Intended Use
The LassoStar™ Circular Mapping Catheter is indicated for multiple electrophysiological recording and stimulation of the atrial region of the heart. The catheter is designed to obtain electrograms in the heart.
Device Story
LassoStar™ is a multi-electrode circular diagnostic catheter for atrial electrophysiological mapping. Input: cardiac electrical signals captured via ten ring electrodes on a distal circular spine. Operation: catheter inserted into the heart to obtain electrograms; used for recording and stimulation. Output: electrogram signals transmitted to external recording/stimulation equipment. Used in clinical electrophysiology settings by physicians. Device features a 3 French outer diameter and stainless steel shaft; no tip deflection mechanism. Benefits: facilitates mapping of atrial regions to support diagnosis and treatment planning. Healthcare providers use the recorded electrograms to identify cardiac electrical activity and guide clinical decision-making during electrophysiology procedures.
Clinical Evidence
No human clinical data. Evidence consists of bench testing and a GLP animal study. Bench testing included visual inspection, electrical/impedance/resistance testing, EEPROM burn checks, buckle force, insertion, torque, tensile strength, visualization, packaging integrity, and sterilization validation. Animal study evaluated mapping capabilities using deflectable sheaths with the non-deflectable catheter. Results confirmed the device meets pre-determined acceptance criteria and functional requirements.
Technological Characteristics
Multi-electrode circular diagnostic catheter; 10 ring electrodes; 15mm, 20mm, 25mm loop diameters. Materials: Pellethane spine cover, stainless steel shaft. 3 French outer diameter. Non-deflectable. Sterile (EtO). Connectivity: wired interface to external electrophysiology recording/stimulation systems.
Indications for Use
Indicated for multiple electrode electrophysiological recording and stimulation of the atrial region of the heart in patients requiring cardiac electrogram acquisition.
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.

## Performance Data
The LassoStar™ catheter underwent bench and animal testing using similar pre-determined acceptance criteria as the predicate device. Testing was completed to support the proposed modifications. The GLP animal study evaluated various sizes of deflectable sheaths to determine mapping capabilities of the proposed device with no deflection. The decreased outer diameter and change in shaft material were analyzed using functional and biocompatibility testing. The results of the testing demonstrate the device in scope of this Premarket notification meet the product requirements. The following tests were performed in support of the substantial equivalence determination:
- Visual Inspections ●
- Electrical ●
- EEPROM Burn checks
- Buckle force ●
- Insertion ●
- Torque
- Tensile strength
- Impedance and resistance
- Visualization
- Packaging Sterile Barrier Gross Leak ●
- Transportation
- Biocompatibility
- Sterilization ●
- Simulated Use .
#### Basis for Determination of Substantial Equivalence
The LassoStar™ Circular Mapping Catheter is substantially equivalent to the currently cleared predicate device. The performance data supports the safety and effectiveness of the proposed device and demonstrates the device should perform as intended in the specified use conditions.
