Intended Use
The Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor, Model BP3KV1-5W is a device intended to measure the systolic and diastolic blood pressure and pulse rate of an adult individual by using a non-invasive oscillometric technique in which an inflatable cuff is wrapped around the upper arm for a circumference range from 22 to 52cm. The device is suitable for use by adults with conditions of diabetes, pregnancy, or pre-eclampsia. The device detects the appearance of irregular heartbeat during measurement and gives a warning signal with the reading once the irregular heartbeat is detected. The device can be used in connection with a smart phone via Bluetooth or with a personal computer (PC) via USB. The measurement data can be transferred to a smart phone running the Microlife Connected Health+ mobile software (App) or a PC running the Microlife BP Analyzer+ (BPA+) software.
Device Description
Microlife Upper Arm Automatic Digital Blood Pressure Monitor, Model BP3KV1-5W is designed to measure systolic and diastolic blood pressure, pulse rate of an individual with arm circumference sizes ranging from 22 -52 cm by using a non-invasive technique in which one inflatable cuff is wrapped around the single upper arm. Our method to define systolic and diastolic pressure is similar to the auscultatory method but using a semiconductor sensor rather than a stethoscope and mercury manometer. The sensor converts tiny alterations in cuff pressure to electrical signals, by analyzing those signals to define the systolic and diastolic blood pressure and calculating pulse rate, which is a well - known technique in the market called the "oscillometric method". The device detects the appearance of irregular heartbeat during measurement, and the symbol " "\\\ "is displayed after the measurement. In addition, the device can be used in connection with smart mobile devices running the APP and via Bluetooth. The blood pressure monitor is a fully automatic digital blood pressure measuring device use by adults on the upper arm at home.
More Information

No
The description details a standard oscillometric blood pressure monitor and mentions the detection of irregular heartbeats using a well-known technique. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any related technologies in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.

No.
The device is intended to measure blood pressure and pulse rate, and detect irregular heartbeats, but it does not claim to treat, mitigate, cure, or prevent any disease or condition.

Yes
This device measures blood pressure and pulse rate, which are physiological parameters used to assess health status, and it also detects irregular heartbeats, providing information that aids in diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "fully automatic digital blood pressure measuring device" that uses an "inflatable cuff" and a "semiconductor sensor" to measure blood pressure. These are hardware components, not solely software. While it connects to software, the core measurement function relies on physical hardware.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to measure systolic and diastolic blood pressure and pulse rate using a non-invasive oscillometric technique. This is a physiological measurement, not a test performed on a sample taken from the body (like blood, urine, or tissue).
  • Device Description: The description reinforces the non-invasive nature of the device, using a cuff wrapped around the arm and a sensor to analyze pressure changes.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, reagents, or any other components typically associated with in vitro diagnostics.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease. This blood pressure monitor does not fit that definition.

6. Comparison to the 510(k) Cleared Device (Predicate Device):

Based on information from the comparison chart:

The differences and changes are the microprocessor and firmware versions. The measurement algorithm and mechanism of operation, as well as the safety & essential performance of the devices remain identical before and after the changes.

The subject (Modified) device BP3KV1-5W uses the same oscillometric method as the predicate device BP3GX1-5X/3MW1-4B with the same fundamental scientific technology to determine the systolic and diastolic blood pressure and pulse rate. Cuff is inflated automatically by pump and the pressures are transferred via tubing to a sensor in these units.

The subject (Modified) device BP3KV1-5W and the predicate device BP3MW1-4B have traffic light function, IHD function, MAM function, Bluetooth function and DMT technology and the predicate device BP3GX1-5X have traffic light function, MAM function and DMT technology.

5

The differences between these devices are:

1) Physical Dimension

The physical dimension of the subject device BP3KV1-5W is 157.5 x 105 x 61.5mm, while predicate device BP3GX1-5X is 85 x 143 x 58mm and predicate device BP3MW1-4B is 110 x 120 x 85mm. The difference is caused because of their different appearance, but the difference does not raise any new safety and effectiveness questions. This has been tested and confirmed according to IEC 60601-1-2 EMC Test Report, IEC 60601-1, AAMIANSI ES60601-1 Safety Test Report and IEC 80601-2-30 Test Report.

2) Display

The display of the Predicate device BP3MW1-4B is with touch pad; however, the display of the subject device BP3KV1-5W and the predicate device BP3GX1-5X is without touch pad. The functionality of the icons among the predicate devices (BP3MW1-4B and BP3GX1-5X) and subject device (BP3KV1-5W) are same, except that the subject device (BP3KV1-5W) has three additional icons representing the functions of Cuff fit check, My check and My BP.

3) Microprocessor

The microprocessor of the subject device BP3KV1-5W is R5F11NMEAFB, whereas the microprocessor of the predicate device BP3GX1-5X is R5F2LA8CANFP and predicate device BP3MW1-4B is C38D59GF. The microprocessors have different connection pin specifications, but the computing architectures are the same, but the computing architectures are the same. This difference does not affect performance and accuracy which was evaluated in the performance testing.

4) Sensor

The microprocessor of the subject device BP3KV1-5W is semiconductor sensor, whereas the microprocessor of the predicate device BP3GX1-5X and predicate device BP3MW1-4Bare capacitive sensor. Their calculation algorithms are the same. But the type of sensor is different. It does not affect performance and accuracy which was evaluated in the performance testing.

5) Cuff Fit Check Function

The subject device BP3KV1-5W has the cuff fit check function, whereas the predicate device BP3GX1-5X/3MW1-4B does not have the function. The cuff fit check function is to check pulse strength during measurement, and indicates if pulse strength is OK. If pulse is too weak, nothing is indicated. This function is just a reference for properly wearing the cuff and does not affect the accuracy and efficacy of the use according to the clinical and essential performance testing, so it does not affect the safety or effectiveness.

6) 28 Days Average Function

The subject device BP3KV1-5W has the 28 days average function. whereas the predicate device BP3GX1-5X/3MW1-4B does not have the function. The 28days average function is an indication of the blood pressure level of the most recent 4 weeks. This stands for the average of measurement values from the last 28 days, so this doesn't affect the clinical test.

6

7) MyCheck Function

The subject device BP3KV1-5W has the MyCheck function, whereas the predicate device BP3GX1-5X/3MW1-4B does not have the function. The MyCheck function displays a qualitative comparison of the most recent measurement versus the 4-week measurement average (stored in memory), to provide an immediate, simplified indication whether the current measurement is similar, above or below the 4-week average, without additional operations.

8) MvBP Function

The subject device BP3KV1-5W has the MyBP function, whereas the predicate device BP3GX1-5X/3MW1-4B does not have the function. The MyBP function shows an averaged value, which includes only readings taken in the morning or evening of the most recent 3 to 7 days for computation, per clinical guideline suggestion. The value is displayed only when sufficient number of readings meeting the criteria (below) have been obtained, to provide a more clinically relevant average. If data in the memory are insufficient, it is not displayed. This function is based on the measured data, so this doesn't affect the clinical test.

Based upon the aforementioned information, the three devices are substantially equivalent.

7. Discussion of Non-Clinical Tests Performed for Determination of Substantial Equivalence are as follows:
