The Bard LabSystem™ EP Laboratory is a computer and software driven data acquisition and analysis tool designed to facilitate the gathering, display, analysis by a physician, pace mapping and storage of cardiac electrophysiologic data. When integrated with the Biosense Webster® CARTO™ 3 system, the Bard® LabSystem™ PRO EP Recording System is designed to: a) send patient demographics to Biosense Webster® CARTO™ 3, and b) acquire (from Biosense Webster® CARTO™ 3), store and display: i) synchronized 3D mapping events, ii) stimulation pacing data, and iii) images of completed 3D electro-anatomical maps of the human heart. The 3D mapping events and images are created by the Biosense Webster® CARTO™ 3 device and stored on the Bard® LabSystem™ PRO EP Recording System for review and insertion into the final clinical report. Integration also supports bidirectional communication of stimulation pacing channel selection and information sharing between the two systems.

The V2.6 software for the LabSystem™ PRO EP Recording System is a bidirectional software interface that links the Bard LabSystem PRO EP Recording System with the Biosense-Webster CARTO 3 mapping/navigation system. The V2.6 software also incorporates the core recording system functionality of the released V2.4b software for the LabSystem PRO EP Recording System. The joint integrated solution provides a single repository for the resulting CARTO 3D electro-anatomical map and procedure information collected by LabSystem PRO EP Recording System. This interface will enhance the usability of the two systems when used in tandem. This will result in a workflow improvement, more streamlined data management, and simpler review of case details. The information will be shared via a network link using a BWI communication protocol. The V2.6 software is intended for use with the LabSystem PRO EP Recording System (K031000). The LabSystem™ PRO EP Recording System is a microprocessor based data acquisition system that is used during electrophysiology procedures to acquire ECG, intracardiac, pressure and digital data from other devices like fluoroscopic systems and RF generators. The ECG, intracardiac and pressure data are acquired by an amplifier that is connected to the patient via ECG leadwires and catheters. It does not transmit alarms nor does it have arrhythmia detection capabilities.

The Bard LabSystem™ EP Laboratory is a computer and software driven data acquisition and analysis tool designed to facilitate the gathering, display, analysis by a physician, pace mapping and storage of cardiac electrophysiologic data. When integrated with the Philips EP navigator system, the BARD® LabSystem™ PRO EP Recording System is designed to acquire, analyze, and display 3D electroanatomical maps of the human heart. The maps are constructed using intracardiac electrograms with their respective cardiac locations taken from live x-ray overlay on a patient's 3D cardiac anatomy. Maps may be displayed as electrical activation maps, voltage maps, dominant frequency maps and location maps with user defined measurement values.

Bard PTFE Coated Guide Wires are indicated for percutaneous entry of a guiding catheter into a vessel using standard percutaneous methods (Seldinger's Technique). Generally, Guide Wires which are 100cm or longer are indicated for use with vascular catheters and balloon dilatation catheters in angiographic or interventional procedures. The guide wire may be inserted through an [18g] needle, introducer, or catheter. A guide wire with an outer diameter of .018" or smaller may be used with open ended guide wires. Guide wires which are shorter than 100cm are generally indicated for non-vascular use. Guide wires with an outer diameter of .018" or smaller may be inserted into the target organ through a [22g] needle or an open-ended guide wire (60cm or shorter). Larger guide wires may be inserted through larger gauge needles or an introducer for placement of dilators and/or drainage catheters.

The Bard PTFE (Teflon®) coated guide wires, subject of this 510(k), like their predicate device counterparts, are manufactured from stainless steel wire, tin/silver solder, and PTFE (Teflon®) coating, or Benzalkonium Heparin (BH) coating applied over the PTFE (Teflon®) coating. The guide wire construction consists of a safety wire, a core wire, and a wound spring for flexibility. The features that distinguish individual wires consist of the core type (fixed or moveable), a straight or "J" tip configuration, diameters, lengths, and coating types. Each guide wire is subsequently packaged, labeled, and sterilized.
