No
The summary describes "data processing algorithms" but does not explicitly mention or imply the use of AI or ML. The performance study focuses on standard pulse oximetry accuracy, not AI/ML model performance.

No
Explanation: The device is described as a "Health Monitoring System" intended for "remotely monitor physiologic parameters" and "continuous data collection for monitoring". It does not mention any therapeutic intervention or treatment of disease.

Yes

Explanation: The device is described as supporting "continuous data collection for monitoring of the following physiological parameters: Acceleration / Movement, Electrodermal Activity (EDA), Blood Oxygen Saturation, Pulse Rate, Peripheral Skin Temperature." It is specifically stated that the "blood oxygen saturation measurements compared against oxyhemoqlobin saturation using a radial arterial line" and demonstrated 3.5% accuracy. Monitoring these physiological parameters and comparing them against a gold standard for accuracy indicates a diagnostic function for gathering information about a patient's health status.

No

The device description explicitly states it includes a "wearable medical device smart ring," which is a hardware component.

Based on the provided information, the Happy Ring Health Monitoring System is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Happy Ring Function: The Happy Ring Health Monitoring System is a wearable device that directly measures physiological parameters from the user's body (finger) using sensors. It does not analyze samples taken from the body.

The device falls under the category of a wearable medical device that performs in vivo measurements (measurements taken directly from a living organism).

The Happy Ring Health Monitoring System is intended for retrospective remote monitoring of physiological parameters in ambulatory adults in home-healthcare environments. It is designed to continuously collect data to support intermittent monitoring of the following physiological parameters by trained healthcare professions or researchers: Acceleration / movement, electrodermal activity (EDA), blood oxygen saturation, pulse rate, and peripheral skin temperature.

Intended Use/Indications for Use

21 CFR 807.92

The Happy Ring Health Monitoring System is a wearable device system to remotely monitor physiologic parameters of patients in professional healthcare facilities, such as hospitals or skilled nursing facilities, or their own home. The device is intended for use on individuals who are 22 years of age or older.

The device supports continuous data collection for monitoring of the following physiological parameters:

  • Acceleration / Movement
  • · Electrodermal Activity (EDA)
  • Blood Oxygen Saturation
  • · Pulse Rate
  • · Peripheral Skin Temperature

The Happy Ring Health Monitoring System is intended for perioneral skin temperature monitoring temperature at the finger is clinically indicated.

The Happy Ring Health Monitoring System is not intended for SpO2 or pulse rate monitoring in conditions of motion or low perfusion.

Indications for Use Comparison

21 CFR 807.92(a)(3)

The subject device and predicate device have very similar indications for use, and therefore have the same intended use. Both devices are intended to measure various physiological parameters in adults (18 years of age or older) in home or healthcare facilities for the purpose of retrospective review by a clinician or researcher. In particular, both devices measure blood oxygen saturation, pulse rate, perioheral skin temperature, and electrodermal activity. The subject device measures acceleration while the measures activity associated with movement during sleep. This minor difference in indications for use does not constitute a new intended use.

Technological Comparison

The subject device and predicate device both have very similar technological characteristics. Both devices include a wearable sensor that acquires various raw signals, and transmits these raw signals to a cloud application via a mobile application. The communication between wearable device and mobile application occurs via Bluetooth Low Energy and the communication between mobile application and cloud application occurs via Wi-Fi or cellular for both devices, raw signal data are processed to determine and display various physiological measures (pulse rate, blood oxygen saturation, peripheral skin temperature, and electrodermal activity), and for these measures, the technical method to determine the measures are similar. Both devices power the a rechargeable lithium battery. Both devices include software, and include user interfaces for patient and clinician.

Some minor differences in technological characteristics exist between the two devices. The specific implementation of the software within each device is different but this does not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness as the general function of the software within each device is similar. The sensors used by each device may be different, but this also does not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness as the sensors (PG, Temperature, EDA) acquire the same general raw signal data.

The subject device's wearable sensor is a smart ring worn on the patient's finger whereas the predicate device is a wrist worn smart watch. Both devices measure their respective physiological signals with appropriate accuracy and as a result, this difference in anatomical site for acquiring raw signal data does not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness. The subject device also does not include a screen on the wearable sensor whereas the predicate device does. All relevant information is available on other screens accessible to patient (mobile application) and clinician (Physician data viewer), and as a result, this difference does not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness.

On this basis, the subject and predicate device can be considered substantially equivalent.

Non-Clinical and/or Clinical Tests Summary & Conclusions

21 CFR 807.92(b)

The following non-clinical tests were performed on the Health Monitoring System.

6

  • Electrical, mechanical and thermal safety testing in accordance with IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-1-11.

  • Electromagnetic Compatibility testing in accordance with IEC 60601-1-2.

  • Wireless coexistence testing in accordance with FDA's quidance: Radio Frequency Wireless Technology in Medical Devices.

  • Usability testing in accordance with IEC 62366 and FDA's guidance: Applying Human Factors and Usability Engineering to Medical Devices.

  • SpO2 and Pulse Rate bench testing in accordance with ISO 80601-2-61.

  • Temperature measurement accuracy testing in accordance with the relevant sections of ISO 80601-2-56.

  • Bench testing to verify the performance of EDA and accelerometer sensors.

  • Software V&V testing and Cybersecurity. Documentation was provided as recommended by FDA's guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices, and Content of Premarket Submissions for Management of Cybersecurity in Medical Devices.

The following clinical tests were performed on the Happy Ring Health Monitoring System.

  • Pulse Oximetry: blood oxygen saturation data from 12 subjects of varying BMI, skin tone, and ring size, all wearing the subject device were compared against oxyhemoqlobin saturation using a radial arterial line, in accordance with ISO 80601-2-61. The data demonstrates that the subject device's blood oxygen saturation measurements was within 3.5% Arms for the range of oxygen saturation measured by the device. No adverse events were reported during the trial.

Based on the information presented in this 510(k) premarket notification, device performance and safety evaluated in clinical testing, and comparison with the legally marketed predicate device, the Happy Ring Health Monitoring Platform has been shown to be substantially equivalent to the legally marketed predicate device.
