Frequently asked questions

What is the primary purpose of the Modified Model 5401B Test Cable in clinical settings?

The Modified Model 5401B Test Cable is specifically designed for testing and calibration of implantable pacemaker pulse generators. It provides the necessary electrical connectivity and signal verification to ensure the pacemaker functions correctly before implantation, helping to confirm safety and performance in controlled environments like clinical labs or operating rooms.

Is this test cable intended for single-use or can it be reused across multiple procedures?

The Modified Model 5401B Test Cable is classified as a reusable medical device. Since it is used in diagnostic testing rather than direct patient contact during implantation, it is engineered for repeated use in clinical or laboratory settings where pacemaker functionality is validated.

How was the regulatory approval for this device determined, and what does that mean for its use?

The device received FDA 510(k) clearance under the Implantable Pacemaker Pulse-Generator category, with a decision dated April 26, 1990. The clearance was granted as *substantially equivalent* to a predicate device, meaning the FDA determined it has the same intended use and technological characteristics as a previously approved product. This classification allows it to be legally marketed for its specified diagnostic purpose in the U.S.

Are there any specific storage requirements or handling instructions mentioned for this test cable?

The regulatory data does not provide explicit storage instructions or sterility requirements for the Modified Model 5401B Test Cable. Since it is reusable and designed for clinical/laboratory use, proper cleaning and maintenance protocols should be followed to ensure functionality and longevity. Always refer to the manufacturer’s instructions for detailed handling and care guidelines.
