Intended Use
The RhythmView™ Workstation is a computerized system that assists in the diagnosis of complex cardiac arrhythmias. The RhythmView™M Workstation is used to analyze electrogram and electrocardiogram signals and display them in a visual format.
Device Description
The RhythmView is comprised of these major components, 1. RhythmView hardware – Computer, monitor, keyboard, and mouse 2. RhythmView Software – Software pre-installed The RhythmView Workstation takes electrical signals collected from multi-polar electrophysiology catheters and outputs a graphic display that assists in the diagnosis of cardiac arrhythmias.
More Information

No
The summary describes a computerized system for analyzing electrogram and electrocardiogram signals and displaying them visually. It mentions software but does not include any terms or descriptions indicative of AI or ML, such as "AI," "ML," "deep learning," "neural network," or descriptions of training/test sets for such algorithms. The performance studies focus on bench testing and comparison to predicate devices without mentioning AI/ML-specific validation metrics.

No
Explanation: The device is described as assisting in the diagnosis of cardiac arrhythmias by analyzing and displaying electrogram and electrocardiogram signals. It does not perform any direct therapeutic action.

Yes

Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "The RhythmView™ Workstation is a computerized system that assists in the diagnosis of complex cardiac arrhythmias." Additionally, the "Device Description" mentions that it "outputs a graphic display that assists in the diagnosis of cardiac arrhythmias."

No

The device description explicitly states that the RhythmView is comprised of both hardware (computer, monitor, keyboard, mouse) and software.

Based on the provided information, the RhythmView™ Workstation is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).

Here's why:

  • IVDs analyze samples taken from the human body. The RhythmView Workstation analyzes electrical signals collected from electrophysiology catheters, which are inserted into the body. It's analyzing signals within the body, not a sample taken from the body.
  • The intended use is to assist in the diagnosis of cardiac arrhythmias by analyzing electrogram and electrocardiogram signals. This is a direct analysis of physiological signals, not an analysis of a biological sample like blood, urine, or tissue.

The device is clearly focused on analyzing electrical activity within the heart, which falls under the category of a medical device used for physiological monitoring and analysis, not an IVD.
