Intended Use
The Reflexion Spiral catheter can be used for recording intracardiac signals and for cardiac stimulation during electrophysiology studies. The Reflexion Spiral catheter is to be used to map the atrial regions of the heart.
Device Story
Reflexion Spiral Variable Radius Catheter is a flexible, asymmetric, bi-directional, radiopaque loop electrophysiology catheter. Device features a polymer shaft with platinum electrodes and a ComfortGrip proximal handle. Handle contains a shaft actuator for varying sweep (90°) and curl (180°) of the distal shaft, and a loop actuator for adjusting loop diameter (15mm to 25mm). Used by physicians in clinical electrophysiology settings to record intracardiac signals and provide cardiac stimulation for mapping atrial heart regions. Output consists of electrical signals transmitted via a proximal connector to external recording/stimulation equipment. Device enables precise positioning and mapping of atrial tissue to assist in diagnosing or treating cardiac arrhythmias.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing conducted per FDA 'Electrode Recording Catheter Preliminary Guidance' (1995) and ISO 10555-1. Results demonstrate conformance to standards and reliable performance. No clinical human data provided.
Technological Characteristics
Polymer shaft with platinum electrodes; bi-directional, variable radius loop design. Proximal handle with mechanical actuators for sweep, curl, and loop diameter control. Radiopaque. Sterile, single-use. No software or electronic processing components.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients undergoing electrophysiology studies requiring intracardiac signal recording and cardiac stimulation, specifically for mapping atrial regions of the heart.
Regulatory Classification
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.

## 4. Device Description:
The St. Jude Medical (SJM) Reflexion Spiral™ Variable Radius Catheter (Reflexion Spiral catheter) is a flexible, asymmetric, bi-directional, radiopaque variable radius loop electrophysiology catheter constructed of a polymer shaft that incorporates platinum electrodes.
The Reflexion Spiral catheter has a proximal handle (ComfortGrip™) that contains: 1) A shaft actuator mechanism for varying the asymmetrical sweep (90° sweep) and curl (180° curl) of the distal portion of the shaft. 2) A loop actuator mechanism for varying the loop diameter from approximately 25mm to approximately 15mm. 3) An electrical connector fitted into the proximal end of the handle.
{1}------------------------------------------------
## 5. Indications for Use:
The Reflexion Spiral catheter can be used for recording intracardiac signals and for cardiac stimulation during electrophysiology studies. The Reflexion Spiral catheter is to be used to map the atrial regions of the heart.
## 6. Statement of how the technological characteristics of the device compare to those of the predicate or legally marketed device:
The Reflexion Spiral catheter and the predicate IBI Inquiry™ Optima™ catheter are both intended for electrogram recording and stimulation during electrophysiological studies. The different proximal handles show equivalent performance of the loop radius control and sweep/curl positioning control and does not affect the intended use or the scientific technology of the device.
## 7. Brief summary of non-clinical tests and results:
The test plan for the Reflexion Spiral catheter was based on FDA Guidance "Electrode Recording Catheter Preliminary Guidance, Draft Version," March 1995 and ISO 10555-1, Sterile Single-Use Intravascular Catheters Part 1: General Requirements. The test results indicate conformance to the standards and reliable performance when used in conformance with the device Instructions for Use. The Reflexion Spiral catheter does not raise any new issues of safety, effectiveness or performance of the device.
#### 8. Statement of Equivalence:
Through the comparison data, the equivalence evaluation, and supporting bench and animal data, SJM considers the Reflexion Spiral™ Variable Radius Catheter to be substantially equivalent to the Irvine Biomedical, Inc. Inquiry™ Optima™ Steerable Electrophysiology Catheter.
