Intended Use

The CHM Device is a remote monitoring software solution intended to collect and store biometric data from physiological measurement devices intended for use in the home. The CHM Device also allows for the automated transmission of the biometric data to a remote secure server via an existing mobile telecommunications and/or internet infrastructure.

The stored biometric data is accessible by clinicians for analysis and intervention. Patients can also review the stored biometric data and receive educational and motivational content from clinicians.

The CHM Device can be used as a standalone device or in conjunction with supported patient monitoring devices, such as a glucometer, weight scale, pulse oximeter, and blood pressure monitor.

The CHM Device is not intended for use in surgical rooms, intensive care units, intermediate or step-down units or emergency vehicles. It is not interpretive, nor is it intended for diagnosis or as a replacement for the oversight of healthcare professionals. It does not provide real-time or emergency monitoring.

Device Description

The CHM is a software platform for the collection and display of biometric data, primarily from externally supported patient monitoring devices, both to the patient and to the clinician. The CHM Device may also be used as a standalone device. The CHM Device uses existing Internet and telecommunications architecture (cell phones and computers) for the automated transmission of medical data to a remote secure server from where it can be viewed remotely by clinicians and patients for the purposes of storage and basic analysis. The CHM Device also provides educational and motivationalities allowing the clinician to send tasks, recommendations, surveys, and educational and motivational messages to patients.

AI/ML Overview

Here's an analysis of the provided text regarding the acceptance criteria and supporting study for the Verizon Wireless Converged Health Management Device:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

Acceptance CriteriaReported Device Performance
Ensure changes to the software have not introduced new faults.Regression testing was performed and demonstrated that changes to the software did not introduce new faults.
Ensure that a change to one part of the software does not affect other parts of the software.Usability testing was performed and demonstrated that changes to one part of the software did not affect other parts.
Ensure that biometric data was transferred accurately from the Telcare and Genesis Health glucometers to the server infrastructure and into the CHM platform.Additional verification and validation activities were performed and demonstrated accurate transfer of biometric data from Telcare and Genesis Health glucometers to the server infrastructure and into the CHM platform.
All verification and validation activities, as required by the risk analysis, were performed.All verification and validation activities, as required by the risk analysis, were performed.

2. Sample Sizes Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance:

The document states that "regression and usability testing was performed" and "additional verification and verification activities were performed." However, specific sample sizes for a 'test set' (e.g., number of data points, number of users, number of transfers) are not explicitly mentioned.

The data provenance (country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective) is not mentioned in the provided text.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of those Experts:

The document does not mention using experts to establish ground truth in the context of the performance data. The testing appears to be focused on software functionality and data transfer accuracy against design specifications rather than against expert interpretations of medical conditions.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

An adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) is not applicable or mentioned given the nature of the testing described, which focuses on software functionality and data transfer accuracy rather than diagnostic performance requiring expert consensus.

5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done, and the Effect Size of How Much Human Readers Improve with AI vs. Without AI Assistance:

A Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. The device is a "remote monitoring software solution" and not an interpretive or diagnostic AI. It collects and stores biometric data for clinicians to analyze. The document explicitly states: "It is not interpretive, nor is it intended for diagnosis or as a replacement for the oversight of healthcare professionals."

6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done:

The performance evaluation described is a standalone algorithm-only performance assessment in the sense that the testing verified the software's ability to accurately transfer and handle data. There is no mention of human-in-the-loop performance measurement for the device's core functionality. The clinicians still analyze the data.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used (Expert Consensus, Pathology, Outcomes Data, etc.):

The ground truth used for the testing appears to be the expected behavior and functional requirements of the software, specifically related to accurate data transfer and functionality after changes. This is not a "medical ground truth" established by experts for diagnostic purposes but rather an engineering and software validation ground truth. For instance, for data transfer accuracy, the ground truth would be the original data from the glucometers.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set:

The document does not mention a training set because the device is a data collection and management platform, not a machine learning or AI algorithm that requires training on a dataset to learn patterns or make predictions.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established:

As there is no training set, this question is not applicable.

Performance Data

As part of its software verification and validation activities, regression and usability testing was performed to ensure that the changes to the software have not introduced new faults and that a change to one part of the software does not affect other parts of the software. Additional verification and verification activities were performed to ensure that the biometric data was transferred accurately from the Telcare and Genesis Health glucometers server infrastructure into the CHM platform. All verification and validation activities, as required by the risk analysis, were performed and the results demonstrated that the predetermined acceptance criteria were met.

Substantial Equivalence

The Verizon Wireless Converged Health Management Device has the same intended Use and indications for use and its predicate, Verizon Wireless Converged Health Management Device (K122458). It also has identical technological characteristics as the predicate device. Software verification and validation testing demonstrate that the Verizon Wireless Converged Health Management Device performs as intended and that the differences between the Verizon Wireless Converged Health Management Device and its predicate do not raise new questions of safety or effectivenesss.
