Intended Use
Dimetek Micro Ambulatory ECG Recorder is intended for ECG detecting, recording and playback by adult patients who are concerned about their heart rhythm. It is used both in the clinics and home care environment. User can choose the monitor mode and event mode to record the ECG data when feeling any heart condition occur. The device allows user to record their ECG data in TF card and playback the data for analysis by a physician or those knowledgeable about ECG morphology, rhythm, and arrhythmia. The ECG data in TF card can be downloaded to PC, and be read by ECG viewer software. The device is NOT designed or intended for medical diagnosis.
Device Description
The recorder is a handhold, light weight, battery-operated physiological device designed for recording ECG data. For its small size, it may be used in a clinical or non-clinical setting to record physiological signal waveforms while the patient is unattended; the device provides Real-time display function. The device has a resolution of 24-bits with a fundamental sampling frequency of 100, 200, or 400 SPS and is stored un-compressed on a removable TF card. The sampling rate, display rate, display amplitude could be defined through control interface; meanwhile, heart rate would also be measured. The Micro Ambulatory ECG Recorder is used for self-testing before diagnosis and is not recommended for users with implanted pacemakers or defibrillators. It works with a single lead, and has 4 testing modes: - a) Hand contact mode, place your left and right index fingers are touching the touc pads integrated on the device. - b) Leg contact mode, place your index finger on one electrode of the device and place your leg on the other electrode. - c) Chest contact mode, place your right index finger on the right touch pad of and place left touch pad on your chest. - d) Leadwire mode, using leadwires and two disposable electrodes. Paste the disposable electrodes on your body and connect them to the device through the lead wire cable. The measurement data can be stored in the TF card, and then you can download to PC, and read the ECG by ECG Viewer software. The device is NOT designed or intended for medical diagnosis.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a device for recording and storing ECG data for later analysis by a physician. There is no mention of automated analysis, pattern recognition, or any technology that would typically involve AI/ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" section explicitly states "Not Found".

No

Explanation: The device is designed for ECG detection, recording, and playback for analysis by healthcare professionals, but it explicitly states that it is "NOT designed or intended for medical diagnosis" and is used for "self-testing before diagnosis." This indicates it's a diagnostic or monitoring tool, not a therapeutic one that provides treatment.

No

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" and "Device Description" sections explicitly state: "The device is NOT designed or intended for medical diagnosis." It is intended for recording ECG data for later analysis by a physician.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical, handhold, battery-operated physiological device with touch pads and the ability to use leadwires and disposable electrodes for ECG recording. While it includes software for viewing the data, the core medical device is hardware.

Based on the provided information, the Dimetek Micro Ambulatory ECG Recorder is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The Dimetek Micro Ambulatory ECG Recorder records electrical activity of the heart (ECG) directly from the patient's body through skin contact or electrodes. It does not analyze samples taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for ECG detection, recording, and playback for adult patients concerned about their heart rhythm. While the data can be analyzed by a physician for potential diagnosis, the device itself is explicitly stated as NOT designed or intended for medical diagnosis.
  • Device Description: The description reinforces that it's a physiological device for recording ECG data from the patient.

Therefore, the device falls under the category of a physiological monitoring device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear Mr. Devine:

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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

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.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
