The description focuses on standard signal processing and analysis of heart rate variability (HRV) patterns, without mentioning AI or ML algorithms.
No
The device is described as acquiring, storing, and reporting on ECG data to identify patterns in heart rate variability; it does not claim to treat, alleviate, or cure any condition.
No
Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "HeRO is intended to provide only specialized HRV measurements and is not intended to produce any interpretation of those measurements or any kind of diagnosis."
No
The device description explicitly states that HeRO Symphony, HeRO solo/duet, and HeRO ES are comprised of off-the-shelf Personal Computers (PC's) and special-purpose hardware capable of acquiring, storing, analyzing, and reporting ECG data. It also mentions a special-purpose Data Acquisition Device (DAD). This indicates the presence of hardware components beyond just software.
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.
- HeRO's Function: HeRO acquires, stores, and reports on ECG data collected from infants. ECG data is a measurement of the electrical activity of the heart, which is collected externally from the body using electrodes. It does not involve analyzing samples taken from the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for acquiring and analyzing ECG data and reporting on heart rate variability. This is a physiological measurement, not an in vitro test.
Therefore, HeRO falls under the category of a physiological monitoring device rather than an in vitro diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
HeRO is intended to acquire, store, and report on ECG data collected from infants. HeRO is intended to be used under the direct supervision of a licensed health care practitioner in a hospital neonatal or pediatric ICU environment.
HeRO is intended to be used for the variability in RR intervals (heart rate) and to report measurements of the variability of heart rate data (HRV). The HRV measurements reported by HeRO are specialized in nature, and intended to identify periods of transient decelerations and/or reduced baseline variability in the heart rate.
HeRO is intended to provide only specialized HRV measurements and is not intended to produce any interpretation of those measurements or any kind of diagnosis.
The specialized HRV measurements produced by HeRO have not been approved by the FDA for any specific clinical diagnosis.
HeRO acquires data from a user-supplied ECG monitor, and requires a user-supplied local area network.

Device Description
HeRO Symphony, HeRO solo/duet, and HeRO ES are comprised of off-the-shelf Personal Computers (PC's) and special-purpose hardware capable of acquiring, storing, analyzing, and reporting ECG data from the cardiac monitoring real-time network. Data is acquired either on a special-purpose Data Acquisition Device (DAD) or via the physiological monitoring network. It is stored and analyzed on a HeRO Server or physiological monitor. Results of the analyses are reported on one or more Viewing Stations. The analysis algorithms identify Heart Rate Variability (HRV) patterns that reflect transient decelerations and/or reduced baseline variability.

Dear William King:
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 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);

6. Summary of Technological Characteristics
HeRO Symphony, HeRO solo/duet, and HeRO ES share the same software as HeRO 3.0, and are identical in technological characteristics. HeRO Symphony is the marketing name for networkbased implementations of HeRO, with a separate server and viewing stations. HeRO solo and duet implement the server and viewing station functionality on a single medical-grade PC for one or two beds. HeRO ES implements HeRO on the integrated PC (iPC) of a Philips MX700 or MX800 monitor.
New labeling has been created that is specific to each of these three embodiments. The new instructions for use differ from the previously cleared device in updated (and specific) screenshots, availability of electronic copies of the labeling, references and annotations to new journal articles supporting the intended use 15, simplification of the user interface particularly related to admission, transfer, and discharge, and general edits for clarification.
7. Summary of Supporting Data
HeRO Symphony, HeRO solo/duet, and HeRO ES were developed and are manufactured in accordance with 31 CFR 820 Quality System Regulations. HeRO specific hardware has been third-party tested in accordance with IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-1-2. HeRO Symphony, HeRO solo/duet, and HeRO ES performance matches the product specifications.
The nonclinical testing that is part of the processes described above demonstrate the HeRO Symphony, HeRO solo/duet, and HeRO ES are as safe, as effective, and perform as well as or better than HeRO 3.0.
