Intended Use
Curvus Sensor - Recorder: Curvus Regular Holter is intended to record single lead (channel) surface ECG data and accelerometer data from ambulatory patients (Holter) for a period of up to 72 hours (3 days). Recorded ECG data are intended to be analyzed by Curvus Analyzer. The Sensor and Recorder are intended for use outside of the hospital. Curvus software suite: Curvus Examiner is intended to program set up and closure of examination, while Curvus Analyzer analyzes the retrieved data from the examination. The system is intended to be used by trained operators under the direct supervision of a trained Health Care Practitioner in a hospital or a clinic environment.
Device Description
The Curvus Regular Holter System is a wireless mobile system for collecting a 1-lead electrocardiogram from a patient and to present the results to medical personnel such as cardiologists with the purpose to assist them to diagnose arrhythmias (heart rhythm irregularities). The Curvus Regular Holter System consists of a set of functional units including software: - Curvus ECG Sensor to be applied to the patient's chest to measure ECG signal . - Curvus ECG Recorder a hand-held device to store monitored data . - Curvus ECG Examiner and Curvus ECG Analyzer software programs to be used by . medical staff for setup and closure of patient examination and for diagnostic evaluation.
More Information

Not Found

No
The document does not mention AI, ML, or related terms, and the description of the device and its function focuses on standard ECG recording and analysis.

No
The device is intended to record ECG data for diagnostic purposes (to assist in diagnosing arrhythmias), not to provide treatment or therapy.

Yes
The "Intended Use" states that recorded ECG data are "intended to be analyzed by Curvus Analyzer," and the "Device Description" clarifies that the system's purpose is "to assist them to diagnose arrhythmias (heart rhythm irregularities)." This indicates its role in a diagnostic process.

No

The device description explicitly states that the system consists of functional units including hardware components: "Curvus ECG Sensor to be applied to the patient's chest to measure ECG signal" and "Curvus ECG Recorder a hand-held device to store monitored data". While it includes software, it is not solely software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVDs are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. The Curvus Regular Holter System directly measures the electrical activity of the heart (ECG) from the patient's chest. It does not analyze blood, urine, tissue, or other bodily fluids or substances.
  • The intended use is to record and analyze ECG data for the diagnosis of arrhythmias. This is a physiological measurement and analysis, not an in vitro examination of a specimen.

The device is a medical device used for physiological monitoring and diagnostic assistance, but it does not fit the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear Ms. Bundy:

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 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.
