The summary describes a device that measures heart rate using dry electrodes and displays the result. While it mentions a "detection algorithm" and "signal quality," there is no explicit mention of AI, ML, or related concepts like neural networks, deep learning, or training/inference processes that are characteristic of AI/ML systems. The performance studies focus on accuracy and signal quality, not on metrics typically associated with AI/ML model performance.
No.
The device is indicated to continuously measure and display the heart rate. It is a diagnostic device, not a therapeutic device.
Yes
The device continuously measures and displays heart rate, which is a physiological parameter used for assessment and monitoring of a patient's condition, classifying it as a diagnostic device.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "battery-powered device placed on the torso of a newborn" and mentions "ECG dry electrodes contact the neonate's skin" and an "LED display". This indicates it is a hardware device with integrated software, not a software-only medical device.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body (in vitro).
- NeoBeat's Function: The NeoBeat device measures heart rate by detecting electrical signals from the body's surface using electrodes placed on the skin. This is a measurement taken on the body (in vivo), not from a specimen taken from the body.
The description clearly states that NeoBeat measures and displays heart rate using dry electrodes on the torso. This is a physiological measurement, not an in vitro diagnostic test.

Device Description
The NeoBeat Newborn Heart Rate Meter is a battery-powered device placed on the torso of a newborn, indicated to measure the heart rate. NeoBeat does not store, display or output an ECG signal.
The device is placed around the torso of the neonate such that the ECG dry electrodes contact the neonate's skin. It can be oriented caudally or cranially. In normal operation, the LED display presents the heart rate in large numerals. The display can also present other information, such as signal quality and error codes. The device comes with a charging stand.

Description of the test set, sample size, data source, and annotation protocol
Estimating NeoBeat's heart rate accuracy based on 19 clinical cases, including resuscitation cases, representing over 4 hours of ECG data. The 19 cases were randomly selected from a large database containing newborn ECGs from four countries outside the United States. The database contains over 1000 cases of ECGs collected from researchers using NeoBeat on both term and pre-term newborns within the first few minutes of birth, including resuscitation cases. The QRS complexes of the 19 cases were then annotated by two experts, an ICU physician and a scientific expert in ECG signal processing and analysis. Heart rate based on expert annotation was considered "ground truth". Heart rate based on NeoBeat's algorithm was then compared to the "ground truth" heart rate to determine accuracy.
