Intended Use
The Powerheart AED G3 and the Powerheart AED G3 Automatic devices are intended to be used by personnel who have been trained in its operation. The user should be qualified by training in basic life support or other physicianauthorized emergency medical response. The device is indicated for emergency treatment of victims exhibiting symptoms of sudden cardiac arrest who are unresponsive and not breathing. Postresuscitation, if the victim is breathing, the AED should be left attached to allow for acquisition and detection of ECG rhythm. If a shockable ventricular tachyarrhythmia recurs, the device will charge automatically and advise the operator to deliver therapy (G3) or automatically deliver the charge (G3 Automatic). When the patient is a child or infant up to 8 years of age, or up to 55 lbs (25kg), the device should be used with the Model 9730 Pediatric Attenuated Defibrillation Electrodes. The therapy should not be delayed to determine the patient's exact age or weight.
Device Description
The Powerheart® AED G3 and G3 Automatic are portable, battery operated, automated external defibrillators (AED). After applying the AED's electrodes (pads) to the patient's bare chest, the AED automatically analyzes the patient's electrocardiogram (ECG) and advises the operator to press the button and deliver a shock if needed. The AED uses one button and guides the operator through the rescue using a combination of voice prompts, audible alerts, and visible indicators. For the Powerheart AED G3 Automatic, the AED automatically delivers a shock if needed. The Cardiac Science G3 AEDs may be used in conjunction with an adaptor cable that allows the use of AAMI DF-80 compliant electrodes other than the Cardiac Science brand. This adaptor cable is provided as an accessory to the Cardiac Science AEDs.
More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes standard AED functionality involving ECG analysis and shock delivery based on pre-defined algorithms, with no mention of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is an automated external defibrillator (AED) intended for emergency treatment of sudden cardiac arrest, which directly delivers therapy (electrical shock) to correct heart rhythm.

Yes
The device analyzes the patient's electrocardiogram (ECG) to determine if a shock is needed, and also monitors the ECG rhythm post-resuscitation, which are diagnostic functions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "portable, battery operated, automated external defibrillator (AED)" and mentions hardware components like electrodes (pads) and an adaptor cable. This indicates it is a physical medical device with integrated software, not a software-only device.

Based on the provided information, this device 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.
  • Device Function: The Powerheart AED G3 and G3 Automatic are designed to analyze the patient's electrocardiogram (ECG) and deliver an electrical shock to treat sudden cardiac arrest. This is a direct intervention on the patient's body, not a test performed on a sample outside the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for the "emergency treatment of victims exhibiting symptoms of sudden cardiac arrest." This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the device's ability to analyze ECG and deliver a shock, not on analyzing bodily fluids or tissues.

Therefore, the Powerheart AED G3 and G3 Automatic fall under the category of therapeutic medical devices, not in vitro diagnostic devices.

§ 870.5310 Automated external defibrillator system.

(a)
Identification. An automated external defibrillator (AED) system consists of an AED and those accessories necessary for the AED to detect and interpret an electrocardiogram and deliver an electrical shock (e.g., battery, pad electrode, adapter, and hardware key for pediatric use). An AED system analyzes the patient's electrocardiogram, interprets the cardiac rhythm, and automatically delivers an electrical shock (fully automated AED), or advises the user to deliver the shock (semi-automated or shock advisory AED) to treat ventricular fibrillation or pulseless ventricular tachycardia.(b)
Classification. Class III (premarket approval)(c)
Date PMA or notice of completion of PDP is required. A PMA will be required to be submitted to the Food and Drug Administration by April 29, 2015, for any AED that was in commercial distribution before May 28, 1976, or that has, by April 29, 2015, been found to be substantially equivalent to any AED that was in commercial distribution before May 28, 1976. A PMA will be required to be submitted to the Food and Drug Administration by April 29, 2015, for any AED accessory described in paragraph (a) that was in commercial distribution before May 28, 1976, or that has, by April 29, 2015, been found to be substantially equivalent to any AED accessory described in paragraph (a) that was in commercial distribution before May 28, 1976. Any other AED and AED accessory described in paragraph (a), shall have an approved PMA or declared completed PDP in effect before being placed in commercial distribution.

Conclusion:

Science brand. This adaptor cable is provided as an accessory to the Cardiac Science AEDs.

The Powerheart AED G3 and the Powerheart AED G3 Automatic devices are intended to be used by personnel who have been trained in its operation. The user should be qualified by training in basic life support or other physician-authorized emergency medical response.

The device is indicated for emergency treatment of victims exhibiting symptoms of sudden cardiac arrest who are unresponsive and not breathing. Post-resuscitation, if the victim is breathing, the AED should be left attached to allow for acquisition and detection of ECG rhythm. If a shockable ventricular tachyarrhythmia recurs, the device will change automatically and advise the operator to deliver therapy (G3) or automatically deliver the charge (G3 Automatic).

When the patient is a child or infant up to 8 years of age, or up to 55 lbs (25kg), the device should be used with the Model 9730 Pediatric Attenuated Defibrillation Electrodes. The therapy should not be delayed to determine the patient's exact age or weight.

Representative samples of the device and adapter cables were tested in accordance with the system, safety, functional and performance specifications. All samples successfully passed.

Based on the results of the testing described above, it is concluded that the modifications to the Powerheart AED do not raise any new questions regarding the safety or effectiveness as compared with the predicate device. The Cardiac Science, Inc. Powerheart AED is substantially equivalent to the Powerheart AED cleared in K052161 and FirstSave STAR Biphasic AED cleared in K010214 in terms of indications for use, features and functions.
