Intended Use
The EnSite™ X EP System is a suggested diagnostic tool in patients for whom electrophysiology studies have been indicated. The EnSite™ X EP System provides information about the electrical activity of the heart and displays catheter location during conventional electrophysiological (EP) procedures. EnSite™ X EP System Contact Force Software License: When used with the TactiSys™ Quartz Equipment, the EnSite™ X EP System Contact Force Module is intended to provide visualization of force information from compatible catheters. EnSite™ X EP System Surface Electrode Kit: The EnSite™ X EP Surface Electrode Kit is indicated for use with the EnSite™ X EP System in accordance with the EnSite™ X EP System indications for use.
Device Description
The EnSite™ X EP System is a catheter navigation and mapping system. A catheter navigation and mapping system is capable of displaying the 3-dimensional (3-D) position of conventional and Sensor Enabled™ (SE) electrophysiology catheters, as well as displaying cardiac electrical activity as waveform traces and as three-dimensional (3D) isopotential and isochronal maps of the cardiac chamber. The contoured surfaces of the 3D maps are based on the anatomy of the patient's own cardiac chamber. The system creates a model by collecting and labeling the anatomic locations within the chamber. A surface is created by moving a selected catheter to locations within a cardiac structure. As the catheter moves, points are collected at and between all electrodes on the catheter. A surface is wrapped around the outermost points.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a catheter navigation and mapping system that creates 3D models based on collected anatomical points. There is no mention of AI or ML algorithms being used for analysis, interpretation, or decision-making. The testing described focuses on software verification and performance testing of updated features, not on the evaluation of AI/ML model performance.

No
The device is described as a "suggested diagnostic tool" and a "catheter navigation and mapping system" that provides information about the heart's electrical activity and catheter location. Its intended use is for diagnosis and visualization, not for treating a condition.

Yes

The device is explicitly stated as a "suggested diagnostic tool" and provides "information about the electrical activity of the heart," which are functions consistent with a diagnostic device.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "catheter navigation and mapping system" and describes the use of catheters to collect anatomical locations and electrical activity. This indicates the system includes hardware components beyond just software.

Based on the provided information, the EnSite™ X EP System is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device. Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the system is a "suggested diagnostic tool in patients for whom electrophysiology studies have been indicated." It provides information about the electrical activity of the heart and displays catheter location during conventional electrophysiological (EP) procedures. This indicates it's used directly on the patient during a medical procedure, not for testing samples in vitro (outside the body).
  • Device Description: The description details a "catheter navigation and mapping system" that displays the position of catheters and cardiac electrical activity. This is consistent with a system used for real-time guidance and mapping within the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, tissue, etc.) or performing tests on these samples outside the body, which are hallmarks of IVD devices.

The system is used in vivo (within the living body) to assist in electrophysiology procedures, making it a medical device, but not an IVD.

Dear Alexandra Agre:

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.

| Product Code | DQK |
| Predicate Device | EnSite™ X EP System (K213364) |
| Device Description | The EnSite™ X EP System is a catheter navigation and mapping system. A
catheter navigation and mapping system is capable of displaying the 3-
dimensional (3-D) position of conventional and Sensor Enabled™ (SE)
electrophysiology catheters, as well as displaying cardiac electrical activity as
waveform traces and as three-dimensional (3D) isopotential and isochronal
maps of the cardiac chamber.
The contoured surfaces of the 3D maps are based on the anatomy of the
patient's own cardiac chamber. The system creates a model by collecting and
labeling the anatomic locations within the chamber. A surface is created by
moving a selected catheter to locations within a cardiac structure. As the
catheter moves, points are collected at and between all electrodes on the
catheter. A surface is wrapped around the outermost points. |
