Intended Use
The FR2 is intended to be used with disposable Heartstream defibrillation pads applied to a person who is experiencing the symptoms of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA): unresponsiveness and absence of breathing. When the patient is under 8 years or weighs less than 55 pounds (25 kg), the FR2 should be used with attenuated pediatric defibrillation pads. The FR2 is intended for use by personnel who have been trained in its operation. The user should be qualified by training in basic life support (BLS), advanced life support (ALS) or other physician-authorized emergency medical response. At the discretion of emergency care personnel, the M3860A FR2 with ECG display enabled can also be used with the FR2 ECG Cable to display the rhythm of a responsive or breathing patient, regardless of age. The FR2 and ECG Cable system provides a non-diagnostic display for attended patient monitoring. While connected to the FR2 ECG Cable, the FR2 evaluates the patient's ECG and disables it's shock capability.
Device Description
The Heartstream FR2 is an automated external defibrillator available in two models, including one with ECG display and manual shock capability. Features include selftesting, impedance-compensating biphasic truncated exponential waveform, multiparameter Patient Analysis System (PAS), and human factor designs to facilitate use by lay responders. A non-rechargeable lithium manganese dioxide battery powers the FR2 with a typical capacity of 300 shocks or 12 hours of operating time. Except for specific programmed periods when a responder needs to deliver uninterrupted CPR, the FR2 continuously and automatically analyzes the ECG and alerts the responder when the ECG changes to a possible shockable rhythm. Analysis continues even after the FR2 advises a shock and arms - if the ECG spontaneously converts to a nonshockable rhythm prior to a responder pressing the shock button, the FR2 disarms. If significant artifact is detected in the ECG, Heartstream's PAS suspends further analysis until reliable data is available. When a shockable rhythm is detected, the FR2 directs the responder to press the shock button to deliver a biphasic shock to the patient. Event and incident data can be recorded during FR2 use with an optional data card having a recording capacity of four hours of event and ECG data (or thirty minutes with voice recording). The FR2 has an optional Training and Administration Pack that is used for device training and for customizing FR2 set-up options. Use of the Training and Administration Pack converts the FR2 to a training device with ten training "scripts" that simulate different SCA scenarios. The FR2 also has an infrared communication port to facilitate communication of set-up parameters. An optional reusable ECG Cable can be inserted into the AED's connector port to permit the viewing of lead II ECG and heart rate on the FR2's main crystal display screen. Three lead wires, connected to standard disposable ECG electrodes, are labeled according to AAMI or IEC conventions. If a potentially shockable rhythm is detected (using the existing FR2 PAS algorithm) or if the heart rate drops below 30 beats per minute, voice and text prompts are generated.

No
The document describes a "multiparameter Patient Analysis System (PAS)" and an "existing FR2 PAS algorithm" for ECG analysis. While this involves algorithms, there is no mention of AI, ML, or deep learning, nor is there any description of training or test data sets which are typical for ML-based systems. The analysis appears to be based on pre-programmed rules or traditional signal processing techniques.

Yes

The device is an automated external defibrillator (AED) that treats sudden cardiac arrest by delivering electrical shocks, which is a therapeutic intervention.

Yes.

The text specifies that the "FR2 and ECG Cable system provides a non-diagnostic display for attended patient monitoring." However, it also states that the device "continuously and automatically analyzes the ECG" and a "multiparameter Patient Analysis System (PAS)" which implies it performs a diagnostic function to determine the need for a shock.

No

The device description clearly details hardware components such as the defibrillator itself, disposable pads, a battery, an ECG cable, and an infrared communication port. While it contains software for analysis and control, it is fundamentally a hardware device with integrated software.

Based on the provided text, the FR2 device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).

Here's why:

  • IVDs analyze biological samples (like blood, urine, tissue) outside of the body. The FR2 analyzes the electrical activity of the heart (ECG) directly from the patient's body via electrodes.
  • The intended use is for treating sudden cardiac arrest by delivering an electrical shock. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.
  • While it displays ECG information, the text explicitly states the ECG display is "non-diagnostic" when used with the ECG cable for monitoring responsive or breathing patients.

The FR2 is an automated external defibrillator (AED), which is a medical device used to treat life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias.

or breathing patient, regardless of age. The FR2 and ECG Cable system provides a nondiagnostic display for attended patient monitoring. While connected to the FR2 ECG Cable, the FR2 evaluates the patient's ECG and disables its shock capability.

Comparison of Technology Characteristics 8.

The modified Heartstream FR2 AED with the ECG Cable employs the same fundamental scientific technologies as the Laerdal Heartstart 3000, the Heartstream XLT Defibrillator/Monitor and the Active Corporation ActiveECG device.

Data Used in Determination of Substantial Equivalence 9.

The Heartstream FR2 employs the same technologies as the predicate devices used for comparison. The FR2 acquires and analyzes ECG signals, and utilizes the same shock advisory criteria like the predicates and the FR2 without the ECG Cable.

Bench testing demonstrates that the performance of the ECG Cable meets specifications is appropriate for its intended application.

10. Conclusion

The modifications proposed to include an optional ECG Cable to the FR2 accessory offerings do not present new issues of safety or effectiveness.
