Intended Use

The Sabratek Patient Home Monitoring System (PHMS), is a physiological data monitoring and communications system intended for use predominately in alternate care settings.

Device Description

The system consists of three major components as shown in Fig.1. The Ambulatory Patient Monitor (APM-2000) is an ambulatory device that monitors physiological data of the ambulatory patients. The Virtual Hospital Room Communicator (VHRC) is a data storage and transfer device that resides in a patient's home or at an alternate care center. The VHRC has the capability to detect and monitor the APM-2000. A number of peripheral devices such as a Scale, Non Invasive Blood Pressure device (NIBP), Oral Temperature probe and other devices can also be connected to the VHRC. Sabratek has selected peripheral devices with current agency rulings of substantial equivalence for use with the VHRC is accessible by a standard telephone line (POT). The Remote Device Access Software (RDAS) is a Microsoft Windows 95/NT applications program. The program interacts with the Virtual Hospital Room Communicator (VHRC) via modem and standard telephone line. The program collects the data stored in the VHRC and presents the information for review by the caregivers. The program can also control the functions of the APM-2000 and monitor the functions of other devices connected to the VHRC.

AI/ML Overview

The Sabratek Patient Home Monitoring System (PHMS) is a physiological data monitoring and communications system. The device itself is not a diagnostic tool but gathers various physiological data. Therefore, the "acceptance criteria" discussed here relate to the device's technical specifications and engineering performance rather than diagnostic accuracy.

Study Proving Acceptance Criteria:

The document states: "NON-CLINICAL TESTING CONCLUSIONS: Engineering bench testing Verification and Validation testing. The Sabratek Patient Home Monitoring System (PHMS) is equivalent in safety and efficacy to its predicate devices."

This indicates that the Sabratek PHMS underwent Engineering bench testing Verification and Validation testing to demonstrate its equivalence in safety and efficacy to predicate devices. The details of these tests are not provided in the summary.

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

The document does not provide details on the sample size used for the test set or the data provenance (e.g., country of origin, retrospective/prospective). This information would typically be found in detailed verification and validation reports, which are not included in this summary.

3. Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth:

The document does not mention the use of experts to establish ground truth for a test set. This is consistent with the nature of the device, which is for physiological data monitoring rather than diagnostic interpretation. The acceptance criteria focus on technical performance metrics (e.g., accuracy of respiration rate, ECG recording capability).

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

No adjudication method is mentioned, as the reported testing appears to be non-clinical engineering bench testing focusing on technical specifications rather than human interpretation or diagnostic accuracy.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study:

No MRMC comparative effectiveness study was done. The device is a monitoring system and does not involve human readers interpreting data from the device in a comparative effectiveness study scenario to improve diagnostic accuracy.

6. Standalone Performance (Algorithm Only without Human-in-the-Loop Performance):

The evaluation described as "Engineering bench testing Verification and Validation testing" implies a standalone performance assessment of the device's ability to accurately measure and record physiological data according to its specifications, without human intervention in the primary data acquisition and processing steps that define these metrics. However, the document does not explicitly state "standalone performance."

7. Type of Ground Truth Used:

The ground truth for the device's performance, such as respiration rate accuracy or ECG recording capability, would have been established through calibrated instruments and reference standards during the engineering bench testing. For example, a known, precisely controlled respiration rate would be used to test the device's respiration rate measurement, or a calibrated signal generator for ECG. The document implicitly relies on the technical specifications and performance of the listed component sensors (e.g., Pro-Tech 1246 for respiration, Nonin OEM II for pulse oximetry, AND Medical for NIBP) which themselves would have been validated against their respective ground truths.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set:

The document does not refer to a "training set" as the device is a hardware system for physiological monitoring, not an AI/machine learning algorithm requiring a separate training set.

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

Not applicable, as there is no mention of a training set for an AI/machine learning algorithm.

Re : K980619 Sabratek Patient Home Monitoring System Regulatory Class: II (two) Product Code: MHX Dated: July 10, 1998 Received: July 13, 1998

Dear Mr. Waddell:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to leqally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval) , it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Requlations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Requlation (QS) for Medical Devices: General requlation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Reqister. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have

{6}------------------------------------------------

under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or requlations.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4648. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, ?Misbranding by reference to premarket notification? (21CFR 807.97). Other general information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597 or at its internet address "http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsma/dsmamain.html".
