Navik 3D is intended for catheter-based atrial and ventricular mapping using compatible catheters, and acquired data from compatible fluoroscopy systems and patient recording and monitoring systems. Navik 3D is intended to provide 3D location of these catheters from acquired 2D fluoroscopic images. The device allows real-time display of cardiac maps in a number of different formats, including anatomical maps, cardiac electrical activation maps and cardiac voltage maps.
Device Story
Navik 3D is a multi-component computer system for real-time 3D cardiac mapping in the EP lab. It processes 2D fluoroscopic images to determine 3D catheter location; digitizes and displays body surface ECG and intracardiac EGM signals from existing patient monitoring systems. Unlike magnetic-based systems, it requires no proprietary sensors or patches for mapping. The system uses ECG patch detection for motion compensation. Physicians use the system to visualize cardiac anatomy, electrical activation, and voltage maps in real-time. The output is displayed on a monitor or iPad, assisting clinicians in navigating catheters and identifying cardiac electrical activity. This aids in diagnosing and treating arrhythmias by providing spatial context for catheter placement without requiring specialized catheters.
Clinical Evidence
No human clinical data. Evidence consists of non-clinical bench testing and animal studies. Phantom study compared tip location accuracy between Navik 3D and CARTO 3. Electrogram analysis and ECG gating study compared cycle length, local activation time (LAT), and EGM voltage measurements against reference signals. Extensive animal testing directly compared navigation and mapping capabilities between Navik 3D and the predicate device.
Technological Characteristics
System utilizes off-the-shelf IT hardware (computer, router, graphics card, iPad). 3D localization via fluoroscopic image processing; signal acquisition via Data Acquisition Module (frame grabber and A/D conversion). Motion compensation via ECG patch detection algorithms. Complies with IEC 62366-1 (usability) and IEC 62304 (software lifecycle).
Indications for Use
Indicated for catheter-based atrial and ventricular mapping in patients undergoing electrophysiology procedures.

#### 5.1 Description of the Device
Navik 3D™ is a multi-component computer system that utilizes image processing methods to provide three-dimensional (3D) location of catheters in real-time from acquired two-dimensional (2D) fluoroscopic (fluoro) images. In addition, body surface electrocardiogram (ECG) and intracardiac electrogram (EGM) signals obtained from the patient recording and monitoring systems that already exist in the electrophysiology (EP) lab are digitized and displayed.
Navik 3D utilizes data points from 3D catheter location and ECG-intracardiac EGM signals and uses this information to create and display 3D maps of the human heart. It does not require special catheters or patches, specially trained technicians, or fluoroscopy exposure beyond standard of care.
#### 5.2 Indications for Use
Navik 3D is intended for catheter-based atrial and ventricular mapping using compatible catheters, and acquired data from compatible fluoroscopy systems and patient recording and monitoring systems. Navik 3D is intended to provide 3D location of these catheters from acquired 2D fluoroscopic images. The device allows real-time display of cardiac maps in a number of different formats, including anatomical maps, cardiac electrical activation maps and cardiac voltage maps
#### 5.3 Summary of Technological Characteristics Comparison
Table 5-1 shows the similarities and differences of the technology between the two products. The key difference is that the predicate device uses a magnetic location pad, multiple patches around the
{4}------------------------------------------------
patient's chest, a proprietary catheter with a built in magnetic sensor and a patient interface unit (PIU) to acquire 3D catheter location information, whereas Navik 3D uses an image processing approach to analyze 2D fluoroscopic images to identify the 3D catheter location and can use any compatible catheters. While these methods are different, the physical principles behind each technology are well-established and do not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness.

#### 5.4 Performance Data
APN Health conducted the following non-clinical performance tests:
- Design verification and validation testing.
- A phantom study to directly compare tip location accuracy performance by making measurement ● simultaneously on the predicate device CARTO and Navik 3D systems.
- o An electrogram analysis and ECG gating study to directly compare cycle length (CL), local activation time (LAT) and EGM voltage measurements against reference signals.
- . Extensive animal testing where navigation and mapping capabilities between Navik 3D and the predicate device were directly compared.
Based upon the results of these studies, it was determined the Navik 3D performance was substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
#### 5.5 Substantial Equivalence Conclusion
The predicate device and Navik 3D have the same intended use, to provide 3D cardiac mapping. While CARTO has more indications for use than Navik 3D, the Navik 3D system's indications for use are a subset of those of CARTO.
{6}------------------------------------------------
From a technological perspective. CARTO uses a magnetic localization method to obtain the 3D location of the catheter tip whereas Navik 3D utilizes image processing methods. Because of these differences in approach, CARTO includes more hardware elements, such as a magnetic location pad, patches around the chest of the patient, a PIU and other hardware. Additionally, CARTO requires use of a specific mapping catheter with magnetic sensors, whereas Navik 3D uses any compatible mapping and ablation catheters. CARTO also provides additional functionality, such as generating EGM signals, whereas Navik 3D takes output from the patient recording and monitoring system and the fluoroscopy system as inputs and performs digitization. While there are differences in the technology, the data acquisition technology is well-characterized. Additionally, the image processing approach of Navik 3D is founded on strong physics principles, and both the non-clinical and animal study performance data have shown substantially equivalent performance during simultaneous comparison studies Therefore, the differences in the technology characteristics does not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness and one can conclude that Navik 3D is substantially equivalent to the predicate device, CARTO.
