Intended Use

EasyFinder™ Fixed Curve Diagnostic Catheter is used for electrogram recording and cardiac stimulation during diagnostic electrophysiology studies.

Device Story

EasyFinder™ Fixed Curve Diagnostic Catheter is a sterile, single-use device featuring a high-torque shaft and fixed distal curve with an array of platinum electrodes. It is used by physicians in professional healthcare environments to perform electrophysiological mapping of cardiac structures. The catheter captures cardiac electrical signals (electrograms) and delivers stimulation pulses; these are transmitted via the FORLNK™ Cable for Mapping Catheter to external, separately cleared diagnostic electrophysiology equipment. The high-torque shaft allows manual rotation of the curved tip for precise positioning within the heart. The output, displayed on the external equipment, assists clinicians in diagnosing cardiac arrhythmias and guiding clinical decision-making during electrophysiology studies.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Substantial equivalence is supported by bench testing, including biocompatibility (ISO 10993-1), mechanical requirements (ISO 10555-1), electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility (IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-2-27), radiopacity validation, and sterilization validation (ISO 11135, AAMI TIR 28).

Technological Characteristics

Sterile, single-use diagnostic catheter with platinum electrodes and high-torque shaft. Fixed curve design available in 28 models/6 curve types. Connectivity via FORLNK™ accessory cable to external EP equipment. Complies with ISO 10555-1, ISO 10993-1, IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, and IEC 60601-2-27. Sterilized via Ethylene Oxide (EO).

Indications for Use

Indicated for electrogram recording and cardiac stimulation during diagnostic electrophysiology studies in patients undergoing such procedures.

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.

# Substantially Equivalent (SE) Conclusion

Based on the comparison and analysis above, the proposed device is determined to be Substantially Equivalent (SE) to the predicate device.

The proposed and predicate devices share the same indications for use and fundamental scientific technology, including principles of operation and mechanism of action. Design and technological differences between the proposed and predicate devices do not raise any new concerns of safety and effectiveness. The results of verification and validation testing demonstrate that the EasyFinder™ Fixed Curve Diagnostic Catheter and the accessory cable are as safe, as effective, and perform in a manner that is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
