Intended Use
The EnSite Multi-electrode Diagnostic Catheter used with the EnSite 3000 Electrophysiology Workstation is intended to be used in the right atrium of patients with complex arrhythmias that may be difficult to identify using conventional mapping systems alone (i.e., linear mapping catheters).
Device Description
EnSite 3000 System Components EnSite Multi-electrode Diagnostic Catheter The EnSite Multi-electrode Diagnostic Catheter (EnSite catheter) is a single use, 9 French, percutaneous catheter. The EnSite catheter is designed for use only with the EnSite 3000 electrophysiology laboratory and for deployment in the right atrium. The proximal end contains the patient cable electrical connector, an inflation port for the distal balloon/ braid multi-electrode array (MEA), luer port compatible with a 0.035" guidewire, and a push shaft to facilitate expansion and deployment of the MEA. The shaft is a coaxial design with a polyurethane outer sheath. At the distal end in addition to the MEA, there are three ring electrodes, one distal and two proximal mounted at specific locations to the MEA. The tip of the catheter is a pigtail shape to minimize trauma to the endocardium. Biocompatible materials are used for all blood contacting surfaces. EnSite 3000 electrophysiology workstation The EnSite 3000 electrophysiology workstation is a computerized storage and display system for use in electrophysiology studies of the human heart. It is designed for use in the EP laboratory with the EnSite Multielectrode Diagnostic Catheter and in conjunction with other standard equipment found in the EP laboratory. This allows for the collection , storage, and display of intracardiac electrograms. The EnSite 3000 may be used in conjunction with standard electrode mapping catheters, programmable cardiac stimulators, ECG leads and other analog inputs. The EnSite 3000 is comprised of a display workstation consisting of a Silicon Graphics Octane processor containing proprietary software and a 21" monitor and a Patient Interface Unit which accepts the signals from the patient and from other accessories and converts them to digital signal and sends them to the display workstation for processing.

No
The summary describes a hardware system (catheter and workstation) for collecting and displaying electrograms, with no mention of AI or ML for analysis or interpretation.

No

The device is described as a "Diagnostic Catheter" and an "electrophysiology workstation" intended to "map complex atrial arrhythmias" and allow for "the collection, storage, and display of intracardiac electrograms." Its purpose is to identify complex arrhythmias, not to treat them.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states "The EnSite Multi-electrode Diagnostic Catheter... is intended to be used... to identify complex arrhythmias," and the "Device Description" section refers to the catheter as a "Multi-electrode Diagnostic Catheter."

No

The device description clearly outlines hardware components including a catheter, workstation, processor, monitor, and patient interface unit, indicating it is not software-only.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Function: The EnSite Multi-electrode Diagnostic Catheter and EnSite 3000 Electrophysiology Workstation are used within the human body (specifically the right atrium) to collect and display electrical signals (electrograms) from the heart.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to help identify complex arrhythmias in vivo (within the living body) using electrical mapping, not by analyzing samples taken from the body.

The device is an in vivo diagnostic device used for electrophysiological mapping of the heart.

EnSite 3000 electrophysiology workstation

The EnSite 3000 electrophysiology workstation is a computerized storage and display system for use in electrophysiology studies of the human heart. It is designed for use in the EP laboratory with the EnSite Multielectrode Diagnostic Catheter and in conjunction with other standard equipment found in the EP laboratory. This allows for the collection , storage, and display of intracardiac electrograms. The EnSite 3000 may be used in conjunction with standard electrode mapping catheters, programmable cardiac stimulators, ECG leads and other analog inputs.

The EnSite 3000 is comprised of a display workstation consisting of a Silicon Graphics Octane processor containing proprietary software and a 21" monitor and a Patient Interface Unit which accepts the signals from the patient and from other accessories and converts them to digital signal and sends them to the display workstation for processing.

Intended use:

For use in right atrial electrophysiology procedures to assist in the diagnosis of complex arrhythmias that may be difficult to identify using conventional mapping systems alone (i.e. contact mapping catheters)

Technological Characteristics:

Unlike currently available electrode recording catheters, the EnSite catheter does not require direct contact with the endocardium for the detection of intracardiac electrograms. The EnSite 3000 connected to the EnSite catheter utilizes proprietary software algorithms to reconstruct and display right atrial endocardiograms detected by the EnSite catheters MEA.

Non-clinical performance data:

The EnSite catheter underwent a battery of in vitro tests including tensile, torsion, inflation, deflation testing. Biocompatibility was confirmed in accordance with ISO 10993.

3

The EnSite 3000 was tested and conforms to IEC 601-1 and IEC 601-2-27 international standards. Device validation testing was conducted in accordance with in house procedures.

Animal studies were utilized to show initial catheter and system safety of the catheter.

Clinical Data:

Clinical studies were conducted which demonstrate that the EnSite 3000 System is as safe and effective as EP mapping catherer systems presently marketed. The results indicate that it can map complex atrial arrhythmias.

Conclusion:

An evaluation of the predicate devices, in vitro testing, animal testing and human clinical testing shows that the EnSite 3000 and the EnSite Multielectrode Diagnostic Catheter are substantially equivalent to currently marketed programmable diagnostic computers and electrode recording catheters.
