Intended Use

The CardioSTAT ECG Test Solution is intended to capture, and report symptomatic and/or continuous ECG information for long-term ambulatory monitoring (up to 14 days). It is indicated for use on adult patients who may be asymptomatic or who may suffer from transient symptoms, such as palpitations, shortness, lightheadedness, presyncope, syncope, fatigue, or anxiety. The reported ECG metrics include single-lead analysis on a beat by beat basis, heart rate measurement and thythm annotation. The report does not contain diagnostic interpretation; the report is provided for review to the intended user to render a diagnosis based on clinical judgment and experience.

Device Description

The CardioSTAT® ECG Test Solution is a complete by prescription-only system for continuous ambulatory collection of ECG single-channel data for up to 14 days, followed by analysis and reporting of collected data. The CardioSTAT® ECG Test Solution is composed of two major components: (1) CardioSTAT® ECG Recorder and (2) ECG Analysis and Reporting Tool (EART) .

The CardioSTAT® ECG Recorder (1) is a nonsterile, non-invasive, and single-patientuse recorder worn on the patient's torso that provides a continuous, single-channel, ECG recording for up to 14 days. The Recorder snaps onto two off-the-shelf FDAcleared long-term monitoring electrodes on which OFIX® adhesive tape is applied to ensure long-term adherence to the patient. After the prescribed recording duration, the device is taken off by the patient and mailed to the data analysis center for analysis where data is analyzed by Certified Cardiographic Technicians (CCT) using (2) ECG Analysis and Reporting Tool (EART). The EART is intended for use only by trained technicians. A clinical report is then sent to the physician. The report does not contain diagnostic interpretation; the reported analysis is provided for review by the physician to render a diagnosis based on clinical judgment and experience.

A home use kit (CardioSTAT® Home Application) is also offered which includes all required devices to allow for remote prescription and home application of the CardioSTAT® recorder. The included devices (surgical razor, alcohol prep pad, electrodes, OFIX® tape) outside of this submission are currently available on the market.

The CardioSTAT® device is not designed to record ECG signals suitable to identify ST segment shifts and the EART software is not designed to detect or measure ST segment shifts.

The ECG signal collected by the CardioSTAT® ECG Test Solution is not intended for automated analysis other than beat and noise detection.

The ECG signal collected by the CardioSTAT® ECG Test Solution is not intended for third party ECG analysis systems.

The CardioSTAT® recorder is not a real-time device and all clinical data is reviewed after the device has been returned to Icentia.

The CardioSTAT® ECG Test Solution software provides automated detection of beats and noise only. All other classifications, rhythms and anomalies must be annotated by hand by the user in the EART software. Detections of beats and noise must be verified and confirmed by the user, or manually corrected with their respective annotation tools.

AI/ML Overview

The provided FDA 510(k) summary for the CardioSTAT® ECG Test Solution does not directly present specific acceptance criteria and detailed performance data in a tabular format that is typical for a clinical study comparing an AI device against a defined ground truth. Instead, it relies on substantial equivalence to predicate devices and references to existing literature and post-market data to support its performance claims.

However, based on the information provided, we can extract details related to performance and study references.

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

Formal acceptance criteria for AI algorithm performance (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, accuracy against a gold standard) are not explicitly stated in the document. The performance is primarily demonstrated through comparison with "standard Holter monitoring" and the predicate Zio patch system in referenced literature.

Below is an attempt to construct a table based on the provided information, noting the lack of explicit acceptance criteria and direct performance metrics for the device's automated analysis beyond beat and noise detection.

Criteria (Implicit)Reported Device Performance (from literature/post-market data)Notes
Arrhythmia Detection Accuracy (AF)99% agreement with standard Holter monitoring for AF detectionBased on a comparative study (Nault et al., 2019) with 212 patient recordings. This is the closest to a performance metric provided, specifically for Atrial Fibrillation (AF) detection. However, it's an agreement rate, not a direct sensitivity/specificity against a ground truth from an expert panel.
Patient Wear Time for Long-Term Monitoring13.1 days (SD 1 day, median 13.9 days) when prescribed for 14 daysBased on Icentia Post Market data from Canada and UK (33486 ECG tests). This is compared favorably to the Zio patch's unweighted mean wear time of 10.4 days (median 5-14 days) from a literature review (Yennikomshian et al.).
Signal Acquisition Quality (Vertical vs. Standard Position)Similar data quality and patient compliance in home-based self-installation (VSL position) compared to conventional in-clinic models.Based on a study (Benjamin et al., 2021) comparing 47 devices from each group (home vs. in-clinic). This supports the flexibility of application.

