Webster CES-500 switching system
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "passive switching unit" and the functionality described is purely electromechanical switching. There is no mention of any computational processing, data analysis, or learning algorithms.
No
The device is described as an accessory for electrogram recording and pacing during diagnostic electrophysiology studies, which is an investigative procedure rather than a treatment.
Yes
The intended use explicitly states "diagnostic electrophysiology studies", and it is described as being used in "conventional electrophysiology (EP) diagnostic procedures". While it's an accessory and a passive switching unit, its purpose is to facilitate the recording and pacing necessary for these diagnostic studies.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "passive switching unit" and describes physical components like "standard pin connectors" and "a simple switch for each electrode," indicating it is a hardware device.
Based on the provided information, the Cardima EP SELECT Switchbox is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for "selective connection of multi-electrode catheters for electrogram recording and pacing during diagnostic electrophysiology studies." This describes a device used in vivo (within the living body) to interact with and measure electrical signals from the heart.
- Device Description: The description reinforces this by stating it's a "passive switching unit used in conventional electrophysiology (EP) diagnostic procedures" and is designed to accept electrodes for "intracardiac electrodes."
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) outside of the body to provide information about a person's health. The Cardima EP SELECT Switchbox does not process or analyze biological specimens.
Therefore, the Cardima EP SELECT Switchbox is an in vivo medical device, specifically an accessory used in electrophysiology procedures.

Device Description
The Cardima EP SELECT Switchbox is a passive switching unit used in conventional electrophysiology (EP) diagnostic procedures. It is designed to provide a convenient means by which the user can record or pace from multiple unipolar or bipolar intracardiac electrodes. The device is designed to be placed on a horizontal surface or at the patient's side. It is designed to accept up to eight electrodes using standard pin connectors typically found in the EP lab. Switching between record or pace modes is accomplished by a simple switch for each electrode.

Summary of Performance Studies
Safety and effectiveness were established through a "Declaration of Conformity", in part, with recognized consensus standards using International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) electromechanical standard IEC-60601-1, Medical Electrical Equipment - Part 1: General Requirements for Safety. The results show that the switchbox meets conformance with the standard and is thus safe and effective for use.

§ 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).

Cardima EP SELECT Switchbox
Owner:
Cardima, Inc. 47266 Benicia Street Fremont. CA 94538-7330 Contact: Jack P. Douglas, Ph.D. Establishment Registration Number: 9007594
Classification Name:
Electrode Recording Catheter (21 CFR 870.1220)
Device Classification:
Class II (21 CFR 870.1220) Panel: Circulatory System Devices Panel, DCRND
Intended Use and Product Description:
The Cardima EP SELECT Switchbox is a passive switching unit used in conventional electrophysiology (EP) diagnostic procedures. It is designed to provide a convenient means by which the user can record or pace from multiple unipolar or bipolar intracardiac electrodes. The device is designed to be placed on a horizontal surface or at the patient's side. It is designed to accept up to eight electrodes using standard pin connectors typically found in the EP lab. Switching between record or pace modes is accomplished by a simple switch for each electrode.
Sterilization, Packaging and Pyrogenicity:
The EP SELECT is individually packaged non-sterile in plastic wrap and cardboard box.
Substantial Equivalence:
The EP SELECT is a modified version of other conventional accessory switchboxes found in EP mapping systems. Establishment of equivalence was based on similarities of labeling, design, and functionality with the Webster CES-500 switching system.
Summarv of Safety and Effectiveness:
Safety and effectiveness were established through a "Declaration of Conformity", in part, with recognized consensus standards using International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) electromechanical standard IEC-60601-1, Medical Electrical Equipment - Part 1: General Requirements for Safety. The results show that the switchbox meets conformance with the standard and is thus safe and effective for use.
