No reference devices were used in this submission
Yes
The device name "ZywieAI Software Library" explicitly includes "AI", and the "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" section confirms this.
No
The device is described as a software library for analyzing historic ambulatory ECG data for arrhythmia assessment. It performs analysis and interpretation but does not provide any form of therapy or treatment.
Yes
The device is explicitly stated to support "analyzing data recorded in compatible formats from any device used for the arrhythmia diagnostics" and provides "ECG signal processing and analysis on a beat by beat basis, QRS Detection, Non-paced Arrhythmia Interpretation, PAC, Non-paced Heart Rate determination, Pause, Tachycardia, Bradycardia, Atrial Flutter/Fibrillation, Ventricular Flutter/Fibrillation, Ventricular Ectopic Beat detection, Ventricular Tachycardia, AV Conduction Block, ST Change Episode detection, and Non-paced Ventricular Arrhythmia calls." These functions are all part of the diagnostic process for cardiac arrhythmias.
Yes
The device is described as a "Software Library" and an "object library" which is a collection of callable functions. It processes input ECG signals from a file and outputs analysis to a file. It is accessed via API or web service calls. The description explicitly states it is compiled and delivered to device manufacturers for integration into their application software, indicating it is a software component rather than a complete hardware device.
Based on the provided information, the ZywieAI Software Library is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- ZywieAI Software Library's Function: The ZywieAI Software Library analyzes historic ambulatory ECG data. ECG data is an electrical signal recorded from the body's surface, not a specimen derived from within the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for the "assessment of arrhythmias using historic ambulatory ECG data." This is a direct analysis of a physiological signal, not a laboratory test on a biological sample.
Therefore, the ZywieAI Software Library falls under the category of a medical device that analyzes physiological signals, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
No
The letter does not state that the FDA has reviewed and approved or cleared a PCCP for this specific device.
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The ZywieAI Software Library is intended for use by qualified medical professionals for the assessment of arrhythmias using historic ambulatory ECG data. The product supports downloading and analyzing data recorded in compatible formats from any device used for the arrhythmia diagnostics such as Holter, Event Monitor, MCT (Mobile Cardio Telemetry), or other similar devices when assessment of the rhythm is necessary. The ZywieAI Software Library can also be electronically interfaced, and perform analysis with data transferred from other computer based ECG systems, such as ECG management system. The software library provides ECG signal processing and analysis on a beat by beat basis, QRS Detection, Non-paced Arrhythmia Interpretation, PAC (Premature Atrial Contraction), Non-paced Heart Rate determination, Pause, Tachycardia, Bradycardia, Atrial Flutter/Fibrillation, Ventricular Flutter/Fibrillation, Ventricular Ectopic Beat detection, Ventricular Tachycardia, AV (Atrioventricular) Conduction Block, ST Change Episode detection, and Non-paced Ventricular Arrhythmia calls.
The product can be integrated into computerized ECG monitoring devices. In this case the medical device manufacturer will identify the indication for use depending on the application of their device.
The product cannot be used with potentially life-threatening arrhythmias which require inpatient monitoring.
Verification of the output from ZywieAI Software is the responsibility of a trained healthcare professional or physician.
The ZywieAI Software Library is used for analyzing ECG data for adult patient population.

Device Description
The ZywieAI Software Library is an "object library". An object library is a collection of callable functions that have been compiled (or assembled) into machine code or Interactive Data Language (IDL) code for the computer on which they execute.
The basic software application reads the input ECG signals from a file into computer memory and passes that data to ZywieAI Software Library for analyzing, annotating, and creating output. This output is sent back to the basic software application where the output is written to a file. The read input signal may invoke some or all of the functions in the object library. An application program could be written to write input data to a file using web services. The same or a different application program could be written to consume the output file using web services.
The ZywieAI Software Library provides ECG signal processing, ORS Detection, Non-paced Arrhythmia Interpretation, PAC, Non-paced Heart Rate determination, Pause, Tachycardia, Bradycardia, Atrial Flutter/Fibrillation, Ventricular Flutter/Fibrillation, Ventricular Ectopic Beat detection, Ventricular Tachycardia, AV Conduction Block, ST Change Episodes detection, Non-paced Ventricular Arrhythmia calls and rhythm interpretation.
The library can be accessed through an Application Program Interface (API) as a callable function or using a web service call. This allows the library to be used as an accessory to an ECG management application or as a stand-alone product.
Zywie will compile the ZywieAI Software Library as specified by an ECG device manufacturer. An object library will be created and delivered to the device manufacturer. who can then integrate it into application software for their ECG analysis. Typically the software library is used along with ECG monitoring devices and ECG management software for patients:
- With symptoms that may be due to cardiac arrhythmias. These may include but are not limited to symptoms such as: a) dizziness or lightheadedness; b) syncope of unknown etiology in which arrhythmias are suspected or need to be excluded: and c) dyspnea (shortness of breath).
- With palpitations with or without know arrhythmias to obtain correlation of rhythm with symptoms.
- Who require monitoring effect of drugs to control ventricular rate in various atrial arrhythmias (e.g. atrial fibrillation)
- Recovering from cardiac surgery who are indicated for outpatient arrhythmia monitoring
- With diagnosed sleep disordered breathing including sleep apnea (obstructive, central) to evaluate possible nocturnal arrhythmias
- Requiring arrhythmia evaluation of etiology of stroke or transient cerebral ischemia, possibly secondary to atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter
- With co-morbid conditions such as hyperthyroidism or chronic lung disease
