No
The summary describes a device for recording and storing heart rhythm signals and software for managing this data. There is no mention of AI or ML being used for analysis, interpretation, or any other function. The focus is on data acquisition, storage, and physician review.
No
The device is intended to record, store, and transfer heart rhythm signals and waveforms for diagnostic purposes, not for providing therapy or treatment.
No
The device is intended to record, store, and transfer single-channel heart rhythm signals and display heart rhythm waveforms for users under a physician's care. However, the "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "The HeartCheck™ Pen Handheld device along with GEMS Home software is not intended to substitute a hospital diagnostic ECG device." While it collects data for review by healthcare professionals, it is not presented as a standalone diagnostic tool.
No
The device description explicitly states that the HeartCheck™ Pen is a handheld device with hardware components including a signal input unit, signal amplify unit, CPU, Display unit, power unit, and storage chip. While it uses software (GEMS Home) for data management, it is not solely software.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
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 HeartCheck™ Pen Handheld device records and stores Heart Rhythm signals. This is a physiological measurement taken directly from the body, not a test performed on a sample taken from the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for recording, storing, and transferring single channel Heart Rhythm signals and displaying Heart Rhythm waveforms (under physician's care). This aligns with monitoring physiological activity, not analyzing biological samples.
Therefore, the HeartCheck™ Pen Handheld device falls under the category of a physiological monitoring device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The HeartCheck™ Pen Handheld device with GEMS Home software is an over-thecounter device intended to record, store, transfer single channel Heart Rhythm signals and, for users under a physician's care, display Heart Rhythm waveforms. The HeartCheck™ Pen Handheld device along with GEMS Home software is not intended to substitute a hospital diagnostic ECG device. The device is not intended for simultaneously recording and transmitting a user's Heart Rhythm. Users with an implanted pacemaker or a defibrillator are not recommended to use this device. GEMS Home is a simple software user interface for managing Heart Rhythm recordings and associated data.

Device Description
The applicant device of HeartCheck Pen is a handheld device. which can record cardiac event data. As delivered to the end user. Heart Rhythm recordings are made on the HeartCheck™ Pen Heart Rhythm device and uploaded to GEMS Home, but the Heart Rhythm Waveform itself is not visible to or accessible by the user. GEMS Home allows the user to manage their personal information, their Heart Rhythm recordings and upload their Heart Rhythm recordings for Physician Review. Once the end user is under the guidance of a qualified Health Care Professional (e.g. Physician. Trained Technician. etc.), the Health Care Professional can use the access-controlled "Physician Review" section of the existing CardioComm Solutions Rx Only devices to initiate a process to "unlock" the GEMS Home Software and the HeartCheck™ Pen Heart Rhythm device to allow the end user to see their Heart Rhythm Waveforms in the GEMS Home software and on the device. Access to the "Physician Review" component of the existing CardioComm Solutions Rx Only devices is restricted to Health Care Professionals. The "unlock" feature is not accessible to anyone other than qualified Health Care Professionals and can only be initiated once the user has uploaded their collected HR Data from the GEMS Home.
The Heart Rhythm Monitor is made up of signal input unit, signal amplify unit. CPU. Display unit, power unit and storage chip. They are all in one PCB that is designed and made by our manufacturing partner Beijing Choice Electronic Technologies.
The HeartCheck™ Pen Heart Rhythm device is activated by the user whenever symptoms are experienced. The recorded data serves as reliable evidence and can be later uploaded for review by qualified Health Care Professionals for confirmation of these symptoms.
The applicant device has a "data upload" function which is controlled by hardware; it can transmit the data measured by the device to a computer via the USB port. The "GEMS Home" software is used to store and review the data collected by the HeartCheck Pen Heart Rhythm Monitor. The "GEMS Home" software is installed onto the computer from a CD ROM by the user. The "GEMS Home" software CD ROM is an accessory of the applicant device.
The applicant device has low battery voltage indication function. 2 AAA batteries supply the power for the monitor.
