Intended Use

The Advisor VL Circular Mapping Catheter, Sensor Enabled is a steerable electrophysiology catheter with integrated sensors. The catheter is used for recording intracardiac signals and cardiac stimulation during diagnostic electrophysiology studies. The catheter can be used to map the atrial regions of the heart.

Device Description

Advisor VL Circular Mapping Catheter, Sensor Enabled (Advisor VL) is a variable radius, circular mapping catheter. It has an adjustable 4 French (F) distal loop size with a diameter ranging from 15mm – 25mm with models containing both ten (10) equidistant or twenty (20) paired platinum-iridium electrodes. The catheter has integrated sensors with two impedance-based navigational electrodes and two magnetic sensors located at the distal end of the shaft. The catheter is intended to be used with the EnSiteTM PrecisionTM Cardiac Mapping System.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes the 510(k) premarket notification for the "Advisor™ VL Circular Mapping Catheter, Sensor Enabled™". This device is an electrophysiology catheter used for recording intracardiac signals and cardiac stimulation during diagnostic electrophysiology studies, specifically for mapping atrial regions of the heart.

Based on the document, this is not an AI/ML medical device submission. The submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device (Advisor FL, Circular Mapping Catheter, Sensor Enabled K160335) through extensive non-clinical testing (bench and animal testing). There is no mention of an AI algorithm, a test set for AI performance, human expert readings, or any of the typical criteria associated with AI/ML device evaluations.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information regarding acceptance criteria and a study proving an AI/ML device meets those criteria, as this document does not pertain to such a device.

To directly address the specific points of your request:

  1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance: This document lists various non-clinical tests performed (e.g., Patient Leakage, Dielectric Strength, Biocompatibility, Functional Simulated Use, etc.) and states that the device "met the pre-determined acceptance criteria." It does not provide a detailed table with specific acceptance values and corresponding reported performance values for each test. This type of detailed data is typically found in the full 510(k) submission, not the summary.
  2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance: Not applicable for an AI/ML device. For the non-clinical tests, sample sizes for specific bench or animal tests are not detailed in this summary.
  3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable, as no AI model's performance on human expert-labeled data is being evaluated.
  4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set: Not applicable.
  5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance: Not applicable.
  6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable.
  7. The type of ground truth used (expert concensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc): Not applicable in the context of an AI/ML model's ground truth. Ground truth for this device would refer to the true physical/electrical properties measured during bench and animal testing.
  8. The sample size for the training set: Not applicable (no AI training involved).
  9. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable (no AI training involved).

In summary, the provided document details the regulatory clearance of a physical medical device (a cardiac catheter) based on a comparison to a predicate device and extensive non-clinical testing, not an AI/ML diagnostic or therapeutic device.

Dear Tamara Stanczak:

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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware 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/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); 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). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to https://www.fda.gov/medical-device-safety/medical-device-reportingmdr-how-report-medical-device-problems.
