The BP-2BIO Digital Blood Pressure Monitor is a device intended to measure the systolic and diastolic blood pressure and pulse rate of an adult individual by using a non-invasive technique in which an inflatable cuff is wrapped around the upper arm.
The BP-2BIO Digital Blood Pressure Monitor is designed to measure the systolic and diastolic blood pressure and pulse rate of an individual by using a noninvasive technique which an inflatable cuff is wrapped around the upper arm. Our method to define systolic and diastolic pressures is similar to the auscultatory method but uses an electronic capacitive pressure sensor rather than stethoscope and mercury manometer. The sensor converts tiny alteration in cuff pressure to electrical signals; by analyzing those signals to define the systolic, diastolic and calculating pulse rate is a well known technique in the market so called "oscillometric method".
The MicroLife Manual Blood Pressure Monitor, Model BP-2BIO, has shown to meet acceptance criteria through various tests, primarily guided by the ANSI/AAMI SP-10-1992 "National Standard for Electronic or Automated Sphygmomanometers".
Here's a breakdown of the requested information:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
| Criteria | Acceptance Standard | Device Performance |
|---|---|---|
| Electrical, Mechanical, and Environmental Performance | Requirements outlined in the FDA November 1993 Draft "Reviewer Guidance for Premarket Notification Submissions", DCRND. | Met all relevant requirements. Specific tests conducted include: - General Functions Test - Reliability Test-Operation Conditions - Reliability Test-Drop Testing - Reliability Test-Storage - Reliability Test-Vibration Testing - EMC Test Report - EN1060 Regulations and Test Report - CE Certification |
| Blood Pressure Monitoring Accuracy | ANSI/AAMI SP-10-1992 "National Standard for Electronic or Automated Sphygmomanometers" | Met all relevant requirements. The device uses an oscillometric method similar to the predicate device (Omron HEM-405C) but with an improved software interface to the sensor. The software utilizes a split slope resolution (0-100mmHg, 100-200mmHg, 200-300mmHg) to reduce nonlinearity error from 1% to 0.33%, enhancing accuracy. |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
The provided document does not specify the sample size for the clinical test set used for the ANSI/AAMI SP-10-1992 standard. It also does not mention the country of origin of the data or whether it was retrospective or prospective.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications
The document does not provide information regarding the number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set or their qualifications. The ANSI/AAMI SP-10-1992 standard typically mandates specific protocols for clinical validation, often involving trained human observers using mercury sphygmomanometers as a reference, but these details are not present in this submission.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
The document does not describe the adjudication method used for the test set.
5. Multi Reader Multi Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study
An MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not performed or reported in this submission. The evaluation focuses on the standalone performance of the device against a standard and its substantial equivalence to a predicate, not on human-AI collaboration.
6. Standalone Performance Study
Yes, a standalone study was performed. The "Discussion of Clinical Tests Performed" section explicitly states: "ANSI/AAMI SP-10-1992 'National Standard for Electronic or Automated Sphygmomanometers' testing was performed. All relevant sections were addressed and testing conducted. The BP-2BIO met all relevant requirements of this standard." This indicates an evaluation of the algorithm's performance in determining blood pressure and pulse rate without human-in-the-loop assistance during the measurement process itself.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
Based on the reference to ANSI/AAMI SP-10-1992, the ground truth for blood pressure measurements would typically be established by expert auscultation using a mercury sphygmomanometer, considered the gold standard for non-invasive blood pressure measurement at the time. This standard defines precise protocols for comparing automated device readings against human-observed readings by trained professionals.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
The document does not provide any information about a training set or its sample size. This device appears to be a traditional medical device (hardware with embedded software for signal processing) rather than an AI/ML-driven device that requires a separate "training set" in the modern sense. The software's accuracy is improved by a "split slope resolution" that maps to the sensor's output, a calibration approach rather than a machine learning training process.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established
As no "training set" is explicitly mentioned in the context of machine learning, there is no information on how ground truth for such a set would have been established. The device relies on a "well known oscillometric method" and a software interface designed to optimize accuracy against the sensor's output through calibration, rather than learning from a diverse dataset.

5. Intended Use:
The BP-2BIO Digital Blood Pressure Monitor is a device intended to measure the systolic and diastolic blood pressure and pulse rate of an adult individual by using a non-invasive technique in which an inflatable cuff is wrapped around the upper arm.
ଚ. Comparison to Predicate Devices:
Both devices use the well known oscillometric method within the software algorithm to determine the systolic, diastolic and pulse rate. A similar arm cuff is inflated automatically, deflate rate is controlled but a factory set bleed valve and the deflation pressures are transferred via tubing to a sensor in both units. Each device uses a similar capacitance-type pressure sensor to translate the pressure variations to electrical signals that can be interpreted by an integrating circuit. Once the reading is determined each unit operates a solenoid valve to release the pressure to zero. Our Digital Blood Pressure Monitor, Model BP-B21O, differs from the predicate device in the software interface to the sensor which determines the system accuracy.
The interface between the sensor and the microprocessor determines the system's accuracy. For our Digital Blood Pressure Monitor, Model BP-B2IO, the software is capable of a split slope resolution to improve accuracy over the entire range. Since the range is "split" into three sections (0 to 100mmHg) (100 to 200mmHq) (200 to 300mmHg) error due to nonlinearity is reduced by the ability to adjunct the slope to best fit the output curve. A nonlinearity of 1 % is reduced to .33% by splitting the span into three separate linear relations. This way the sensor is matched to the software by using a series of jumpers that profile the slopes to the output of the sensor.
The Digital Blood Pressure Monitor Model BP-B210 has field calibration access; this mode is initiated by depressing both the start and the on button for over 5 seconds. A sleeve on the input tube fitting can be removed so that the fitting can be inserted into the unit in a manner to bypass the pressure bleed valve to close the pressure system and enable it to respond to the input pressure for calibration check.
