The HealthPPT device is a software workflow tool designed to aid the clinical assessment of adult frontal Chest X-Ray cases with features suggestive of pneumoperitoneum in the medical care environment. HealthPPT analyzes cases using an artificial intelligence algorithm to identify suspected findings. It makes case-level output available to a PACS/workstation for worklist prioritization or triage. HealthPPT is not intended to direct attention to anomalies other than pneumoperitoneum. Notifications include compressed preview images that are meant for informational purposes only and not intended for diagnostic use beyond notification. The device does not alter the original medical image and is not intended to be used as a diagnostic device. Its results are not intended to be used on a stand-alone basis for clinical decision-making nor is it intended to rule out pneumoperitoneum or otherwise preclude clinical assessment of X-Ray cases.
The HealthPPT solution is a software product that automatically identifies suspected findings on chest x-rays (e.g. pneumoperitoneum) and notifies PACS/workstation of the presence of this critical finding in the scan. This notification allows for prioritization of the identified scan and assists clinicians in viewing the prioritized scan before others. The device aim is to aid in prioritization and triage of radiological medical images only.
The software is automatic and is capable of analyzing PA or AP chest x-rays. If a suspected finding is found in a scan, the alert is automatically sent to the PACS/workstation used by the radiologist or to a standalone desktop application in parallel with the ongoing standard of care. The PACS/workstation prioritizes and displays the study through its worklist interface. The ZebrAInsight standalone application includes a compressed preview image meant for informational purposes only and is not intended for diagnostic use.
The HealthPPT device works in parallel to and in conjunction with the standard care of workflow. After a chest x-ray has been performed, a copy of the study is automatically retrieved and processed by the HealthPPT device performs the analysis of the study and returns a notification about the relevant pathology to the PACS/workstation for prioritization. The clinician is then able to review the study earlier than in standard of care workflow.
The software does not recommend treatment or provide a diagnosis. It is meant as a tool to assist in improved workload prioritization of critical cases. The final diagnosis is provided by a radiologist after reviewing the scan itself.
The following modules compose the HealthPPT software for Pneumoperitoneum:
Data input and validation: Following retrieval of a study, the validation feature assessed the input data (i.e. age, modality, view) to ensure compatibility for processing by the algorithm.
Pneumoperitoneum algorithm: Once a study has been validated, the algorithm analyzes the frontal chest x-ray for detection of suspected finding suggestive of pneumoperitoneum.
IMA Integration feature: The study analysis and the results of a successful study analysis is provided to IMA, to then be sent to the PACS/workstation for prioritization.
Error codes feature: In the case of a study failure during data validation or the analysis by the algorithm, an error is provided to the system.
Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and study details for the HealthPPT device, based on the provided document:

VII. Performance Data:
Safety and performance of HealthPPT has been evaluated and verified in accordance with software specifications and applicable performance standards through Software Development and Validation & Verification Process to ensure performance according to specifications, User Requirements and Federal Regulations and Guidance documents, "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices".
The performance of the HealthPPT device has been validated in a performance study for triage of time sensitive chest X-Ray cases. The data included a retrospective cohort of 216 anonymized Chest X-ray cases from the USA and OUS, including 107 cases positive for Pneumoperitoneum and 109 cases negative for Pneumoperitoneum, as well as confounding imaging factors. The validation data set was truthed (ground truth) by three US Board-Certified Radiologists

(truthers). The stand-alone detection accuracy was measured on this cohort respective to the ground truth.
The HealthPPT device detection accuracy met the accuracy performance goals for AUC, and the sensitivity, and specificity for two defined operating points. Overall, the HealthPPT was able to demonstrate an area under the curve (AUC) of 96.75% (95% CI: [94.28%, 99.21%]), which is both comparable to the predicate device, and exceeds the required technical method under the QFM product code. The sensitivity and specificity of the HealthPPT was reported for two operating points. The first "balanced sensitivity and specificity" (default) operating point demonstrated a sensitivity of 92.52% (95% CI: [85.94%;96.16%]) and a specificity of 92.66% (95% CI: [86.18%;96.23%]). The second "high-specificity" operating point reported a sensitivity of 80.37% (95% CL: [71.85%;86.79%]) and a specificity of 97.25% (95% CI: [92.22%;99.06%]). Both operating points reached their performance goal.
In addition, we assessed the time it takes for the HealthPPT device to analyze the study and send a result. The average performance time of the HealthPPT was 4.78 seconds, which is significantly lower than the time reported by the predicate device (20.3 seconds).
VIII. Conclusion
The subject HealthPPT device and the AIMI-Triage CXR PTX (K193300) predicate device are both software-only devices intended to aid in triage of radiological images, independent of and in parallel to the standard of care workflow. Both devices incorporate an artificial intelligence algorithm. The labeling of both devices are limited to the categorization of exams and are not to be used in-lieu of full patient evaluation or relied upon to make or confirm diagnosis.
Both devices operate in parallel to the standard of care workflow in the sense that they do not change the original image, do not provide any marking, and do not remove cases from the standard of care. The minor differences between the subject device and the predicate raise no new issues of safety or effectiveness. In addition, performance testing demonstrates that the HealthPPT performs as intended. The HealthPPT device is therefore substantially equivalent to the AIMI-Triage CXR PTX predicate.

(a)
Identification. Radiological computer aided triage and notification software is an image processing prescription device intended to aid in prioritization and triage of radiological medical images. The device notifies a designated list of clinicians of the availability of time sensitive radiological medical images for review based on computer aided image analysis of those images performed by the device. The device does not mark, highlight, or direct users' attention to a specific location in the original image. The device does not remove cases from a reading queue. The device operates in parallel with the standard of care, which remains the default option for all cases.(b)
