## Identification

The ensoETM is a multi-lumen silicone tube placed in the esophagus to connect to an external heat exchanger to either cool or warm a patient or to cool the esophagus to reduce the likelihood of thermal injury after radiofrequency (RF) cardiac ablation procedures. It also provides gastric decompression and suctioning.

## Classification Rationale

Class II (special controls). The device is a temperature regulation device for esophageal protection during cardiac ablation procedures, and the FDA has determined that the benefits outweigh the risks when mitigated by the use of class II controls.

## Special Controls

In combination with the general controls of the FD&C Act, the temperature regulation device for esophageal protection during cardiac ablation procedures device is subject to the following special controls:
