Intended Use
The NeuTrace EP Mapping System v2.1 is indicated for catheter-based cardiac electrophysiological (EP) procedures. The NeuTrace EP Mapping System v2.1 provides information about the electrical activity of the heart and about catheter location during the procedure. The system can be used on patients who are eligible for a conventional electrophysiological procedure in the right atrium. The system has no special contraindications.
Device Story
NeuTrace EP Mapping System v2.1 is a 3D electroanatomical mapping (EAM) system for cardiac EP procedures. It uses magnetic-based localization to track compatible catheters (e.g., FlexAbility Sensor Enabled) within the right atrium. Input includes cardiac electrical signals (ECGs/EGMs) and catheter position data. The system processes these inputs to generate 3D cardiac models and overlays derived metrics, including Peak-to-Peak Voltage, Local Activation Time (LAT), Fractionation, and Minimum dV/dt. Used in clinical EP labs by physicians and trained staff; output is displayed on a workstation monitor to assist in mapping cardiac activity and guiding ablation procedures. The system supports lesion visualization and tagging. By providing real-time visualization of catheter location and electrical activity, it aids clinicians in diagnosing and treating cardiac arrhythmias, potentially improving procedural accuracy and patient outcomes.
Clinical Evidence
No human clinical data. Evidence consists of bench testing and a GLP animal study. Bench testing included software V&V, hardware verification (shift/drift/time delay), cybersecurity, EMC/EMI (IEC 60601-1/1-2), and comparative mapping analyses. GLP animal study verified system performance for accuracy, geometry, and mapping (LAT, voltage, fractionation). Results: ground-truth accuracy <1mm, shift <1mm, drift <2mm. Demonstrated equivalent 3D geometry and map generation compared to CARTO 3 and EnSite X systems.
Technological Characteristics
3D electroanatomical mapping system using magnetic-based localization. Components: workstation, sensor interface/control units, window field generator, interface switches. Compatible with FlexAbility Sensor Enabled ablation catheters. Connectivity: workstation-based. Software: NeuTrace Software Application v2.1 and Streaming Application Software v2.0. Standards: IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients eligible for conventional catheter-based cardiac electrophysiological (EP) procedures in the right atrium. No special contraindications.
Regulatory Classification
