    Intended Use

    The wrist automatic blood pressure monitor LD-735,LD-752,LD-753 is intended for the non-invasive measurement of systolic and diastolic arterial blood pressure and pulse rate in adults (aged 15 and above).

    Device Description

    The Wrist Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor is an automatic, non-invasive, blood pressure measurement device that is intended to measure the systolic and diastolic arterial blood pressure and pulse rate. The systolic and diastolic pressure are determined using the oscillometric method, where the cuff is inflated with a pump and deflates via an automatic electronic valve. During the inflation measurements, an electric pump within the main unit slowly inflates the wrist cuff, generating cuff pressure which is monitored and from which pulse waveform data is extracted. This waveform data is analyzed by software algorithms within the sensor to determine systolic pressure and diastolic pressure.

    The Wrist Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor consists of two parts: main unit and the wrist cuff. The main unit is mainly composed of pump, valve, PCB, enclosure and LCD. The cuff, which is applicable to wrist circumference approximately between 12.5 and 20.5cm, includes the inflatable bladder and the nylon shell.

    This device adopts the oscillometric technology with Fuzzy Algorithm to measure the arterial blood pressure and pulse rate. The cuff is wrapped around the arm and automatically inflated by the air pump. The sensor of the device catches weak fluctuation of the pressure in the cuff produced by extension and contraction of the artery of the arm in response to each heartbeat. The amplitude of the pressure waves is measured, converted in millimeters of the mercury column, and is displayed by digital value.

    AI/ML Overview

    This FDA 510(k) clearance letter pertains to three models of wrist automatic blood pressure monitors (LD-735, LD-752, LD-753) submitted by HONSUN (Nantong) Co.,Ltd. The clearance is based on the substantial equivalence of these devices to a legally marketed predicate device, the Wrist Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor LD-737 (K131463).

    The primary focus of the submission and the FDA's review is on demonstrating that the new devices do not raise new issues of safety or effectiveness compared to the predicate. The document thoroughly compares the technical characteristics and functions of the subject devices to the predicate.

    Here's an analysis of the requested information based on the provided document:


    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    The document does not explicitly state "acceptance criteria" as a separate, quantitative set of thresholds for clinical performance that the device must meet in a specific study. Instead, the "acceptance criteria" appear to be implicit in the compliance with recognized standards and the declared measuring accuracy specification. The study performed is a non-clinical bench testing comparison to the predicate device and compliance with relevant safety and performance standards.

    Acceptance Criteria (Implicit)Reported Device Performance
    Measuring Accuracy (Static Pressure): $\pm$3mmHg (based on predicate device spec)$\pm$3mmHg for static pressure (Subject devices claim same specification, implying they meet this through compliance with ISO 80601-2-30)
    Measuring Accuracy (Pulse Rate): $\pm$5% of the reading (based on predicate device spec)$\pm$5% of the reading for the pulse rate (Subject devices claim same specification, implying they meet this through compliance with ISO 80601-2-30)
    Biocompatibility: Compliance with ISO 10993-5 and ISO 10993-10All user-directly contacting materials are compliant with ISO 10993-5 and ISO 10993-10 requirements (claimed to be same materials as predicate)
    Electrical Safety: Compliance with ANSI AAMI ES 60601-1Complies with ANSI AAMI ES 60601-1
    Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC): Compliance with IEC 60601-1-2Complies with IEC 60601-1-2
    Home Healthcare Environment: Compliance with IEC 60601-1-11Complies with IEC 60601-1-11
    Automated Non-Invasive Sphygmomanometers: Compliance with ISO 80601-2-30Implied compliance through similar specifications and general statement of performance. The standard itself outlines the performance requirements for such devices.
    Software Verification & Validation: Compliance with FDA guidancePerformed in accordance with "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained In Medical Devices"

    2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

    The document explicitly states that "bench testing" was conducted. However, it does not provide any details on the sample size used for this testing or the specific data provenance (e.g., country of origin, retrospective/prospective). The testing mentioned is primarily related to compliance with various electrical, EMC, and environmental standards, as well as biocompatibility. For measuring accuracy, the statement merely re-iterates the specification as being the same as the predicate, suggesting that this specification was verified during the "bench testing" rather than proven with a new clinical study.


