No
The description mentions a "proprietary algorithm" but provides no indication that it utilizes AI or ML techniques. The core technology described is based on electrical impedance measurements and calculating a base impedance value (Zo), which is a standard physiological measurement. There is no mention of AI/ML terms, training data, or performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML devices.
No
The device is described as a "monitor" and is intended for "non-invasive monitoring and management" of fluid status, not for providing direct therapy.
Yes
The device is described as an 'early warning' monitor for determining changes in the fluid status of patients with fluid management problems, which indicates its use in identifying and monitoring a patient's condition.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "non-invasive, battery powered thoracic base impedance monitor" and "works by applying a minimal current to the patient, measuring electrical impedance changes". This indicates it is a hardware device that uses electrical signals and requires physical contact with the patient via electrodes. While it incorporates a "proprietary algorithm" (software), it is not solely software.
Based on the provided information, the ZOE™ Fluid Status Monitor is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
- ZOE™ Function: The ZOE™ Fluid Status Monitor is a non-invasive device that measures electrical impedance changes in the thorax. It does not analyze samples taken from the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use describes monitoring and managing patients with fluid management problems through non-invasive means.
Therefore, the ZOE™ Fluid Status Monitor falls under the category of a medical device but not specifically an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Device Description
The ZOE™ Fluid Status Monitor is a non-invasive, battery powered thoracic base impedance monitor designed as an 'early warning' monitor for determining changes in the fluid status of patients with fluid management problems.
The ZOE works by applying a minimal current to the patient. measuring electrical impedance changes throughout the thorax as aortic blood flow increases and decreases in response to each heartbeat. Base Impedance also known as Zo, decreases when fluid increases and rises when less fluid exists in the chest. This device incorporates a proprietary algorithm to calculate the Zo value.
The ZOE is designed for use with disposable, self-adhesive silver / silver chloride electrodes that are readily available / commercially approved within the United States for other approved cardiovascular monitoring systems.

• Device Description:
The ZOE™ Fluid Status Monitor is a non-invasive, battery powered thoracic base impedance monitor designed as an 'early warning' monitor for determining changes in the fluid status of patients with fluid management problems.
The ZOE works by applying a minimal current to the patient. measuring electrical impedance changes throughout the thorax as aortic blood flow increases and decreases in response to each heartbeat. Base Impedance also known as Zo, decreases when fluid increases and rises when less fluid exists in the chest. This device incorporates a proprietary algorithm to calculate the Zo value.

page 2 of 3
The ZOE™ Fluid Status Monitor is indicated for patients:
- With fluid management problems o
- Taking diuretic medication o
- Living with Heart Failure o
- Living with End-stage Renal Disease o
- Recovering from Coronary Artery Disease related event o
- Suffering from Recurrent Dehydration o
Contraindications for Use .
The ZOE™ Fluid Status Monitor is contraindicated for use with patients:
- With allergies to electrode hydrogel O
- Skin sensitivities to electrode hydrogel o
- Skin breakdown in areas on the chest where ZOE electrode placement is o required.
• Clinical Performance Data
Clinical performance data has been submitted.
· Rationale for Substantial Equivalence
-
- The ZOE™ Fluid Status Monitor patient interface design is very similar to the predicate device [IQ System (Impedance Plethysmograph Monitor {DSB}) already approved by the FDA and currently being marketed by NMT, LLC]
-
- The INTENDED USES and the OPERATING PRINCIPLES (i.e. Effectiveness) of the ZOE™ Fluid Status Monitor are the SAME as the Zo measurement function of the predicate device.
-
- The OPERATIONAL FEATURES of the ZOE™ Fluid Status Monitor are the SAME or SIMILAR to those offered by the predicate device
-
- The SAFETY FEATURES of the ZOE™ Fluid Status Monitor are the SAME or very SIMILAR to those offered by the predicate device.
Therefore, in summary, the ZOE™ Fluid Status Monitor is substantially equivalent to the Zo measurement feature in the identified predicate device that has previously been allowed for commercial distribution in the United States.
2
· Safety and Effectiveness
The ZOE™ Fluid Status Monitor complies with the electrical standards of the Underwriters Laboratories UL 2601-1 / CSA C22.2 No. 60601 and has passed an inspection to these standards by an independent testing house. The ZOE underwent independent scrutiny and testing to assess the overall electrical safety and EMI safety. The ZOE met all electrical and electromagnetic compatibility (EMI) safety requirements set forth in the European national Safety Requirements LVD Low voltage Directive testing to Safety of Medical Devices EN 60601-1:2003, EMC testing to Emissions / Immunity Requirements for EMC/EMI requirements for Medical Devices EN 60601-1-2 which reasonably assures the device is safe when used as directed for its prescribed intended use.
The ZOE does not raise any new issues of safety, effectiveness or performance of the device when compared to the existing predicate device.
· Conclusions
The data submitted in this 510(k) Premarket Notification, for the ZOE Fluid Status Monitor demonstrates that this product is substantially equivalent with respect to the indications for use, operating principles, operational features, and safety features to the identified legally marketed predicate device. With the information provided, the safety and effectiveness of the product can be reasonably assured, and we believe that this device clearly meets the requirement for a "Substantial Equivalence" decision in accordance with the 510(k) guidelines.
