The Biobeat BB-613-BPM is a noninvasive blood pressure monitor which provides a notification to the user every 15 minutes over a 24 hour period for user- initiated measurements. It includes a device and a platform (BPM) for use in adults by healthcare professionals, for collection of pulse rate and tracking changes in blood pressure based on Pulse Wave Transit Time (PWTT) in hospitals, clinics, long-term care and at home. The BB-613-BPM tracks changes in blood pressure and requires callbration using an FDA-cleared oscillometric blood pressure monitor. The data from the Biobeat BB-613-BPM can be accessed through the Biobeat platform for review by a healthcare professional or can be downloaded as a report. The device is not intended to be used on critical care patients.
The Biobeat BB-613-BPM includes a sensor device that is attached to the patient's chest to collect physiological data for later review by their healthcare provider. The device is designed to measure systolic and diastolic blood pressure and pulse rate, in adults, using a noninvasive technique using a light source (LEDs), and sensor array on the backside of the device. Identical to the method cleared in K190792 and in K222010, the LEDs transmit light into the subject's skin and part of this light is reflected from the tissue and detected by a photo-diode. This allows measurement of pulse rate, and noninvasive blood pressure. The device is a pre-programmed 24-hour blood pressure monitor (BPM), prompting the use to take measurements at fixed intervals every 15 minutes. In addition, the data is transmitted to a mobile application via Bluetooth and then uploaded to the cloud, accessed through the Biobeat platform for review by a healthcare professional. In addition, the data could be downloaded as a report. The device does not contain any alarms. The device is intended to be used by healthcare professionals and patients in clinical and patient's environments.
The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the Biobeat BB-613-BPM. It outlines the device, its indications for use, technological characteristics, and a comparison to predicate devices, ultimately concluding substantial equivalence. However, it does not contain specific details about acceptance criteria, the study design (e.g., sample size, data provenance, expert qualifications, adjudication methods), or performance data results that would be typically found in a clinical study report.
The document explicitly states: "The Biobeat BB-613-BPM uses the same hardware as the cleared Biobeat Platform-2 and the BB-613WP Patch but features some software changes. The device contains the same sensor unit and uses the same algorithm to compute pulse rate and blood pressure. Therefore, these signals' evaluation testing, which was submitted in K222010 and K190792, remains applicable to the subject device. Additional testing was conducted on the updated product features, including: . Software validation per FDA guidance..."
This indicates that the primary focus of the new submission (K241066) was on software validation for the new feature (24-hour, patient-initiated measurements with notifications), rather than extensive new clinical performance studies for blood pressure or pulse rate accuracy, as those were already established for the predicate devices utilizing the same sensor unit and algorithm.
Therefore, many of the requested details about a study proving the device meets acceptance criteria are not present in the provided text. I will answer based on the information that is available.
Here's an attempt to answer your questions based only on the provided text, flagging where information is missing:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
The document provides a comparison table of technological characteristics, including measurement ranges and accuracies, which can be interpreted as performance specifications inherited from the predicates and serving as acceptance criteria.
| Characteristic | Acceptance Criteria (from Predicates) | Reported Performance (for Subject Device) |
|---|---|---|
| Pulse Rate (PR) Range | 40 to 250 bpm | Not explicitly re-stated, implied to be same due to identical hardware/algorithm |
| PR Accuracy (Arms, PR) | ±3% | Not explicitly re-stated, implied to be same due to identical hardware/algorithm |
| Blood Pressure (BP) Range | SBP: 60 - 220 mmHg, DBP: 40 - 110 mmHg | Not explicitly re-stated, implied to be same due to identical hardware/algorithm |
| BP Accuracy | ±5 mmHg | Not explicitly re-stated, implied to be same due to identical hardware/algorithm |
Note: The document states, "The device contains the same sensor unit and uses the same algorithm to compute pulse rate and blood pressure. Therefore, these signals' evaluation testing, which was submitted in K222010 and K190792, remains applicable to the subject device." This implies that the BB-613-BPM is expected to meet the same accuracy standards as its predicates for PR and BP. The primary new "performance data" mentioned is "Software validation per FDA guidance."
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
- Sample Size: Not specified in this document. The document refers to prior testing for pulse rate and blood pressure (from K222010 and K190792) and software validation.
- Data Provenance: Not specified.
- Retrospective/Prospective: Not specified.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)
- This information is not applicable or not provided. The ground truth for blood pressure and pulse rate measurements in medical devices like this is typically established using established reference methods (e.g., intra-arterial measurements, or a validated oscillometric device for calibration as mentioned in the Indications for Use). Expert readers are typically not used to establish ground truth for physiological measurements like BP or PR.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
- This information is not applicable or not provided, as this is not a study involving human reader interpretation or adjudication.
5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance
- No, a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not conducted or reported in this document. This type of study is relevant for AI systems that aid human interpretation (e.g., radiology AI), which is not the primary function described for this blood pressure measurement system's new feature.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
- The document implies that standalone performance for pulse rate and blood pressure was established and deemed acceptable in prior submissions (K222010 and K190792) because the subject device uses the "same sensor unit and uses the same algorithm to compute pulse rate and blood pressure." The new submission focuses on software changes related to the 24-hour monitoring feature and notifications, rather than core measurement algorithm performance.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
- For blood pressure and pulse rate measurements: The Indications for Use state, "The BB-613-BPM tracks changes in blood pressure and requires calibration using an FDA-cleared oscillometric blood pressure monitor." This strongly suggests that an FDA-cleared oscillometric blood pressure monitor serves as the ground truth or reference method for calibration and presumably for performance validation in the previous submissions.
8. The sample size for the training set
- Not specified. This document only pertains to a 510(k) submission, not a full scientific publication detailing model development.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
- Not specified. As noted above, the ground truth for physiological measurements typically involves comparison to a gold standard or reference method. However, details of the training set (if any specific to this submission's new features beyond the core algorithm) are not provided. The phrase "pre-programmed" suggests the algorithms are fixed, not adaptively learning from ongoing data.