    3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts

    The document does not mention any human experts establishing ground truth for the "test set." The evaluation appears to be based on engineering and laboratory testing for compliance with technical standards and comparison to the predicate device's specifications. This is a blood pressure monitor, not an AI/imaging diagnostic device that would typically require expert ground truth labeling.


    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    Since no human experts were involved in establishing ground truth for a test set in the traditional sense (e.g., for diagnostic accuracy), there was no adjudication method described.


    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 MRMC comparative effectiveness study was done or is applicable to this device. This is a standalone medical device (blood pressure monitor), not an AI-based diagnostic tool intended to assist human readers or clinicians.


    6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done

    The document outlines an assessment of non-clinical testing which included electrical safety, EMC, biocompatibility, and software verification/validation. The device itself is an "automatic blood pressure monitor," meaning its core function is to autonomously measure blood pressure. Therefore, the "bench testing" and compliance with standards like ISO 80601-2-30 (Particular requirements for the basic safety and essential performance of automated non-invasive sphygmomanometers) serve as the standalone performance evaluation for the device's accuracy and safety, without human intervention in the measurement process itself. The document states: "The performance tests demonstrate that the wrist automatic blood pressure monitor performs comparably to the predicate device that is currently marketed for the same intended use." This indicates a standalone performance assessment against established benchmarks (the predicate and relevant standards).


    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used (Expert Consensus, Pathology, Outcomes Data, etc.)

    For the primary function of blood pressure measurement accuracy, the ground truth is implicitly defined by the measurement standards provided in ISO 80601-2-30, which typically refers to reference measurements from a calibrated clinical-grade sphygmomanometer (e.g., mercury sphygmomanometer). For other aspects, the ground truth for compliance is the relevant international and national standards (e.g., ISO 10993 for biocompatibility, IEC 60601 series for electrical safety and EMC).


    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

    Not applicable/Not mentioned. This device is a hardware-based blood pressure monitor using an "oscillometric method with Fuzzy Algorithm." While a "Fuzzy Algorithm" implies some form of computational processing, the document does not indicate that it is a machine learning or AI algorithm that requires a "training set" in the modern sense of deep learning or complex predictive modeling. The algorithm is a fixed part of the device's operation.


    9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

    Not applicable/Not mentioned for the same reasons as #8. If the "Fuzzy Algorithm" involved a "training" or calibration phase during its development, the details are not provided in this regulatory document.

    Intended Use

    Upper Arm Electronic Blood Pressure Monitor, Models FC-BP107, FC-BP123, FC-BP125, FC-BP126,FC-BP127, FC-BP116 are 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 devices' features include irregular pulse rhythm detection during measurement, and will display a alert signal with the reading when irregular heartbeat is detected.

    Device Description

    The subject device, Upper Arm Electronic Blood Pressure Monitor, is an automatic non-invasive blood pressure monitor which can be driven by 4 AA batteries / 4×AAA batteries or type-C USB (optional). It uses an inflatable cuff which is wrapped around the patient's upper arm to measure the systolic and diastolic blood pressure as well as the pulse rate of adult at household, not for neonate or pregnancy.

    The unit uses the oscillometric method of blood pressure measurement. It means the unit detects the movement of your blood through your brachial artery, and converts your blood pressure into a digital reading. The unit is simple to use because a stethoscope is not needed while using an oscillometric monitor.

    The unit stores the blood pressure and pulse rate in the memory after completing a measurement each time. 2x120 sets of measurement values can be stored automatically. The earliest record will be deleted automatically to save the latest measurement value when more than the measurement values. The unit also calculates an average reading based on the values of the latest 3 times measurement.

