Intended Use

The HealthGuard-15 is a non-invasive screening device intended for use in corporate wellness facilities and in health/fitness clubs. It is not for use in medical facilities such as hospitals or doctor's offices. This device measures systolic and diastolic blood pressure, heart rate, percent body fat and weight. It is operated by the client supplied PC computer. The device is intended for users eighteen years and older.

Device Description

The HealthGuard-15 is a portable health kiosk that provides a means for measuring and tracking an individual's systolic and diastolic blood pressure, heart rate, percent body fat and weight. The HG-15 integrates two FDA market cleared devices ---- the Omron HEM-7200-Z [BP742] (K121932) for measurement of blood pressure and heart rate, and the FUTREX-6100/XL (K963271) for the estimation of the percent body fat --into a health kiosk with similar performance as the Health Check Kiosk (K063008). The HG-15 kiosk can typically be installed in corporate offices, lunch rooms or other community places so that employees can be measured as part of a corporate wellness program to track changes over time. It is not for use in hospitals or in other health care facilities. The HG-15 is delivered without the necessary PC computer. The client supplies the computer and Futrex supplies not only the HealthGuard-15 "kiosk" but also supplies the software that will be driven by the client's computer. In addition to making the measurements, the HealthGuard-15 also provides the recognized norms for systolic and diastolic blood pressure and weight. It provides a direct comparison of the user's measurements to these established norms, thereby providing education and motivation to the user. The computer/s monitor also warns the user not to start any exercise or diet program without first discussing it with their healthcare professional.

AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) Summary for the HealthGuard-15 device, which is a non-invasive screening device measuring blood pressure, heart rate, percent body fat, and weight. The information below is extracted from the provided text.

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The acceptance criteria are not explicitly stated as distinct numerical targets but are based on achieving "substantially equivalent" performance to the predicate devices. The reported device performance is compared to these predicate devices.

Measurement / CharacteristicAcceptance Criteria (Implied)Reported Device Performance
Blood PressureSubstantially equivalent to Omron HEM-7200-Z (K121932)Identical measurement range (0-299 mmHg), pulse rate (40-180 bpm), accuracy (+/-3 mmHg or 2% of reading), pulse rate accuracy (+/-5%), inflation/deflation method, and operating/storage conditions. Minor modifications (plastic exterior removed, start button replaced by computer command, cuff fabric) were shown not to affect accuracy or precision.
Percent Body FatSubstantially equivalent to FUTREX-6100/XL (K963271)Identical product code, patient population, environment of use, prescriptive use, patient connection, technology (Near-IR), prime wavelength, measurement time, limitations, data provided to user, measurement range (2-45%), accuracy (equal to hydrostatic weighing), precision (0.3%), and operating/storage conditions. Minor modifications (measurement site on triceps instead of biceps, on left arm instead of dominant arm, start button replaced by computer command) were shown not to affect accuracy or precision.
WeightSubstantially equivalent to Health Check Kiosk (K063008)The HealthGuard-15 includes weight measurement, similar to the predicate kiosk. Specific performance metrics for weight are not detailed but are implied to be equivalent.
Heart RateSubstantially equivalent to Omron HEM-7200-Z (K121932)Identical pulse rate range and accuracy as the predicate blood pressure device.
Overall Multi-measurement KioskSubstantially equivalent to Health Check Kiosk (K063008)Similar indications for use, intended population, hardware design (PC controlled, stop button), software design (automatic, oscillometric method, interactive screens), materials, cleaning materials, and components.
Safety and EMCSatisfy EMC and safety requirements for medical electrical equipmentMet IEC 60601-1-2 (EMC) and IEC 60601-2, IEC 60601-1, and ANSI/AAMI SP10 (Safety).

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

The document does not specify a separate "test set" with a defined sample size for directly evaluating the HealthGuard-15's performance against ground truth in a clinical setting. Instead, the study relies on bench performance tests to demonstrate that modifications to integrated predicate devices (Omron Hem-7200-Z and FUTREX-6100/XL) did not affect their established accuracy or precision.

  • Sample Size: Not explicitly stated for specific measurements or a general test set. The evaluation focuses on bench testing of the integrated components rather than a new clinical study with a patient cohort.
  • Data Provenance: The study does not mention country of origin or whether it was retrospective or prospective, as it primarily involves bench testing of components.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications

Not applicable. The study primarily uses bench performance tests and comparison to established predicate device specifications, not a ground truth established by medical experts for a new clinical test set. The predicate devices themselves would have undergone such validation during their original clearance.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

Not applicable, as no clinical test set requiring expert adjudication is described in the provided summary.

5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done, and Effect Size

No, a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. The device is a "screening device" that provides direct measurements (blood pressure, heart rate, body fat, weight) and does not involve human readers interpreting output that would then be compared to AI-assisted human reading.

