No
The summary describes a mapping catheter that records electrograms and provides location information. There is no mention of AI/ML being used for data analysis, interpretation, or any other function. The focus is on the hardware and its ability to acquire data.
No.
The device is indicated for "electrophysiological mapping of cardiac structures in the heart, i.e., recording or simulation only," which describes a diagnostic rather than therapeutic function.
Yes
The device is described as an "electrophysiological mapping of cardiac structures" that obtains "electrograms in the atrial and ventricular regions of the heart," which are diagnostic procedures to identify and characterize electrical activity issues in the heart. The "recording" of such information is critical for diagnosis.
No
The device description clearly details a physical catheter with electrodes, a magnetic location sensor, and an irrigation lumen, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body.
- Device Function: The OPTRELL™ Mapping Catheter is an invasive device that is inserted into the heart to record electrical signals (electrograms) and provide location information. It is used for electrophysiological mapping within the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "multiple electrophysiological mapping of cardiac structures in the heart, i.e., recording or simulation only." This is an in vivo (within the living organism) procedure, not an in vitro (in glass/outside the body) test.
Therefore, the OPTRELL™ Mapping Catheter is a medical device used for in vivo procedures, not an IVD.

Device Description
The OPTRELL™ Mapping Catheter with TRUEref™ Technology has been designed to facilitate electrophysiological mapping of the heart with the CARTO™ 3 System. The OPTRELL™ Mapping Catheter with TRUEref™ Technology is deployed in the heart through an 8.5 F guiding sheath. This bi-directional deflectable catheter includes six (6) parallel 2 Fr spines that are joined to form three (3) loops on the deflectable tip. Each spine has six (6) platinum electrodes that are used for stimulating and recording. The electrodes form a 6 by 6 (6x6) grid. A magnetic location sensor embedded in the deflectable tip transmits location information to the CARTO™ 3 EP Navigation System. Below the spines on the deflectable tip are three (3) electrodes that allow visualization of the tip on the CARTO™ 3 System. The TRUEref™ Electrode, which is embedded in the distal end of the irrigation lumen, can be used as an internal close unipolar reference electrode within the heart chamber. Rotating the catheter's Rocker Lever clockwise or counterclockwise deflects the tip; rotating the Rocker Lever to the neutral position straightens the tip. The catheter includes an irrigation lumen for connection to a source of continuous drip anticoagulant fluid. Lastly, the proposed catheter is offered in the same deflectable curve offerings as the predicate.
The OPTRELL™ Mapping Catheter with TRUEref™ Technology design uses the same technology, has the same intended use, functions, materials, and method of operation as the predicate OPTRELL™ Mapping Catheter with TRUEref™ Technology. Instead of eight (8) platinum electrodes on each spine, the proposed OPTRELL™ Mapping Catheter with TRUEref™ Technology has six (6) electrodes on each spine, forming a 6 by 6 paddle-shaped tip containing thirty-six (36) electrodes arranged across six (6) spines. Like the predicate, the proposed OPTRELL™ also includes a close uni-polar reference electrode located at the confluence of the spines. Otherwise, there are no special technical aspects of the ability of this catheter to detect electrical signals from heart endocardium and transmit this information to the CARTO® 3 EP Navigation System and/or recording equipment for display, analysis, and interpretation in detection of various heart arrhythmias. The difference in paddle size and number of electrodes between the proposed OPTRELL™ Mapping Catheter with TRUEref™ Technology and the predicate OPTRELL™ Mapping Catheter with TRUEref™ Technology have been evaluated through bench and animal testing. Results from the bench and animal data demonstrated that the proposed device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device and did not result in new questions with regards to safety and effectiveness of the device.