    This blood pressure monitor has the function of blood pressure classification, which is convenient for you to judge whether your blood pressure is normal or not.

    This blood pressure monitor has voice broadcast function. During measurement and recall the memory, there will be voice operation tips.

    During blood pressure measurement, if the body moves excessively, the body motion detection icon will appear on the display.

    Sleeve with self-check: Detects whether the cuff is worn correctly. If the pressure can exceed 30mmHg within 15 seconds, this Sleeve with self-check icon will light up.

    During the blood pressure measurement decrease process, if a pulse wave is detected, this Pulse Detected Icon will flash at the same frequency as the peak of the pulse wave appears.

    The device detects an Irregular HeartBeat (IRB) (a Heartbeat that is more than 25% slower or 25% faster from the average Heartbeat) two or more times during the measurement, the irregular heartbeat Symbol will appear on the display with the measurement values.

    The device features a built-in "Bluetooth Data Transmission" function, which enables the device automatically transmit measuring results to paired Bluetooth-enabled device(except model FC-BP107).

    There is a maximum pressure safety setting at 300 mmHg, when the pressure is more than 300mmHg, the device will exhaust fast automatically.

    No operation for 2 minute the device will shut down automatically.

    The device includes model FC-BP107, FC-BP123, FC-BP125, FC-BP126, FC-BP127, FC-BP116. Model FC-BP107 and FC-BP116 can be powered by internal battery (4×AA batteries, 6.0V DC) or Type-C port 5VDC 1A, other models can be powered by internal battery (4×AAA batteries, 6.0V DC) or Type-C port 5VDC 1A.

    All models have same MCU, Air pump, Solenoid valve and blood pressure core algorithm except for PCB layout, Display screen, function of the Button, dimension and power supply.

    The subject devices (FC-BP107, FC-BP123, FC-BP125, FC-BP126, FC-BP127, FC-BP116) and the predicate devices (FC-BP100, FC-BP101, FC-BP102, FC-BP110, FC-BP111, FC-BP112) share the same schematic, circuitry, critical components, and measurement algorithm.

    For the differences between the subject device models, the differences are PCB layout difference (physical board shape and/or component arrangement differences), Display screen, function of the Button, dimension, and power supply.

    These changes are mainly cosmetic and do not affect the electrical design, safety, or essential performance of the devices.

Our method to define systolic and diastolic pressure is similar to the auscultatory method but using a semiconductor sensor rather than a stethoscope and mercury manometer. The sensor converts tiny alterations in cuff pressure to electrical signals, by analyzing those signals to define the systolic and diastolic blood pressure and calculating pulse rate, which is a well - known technique in the market called the "oscillometric method". The device detects the appearance of irregular heartbeat during measurement, and the symbol " " is displayed after the measurement. In addition, the device can be used in connection with smart mobile devices running the Microlife Connected Health+ mobile software (App) via Bluetooth. The blood pressure monitor is a fully automatic digital blood pressure measuring device use by adults on the upper arm at home.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided FDA 510(k) clearance letter and summary for the Microlife Upper Arm Automatic Digital Blood Pressure Monitor, Model BP Progress (BP3T01-1B), include information about its testing and equivalence to a predicate device. However, it does not contain explicit acceptance criteria thresholds (e.g., specific accuracy ranges for blood pressure measurements) or detailed results beyond stating that the device "met all relevant requirements" and "results were passing."

    Based on the provided text, here's an attempt to extract the requested information, with notable gaps where details are not explicitly stated.


    Acceptance Criteria and Study Details for Microlife Upper Arm Automatic Digital Blood Pressure Monitor, Model BP Progress (BP3T01-1B)

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    The document does not explicitly state numerical acceptance criteria for blood pressure accuracy (e.g., mean difference and standard deviation standards like those in ISO 81060-2). It only mentions that the device "met all relevant requirements" and "results were passing" according to the relevant standards.

