Intended Use
The CardioSen'C device is intended to condition an electrocardiographic signal so that it can be transmitted acoustically via telephone and/or digitally over cellular network to a remote location. The CardioSen'C device is designed to be used by a patient to transmit a 12 lead ECG and rhythm strip in real-time to a physician's office, hospital or other medical receiving center.
Device Description
The CardioSen'C is a personal, battery powered, hand-held personal ECG transmitter, enabling an individual to immediately transmit a 12-lead ECG and a rhythm strip from a remote location, to a physician's office, hospital or monitoring center. The ECG data can be transmitted in real time via two communication methods. The CardioSen'C produces an ECG frequency modulated acoustical tone that can be coupled with and transmitted by a standard or a cellular telephone. The ECG data can also be transmitted digitally through the cellular network. Either one of these two transmissions methods permits the transfer of a 12-lead ECG and rhythm strip to the medical professional capable of interpreting the data.
More Information

No
The description focuses on signal conditioning and transmission, with no mention of AI/ML for analysis or interpretation.

No.
The device is used to transmit an ECG signal for diagnostic interpretation, not to treat a condition.

No

The device is described as an ECG transmitter that conditions and transmits an electrocardiographic signal. It is intended to send real-time ECG data to a medical professional for interpretation, rather than performing the diagnosis itself. The performance studies mention compliance with "ANSI/AAMI EC11-1991 (Diagnostic Electrocardiographic Devices)", but the device's function is purely data transmission, enabling diagnosis by a professional.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "personal, battery powered, hand-held personal ECG transmitter," indicating it is a physical hardware device, not solely software.

Based on the provided information, the CardioSen'C device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).

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.
  • CardioSen'C Function: The CardioSen'C device conditions and transmits an electrocardiographic signal (ECG). An ECG is a recording of the electrical activity of the heart, which is obtained directly from the body surface using electrodes. It does not involve the analysis of specimens taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to transmit the ECG signal to a remote location for interpretation by a medical professional. This is a diagnostic tool that works in vivo (within the living body) by capturing electrical signals, not in vitro (in glass/outside the body) by analyzing biological samples.
  • Device Description: The description clearly states it's a "personal, battery powered, hand-held personal ECG transmitter." This aligns with a device that interacts with the body to capture a physiological signal.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies mentioned are related to standards for electrocardiographic devices and safety, not IVD-specific studies.
  • Predicate Devices: The predicate devices listed are also ECG transmitters/recorders, not IVD devices.

In summary, the CardioSen'C device is a medical device used for capturing and transmitting physiological data (ECG) directly from the patient's body. This falls under the category of in vivo diagnostic devices, not in vitro diagnostic devices.

Dear Mr. Levy:

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.
