The document describes an "automated ecg analysis program" and an "Interpretation Program Hannover Ecg System (HES)" which provides diagnostic support. While this involves automated analysis, the description and the reference to a 1991 publication suggest a rule-based or algorithmic approach rather than modern AI/ML techniques. There is no mention of AI, ML, deep learning, or training/test sets in the context of machine learning.
No
The device is an electrocardiograph recorder, which is used for diagnostic purposes (recording and analyzing heart activity) and explicitly states that "no therapy or drugs can be subministrated based solely on Interpretation statements." This indicates it is not a therapeutic device.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states, "The interpretation program is intended to provide a diagnostic support to the physician for the ecg evaluation on rhythm and morphology." This directly indicates a diagnostic purpose.
No
The device description clearly outlines hardware components such as electrocardiograph electrodes, thermal paper, a graphic LCD display, a thermal printer, and an infrared serial interface. While it includes software for analysis and interpretation, it is integrated into a physical device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Function: The CARDIOLINE AR 600, AR 1200, and AR 2100 are electrocardiographs. They detect and record the electrical activity of the heart using electrodes placed on the body surface. This is a non-invasive procedure and does not involve analyzing specimens taken from the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use is for routine ECG recording and providing diagnostic support to the physician based on the electrical signals of the heart. This is consistent with the function of an electrocardiograph, not an IVD.
Therefore, while it is a medical device used for diagnostic purposes, it falls under the category of in vivo diagnostic devices rather than in vitro diagnostic devices.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
CARDIOLINE AR 600 and AR 1200 and AR 2100 are a family of electrocardiograph recorders provided with a program for automated ecg analysis and with a graphic LCD display.
The equipments are intended for use in routine ecg recording in physician practice and/or hospital. The electrical heart activity is detected by means of two or more electrocardiograph electrodes and is recorded on thermal paper.
Intended use for non interpretive applications covers the full range of patient population with no limitations with respect to age, sex and race of the patient.
The interpretation program is intended to provide a diagnostic support to the physician for the ecg evaluation on rhythm and morphology.
Interpretation Statements must be overviewed and approved by trained Physician's. Interpretation statements just represent a partial qualitative and quantitative information of the general patient cardiovascular condition: no therapy or drugs can be subministrated based solely on Interpretation statements.
The equipments are intended to be used by trained medical personnel or physician's.

Dear Mr. Castelli:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally 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) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). 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 (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050. This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 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), please contact the Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0295.