2. Sample Size for the Test Set and Data Provenance

  • Arrhythmia Detection (AF):
    • Sample Size: 212 patient recordings (Nault et al., 2019).
    • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated, but the authors are from Quebec, suggesting it may be Canadian data. The study is retrospective.
  • Signal Acquisition Quality (VSL position/Home Application):
    • Sample Size: 47 devices in the home-based VSL group, 47 devices in the in-clinic standard application group (Benjamin et al., 2021). Total of 94 devices.
    • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated, but the authors are listed with affiliations in Israel and Canada. The study appears to be prospective due to its design for a pandemic response.
  • Patient Wear Time:
    • Sample Size: 33,486 ECG tests (Icentia Post Market data).
    • Data Provenance: Canada and UK (retrospective post-market data).

3. Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth

The document does not explicitly state the number or qualifications of experts used to establish ground truth for the referenced studies.

  • For the arrhythmia detection study (Nault et al., 2019), the "standard Holter monitoring" would have been interpreted by cardiologists or trained technicians. However, the specific number of experts, their qualifications, or the adjudication method are not detailed in this submission.
  • For the signal acquisition quality study (Benjamin et al., 2021), the assessment of data quality would likely involve expert review, but this is not specified.
  • The patient wear time study is based on logistical and operational data, not diagnostic accuracy that typically requires expert ground truth.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

The document does not describe any specific adjudication methods (e.g., 2+1, 3+1) for establishing ground truth in the referenced studies. The Nault et al. study compares the CardioSTAT® against "standard Holter monitoring," implying the Holter interpretation served as the reference, but details of its establishment are absent.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

No formal MRMC comparative effectiveness study is mentioned in the provided text where human readers improve with AI vs. without AI assistance. The document explicitly states: "The CardioSTAT® ECG Test Solution software provides automated detection of beats and noise only. All other classifications, rhythms and anomalies must be annotated by hand by the user in the EART software. Detections of beats and noise must be verified and confirmed by the user, or manually corrected with their respective annotation tools." This indicates that the device's primary function is data capture and preliminary annotation, with significant human-in-the-loop for final interpretation.

6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance

The device is not presented as a standalone diagnostic device. Its software's automated analysis is limited to "beat and noise detection only." All other classifications, rhythms, and anomalies require manual annotation and verification by trained technicians (Certified Cardiographic Technicians – CCT) using the ECG Analysis and Reporting Tool (EART). The final report is then sent to a physician for diagnosis based on clinical judgment and experience. Therefore, a standalone performance study for comprehensive arrhythmia detection by the algorithm alone (without human input for "all other classifications") is not performed or reported.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

  • For arrhythmia detection (Nault et al.), the ground truth appears to be based on the findings from "standard Holter monitoring." This would typically imply expert interpretation of Holter ECGs.
  • For signal acquisition quality (Benjamin et al.), data quality assessment likely uses expert review, but the specific type of ground truth is not detailed.
  • For patient wear time, the ground truth is objective data from the device/system itself (duration of recording).

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

The document does not provide information regarding the sample size used for training any internal algorithms (e.g., beat and noise detection) within the CardioSTAT® ECG Test Solution.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

The document does not provide information on how ground truth was established for any training data, as details about internal algorithm training are not disclosed.

COMPARISON OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH THE PREDICATE 5.6. DEVICE

{5}------------------------------------------------

The proposed (subject device) CardioSTAT® Electrocardiogram (ECG) Test Solution is substantially equivalent to the primary predicate device 'Zio® SR ECG Monitoring Service (K143513 cleared on 06/19/2015)' with the reference device Carnation™ Ambulatory Monitor Model 3000 (CAM) (K143067 cleared on 12/22/2014) to support the difference in placement and the allowance for the option of user upload or manufacturer service, based on availability and user preference.

The predicate and reference devices are class II legally marketed devices as shown by the associated 510(k) numbers and clearance dates. All of the devices use the same main product code, DSH; Medical magnetic tape recorder. The subject device and the predicate use a secondary product code of DQK (Programmable diagnostic computer).

The regulation intended use covers the proposed and predicate devices. Comparison of the predicate device indications shows 6 main elements: (1) functionality, (2) duration, (3) demographics, (4) recording type, (5) reported metrics, and (6) report type. For the reference device, some of this information was not included in the indication statement so the relevant information was extracted from the IFU. brochure, and sample report to make the comparison.

All of the devices have the same primary technological characteristics. The CardioSTAT® ECG Test Solution is composed of two major components: (A) CardioSTAT® ECG Recorder and (B) ECG Analysis and Reporting Tool (EART) . Both the predicate (Zio Recorder & Zio ECG Utilization Service (ZEUS) and reference device (CAM & BDxCONNECT) have similar main components.

