More Information

No
The document explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found" and the description focuses on standard cardiac monitoring technology.

No.
The device is described as a "diagnostic monitoring device" used for evaluating symptoms and identifying cardiac arrhythmias, not for treating any condition.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states, "The Jot Dx™ ICM is indicated for the monitoring and diagnostic evaluation of patients..." Additionally, the "Device Description" calls it an "implantable diagnostic monitoring device."

No

The device description explicitly lists an "Implantable Device" and "Implant Tools," indicating significant hardware components beyond 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. They are used to examine these samples outside of the body.
  • Device Description: The Jot Dx™ ICM is described as a "minimally invasive, implantable diagnostic monitoring device with subcutaneous electrodes." This means it is placed inside the body to monitor electrical activity of the heart.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for monitoring and diagnostic evaluation of patients experiencing symptoms related to cardiac arrhythmias. This monitoring happens in vivo (within the living body).
  • Anatomical Site: The device is implanted subcutaneously, which is under the skin, inside the body.

The device collects physiological data (EGM - electrogram) directly from within the patient's body, rather than analyzing a sample taken from the body. This clearly distinguishes it from an in vitro diagnostic device.

N/A

Intended Use / Indications for Use

Device Description

The candidate Jot Dx™ ICM DM4500 System, predicated on the Confirm Rx™ ICM DM3500 System, consists of the following key features and components:

  • Jot Dx™ ICM Model DM4500 Implantable Device (Figure 2): The ICM is intended as a minimally invasive, implantable diagnostic monitoring device, with subcutaneous electrodes, looping memory, and automatic as well as patient-activated EGM storage capability, which help physicians monitor, diagnose, and document patients who are susceptible to cardiac arrhythmias. Specific features include:
    • Patient-initiated triggering of EGM storage using the myMerlin™ mobile application. o This includes capability for the patient to identify symptoms, which are stored with the EGM for physician review.
    • Automate d triggering of EGM storage when tachycardia, bradycardia, or pauses are detected; with physician-programmable values for pause duration, bradycardia rate, tachycardia rate, and number of tachycardia intervals.
    • Automated triggering of EGM storage when atrial fibrillation (AF) is detected, with o physician programmable values for AF duration.
    • The ability to identify EGM anomalies as a consequence of noise or vigorous activity o and inhibit EGM storage as applicable.
    • Remote monitoring capabilities. O
  • Implant Tools: Incision tool (Model DM3520; Figure 2, a) and Insertion tool (Model ■ DM3510; Figure 2, b) are used to implant the device subcutaneously. The implantable device is pre-loaded into the insertion tool and packaged together with the incision tool.
    • The DM3520 incision tool is used to make an angled cut to the skin during the insertion O procedure.
    • The blunt dissection tip of the DM3510 insertion tool is inserted just past the skin o creating a subcutaneous pocket parallel to the skin (Figure 3). With the insertion tool in place as far as it can go, until the flared edge contacts the incision site, the plunger is withdrawn to drop the pre-loaded device into the insertion channel. The plunger is advanced to insert the device into the subcutaneous pocket (Figure 3). This completes insertion (implantation) of the ICM, and the incision is closed per standard of care.
    • Confirm Rx ICM Accessory Kit DM3500A: The Confirm Rx™ ICM Accessory Kit Model DM3500A (originally cleared via 510(k) K202876) is a sterilized, standalone, onetime use convenience kit containing the Insertion Tool DM3510 and the Incision Tool DM3520. The contents of this package include implant tools which are used for both the candidate Jot Dx™ ICM DM4500 and the predicate Confirm Rx™ ICM DM3500 (K202888) and allow for availability of the implant tools separately in a convenience kit, without the pre-loaded ICM in the insertion tool.
  • Magnet: The magnet facilitates faster startup of Bluetooth connection and provides user authentication (required for programmer sessions).
  • Clinician Programmer (Merlin PCS Programmer Model 3650): The Merlin PCS 3650 Programmer operates using Model 3330 software. The clinician programmer provides the means for the physician to program device parameters and retrieve diagnostic information from the device, including electrograms, heart rate history, episode duration, and trend information. The clinician programmer, using a Bluetooth® dongle, a device-MDDS component, communicates with the Jot Dx™ ICM DM4500 device with Bluetooth® telemetry (also referred to as Bluetooth® Low Energy or Bluetooth® LE). Programmer software Model 3330 v25.3.1 or higher contains support for the Jot Dx™ ICM device and include tabs within the user interface for Implant View and Reason for Monitoring features.
    • Implant View is designed to streamline programming at the time of implant. Upon o initial interrogation at implant, the programmer automatically displays the Implant View in which the user can immediately input device and patient information to be stored onto the device, as well as set the Reason for Monitoring.
    • Reason for Monitoring allows the user to select from a list of possible conditions for o which the patient is receiving the device (such as Syncope. Ventricular Tachycardia, Palpations, etc). The programmer then sets the AF duration parameter and EGM storage priority based on the reason selected. These parameters can be manually adjusted by the user later, if customization is preferred.
  • myMerlin™ Mobile Application (Model APP1000 (Android) and APP1001 (iOS)): The ■ mobile application provides the means for the patient to activate EGM recording in the Jot DxTM ICM DM4500 device. with data pass-through functionality to enable physician follow-up via the Merlin.net Patient Care Network. Software v1.0.6000 or higher contain support for the Jot Dx™ ICM device. Patients who do not supply their own mobile device may be provided with an Abbott-issued off the shelf Android mobile device, which is not part of the medical device.
  • Remote Care/Clinician Portal (Merlin.net MN5000 Report Generator): The Merlin.net system allows physicians to remotely monitor and diagnose patients' cardiac events. The Merlin.net MN5000 v7.8 or higher software contains support for the Jot Dx™ ICM DM4500 device.
