Overview
AI-generated summary, 18 Sep 2026
This device is a Permanent Pacemaker Electrode, designed for implantation in the cardiovascular system to facilitate cardiac pacing. It delivers electrical impulses to regulate heart rhythm in patients with bradycardia or other conduction disorders, ensuring proper cardiac function through direct myocardial stimulation.
The PICF 0860/PSCF 0860/PSC 0860/PIAF 0860/PSAF 0860 electrodes are intended for sterile surgical use and are classified as Class III medical devices under FDA regulation 870.3680. They are reusable after appropriate cleaning and sterilization procedures, and their design adheres to MRI safety standards for specific imaging environments. Supplied as part of a pacemaker system, these electrodes require professional medical implantation and maintenance.

Questions
AI-generated answers, 18 Sep 2026
Are these pacemaker electrodes designed for single-use or can they be reused after proper cleaning and sterilization?
These electrodes (PICF 0860/PSCF 0860/PSC 0860/PIAF 0860/PSAF 0860) are explicitly labeled as reusable. The manufacturer, Ela Medical, Inc., states they must undergo appropriate cleaning and sterilization procedures before reuse, ensuring compliance with medical device reprocessing standards.
What types of patients are these electrodes intended to support, and how do they function?
These electrodes are designed for patients with bradycardia or conduction disorders requiring cardiac pacing. They deliver electrical impulses directly to the myocardium to regulate heart rhythm and maintain proper cardiac function, functioning as part of a permanent pacemaker system.
How should these electrodes be stored before use, and what precautions should be taken?
While the data does not specify storage conditions explicitly, these electrodes are intended for sterile surgical use. They should be stored in a clean, dry environment, protected from contamination, and handled with sterile techniques before implantation to ensure patient safety.
Are these electrodes compatible with MRI imaging, and if so, under what conditions?
Yes, these electrodes adhere to MRI safety standards, but compatibility depends on the specific imaging environment and settings. The design accounts for MRI safety, though final use must align with the manufacturer’s guidelines and the imaging facility’s protocols to avoid risks like heating or displacement.
What regulatory pathway was followed for these electrodes, and what does that mean for their use?
These electrodes were cleared through the FDA’s 510(k) pathway, specifically under the Traditional route, with a decision of Substantially Equivalent (SESE). This means they were determined to have the same intended use, technological characteristics, and performance as a legally marketed predicate device, ensuring they meet FDA safety and effectiveness standards for permanent pacemaker electrodes.
