More Information

No
The summary describes a standard electrophysiology catheter for recording and stimulation, with no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or specific sections for AI/ML mentions or performance studies related to AI/ML.

No
The device is used for electrogram recording and cardiac stimulation during diagnostic electrophysiologic studies, which is for diagnosis, not therapy.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the catheters are "used for electrogram recording and cardiac stimulation during diagnostic electrophysiologic studies." This directly indicates its role in diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "multiple-electrode electrophysiology recording catheter and its connecting cable," which are physical hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "electrogram recording and cardiac stimulation during diagnostic electrophysiologic studies." This involves interacting directly with the patient's body (in vivo) to record electrical signals and stimulate the heart.
  • Device Description: The description details a catheter system designed for insertion into the body.
  • Anatomical Site: The specified anatomical sites are within the patient's heart.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device operates in vivo (within the body).

Device Description

The Irvine Biomedical, Inc. Luma-Cath™ Steerable Electrophysiology Catheter System is a multiple-electrode electrophysiology recording catheter and its connecting cable. The diameter of the catheter is between 6 and 8 French. The diameter of the electrodes is between 6 and 8 French. There is a lumen with nominal internal diameter of 0.036 inch.

The electrophysiology catheters are commonly placed at the high right ventricular apex, and His bundle. The Luma-Cath™ Steerable Electrophysiology Catheters are used for electrogram recording and cardiac stimulation during diagnostic electrophysiologic studies.

The components of the Luma-Cath™ Steerable Electrophysiology Catheter System are all biocompatible and have all been tested for use in the body. Specifically, the patient contact materials are the same as the predicate devices and have been approved by the FDA. The sterilized, finished Luma-Cath™ Steerable Electrophysiology Catheter has passed the performance tests. Its manufacturing process will follow the Good Manufacturing Practice with quality assurance and validated sterilization process. Therefore, we believe the Luma-Cath™ Steerable Electrophysiology Catheter on this submission to be safe and effective.

The accessory cables used to connect the Luma-Cath™ Steerable Electrophysiology Catheters to a recorder are conventional and are cleared in the 510(k) K961924, which comply with Section 12A of the Underwriters Laboratories UL 544 Standard for Safety.

§ 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).

Dear Mr. Tu:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we 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). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. 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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance to 895. with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Requlation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Druq Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions.
