Intended Use

The Celerity System is indicated for the positioning of Peripherally Inserted Central Catheters (PICC) in adult patients. It provides real-time catheter tip location information by using the patient's cardiac electrical activity. The Celerity System is indicated for use as an alternative method to chest X-ray or fluoroscopy confirmation of PICC tip placement in adult patients.

Device Story

The Celerity System is an ECG-based tip confirmation system used during PICC insertion to verify catheter tip location in the superior vena cava/right atrium. It inputs cardiac electrical signals via an ECG patient cable and surface electrodes; the system monitors P-wave morphology changes as the catheter tip approaches the heart. The device provides real-time visual feedback to the clinician, allowing for immediate tip positioning without immediate reliance on chest X-ray or fluoroscopy. It is intended for use in clinical settings by trained healthcare providers. By providing real-time guidance, the system aims to reduce the need for post-procedural imaging, potentially decreasing radiation exposure and procedural time. The system includes a monitor, software, and various cables/accessories.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Performance evaluation included design verification and validation per 21 CFR 820.30, and testing to IEC 60601-1 (General Safety) and IEC 60601-1-2 (EMC). Human factors/simulated use testing was conducted to evaluate the system as an alternative to X-ray/fluoroscopy, confirming safe and effective use.

Technological Characteristics

System includes monitor, software, ECG patient cable, remote control cable, battery, and accessories (electrodes, snap leads). Operates via ECG signal processing to detect P-wave changes. Complies with IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-1-2 standards. Standalone system.

Indications for Use

Indicated for positioning PICCs in adult patients. Provides real-time tip location via cardiac electrical activity as an alternative to chest X-ray or fluoroscopy. Not contraindicated but limited for patients with atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, severe tachycardia, pacemaker-driven rhythm, or COPD; additional confirmation required for these patients.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A percutaneous, implanted, long-term intravascular catheter is a device that consists of a slender tube and any necessary connecting fittings, such as luer hubs, and accessories that facilitate the placement of the device. The device allows for repeated access to the vascular system for long-term use of 30 days or more, and it is intended for administration of fluids, medications, and nutrients; the sampling of blood; and monitoring blood pressure and temperature. The device may be constructed of metal, rubber, plastic, composite materials, or any combination of these materials and may be of single or multiple lumen design.