The main technological differences include:

  • Separation of device and electrodes raise a question concerning electrode i. performance. Electrode performance is standardized (ANSI/AAMI EC12:2000 (R2015) Disposable ECG Electrodes) and all of these electrodes are compliant to the standard. The primary predicate (Zio) has integrated the two accessories of the subject device (OFIX® & 3M electrodes) and the reference device has taken integration of the devices further incorporating the battery into the electrode to create a "battrode", however the function and performance of the components remains equivalent based on compliance with standard requirements. This question of electrode performance applies to the new device and the predicate / reference devices equally and is thus not considered a different or new question of safety and efficacy.
  • Electrode application in vertical and horizontal positions raises a question of ii. signal acquisition quality. The reference device is presented to support technological differences related to vertical placement. Clinical data in the form of literature and International Post Market Surveillance data is included in support of the horizontal application. This question of signal acquisition quality applies to the new device and the predicate / reference devices equally and is thus not considered a different or new question of safety and efficacy.
  • iii. Report contents raise a question of whether the report includes all information required by the clinician for diagnosis. The full ECG signal data is made available to the Certified Cardiographic Technicians in all three devices. The clinical report of all three devices contain the specifically identified content by

{6}------------------------------------------------

the CCT. This question of report content applies to the new device and the predicate / reference devices equally and is thus not considered a different or new question of safety and efficacy.

The identified questions of safety and efficacy listed above apply to both the new device and the predicate/reference devices and so the new device does not raise different or new questions of safety and efficacy. Therefore, the proposed (subject device) CardioSTAT®Electrocardiogram (ECG) Test Solution meets substantial equivalence requirements with regards to the legally marketed predicate device Zio® SRECG Monitoring Service (K143513 cleared on 06/19/2015) and reference device Carnation™ Ambulatory Monitor Model 3000 (CAM) (K143067 cleared on 12/22/2014)

5.7. PERFORMANCE DATA

The CardioSTAT® ECG Test Solution has been designed and tested to comply with all applicable FDA Recognized Standards. There are no device-specific quidance documents, special controls, and/or requirements in the device-specific classification regulation regarding performance data that are applicable to the subject device. All necessary performance testing has been conducted to support determination of substantial equivalence. Results confirm by examination and provision of objective evidence that the design output met the design input requirements in conformance with the following recognized consensus standards:

Validation of a novel single lead ambulatory ECG monitor - Cardiostat™ -Compared to a standard ECG Holter monitoring

J Electrocardiol. 2019 Mar-Apr:53:57-63. doi: 10.1016/j.jelectrocard.2018.12.011. Epub 2018 Dec 19.

In this paper, arrhythmia detection accuracy was compared between CardioSTAT® ECG Test Solution and a standard 24 h Holter ECG monitoring. Two hundred twelve patient recordings were compared. AF was diagnosed in 73 patients. Agreement between CardioSTAT® ECG Test Solution ECG and standard Holter monitoring was 99% for AF detection. Authors conclude that CardioSTAT® ECG Test Solution showed excellent correlation with the standard Holter ECG monitoring for AF detection. Added value of the CardioSTAT® ECG Test Solution includes longer monitoring duration, less cumbersome installation and water resistance.

A pandemic response to home delivery for ambulatory ECG monitoring: Development and validation

J Electrocardiol. 2021 Jan-Feb;64:72-75. doi: 10.1016/j.jelectrocard.2020.11.003. Epub 2020 Nov 18.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, a protocol was designed for mail-out devices and educational materials created to teach patients how to install the CardioSTAT® ECG recorder for 2 weeks of continuous ambulatory ECG monitoring. We compared data collection from two sequential patient populations; one who received standard device application in the same clinic in the months before the pandemic response, and another, who received their device by mail for self-installation at home in the VSL position. Patients received a single phone call when the device was mailed and were able to contact the manufacturer as needed for support. A total of 47 devices were assessed from each group. Each group was similar in age (70 vs 65 years), and clinical indication for monitoring. Overall, it was found that a mail-delivered home-based recording platform can be reliably used to acquire clinical data with similar data quality and patient compliance as a conventional in-clinic model for long term ambulatory ECG monitoring.

In support of CardioSTAT® ECG Test Solution performance with regards to patient wear time in long-term (up to 14 days) ambulatory environments.

Yennikomshian M. Jarvis J. Patton C. Yee C. Mortimer R. Birnbaum H. Topash M. Cardiac arrhythmia detection outcomes among patients monitored with the Zio patch system: a systematic literature review

ISSN: 0300-7995 (Print) 1473-4877 (Online) Journal homepage: https://www.tandfonline.com/loi/icmo20

This meta-analysis reports on twenty-three publications (22 unique studies). The unweighted mean wear time of the Zio patch was 10.4 days (median ranging from 5 to 14 days). Findings from the review suggest that long-term, continuous, uninterrupted monitoring with Zio results in longer patient wear times and higher cardiac arrhythmia detection rates compared with outcomes reported in previous reviews of short-duration (24-48 h) cardiac rhythm recording studies.

lcentia Post Market data from Canada and UK is compared to the study above. When prescribed for 14 days, CardioSTAT® ECG Test Solution wear time in post-market data from Canada and UK (33486 ECG tests) was 13.1 days (standard deviation of 1day and median of 13.9 days). Based on the Zio patch literature review and CardioSTAT® postmarket data, the CardioSTAT® ECG Test Solution wear time is shown to be equivalent to or longer than the Zio patch device.

CONCLUSION 5.8.

The CardioSTAT® ECG Test Solution is substantially equivalent to the predicate and reference devices.
