Overview
AI-generated summary, 18 Sep 2026
These devices are classified as permanent pacemaker electrodes, designed for implantation within the cardiovascular system. They serve as conductive interfaces between a pacemaker pulse generator and cardiac tissue, facilitating electrical stimulation to regulate heart rhythm in patients with bradycardia or other conduction disorders.
The L-12, L-21, and L-22 electrodes are intended for single-use implantation and are regulated under FDA 510(k) clearance (K780569) as substantially equivalent devices. They are supplied sterile and intended for use in cardiovascular procedures, adhering to regulatory standards outlined in 21 CFR 870.3680. Each model (L-12, L-21, L-22) is uniquely identified by its reference code and must be stored according to manufacturer instructions prior to use.

Questions
AI-generated answers, 18 Sep 2026
Are these electrodes reusable or intended for single-use only, and how does that affect their storage requirements?
The L-12, L-21, and L-22 electrodes are explicitly designed for single-use implantation only. Since they are sterile upon supply, they must be stored according to the manufacturer’s instructions to maintain sterility until use. Reusing these electrodes is not recommended, as it could compromise patient safety and regulatory compliance.
What types of heart conditions are these electrodes intended to address, and how do they work?
These electrodes are permanent pacemaker electrodes used to facilitate electrical stimulation of cardiac tissue. They are specifically intended for patients with bradycardia or conduction disorders, helping regulate heart rhythm by acting as a conductive interface between the pacemaker pulse generator and the heart. They are not meant for acute or temporary pacing but rather long-term rhythm management.
How do I identify the correct electrode model (L-12, L-21, or L-22) for my patient’s procedure?
Each model (L-12, L-21, L-22) is uniquely identified by its reference code as specified by Coratomic, Inc. The selection should be based on the manufacturer’s guidelines, which align with the specific anatomical or clinical requirements of the patient’s cardiovascular procedure. Always verify the correct model against the procedural plan and electrode documentation.
What regulatory pathway was followed for these electrodes, and what does that mean for their use?
The L-12, L-21, and L-22 electrodes were cleared through the FDA 510(k) process under the classification of permanent pacemaker electrodes, with a decision code of SESE (Substantially Equivalent). This means they were determined to have the same intended use and technological characteristics as a legally marketed predicate device, ensuring compliance with 21 CFR 870.3680. Their clearance does not imply any specific clinical indication beyond what is stated in the description.
