Intended Use

The Biobeat Platform-2 is a wireless noninvasive remote monitoring system intended for use by healthcare professionals for spot check collection of physiological data in home and healthcare settings. This can include, functional oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin (%SpO2), pulse rate, blood pressure, respiration rate (RRp), hemodynamic parameters (stroke volume, cardiac output), and body temperature.

The Biobeat Platform-2 tracks changes in blood pressure based on Pulse Wave Transit Time (PWTT) which is obtained utilizing pulse measurements from the integrated SpO2 sensor, following a calibration process using an FDA-cleared oscillometric blood pressure monitor.

The Biobeat Platform-2 is intended for spot-checking and tracking changes of adult patients in hospitals, clinics, long-term care, and at home. The data from the Biobeat Platform-2 are intended for use by healthcare professionals as an aid to diagnosis and treatment. The device is not intended for use on critical care patients.

Device Description

The Biobeat Platform-2 includes a sensor device that is attached to the patient's chest to collect physiological data for later review by their healthcare provider. The device consists of a light source (LEDs), thermistors and sensor array on the backside of the device. The LEDs transmit light into the subject's skin and part of this light is reflected from the tissue and detected by a photo-diode. This allows measurement of arterial oxygenation, pulse rate, change in blood pressure, stroke volume, cardiac output, and respiration rate. Body temperature is measured by the thermistors. Data is transmitted to a gateway via Bluetooth and then uploaded to the cloud. From the cloud, data is transmitted and presented in a web application for review by a healthcare professional. The device does not contain any alarms.

AI/ML Overview

Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them, based on the provided text:

Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance

The document doesn't explicitly list "acceptance criteria" in a separate table with specific numerical targets for each parameter. However, it states the device aims for equivalent performance to its predicate devices and provides accuracy statements for certain physiological parameters. For the new parameters (Stroke Volume (SV) and Cardiac Output (CO)), the acceptance criterion is implicitly demonstrated by the Bland-Altman analysis showing acceptable Limits of Agreement (LOA) against a reference method.

Here's an attempt to structure the information into a table, inferring the acceptance criteria from the performance data and comparisons to predicate devices:

Study Details for New Features (Stroke Volume & Cardiac Output)

1. Sample sizes used for the test set and the data provenance:
* Sample Size:
* 90 patients recruited.
* 80 patients included in the final analysis comparing PPG device and Fick method.
* 77 patients included in the final analysis comparing TD with Fick method.
* 82 patients included in the final analysis comparing PPG with TD.
* Data Provenance:
* Country of Origin: Not explicitly stated, but the company address is in Petah Tikva, Israel. Based on the Clinical Validation Data section, it seems to be from a clinical site where patients underwent right heart catheterization.
* Retrospective or Prospective: The study states, "Comparison was performed retrospectively, after completion of the measurement phase." However, subjects were "recruited" and "simultaneously attached" to devices, which suggests prospective data collection followed by retrospective analysis. The description indicates a prospective collection design for the "test set."

2. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
* This information is not provided in the text. The ground truth was established by objective medical methods (indirect Fick method and thermodilution), not subjective expert assessment.

3. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:
* None. The ground truth was established by objective reference measurements (Fick method and thermodilution, and a comparison between PPG and TD), not by human expert adjudication of images or data.

4. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance:
* No. This was not an MRMC study. The study focused on the accuracy of the device's measurements against established clinical reference methods, not on human reader performance with or without AI assistance. The device output is physiological data for healthcare professionals to aid diagnosis and treatment, not an AI interpretation for a human reader to validate.

5. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
* Yes. The clinical validation data presents the performance of the Biobeat device's algorithm (PPG device) in measuring cardiac output and comparing it to the reference methods (Fick and Thermodilution). This is a standalone algorithm performance evaluation.

6. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):
* Objective Clinical Reference Standards:
* Indirect Fick method
* Thermodilution (TD)
* These are considered "gold standard" or highly accurate methods for measuring cardiac output in a clinical setting.