6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done

The device itself is essentially a standalone system for taking measurements. There is no explicit mention of an "algorithm only" study in the context of comparative performance against a human or a gold standard separate from the integrated predicate devices. The device's performance is demonstrated by its components (Omron BP742 for BP/HR and FUTREX-6100/XL for body fat) which are themselves standalone measurement instruments integrated into the kiosk.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

The "ground truth" for the HealthGuard-15's performance is established by:

  • Predicate Device Specifications: The primary method is to demonstrate that the HealthGuard-15 (or its modified internal components) maintains the accuracy and precision reported for the original, legally marketed predicate devices (Omron HEM-7200-Z for blood pressure/heart rate, FUTREX-6100/XL for percent body fat).
  • Established Methods: For percent body fat, the accuracy is stated as "Equal to official method of hydrostatic weighing," which serves as a commonly accepted gold standard for body composition.
  • Bench Performance Tests: These tests confirmed that minor physical and software modifications to the integrated predicate devices did not diminish their original accuracy or precision.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

The document does not describe a separate "training set" for the HealthGuard-15. The device integrates pre-existing, FDA-cleared technologies (Omron HEM-7200-Z and FUTREX-6100/XL). These predicate devices would have had their own validation studies and, if they included machine learning components, their own training sets, but details for these are not provided for the HealthGuard-15's submission.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

Not applicable, as there is no described training set for the HealthGuard-15 itself in this summary. Any training data for the internal components would have been part of their original development and clearance, and is not detailed here.

V. Intended Use of the Device

The HealthGuard-15 ("HG-15") is a non-invasive screening device intended for use in corporate wellness facilities and in health/fitness clubs.

{4}------------------------------------------------

It is not for use in medical facilities such as hospitals or doctors' offices. This device measures systolic and diastolic blood pressure, heart rate, percent body fat and weight. It is operated by the client supplied PC computer. The device is intended for users eighteen years and older.

VI. Description of the Device

The HealthGuard-15 is a portable health kiosk that provides a means for measuring and tracking an individual's systolic and diastolic blood pressure, heart rate, percent body fat and weight. The HG-15 integrates two FDA market cleared devices ---- the Omron HEM-7200-Z [BP742] (K121932) for measurement of blood pressure and heart rate, and the FUTREX-6100/XL (K963271) for the estimation of the percent body fat --into a health kiosk with similar performance as the Health Check Kiosk (K063008).

The HG-15 kiosk can typically be installed in corporate offices, lunch rooms or other community places so that employees can be measured as part of a corporate wellness program to track changes over time. It is not for use in hospitals or in other health care facilities.

The HG-15 is delivered without the necessary PC computer. The client supplies the computer and Futrex supplies not only the HealthGuard-15 "kiosk" but also supplies the software that will be driven by the client's computer.

In addition to making the measurements, the HealthGuard-15 also provides the recognized norms for systolic and diastolic blood pressure and weight. It provides a direct comparison of the user's measurements to these established norms, thereby providing education and motivation to the user. The computer/s monitor also warns the user not to start any exercise or diet program without first discussing it with their healthcare professional.

VII. Technical Considerations

The HealthGuard-15 measures systolic and diastolic blood pressure using the standard oscillometric measurement method. The device includes a unique patented cuff mechanism suitable upper arm measurements of arm circumferences 9" to 13". When the arm is inserted in the cuff, the cuff automatically wraps around the arm similar to the way it is done in a doctor's office. The cuff is then inflated before it is gradually deflated through a series of controlled deflation steps in accordance with specification. The blood pressure measurement is controlled by the client's

{5}------------------------------------------------

computer using the Futrex supplied software. The only exception to this software control is the hardware "ABORT" red pushbutton that has override authority.

VIII. Substantial Equivalence

The HealthGuard-15 is substantially equivalent to these predicate devices:

  • As a multi-measurement kiosk: The Health Check Kiosk . (K063008)
  • For blood pressure measurements: The Omron HEM-7200-Z . (BP742) (K121932)
  • . For body fat measurements: the FUTREX-6100/XL (K963271)

Table 5.1 - Comparing the HealthGuard Device to the Predicate Kiosk Device

{7}------------------------------------------------

Table 5.1 (Continued)

Measurement of Blood Pressure – The predicate blood pressure measurement device is the Omron HEM-7200-Z [BP742] (K121932) - - - hereinafter called the "Omron BP742." The HealthGuard-15's blood pressure measurement is accomplished by building the Omron BP742 into the HG-15. The only modifications made to the built-in BP742 are:

  • The plastic exterior covers are removed.
  • The pushbutton that starts the measurement has been replaced by a computer command signal.
  • . The inflation bladder's cloth cover was replaced with a more durable Nylon cloth cover.

Comprehensive bench performance tests were performed that proved that these minor changes did not affect the accuracy or precision of the systolic and diastolic blood pressure measurements and the heart rate measurement.

Table 5.2 compares the specifications of the predicate Omron BP742 with the device as installed in the HealthGuard-15.

{8}------------------------------------------------

{9}------------------------------------------------

Measurement of Percent Body Fat – The predicate body fat measurement device is the FUTREX-6100/XL (K963271). The HealthGuard-15's percent body fat measurement is accomplished by building the FUTREX-6100/XL into the HG-15. The only modifications made to the FUTREX-6100/XL are:

  • . The measurement site is on the triceps area at a fixed distance from the elbow instead of at the center of the biceps.
  • . Measurement is always on the left arm instead of always being done on the dominant arm.
  • . The pushbutton that starts the measurement has been replaced by a computer command signal.

Comprehensive bench performance tests were performed that proved these changes did not affect the accuracy or precision of the percent body fat measurements.

Table 5.3 compares the specifications of the unmodified predicate FUTREX-6100/XL with the device as installed in the HealthGuard-15.
