The document describes a device that records and transmits ECG data, with an "Arrhythmia Detection Algorithm". While this algorithm performs analysis, there is no mention of AI, ML, or any related concepts in the provided text. The focus is on data capture, storage, and transmission, and a standard algorithm for detection.
No
The device is indicated for diagnostic evaluation of transient cardiac symptoms and does not provide therapy.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is "indicated for diagnostic evaluation."
No
The device description explicitly states it is a physical device ("compact sized case") with hardware components (solid state non-volatile memory, two-wire lead set, buttons) and mentions "Hardware Verification and Validation" in the performance studies summary.
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 KOH Express AF cardiac event recorder directly acquires and records electrical signals from the patient's body (ECG) through external leads. It does not analyze samples taken from the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use is for the diagnostic evaluation of transient cardiac symptoms by recording the heart's electrical activity in vivo.
Therefore, while it is a diagnostic device, it operates in vivo (within the living body) rather than in vitro (in a test tube or laboratory setting).

Intended Use / Indications for Use

- . Dizziness
- Palpitations .
- . Syncope
- Chest pain .

Device Description
The KOH Express AF cardiac event recorder ("KOH" or "KOH Express AF" in short) is designed for the diagnostic evaluation of transient cardiac symptoms. The KOH is capable of storing up to 10 minutes of ECG recordings in solid state non-volatile memory. The device uses a two-wire lead set for single channel ECG acquisition. Using looping memory, the device captures ECG data; both before and after the patient experiences a cardiac symptom through auto-recording, or manually after the patient presses the RECORD button. ECG events are transmitted later in the form of an FM-modulated acoustic tone, when the SEND button is depressed. The device is configured in a compact sized case.

Special 510(k) for KOH Express AF cardiac event recorder Section 7: 510(k) Summary
Indications for Use:
This device is indicated for diagnostic evaluation of patients who experience transient symptoms such as:
- Dizziness .
- . Palpitations
- Syncope .
- Chest pain .
Contraindications for use:
Warning:
This device is contraindicated for use in combination with external cardiac defibrillators or high frequency surgical equipment. Disconnect the patient leads from the electrodes prior to performing external defibrillation or using electrosurgical equipment.
There are no known safety hazards connected with the use and operation of a cardiac pacemaker or any electrical cardiac stimulator and the KOH Express AF cardiac event recorder.
Summary of the Technological Characteristics / Principles of Operation
The principles of operation and inputs/outputs of the modified device (KOH Express AF cardiac event recorder) are the same or substantially equivalent to those of the predicate devices. The KOH Express AF cardiac event recorder device is comprised of an ECG sensor with a 2-wire ECG cable and electrodes. The sensor is carried by the patient and is snapped into two electrodes by using the ECG cable.
The KOH Express AF cardiac event recorder device records the ECG data and analyzes it for arrhythmias. The following arrhythmias are automatically detected by the KOH Express AF cardiac event recorder:
-
- Tachycardia
-
- Bradycardia
-
- Atrial Fibrillation
The KOH Express AF device also supports manual recording of ECG data by the patient by means of pressing the "RECORD" button. The KOH Express AF stores the ECG data in a cyclic nonvolatile ("Flash") memory. When an event is automatically or manually triggered, the ECG data since the pre-event time until the post-event time is copied into the event buffer. The event buffer can hold up 16 events with total time of up to 10 minutes of ECG data.
When the user is near a telephone, the sensor can transmit to the Monitoring Center the ECG data of the events that are stored using an FM modulation acoustic protocol.
Non-clinical performance data for the KOH Express AF device:
The modified KOH Express AF device has been subjected to extensive verification / validation testing. Final testing of the system included various performance tests and software validation tests designed to ensure that the device meets all of its functional and performance requirements and is fit for its intended use. The following list summarizes the testing performed on the device:
- Software Verification and Validation .
- Software Functional Unit Verification 0
- System Level Software Validation ಂ
- Arrhythmia Detection Algorithm Performance Validation 0
