Introduction System Description What Is It? The TactiSys™ Quartz Equipment is part of a system for percutaneous catheter radiofrequency (RF) ablation of atrial cardiac arrhythmias that allows visualization of the contact force between the tip of a compatible contact force ablation catheter and the heart wall. Use of the system to treat a specific cardiac arrhythmia is determined by the indications for use of the compatible contact force ablation catheter.
TactiSys™ Quartz Equipment Hardware The TactiSys Quartz Equipment hardware is a non-sterile active signal and data processing device that interconnects the compatible contact force ablation catheter to an external RF generator. The TactiSys Quartz Equipment hardware collects data from the catheter to compute the force and related information. TactiSys Quartz Equipment hardware operates as a server, sending contact force information to the compatible EnSite™ Contact Force Module (referred later in this document as “Client”). The TactiSys Quartz Equipment hardware is powered by a mains adapter, which is provided with the device.
Compatible Catheter The TactiSys Quartz Equipment is intended to be used with a compatible contact force ablation catheter. The combination of the two devices is referred to as the TactiCath™ Quartz Set.
Related Components The following additional components are required for RF ablation procedures and to display contact force information:
• RF generator • Irrigation pump • Client/ Compatible Electrophysiology System
– EnSite™ Cardiac Mapping System with EnSite™ Contact Force Module – EnSite™ X EP System with EnSite™ X Contact Force Module
The following illustration shows how the devices are interconnected:

Chapter 3. Installation Cleaning and Disinfecting the System
TactiSys™ Quartz Equipment Instructions for Use ARTEN600200737
The Client should be placed outside the sterile field in the electrophysiology laboratory or in the control room. The site controlling the device should have policies in place prescribing the physical safety and security of the devices in the electrophysiology laboratory. For example, physically securing devices and information should include policies that limit physical access, securing equipment in locked rooms, managing access to secured rooms, and restricting the ability to remove devices from a secure area. WARNING: Do not obstruct the ventilation grid located on the bottom and the top of the TactiSys™ Quartz Equipment hardware case. CAUTION: To avoid risk of damaging the TactiSys™ Quartz Equipment, make sure that the supporting surface is horizontal, stable, and free from vibrations.
Procedure To set up TactiSys™ Quartz Equipment, proceed as follows: 1. Optional: Assemble the TactiSys Quartz Equipment hardware on the TactiSys™ Quartz Mounting Bracket (see TactiSys Quartz Equipment Mounting Bracket Instructions) and fix the mount close to the electrophysiology laboratory operation table. 2. Connect the mains adapter provided to the appropriate mains cord, and then to the TactiSys Quartz Equipment hardware power socket. Connect the mains cord to the mains power supply. 3. Connect the TactiSys Quartz Equipment hardware to the compatible Client using the Ethernet cable. 4. Connect the green connector of the RF cable to the TactiSys Quartz Equipment hardware RF cable socket, and the other connector into the RF generator. Radiofrequency cable PN-004 515 to be used with TactiCath Contact Force Ablation Catheters Radiofrequency cable TSQ-RF-TFSE-CBL to be used with TactiFlex Ablation Catheters 5. Connect an equipotential cable to the TactiSys Quartz Equipment hardware equipotential socket. NOTE:
NOTE:
An overview of all the system interconnections can be found in Appendix A: System Interconnections . All combinations of equipment must be in compliance with IEC 60601-1 (clause 16) Standard systems requirements. Anyone who interconnects various types of medical equipment configures a medical system and is therefore responsible for ensuring that the system complies with the requirements of system standard IEC 60601-1 (clause 16). Inspect the Ethernet cable and verify the cable is intact between the TactiSys Quartz System and the Client connection.
NOTE:
To prevent dust from contaminating the devices when no optical cables are connected, always cover unused optical cable ports with the protection cap. If there is no or intermittent output of the force sensor, carefully clean the optical connector using a lint-free swab soaked with 99% isopropyl alcohol solution and then dry the optical connector with a new lint-free swab without alcohol. Use only the mains adapter, cables, and other accessories provided by St. Jude Medical with the TactiSys Quartz Equipment hardware (see Appendix B: List of Accessories).
Cleaning and Disinfecting the System Instructions To avoid complications due to contamination of the system components, clean and decontaminate them before and after use.
