Yes
The device description explicitly states that the main component is an "automated proprietary deep-learning algorithm," which is a type of machine learning.
No
The device is a diagnostic tool that provides analysis of cardiac arrhythmias to aid healthcare professionals, but it does not directly treat or provide therapy to patients.
Yes
The device, DeepRhythmAI, is intended for "assessment of cardiac arrhythmias" and provides "supportive information for review" to "qualified healthcare professionals." It analyzes ECG data to detect cardiac beats/arrhythmias and intervals, generating "interpretation results." While these results are not the sole means of diagnosis and are offered on an advisory basis, the device's function of analyzing medical data to provide information for the identification or monitoring of a disease (cardiac arrhythmias) falls under the definition of a diagnostic device.
Yes
The device is explicitly described as "cloud-based software" and its primary component is a "deep-learning algorithm." It functions as an API for integration with other systems and does not include or require specific hardware components for its core functionality.
Based on the provided information, DeepRhythmAI 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.
- DeepRhythmAI's Function: DeepRhythmAI analyzes ECG data, which is an electrical signal recorded from the body's surface. It does not analyze biological specimens.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for the assessment of cardiac arrhythmias using two lead ECG data. This is a physiological measurement, not an in vitro test.
Therefore, DeepRhythmAI falls under the category of a medical device that analyzes physiological signals, not an IVD.
No
The letter does not explicitly state that the FDA has reviewed and approved or cleared a Predetermined Change Control Plan (PCCP) for this specific device. The "Control Plan Authorized (PCCP) and relevant text" section explicitly states "Not Found".
Intended Use / Indications for Use
DeepRhythmAI is a cloud-based software for the assessment of cardiac arrhythmias using two lead ECG data in adult patients.
It is intended for use by a healthcare solution integrator to build web, mobile or another types of applications to let qualified healthcare professionals review and confirm the analytic result. The product supports downloading and analyzing data recorded in the compatible formats from dedicated ambulatory ECG devices such as Holter, event recorder, Mobile Cardiac Telemetry or other similar devices when tof the rhythm is necessary. The product can be electronically interfaced and perform analysis with data transferred from other computer-based ECG systems, such as an ECG management system. DeepRhythmAI can be integrated into medical devices. In this case, the medical device manufacturer will identify the indication for use depending on the application of their device.
DeepRhythmAI is not for use in life-supporting or sustaining systems or ECG Alarm devices. Interpretation results are not intended to be the sole means of diagnosis. It is offered to physicians on an advisory basis only in conjunction with the physician's knowledge of ECG patterns, patient background, clinical history, symptoms and other diagnostic information.

DeepRhythmAI can also be electronically interfaced and perform analysis with data transferred from other computer-based ECG systems, such as an ECG management system. DeepRhythmAI doesn't have a User Interface therefore it should be integrated with the external visualization software used by the ECG technicians for the ECG visualization and analysis reporting.
It is intended for use by a healthcare solution integrator to build web, mobile or another types of applications to let qualified healthcare professionals review and confirm the analytic result. .
DeepRhythmAI algorithm detects cardiac beats/arrythmias and intervals including:
- QRS
- Heart rate determination
- RR Interval measurements
- Non-paced arrhythmias
- Non-paced ventricular arrhythmia calls
- Ventricular ectopic beats
- Supraventricular ectopic beats
DeepRhythmAI returns the interpretation result to be reviewed by a qualified healthcare professional. DeepRhythmAI when integrated with the other computer-based ECG systems, creates a semi-autonomous system for analysis of ECG recordings. All algorithm annotations must be analyzed and confirmed by a qualified healthcare professional. The subject device can only be integrated with the display product used by the monitoring center that allows for verification of the algorithm output, its correction and confirmation.
DeepRhythmAI is not for use in life-supporting or sustaining systems or ECG Alarm devices. Interpretation results are not intended to be the sole means of diagnosis. It is offered to physicians and clinicians on an advisory basis only in conjunction with the physician's knowledge of ECG patterns, patient background, clinical history, symptoms and other diagnostic information.
