Yes
The device description explicitly states that Tempus ECG-AF is a "cardiovascular machine learning-based notification software" and "employs machine learning techniques to analyze ECG recordings".
No
The device is described as a diagnostic tool that analyzes ECG readings to identify signs associated with a patient experiencing atrial fibrillation, but it explicitly states that results should not be used as the basis for treatment of AF and does not direct any therapy.
Yes
The device analyzes ECG recordings to detect signs associated with atrial fibrillation and/or atrial flutter, which is a diagnostic function, even though it's not the sole basis for diagnosis and results should be interpreted with other clinical information.
Yes
The device description explicitly states "Tempus ECG-AF is a cardiovascular machine learning-based notification software". It takes input data from existing 12-lead ECG devices and outputs results to other medical systems, without having its own dedicated hardware or user interface.
Based on the provided information, yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The device is intended to analyze recordings of 12-lead ECG devices to detect signs associated with a patient experiencing atrial fibrillation and/or atrial flutter. While ECGs are typically considered physiological measurements, the analysis performed by this software is specifically aimed at providing information about a patient's potential future medical condition (AF within the next 12 months). This analysis of biological data (ECG signals) to provide diagnostic information aligns with the definition of an IVD.
- Device Description: It's described as "cardiovascular machine learning-based notification software intended to analyze recordings of 12-lead ECG devices". The output is a binary result ("increased risk" or "no increased risk") which is used to "support clinical decision making regarding the need for further referral or diagnostic follow-up." This is a key characteristic of an IVD - providing information to aid in diagnosis or risk assessment.
- Performance Studies: The document details clinical performance validation studies with metrics like sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV. These are standard metrics used to evaluate the performance of diagnostic tests, including IVDs.
- Comparison to Predicate Device: The document mentions a predicate device, Viz HCM (DEN230003), which is also likely an IVD based on its K number and the context of comparison. The statement that the candidate device has the "same technological characteristics" as the predicate device further supports its classification as an IVD.
While the input is an ECG (a physiological signal), the software's function is to analyze this signal to provide diagnostic information about a potential future medical condition. This analytical function, aimed at aiding clinical decision-making for diagnosis and follow-up, is what classifies it as an IVD.
No
The input letter does not explicitly state that the FDA has reviewed and approved or cleared a Predetermined Change Control Plan (PCCP) for this specific device. The 'Control Plan Authorized (PCCP) and relevant text' section is marked "Not Found".
Intended Use / Indications for Use
Tempus ECG-AF is intended for use to analyze recordings of 12-lead ECG devices and detect signs associated with a patient experiencing atrial fibrillation and/or atrial flutter (collectively referred to as AF) within the next 12 months. It is for use on resting 12-lead ECG recordings collected at a healthcare facility from patients:
- · 65 years of age or older,
- · without pre-existing or concurrent documentation of atrial fibrillation and/or atrial flutter,
- · who do not have a pacemaker or implantable cardioverter defibrillator, and
- · who did not have cardiac surgery within the preceding 30 days.
Performance of repeated testing of the same patient over time has not been evaluated and results SHOULD NOT be used for patient monitoring.
Tempus ECG-AF only analyzes ECG data. Results should be interpreted in conjunction with other diagnostic information, including the patient's original ECG recordings and other tests, as well as the patient's symptoms and clinical history. Tempus ECG-AF is not for use in patients with a history of AF, unless the AF occurred after a cardiac surgery procedure and resolved within 30 days of the procedure. It is not for use to assess risk of occurrence of AF related to cardiac surgery.
Results do not describe a person's overall risk of experiencing AF or serve as the sole basis for diagnosis of AF, and should not be used as the basis for treatment of AF.
Results are not intended to rule out AF follow-up.

Device Description
Tempus ECG-AF is a cardiovascular machine learning-based notification software intended to analyze recordings of 12-lead ECG devices from patients 65 years of age and older. The software employs machine learning techniques to analyze ECG recordings and detect signs associated with a patient experiencing atrial flutter (collectively referred to as AF) within the next 12 months. The device is designed to extract otherwise unavailable information from ECGs conducted under the standard of care, to help health care providers better identify patients who may be at risk for undiagnosed AF in order to evaluate them for referral of further diagnostic follow up and address the unmet need of reducing the number of undiagnosed AF patients.
As input, the software takes data from a patient's 12-lead resting ECG (including age and sex). It is only compatible with ECG recordings collected using 'wet' Ag/AgCl electrodes with conductive gel/paste, and using FDA authorized 12-lead resting ECG machines manufactured by GE Medical Systems and Philips Medical Systems with a 500 Hz sampling rate. It checks the format and quality of the input data, analyzes the data via a trained and 'locked' machine-learning model to generate an uncalibrated risk score, converts the model results to a binary output (or reports that the input data are unclassifiable), and evaluates the uncalibrated risk score against pre-set operating points (thresholds) to produce a final result. Uncalibrated risk scores at or above the threshold are returned as 'increased risk' information; uncalibrated risk scores below the threshold are returned as 'no increased risk' information is used to support clinical decision making regarding the need for further referral or diagnostic follow-up. Typical diagnostic follow-up could include ambulatory ECG monitoring to detect previously undiagnosed AF, as described in device labeling. Results should not be used to direct any therapy against AF itself, including anticoagulation therapy.
Tempus ECG-AF does not have a dedicated user interface (UI). Input data comprising ECG tracing metadata (sample count, sample rate, etc.), patient age and patient sex, will be provided to Tempus ECG-AF through standard communication protocols (e.g. AP), file exchange) with other medical systems (e.g., electronic health record systems, hospital information systems, or other medical device data display, transfer, storage, or format-conversion software). Results from Tempus ECG-AF will be returned to users in an equivalent manner.