Indications for Use
The Biobeat BB-613-BPM is a noninvasive blood pressure monitor which provides a notification to the user every 15 minutes over a 24 hour period for user- initiated measurements. It includes a device and a platform (BPM) for use in adults by healthcare professionals, for collection of pulse rate and tracking changes in blood pressure based on Pulse Wave Transit Time (PWTT) in hospitals, clinics, long-term care and at home.

The device is not intended to be used on critical care patients.
Summary of Technological Characteristics
The subject and predicate devices are all intended to measure and display blood pressure. The subject device uses identical technology (i.e., the same sensor units and algorithms) for measuring pulse rate and blood pressure compared to the predicate devices cleared in K190792 (BB-613 WP - wrist and patch devices) and K222010 (Biobeat Platform-2), also manufactured by Biobeat. Both these predicates and the subject devices are skin attached devices intended to collect the data. In addition to the predicate devices, an updated software was added for the 24-hour measuring of blood pressure.
There have been no physical modifications to the BB-613-BPM Patch itself as compared to the versions cleared in K190792 and K222010.
The subject device is supplied and used non-sterile, just like the predicate devices. The subject device uses software to control the device and display the results. The new software elements have been documented and validated per FDA guidance. The subject device contains electronics that present an electrical hazard and EMC risks. As the electronic components are identical to the predicate devices cleared in K190792 and K222010, repeated EMC or safety testing was not needed.
In sum, although there are minor differences in the technological characteristics, these differences do not raise different questions of safety or effectiveness, and the provided testing establishes equivalent performance as compared to the predicate devices.

Performance Data
The Biobeat BB-613-BPM uses the same hardware as the cleared Biobeat Platform-2 and the BB-613WP Patch but features some software changes. The device contains the same sensor unit and uses the same algorithm to compute pulse rate and blood pressure. Therefore, these signals' evaluation testing, which was submitted in K222010 and K190792, remains applicable to the subject device. Additional testing was conducted on the updated product features, including:
- . Software validation per FDA guidance, General Principles of SoftwareValidation; Final Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff (January 11, 2002)
Conclusions
The Biobeat BB-613-BPM is as safe and effective as its predicate devices. The minor technological differences between the Biobeat BB-613-BPM and its predicate devices cleared in K190792 and K222010, namely adding notifications to the user to allow for 24-hour, patient initiated measurements, raise no new issues of safety or effectiveness. Performance data demonstrate that the Biobeat BB-613-BPM is as safe and effective as the predicates. Thus, the Biobeat BB-613-BPM is substantially equivalent.
