No
The summary describes a standard electrophysiology catheter with electrodes and connectors. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any data analysis beyond basic electrical measurements. The performance studies focus on mechanical and electrical properties, not algorithmic performance.
No
Explanation: The device is described as providing "diagnostic information" and is used for electrophysiology studies, intra-cardiac ECG, and electrical stimulation. These are diagnostic procedures, not therapeutic interventions.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "The Electrode Semi-Floatation Catheter is designed to provide diagnostic information." Additionally, its uses for "Intra-cardiac ECG" are diagnostic.
No
The device description clearly describes a physical catheter with electrodes, wires, and connectors, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used outside of the body ("in vitro").
- Device Function: The Electrode Semi-Floatation Catheter is an invasive device used inside the body ("in vivo") to directly interact with the heart's electrical activity. It provides diagnostic information by recording electrical signals and performing electrical stimulation within the heart.
The intended uses clearly describe procedures performed directly on the patient's heart, not on samples taken from the patient.

§ 870.1220 Electrode recording catheter or electrode recording probe.
(a)
Identification. An electrode recording catheter or an electrode recording probe is a device used to detect an intracardiac electrocardiogram, or to detect cardiac output or left-to-right heart shunts. The device may be unipolar or multipolar for electrocardiogram detection, or may be a platinum-tipped catheter which senses the presence of a special indicator for cardiac output or left-to-right heart shunt determinations.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).

Product: Electrode Semi-Flotation Catheter.
I. Predicate Device:
The J-LLoyd Medical, Inc. Bipolar Balloon Pacing Catheter has been approved by FDA 510 (K) #K930069. The function of this device is to provide emergency, temporary pacing, and intracardiac ECG recording.
II. Description of New Device:
The Electrode Semi-Flotation Catheter is furnished in five, six and seven French sizes.
The device has an electrode mounted at the distal tip. There are one to five electrodes mounted on the shaft proximal to the tip. The shaft has bands every ten centimeters. The electrode wires are connected to wire extensions with pin connectors. These are coded with numbers for identification.
III. Intended Use of New Device:
The Electrode Semi-Flotation Catheter is designed for use as follows:
-
Temporary use in electrophysiology studies.
-
Intracardiac ECG recording.
-
Electrical Stimulation.

IV. Technological Characteristics of New Device and Predicate Device (510K #K930069)
-
The Electrode Semi-Flotation Catheter and the Predicate Catheter are basically the same, using the same materials, the same basic design and the same methods of assembly.
-
The difference is the addition of electrodes to the Predicate Device which has two electrodes. The addition of the electrodes increases the functions from electrical stimulation, and intracardiac ECG recording, but will also include electrophysiology studies.
-
The performance data such as mechanical strengths and electrical tests remain the same as with the Predicate Device.
-
The Biological, Chemical and Sterilization specifications remain the same as the Predicate Device, in that only physical difference is the addition of materials (electrodes) presently used on the Predicate Device, and the elimination of the latex balloon.
V. Safety Statement:
-
As with any invasive procedure, there are certain inherent hazards, however, these hazards have been identified in the instruction sheet under the titles of Precautions and Warnings. It is important that the physicians be aware of the basic principles involved prior to using these devices in their varied application.
-
Based on engineering testing, the J-LLoyd Medical, Inc. devices and the fact that the asic design has been in use since before May 28, 1976, by thousands of physicians, in hundreds of hospitals world wide, it is our judgement that this device presents an acceptable level of safety then properly used by a trained physician.