Intended Use and Technological Characteristics Comparison
The intended use of the candidate and predicate devices is the same. Both are intended for the analysis of 12-lead resting ECG recordings , using machine-learning techniques to detect signs of cardiovascular conditions for further referral or diagnostic follow-up. The indications for use of the candidate and predicate devices are similar. The candidate device is indicated to analyze ECG tracings in patients aged 65 and older, to detect signs associated with likelihood of a patient experiencing AF in the next 12 months. The predicated to analyze ECG tracings in patients aged 18 and older to detect signs associated with current hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM).
The candidate device has the same technological characteristics as the predicate device. Both are machine-learning based software used to analyze recordings of resting 12-lead ECGs.

Summary of Non-Clinical Studies
The performance of Tempus ECG-AF was evaluated based on the non-clinical testing as follows: software verification and validation: and cybersecurity and human factors testing.
Summary of Clinical Studies
Clinical performance of Tempus ECG-AF for analysis of ECG tracings to identify signs associated with a clinical diagnosis of AF in the next 12 months was validated in a retrospective observational cohort study, when the device was used as intended in a representative intended use population. The Tempus ECG-AF model was trained on data from > 1,500,000 ECGs and > 450,000 patients, with 80% of data used for training and 20% of the data used for model tuning. The average age of patients in the training dataset was 59.6 years. 52% of subjects were female and 48% were male. The racial distribution of the patients in the training dataset was 96% White, and 3% Asian/Other/Unknown. The model was locked prior to clinical performance validation in an independent real-world from 3 geographically distinct clinical sites.
Patients were included in the clinical performance validation study based on receiving an ECG as part of the standard of care, and sufficient pre- and post-ECG data available to determine that the patient was part of the intended use patient population and to enable at least 1 year of follow-up to determine the presence of a clinical diagnosis of AF. Each clinical site contributed >1000 patient records, from which the AF status of each patient was determined based on duplicate manual chart review. The total study size was 4017 patients, with one EOG analyzed per patient. The average age of study participants was 75.3 years. 56% of subjects were female. The racial distribution of the study population was 82% White, 11% Black, 3% Asian, and 5% Other/Unknown. Clinical characteristics of heart failure, hypertension, diabetes, stroke and vascular disease were broadly represented in the study. Seven models of 12-lead ECG machines were represented in the study as providing ECG inputs to the Tempus ECG-AF software. These were: CSYS, MAC2K, MAC35, MAC55 and MAC5K (GE Medical Systems) and PageWriter TC and PageWriter Touch (Philips Medical Systems).
Study endpoints of sensitivity and specificity were met, with an observed sensitivity of 31% (95% - 37%) and specificity of 92% (95% Cl of 91%-92%). The positive value (PPV) observed in the study was 19% (95% Cl of 15% -23%) and the negative predictive value (NPV) was 95% (95% - 96%). The 1 year incidence of clinical diagnosis of AF following ECG in the study population was 6.0%. No clinically significant differences in performance were observed based on analysis of subgroups.
The observed 19% PPV can be interpreted in the baseline 1-year incidence rate of AF (6%) observed in the study population as follows: if the intended use population were clinically evaluated for AF, AF would be observed in approximately 1-in-16 patients within the next 1 year. For those receiving a positive result from the test, AF would be observed in approximately 1-in-5 patients within the next 1 year.

Substantial Equivalence Conclusion
Based on non-clinical and clinical performance testing conducted, the candidate device, Tempus ECG-AF, is substantially equivalent to the predicate device Viz HCM (DEN230003). The devices have the same intended uses, principles of operation, and technological characteristics. Differences between the candidate and predicate devices do not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness, and the results of non-clinical testing and clinical performance validation demonstrate that the candidate device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
