Device Class
Class 2
Intended Use
The Left Atrial Pressure Monitoring Catheters are intended to be used solely in conjunction with a standard hemodynamic pressure monitoring system to obtain continuous central vascular pressures via the left atrium during and/or after cardiac surgery.
Device Story
Radiopaque catheter; bonded to 3-way stopcock; includes pencil point stainless steel stylet; features 1, 2, 3, and 4 cm depth markings; includes moveable suture anchor. Used in clinical settings (OR/post-op) by physicians to monitor left atrial pressure. Device connects to standard hemodynamic pressure monitoring systems. Provides continuous pressure data to assist clinical decision-making during and after cardiac surgery. Single-use; sterile; non-pyrogenic.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Testing included biocompatibility (ISO 10993), hemocompatibility (hemolysis and clotting time assays), and mechanical performance (stopcock torque, tensile strength, leak testing, and flow redirection). All tests met pre-determined acceptance criteria.
Technological Characteristics
Radiopaque catheter; stainless steel stylet; 3-way stopcock. Dimensions include 1, 2, 3, and 4 cm markings. Biocompatibility per ISO 10993. Sterilized for single use.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients undergoing or recovering from cardiac surgery requiring continuous central vascular pressure monitoring via the left atrium.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An intravascular diagnostic catheter is a device used to record intracardiac pressures, to sample blood, and to introduce substances into the heart and vessels. Included in this generic device are right-heart catheters, left-heart catheters, and angiographic catheters, among others.

#### Device Description:
The Edwards Lifesciences Left Atrial Pressure Monitoring Catheters consist of a radiopaque catheter bonded to a 3-way stopcock. Each catheter is marked at 1, 2, 3, and 4 centimeters for reference and is fitted over a pencil point stainless steel stylet. The proximal end of the stylet terminates in a male luer lock hub which is engaged by the proximal female port of the stopcock. Each catheter is provided with a moveable suture anchor. The devices are provided sterile, they are non-pyrogenic and they are intended for single use only.
#### Intended Use:
The Left Atrial Pressure Monitoring Catheters are intended to be used solely in conjunction with a standard hemodynamic pressure monitoring system to obtain continuous central vascular pressures via the left atrium during and/or after cardiac surgery.
#### Comparative Analysis:
lt has been demonstrated that the Left Atrial Pressure Monitoring Catheter is comparable to the predicate device in intended use and other labeling, fundamental scientific technology, material types, principles of operation and functional performance evaluations. The stopcock material change has been fully assessed within the Edwards Risk Management and Design Controls systems. All necessary verification steps met pre-determined acceptance criteria. No new issues of safety or efficacy have been raised and the performance data demonstrate equivalence.
#### Functional/Safety Testing
The functional data indicate that the Left Atrial Pressure Monitoring Catheter performs in a substantially equivalent manner when compared with the predicate device. The following functional tests were performed. All data met pre-established acceptance criteria.
- Biocompatibility Per ISO 10993 .
- Hemocompatibility Hemolysis Assay and clotting time coagulation assay. .
- Stopcock Handle Rotation Torque Tensile test of the stem/core and the stopcock housing. .
- Stopcock Handle Leak Testing -- Inspection for defects after exposure to dynamic water flow . and manipulation of the stopcock stem/core.

K110103 p 2/2
- Stopcock Flow Redirection Testing Inspection of proper liquid directional flow as indicated . on stopcock lever.
- Stopcock Leakage Testing for Pressure Decay within the stopcock stem/core. .
- Stopcock Visual Inspection ~ Evaluated for component damage and discoloration. .
#### Conclusion:
The Left Atrial Pressure Monitoring Catheter is substantially equivalent to the cited predicate device.
