The Proteus Patch enables unattended data collection for clinical and research applications. The Proteus Patch may be used in any instance where quantifiable analysis of event-associated physiological and behavioral metrics is desirable. ## Device Story Proteus Patch is a wearable sensor collecting heart rate, activity, body angle, and ingestion events. Ingestible sensor, embedded in a tablet, activates in the stomach, communicating via volume conduction to the patch. Patch stores data and wirelessly transmits to a computing device for display. Used in clinical/research settings for unattended data collection. Healthcare providers use the output to analyze event-associated physiological and behavioral metrics, aiding clinical decision-making. Benefits include objective, time-stamped tracking of medication adherence and physiological response. ## Clinical Evidence No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence supported by bench testing, including accelerometer validation against known acceleration and heart rate quantification using a modified Hamilton-Tompkins algorithm per ANSI/AAMI EC 13 standards. ## Technological Characteristics Wearable sensor with 3-axis accelerometer and biopotential amplifiers. Materials: LiMn coin cell battery. Sensing: Biopotential low-frequency (heart rate) and high-frequency (impedance) amplifiers; accelerometer for activity/body angle. Ingestible sensor uses bio-galvanic power and volume conduction. Connectivity: Wireless transmission to computing device. Form factor: Two-piece rectangular (98mm x 42mm x 11mm). Memory: 16 MB. Software: Modified Hamilton-Tompkins algorithm for heart rate. ## Regulatory Identification An ingestible event marker is a prescription device used to record time-stamped, patient-logged events. The ingestible component links wirelessly through intrabody communication to an external recorder which records the date and time of ingestion as well as the unique serial number of the ingestible device. ## Special Controls In combination with the general controls of the FD&C Act, the Proteus Personal Monitor including Ingestion Event Marker is subject to the following special controls: *Classification.* Class II (special controls). The special controls for this device are:(1) The device must be demonstrated to be biocompatible and non-toxic; (2) Nonclinical, animal, and clinical testing must provide a reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness, including device performance, durability, compatibility, usability (human factors testing), event recording, and proper excretion of the device; (3) Appropriate analysis and nonclinical testing must validate electromagnetic compatibility performance, wireless performance, and electrical safety; and (4) Labeling must include a detailed summary of the nonclinical and clinical testing pertinent to use of the device and the maximum number of daily device ingestions. ## Predicate Devices - Proteus® Patch Including Ingestible Sensor ([K131009](/device/K131009.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

The Ingestible Sensor is embedded inside an inactive tablet (the Pill) for ease of handling and swallowing. Once the Ingestible Sensor reaches the stomach, it activates and communicates its presence and unique identifier to the Patch stores and wirelessly sends the physiological, behavioral, event, and ingestion data to a general computing device for display. {1}------------------------------------------------ ### Intended Use The Proteus® Patch is a miniaturized, wearable data-logger for ambulatory recording of physiological and behavioral metrics such as heart rate, activity, body angle telative to gravity, and time-stamped, patient-logged events, including events signaled by swallowing the Ingestible Sensor accessory. The Proteus Patch enables unattended data collection for clinical and research applications. The Proteus Patch may be used in any instance where quantifiable analysis of event-associated physiological and behavioral metrics is desirable. | Parameter | Values | | |-------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------| | The Patch | | | | Shape | One-Piece Form Factor:

The biopotential low-frequency amplifier was used to quantify heart rate by measuring Rwave frequency based upon a modified Hamilton-Tompkins algorithm, tested using guidelines set forth in the ANSI/AAMI EC 13 standard. The Ingestion Sensor was tested for activation time and lifetime after activation. # Summary of Clinical Performance Data No additional clinical data were required to confirm substantial equivalence to predicate device. ## Conclusion Based on technological characteristics, risk evaluation, and design verification of the Proteus {3}------------------------------------------------ Patch Including Ingestible Sensor, Proteus Digital Health, Inc. believes that the product is safe and effective, and is substantially equivalent to predicate device.