7. The sample size for the training set:
* This information is not provided in the text. The document describes clinical validation for the test set, but not the training of the algorithms. It only states that a "new algorithm, derived from the existing photoplethysmogram, was added for measuring stroke volume and cardiac output."

8. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
* This information is not provided in the text. Given the new algorithm for SV/CO was "derived from the existing photoplethysmogram," it's possible it was developed using internal data and/or existing physiological models. The document focuses on the validation of this algorithm.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The Biobeat Platform-2 is a wireless non-invasive remote monitoring system intended for use by healthcare professionals for spot check collection of physiological data in home and healthcare settings. This can include, functional oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin (%SpO2), pulse rate, blood pressure, respiration rate (RRp), hemodynamic parameters (stroke volume, cardiac output), and body temperature.

Summary of Technological Characteristics

The subject and predicate devices are all intended to measure and display physiological signals. The subject device combines the parameters measured by the predicate devices into one device. Specifically, the subject device uses identical technology (i.e., the same sensor units and algorithms) for measuring SpO2, pulse rate, blood pressure, respiratory rate (RRp), and temperature compared to the primary predicate (Biobeat Platform: K212153), which is an earlier iteration of the subject device also manufactured by Biobeat. Both devices are adhesive unit-based devices intended to be attached to the chest to collect the data. In addition to the primary predicate device, a new algorithm, derived from the existing photoplethysmogram, was added for measuring stroke volume and cardiac output. This measurement capability is equivalent to the methodology used by the additional predicate, ClearSight™ System (K182245), to measure the same parameters.

There have been no physical modifications to the BB-613WP Patch itself or to the Biobeat Platform-2 as compared to the version cleared in K212153.

The subject device is supplied and used non-sterile, just like the predicate devices. The subject device uses software to control the device and analyze and display the results. The new software elements have been documented and validated per FDA guidance. The subject device contains electronics that present an electrical hazard and EMC risks. As the electronic components are identical to the primary predicate, repeated safety testing was not needed.

In sum, although there are minor differences in the technological characteristics, these differences do not raise different questions of safety or effectiveness, and the provided testing establishes equivalent performance as compared to the predicate devices.

Performance Data

The Biobeat Platform-2 uses the same hardware as the cleared BB-613WP Patch but features some software changes, including measurements of stroke volume and cardiac output. The device contains the same sensor unit and uses the same algorithm to compute SpO2 and pulse rate and to compute and track changes in blood pressure. Therefore, these signals' evaluation testing, which was submitted in K212153, remains applicable to the subject device. Additional testing was conducted on the updated product features, including:

  • . Clinical validation of stroke volume and cardiac output
  • Software validation per FDA guidance, General Principles of SoftwareValidation; Final Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff (January 11, 2002)

Clinical Validation Data

Ambulatory congestive heart failure patients arriving for right heart catheterization as part of their clinical assessment were recruited. The non-invasive Biobeat devices were simultaneously attached to their chests and frequent monitoring started in parallel to a SGC inserted through the Internal Jugular vein. Comparison was performed retrospectively, after completion of the measurement phase.

Results

90 patients (19-89yo, 53 males) were recruited, 80 were included in the final analysis comparing the PPG device and Fick, 77 were included in the final analysis comparing TD with Fick, and 82 were included in the final analysis comparing PPG with TD. The mean values of the CO measured using the indirect Fick method, the PPG device, and using the thermodilution (TD) were compared. Bland-Altman analysis showed that the PPG had LOA to the Fick method and TD within 30%.

Conclusions

The Biobeat Platform-2 is as safe and effective as its predicate devices. Specifically, the subject device has the same intended use as the predicate devices and combines the indications for use and technological characteristics of the predicates into one device. The minor technological differences between the Biobeat Platform-2 and its predicate devices, namely adding algorithms to the cloud to provide stroke volume and cardiac output measurements, raise no new issues of safety or effectiveness. Performance data demonstrate that the Biobeat Platform-2 is as safe and effective as the predicates. Thus, the Biobeat Platform-2 is substantially equivalent.
