Intended Use
The intended use of the ScottCare Genesis ECP device is to provide external counterpulsation (ECP) therapy, and is indicated for use in the treatment of stable or unstable angina pectoris, congestive heart failure, cardiogenic shock, and acute myocardial infarction.
Device Description
The "Genesis" is a non-invasive medical device for performing external, sequential counterpulsation. It is a microprocessor-controlled system that inflates and deflates three pairs of air cuffs, which compress vascular beds in the muscles of the calves, thighs, and buttocks to achieve the desired therapy. The microprocessor's primary function is to serve as an R-wave detector, calculate the R-wave rate (heart rate), and deliver triggering signals to actuate valves that allow the cuffs to be filled during the diastolic period and then emptied prior to systole. The secondary function of the microprocessor is to output, through a serial port, information necessary for displaying patient treatment data on a video monitor. This data allows a trained operator to finetune the inflation/deflation signals to optimize a patient's diastolic augmentation. The cuffs are snugly wrapped around the patient's calves, thighs, and buttocks to allow compression of vascular beds in these body areas. To prevent skin irritation the patient is typically dressed in tight fitting, stretchable treatment pants prior to being fitted with the cuffs. As diastole begins, the cuffs inflate sequentially proceeding from the calves, to the thighs, to the buttocks, with the inflation sequence taking a total of approximately 200ms. The inflation sequence generates and drives an arterial counter pulsation wave creating an increase in coronary perfusion pressure and coronary blood flow. The compression sequence also increases venous return, which increases stroke volume and cardiac output. At the end of diastole, and just before the next QRS complex, the cuffs are evacuated simultaneously over a period of approximately 120ms. The course of treatment is typically 35 1-hour treatments administered 5 days a week. The device automatically stops compression of the cuffs and releases all pressure in the cuffs upon completion of the pre-set treatment timer. The system consists of two major assemblies: 1) the patient bed that houses the electronic pneumatic controls / valves, compressor / vacuum pump and associated power supplies and 2) the operator's console that consists of an all-in-one computer/monitor, computer peripherals (keyboard and pointing device) and a control panel.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description details a microprocessor-controlled system for timing and triggering based on R-wave detection and heart rate calculation. While it uses a microprocessor and allows for operator fine-tuning, there is no mention of AI or ML algorithms for learning, adaptation, or complex pattern recognition beyond basic signal processing and timing.

Yes
The device description clearly states its intended use is to provide external counterpulsation (ECP) therapy for the treatment of various medical conditions, including stable or unstable angina pectoris, congestive heart failure, cardiogenic shock, and acute myocardial infarction. The mechanism of action involves the physical compression of vascular beds to augment blood flow and improve cardiac function, which are direct therapeutic interventions.

No

Explanation: The device description states its function is to perform external, sequential counterpulsation therapy by inflating and deflating air cuffs to compress vascular beds. While it monitors heart rate and displays patient treatment data, its primary purpose is therapeutic, not diagnostic.

No

The device description clearly outlines hardware components including a patient bed housing electronic pneumatic controls, valves, compressor/vacuum pump, and an operator's console with a computer/monitor and peripherals. While software is involved in control and data display, it is integral to a larger hardware system.

Based on the provided information, the ScottCare Genesis ECP device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body (in vitro).
  • Genesis ECP Function: The Genesis ECP device is a therapeutic device that applies external pressure to the patient's body (calves, thighs, and buttocks) to improve blood flow. It is a non-invasive treatment performed on the patient's body.
  • Lack of Specimen Analysis: The description does not mention the device analyzing any biological specimens. Its function is based on physical manipulation of the body and monitoring physiological signals (like the R-wave).

Therefore, the ScottCare Genesis ECP device falls under the category of a therapeutic medical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

As the above chart demonstrates, the Genesis model ECP bed is substantially equivalent to the NCP-1 ECP bed that was cleared on December 12, 2002. Basic control functions remain unchanged and there are no significant technological changes to the device. The changes are predominantly cosmetic in nature and include:

  • Changing from a CRT display screen to a flat panel LCD computer type display. .
  • . Elimination of the large roll-around control console (that housed the CRT display) and utilize a pole style, roll around to mount the all-in-one computer /LCD display and control panel.
  • Changing the construction of the bed base from compressed wood to aluminum ● and present a smaller overall footprint.
  • Changing the control panel switches from latching, push-button style to a . momentary, membrane style. To support this change a minor software (firmware) change was required.
  • Provision for 50Hz operation where required. .
  • Simplification of the internal power supply to use switching, medical grade power . supplies instead of discrete step down / rectification.
  • Emergency relief valves (normally open) were changed to operate at 24V DC . instead of at 120V AC. The control mechanism, construction and overall action of the valves remain unchanged. Lower voltage valve standardizes the control voltage within the device to a safer, 24V DC level.

The intended use of the modified device, as described in its labeling, has not changed as a result of these modifications. No technologically significant changes have occurred.

Conclusion:

Appropriate testing was conducted in accordance with established design control procedures. Testing demonstrated that the device functioned as designed and that the device was in compliance with IEC60601 Medical Device Safety and EMC testing requirements. The modified device, which is to be marketed as the "ScottCare Genesis" ECP Treatment device, is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

Dear Mr. Clines:

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.
