No
The description focuses on the hardware (electrodes, belt, electronics, Bluetooth) and its function of transmitting ECG data. There is no mention of any algorithms, data processing beyond transmission, or terms related to AI/ML.
No
The device is described as an "electrode system" for "ECG monitoring" and "transmits ECG information." Its intended use is for "general electrocardiographic procedures," which are primarily diagnostic, providing data for a physician to interpret. While a physician's order is necessary, and it can be used for "ambulatory monitoring" and as a "screening tool to determine normal or pathologic ECG's," these functions are diagnostic and do not involve treating or ameliorating a disease or condition. The device itself does not exert any therapeutic effect.
No
The device description states that the CardioBelt™ transmits ECG information to a compatible Bluetooth enabled device. The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section indicates it is "intended for use in general electrocardiographic procedures where ECG monitoring is deemed necessary". While it collects ECG data, there is no mention of the device itself performing analysis or interpretation for diagnostic purposes. The white paper mentions it was "useful for ambulatory monitoring and as a screening tool to determine normal or pathologic ECG's", but this implies it provides the data for a physician to interpret, not that the device itself makes a diagnosis.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "reusable electrode system consisting of an electrode assembly, an elastic chest belt, and an electronics package containing a Bluetooth transceiver." This clearly indicates the presence of hardware components beyond just software.
Based on the provided information, the CardioBelt™ is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for "general electrocardiographic procedures where ECG monitoring is deemed necessary." This involves measuring electrical activity of the heart in vivo (within the living body).
- Device Description: The device is an "electrode system" that is placed on the patient's chest to acquire ECG signals. This is a direct measurement from the body.
- Lack of In Vitro Activity: IVD devices are designed to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) outside of the body to provide information about a physiological state, health, or disease. The CardioBelt™ does not process or analyze such specimens.
The CardioBelt™ is a medical device used for physiological monitoring on the patient, not for testing samples from the patient.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The CardioBelt™ is a reusable electrode system intended for use in general electrocardiographic procedures where ECG monitoring is deemed necessary and is ordered by a physician. The CardioBelt™ is compatible for use with Bluetooth equipped ECG instruments capable of receiving Bluetooth™ Serial Port Protocol.

Device Description
The Monebo CardioBelt™ is a reusable electrode system consisting of an electrode assembly, an elastic chest belt, and an electronics package containing a Bluetooth transceiver. The CardioBelt™ electrodes are positioned against the patient's skin with light pressure, using the elastic chest belt. The CardioBelt™ is designed to be used without electrolytic gels and without adhesives on unprepared skin; that is without the requirements for shaving, abrading, or other skin preparation. The CardioBelt transmits ECG information to a compatible Bluetooth enabled device. The CardioBelt contains a class II Bluetooth radio with a range of approximately 30 feet (spherical range). The CardioBelt™ is powered by a rechargeable lithium ion battery. The electronics package must be physically separated from the electrode belt to charge the battery.
