IV. DEVICE DESCRIPTION

Heylo™ System is a leakage notification system designed to monitor for leakage of stoma output in patients with an ileostomy or colostomy. Heylo™ System is comprised of a protective adhesive barrier with integrated sensors that detect occurrences of leakage of output and a transmitter that translates leakage data and sends notifications to the user's Heylo App.

The Heylo™ System is considered an accessory to the ostomy bag/pouch. It is intended to be used together with an ostomy barrier (synonymous with ostomy pouch, ostomy baseplate and bag) and designed for compatibility with most baseplates and supporting products. It can be worn wherever patients normally wear their ostomy appliance.

V. INDICATIONS FOR USE

Heylo™ System is indicated to allow detection of ostomy appliance leakage for people with an ileostomy or colostomy, giving them an opportunity to take preventative measures. Heylo™ System is comprised of a protective adhesive barrier with integrated sensors that detect occurrences of leakage of output from the wearer's stoma and a transmitter that translates leakage data and sends notifications to the user's Heylo app. Heylo™ System and its components are for individuals with an ostomy 12 years and older.

VI. COMPARISON OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH THE PREDICATE DEVICE

The subject device and predicate both consist of sensors applied to existing ostomy bags/baseplates and provide notifications and other information to the patient via mobile devices and Bluetooth technology to prevent unfortunate spillage and leakage. While the OSTOM-i™ Alert, detects fill volume, the subject device, Heylo™ System, observes potential leakage between the patient's skin and the ostomy bag. The predicate device was selected because it is similar in technology and intended use to the Heylo™ System.

The Heylo™ System is an accessory to an ostomy pouch under the EXB product code. The Heylo™ System accessory sends ostomy bag leakage data via the transmitter to the patient's downloaded app on their iOS or Android device. The information is then reviewed by the patient who can respond by changing their ostomy bag/baseplate as needed. Both devices are ostomy accessories with sensor technology, have comparable intended use, and have technological differences that do not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness.

The Heylo™ System accessory is substantially equivalent to OSTOM‐i™ Alert (K140938). A comparison of the devices is presented in Table 1.
