Intended Use

The EGM CardioSet-001 is intended for patients with any of the following conditions:

  • With fluid management problems
  • Taking diuretic medication
  • Living with heart failure
  • Suffering or recovering from a coronary artery disease-related event

This device is intended for use under the direction of a physician, for the non-invasive monitoring and management of patients with fluid management problems in both the inpatient and outpatient setting.

The EGM CardioSet-001 reading is intended to be used as an adjunct parameter to standard clinical assessment methods and should not be the sole input used to guide treatment.

Device Description

The Edema Guard Monitor (EGM) CardioSer-001 is a non-invasive, battery-powered impedance monitor designed as an 'early warning' monitor for determining changes in the fluid status of patients with fluid management problems. The EGM CardioSet-001 works by applying a low amplitude, high frequency electrical current to the body and measuring the electrical impedance. By separately monitoring the impedance of various electrode pairs, the impedance due to the thoracic cavity can be isolated, improving device sensitivity. Base Impedance decreases when fluid increases and increases when fluid decreases.

The EGM CardioSet-001 is designed for use with commercially available electrodes which are positioned with the assistance of the supplied templates.

Device Description:

The Edema Guard Monitor (EGM) CardioSer-001 is a non-invasive, battery powered impedance monitor designed as an 'early warning' monitor for determining changes in the fluid status of patients with fluid management problems. The EGM CardioSet-001 works by applying a low amplitude, high frequency electrical current to the body and measuring the electrical impedance. By separately monitoring the impedance of various electrode pairs, the impedance due to the thoracic cavity can be isolated, improving device sensitivity. Base Impedance decreases when fluid increases and increases when fluid decreases.

The EGM CardioSet-001 is designed for use with commercially available electrodes which are positioned with the assistance of the supplied templates.

Intended Use / Indications for Use:

The EGM CardioSet-001 is intended for patients with any of the following conditions:

  • With fluid management problems
  • Taking diuretic medication
  • Living with heart failure
  • Suffering or recovering from a coronary artery disease-related event

This device is intended for use under the direction of a physician, for the non-invasive monitoring and management of patients with fluid management problems in both the inpatient and outpatient setting.

The EGM CardioSet-001 reading is intended to be used as an adjunct parameter to standard clinical assessment methods and should not be the sole input used to guide treatment.

Indications for Use Comparison:

The Indications for Use of the subject device are a subset of those cleared for the predicate device, meeting the first requirement for finding substantial equivalence.

Technological Comparison:

Both the subject and predicate device use the same technology of measuring lung bioimpedance in order to monitor pulmonary congestion. Both systems do this by applying electrodes on the skin. Other system components are also similar. Both systems are controlled via local software only (no external/cloud communication) and display their output to the physician on a console (predicate) or on

the device's display. The subject device is powered via a battery; the predicate device can also be used with battery power. The current transmitted to the electrodes has identical frequency (100 kHz) and its amplitude is of the same order of magnitude.

While the predicate device is designed for use with disposable, self-adhesive silver/silver chloride electrodes available from a specific provider, the subject device is designed for use with any standard ECG electrode and includes a self-check to ensure each electrode has a reasonable impedance. The predicate uses only 2 electrodes – one above the breastbone and one below the breastbone – while the subject device has six electrodes that are attached to the chest in specified locations (3 sensors on the front and 3 on the back) with the assistance of the templates provided with the device. The technological differences in location and number of electrodes do not raise different questions and are expected to provide at least equivalent lung fluid content calculation as demonstrated by bench, animal, and clinical study. The differences in the number and location of electrodes is in order to overcome the two largest challenges with obtaining sensitive measurement of lung congestion using bioimpedance.

Non-Clinical and/or Clinical Tests Summary & Conclusions:

Bench testing was performed to demonstrate the accuracy of impedance measurements and support general electrode compatibility.

Animal testing was performed to correlate impedance measurements with amount of lung congestion.

Side by side comparison of impedance measurements of both the subject and clinically studied device versions was performed to demonstrate equivalent performance.

The company has performed several clinical trials using the previous version of the EGM (RSMM 207) which were published between 2001 - 2012. The primary goal of the first clinical study (Charach et al., 2001) was to demonstrate proof of concept that the significantly different LIs were measured for patient that did and did not develop AHF. The second study (Shochat et al., 2006) determines the threshold where a relative change in LI from initial is clinically significant and provides a strong prediction of imminent presentation of AHF. The third study (Shochat et al., 2012) demonstrated that using this threshold to inform clinical treatment resulted in better clinical outcomes, both in the short and long term.

The provided performance testing demonstrated that the subject device can accurately measure lung impedance as described in the intended use above and is thus substantially equivalent to the referenced predicate device.
