with an MRI environment, not a software algorithm's performance.

To answer your request, if this were an AI/algorithm-based device, the document would need to outline the specific performance metrics (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, accuracy), the thresholds for those metrics (acceptance criteria), and details of a clinical or performance study (e.g., test set size, expert ground truth establishment, MRMC studies) to demonstrate that the algorithm met those criteria.

Based on the provided text, I cannot complete the table or answer the specific questions about acceptance criteria, study details, sample sizes, expert involvement, or ground truth establishment for an AI/algorithm. The document focuses on showing substantial equivalence of a physical device with a predicate through design and material comparisons, and non-clinical performance testing related to MRI compatibility.

Dear Joice Pappan:

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 mav, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be avare that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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. You must comply with all the Act's

{1}------------------------------------------------

requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/CombinationProducts/GuidanceRegulatoryInformation/ucm597488.html; good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97).

    1. The wire length is 60 cm.
    1. Wires range in multiple diameters from 0 to 2-0, depending on the product code.
The lead consists of:
1Item 1 –Insulated multifilament conductor coated withcolored polyethylene
2Item 2 –Uninsulated, multifilament wire (intracorporeal)electrode
3Item 3 –Optional wave pre-formed into the uninsulated,intracorporeal wire end
4Item 4 –Intracorporeal curved needle
5Item 5 –Extracorporeal straight breakaway needle

Indications for Use:

Temporary Cardiac Pacing Wire is intended for use in temporary epicardial cardiac pacing or monitoring and should be removed after temporary pacing has been discontinued.

Summarv of Technological Characteristics and Performance Testing:

Temporary Cardiac Pacing Wire is identical to the Temporary Cardiac Pacing Wire with wave (K980503) marketed device. The principle of operation and fundamental scientific technology of the modified device are equivalent to the predicate device. There are no material, construction, specification, manufacturing or sterilization process changes to the currently marketed device.

{5}------------------------------------------------

The performance modification was accomplished via testing in the MRI environment and updating the labeling per FDA guidance "Establishing Safety and compatibility of Passive implants in the Magnetic Resonance (MR) environment" dated December 11, 2014. Additionally, the change proposed in this premarket notification, modifies the indications for use statement which reinforces that the device is for short-term, temporary pacing only, as stated by the product name. The labeling (Instructions for Use) have also been modified to add clarity for the use of the device.

A comparison between the proposed and the predicate device is given in Table 1 below.

Summary of Substantial Equivalence Comparison:

Temporary Cardiac Pacing Wire is identical to the existing Temporary Cardiac Pacing Wire "with wave" (K980503) marketed device except for the following changes: (1) performance modification to test the MRI Environment, (2) modifications to the labeling (instructions for use, contraindication statements, and general updates). There are no material, construction, specification, manufacturing or sterilization process changes to the currently marketed device. The clarifications to the labeling and indications for use statement were made to add clarity for users.

Conclusion:

Based on the similarities to the predicate device identified in this submission, except for proposed modification to clarify the labeling (instructions for use), adding the MRI warning information, revision of the Indication statement and the Contraindication statement, updating the Warnings, Precautions and Interactions sections, the devices have the same fundamental technology, and the same principle of operation. There are no material, construction, specification, manufacturing or sterilization process changes to the currently marketed devices. Temporary Cardiac Pacing Wire is considered to be substantially equivalent to the predicate device (K980503).
