No
The summary describes automated arrhythmia detection algorithms but does not mention the use of AI or ML techniques in their implementation. The performance studies focus on the accuracy of the detection algorithms and physical device characteristics, not on the training or validation of AI/ML models.
No.
The device is described as an "implantable patient-activated and automatically-activated monitoring system that records subcutaneous ECG". Its primary functions are to monitor and record cardiac events and arrhythmias, not to treat them.
Yes
The device is designed to monitor and record cardiac events, such as arrhythmias, and provide diagnostic information to help identify the presence or absence of cardiac conditions like atrial fibrillation. The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states its purpose is for "monitoring system that records subcutaneous ECG" and is "indicated in the following cases: Patients with clinical syndromes or situations at increased risk of cardiac arrhythmias. Patients who experience transient symptoms such as dizziness, palpitation, syncope and chest pain, that may suggest a cardiac arrhythmia." This clearly indicates its role in diagnosing cardiac issues.
No
The device description clearly outlines hardware components including an implantable device (Reveal LINQ ICM), implant tools (Incision Tool, Insertion Tool), and a hand-held telemetry device (Reveal Patient Assistant).
Based on the provided information, this device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
Here's why:
- IVDs analyze samples taken from the body. The Reveal LINQ Insertable Cardiac Monitor is an implantable device that records subcutaneous ECG within the patient's body. It does not analyze samples like blood, urine, or tissue.
- The device monitors physiological signals. The primary function is to record and detect cardiac arrhythmias based on electrical signals from the heart, not to perform tests on biological specimens.
The device is a medical device for monitoring physiological parameters, specifically cardiac activity.

Device Description
The Reveal LINQ Model LNQ11 Insertable Cardiac Monitors (ICM) is designed to automatically record the occurrence of arrhythmias in a patient. Arrhythmia may be classified as atrial tachyarrhythmia/atrial fibrillation (AT/AF), bradyarrhythmia, pause, or (fast) ventricular tachyarrhythmia. The Reveal LINQ ICM provides storage of ECG and Marker Channel during patient-activated and automatically-detected (auto-activated) events. Auto activation may help to detect abnormal heart rhythms in patients who may not activate/trigger the ICM.
The Reveal LINO model LNO11 is a small, leadless device that is typically implanted under the skin, in the chest. Two electrodes on the body of the device continuously monitor the patient's subcutaneous ECG.
A set of tools are provided with the Reveal LINQ ICM to create the small incision in the skin and to easily form a tight pocket and insert the ICM into the shallow subcutaneous pocket. There are two implant tools: the Incision Tool, used to make a small incision through the patient's skin; and the Insertion Tool, used to insert the device through the incision and into the patient's body at the desired location.
The Reveal Patient Assistant Model 9538 is a hand-held, battery-operated telemetry devices The Patient Assistant activates the data management features in the Reveal LINQ ICM to initiate recording of cardiac event data in the implanted device memory.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
XPECT Trial
Type: Validation
Follow-up: 46 hours
Sample: N = 247
Device: Reveal XT
Primary Objectives: To assess whether the AF detection algorithm reliably detected the presence or absence of AF. The XPECT trial utilized a specialized Holter to record the accuracy of the AF algorithm.
Results: The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value for identifying patients with any AF were 96.1%, 85.4%, 79.3%, and 97.4%, respectively. Overall accuracy reported for detecting AF was 98.5% for the Reveal XT ICM.
AIM Study
Type: Prospective, multicenter, feasibility
Follow-Up: Acute
Sample: N= 41
Device: Reveal LINQ Profile Force Probe
Primary Objectives: To characterize the insertion force based on various disease states and body types.
Results: The insertion force of a medical device implant is higher in males than females and may exceed the limit of 5 pounds of force. This data contributed to development of Insertion Tool.
MapReveal
Type: Prospective, multicenter, feasibility
Follow-up: 24 hours to > 1 month
Sample: N = 42
Device: Reveal DX/XT
Primary Objectives: To assess the signal amplitude at the recommended location of V2V3, 45 degrees. This study was designed to collect 24 hour ambulatory surface ECG mapping data and acute subcutaneous ECG data with electrode spacing shorter than that of the Reveal DX/XT devices.
Results: The recommended location offered acceptable R-wave amplitude when selected without mapping.
Subcutaneous Implant Migration (SubQ-IM)
Type: Prospective, multicenter, randomized feasibility
Follow-up: 12 weeks
Sample: N= 40 healthy volunteers (1 or 2 nonfunctional device prototypes)
Device: Reveal LINQ Nonfunctional Prototype
Primary Objectives: To observe and quantify prototype migration, or lack thereof, as well as the force of device insertion.
Results: Using fluoroscopy imaging, results of this study indicated that no significant migration occurred for a device of identical weight and shape of the Reveal LINQ device. Additionally, data regarding the force measurements contributed to the development of the Insertion Tool and Subcutaneous ECG measurements contributed to the recommended "Good" and "Best" Locations.