    Feature/MetricAcceptance Criteria (from ISO 81060-2, assumed)Reported Device Performance
    Blood Pressure AccuracyClinical validation of accuracy for oscillometric blood pressure monitors per ANSI/AAMI/ISO 81060-2 (e.g., mean difference $\le \pm 5$ mmHg with a standard deviation $\le 8$ mmHg). Specific thresholds are not detailed in the provided text."Results were passing" according to ISO 81060-2 testing. The device was found to be "substantially equivalent" to the predicate device.
    Irregular Heartbeat DetectionDevice detects and displays warning for irregular heartbeat during measurement. Specific performance metrics (e.g., sensitivity, specificity) for IHD are not provided.Device "detects the appearance of irregular heartbeat during measurement and gives a warning signal with the reading once the irregular heartbeat is detected."
    Cuff Fit/RangeCompatible with arm circumference range of 22-40cm.Verified for arm circumference range of 22-40cm.
    Safety & Essential PerformanceCompliance with various IEC/AAMI/ISO standards for basic safety, essential performance, electromagnetic compatibility, risk management, and biological evaluation."Met all relevant requirements of the aforementioned tests." No safety hazards or violations reported.
    Software ValidationCompliance with FDA guidance for software contained in medical devices (moderate level of concern).Software validation "was conducted in accordance with a moderate level of concern designation."

    2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

    • Sample Size: The document does not specify the exact sample size for the clinical validation study conducted in accordance with ISO 81060-2.
    • Data Provenance: Not specified (e.g., country of origin, retrospective or prospective). Typically, such clinical validations are prospective, but this is not explicitly stated.

    3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications

    • The document does not provide details on the number or qualifications of experts used for establishing ground truth, as is typical for an oscillometric blood pressure monitor validation. For ISO 81060-2, readings are independently taken by multiple trained observers, but their specific qualifications (e.g., experience level) are not detailed here.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    • The document does not explicitly state an adjudication method. For ISO 81060-2, the ground truth (reference blood pressure) is established by two or more trained observers using auscultation. Discrepancies between observers are typically handled by a predefined protocol (e.g., averaging, or a third observer if differences are significant), but these specifics are not mentioned in the provided text.

    5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done

    • No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. This type of study (comparing human readers with and without AI assistance) is not relevant for a standalone blood pressure monitor. The device itself performs the measurement; it does not assist human readers in interpreting complex imagery or clinical data in the way an AI algorithm might.

    6. If a Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Was Done

    • Yes, a standalone performance assessment was effectively done. The clinical validation conducted according to ISO 81060-2 assesses the device's accuracy in measuring blood pressure independently, without human interpretation other than setting up the device and initiating the measurement. The device's measurement algorithm is evaluated directly against a reference standard.

    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

    • Expert Consensus (Auscultation): For blood pressure monitor validation per ISO 81060-2, the ground truth for blood pressure measurements is established through simultaneous or closely timed readings by trained human observers using the auscultatory method (stethoscope and sphygmomanometer/mercury manometer), which is considered the clinical reference standard.

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

    • Not Applicable / Not Provided: The summary indicates that the subject device (BP3T01-1B) uses the "same oscillometric method" and "common blood pressure measurement technological architecture and algorithm" as the predicate device (BP3KV1-5K). It does not describe a new algorithm that required a specific training set. Blood pressure algorithms for oscillometric devices are typically developed based on physiological models and empirical data, rather than being "trained" in the machine learning sense with a discrete "training set" in the context described here. If iterative development was done, the size of data used for such development is not provided.

    9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

    • Not Applicable / Not Provided: As in point 8, the concept of a "training set" with established ground truth as it applies to machine learning models is not explicitly relevant or described for this blood pressure monitor's algorithm development in the provided documentation. The algorithm's fundamental principles are stated to be the same as the predicate device, implying established and verified methods rather than a newly trained model requiring specific ground truth for training.

    Intended Use

    Fully Automatic Electronic Blood Pressure Monitor is for use by medical professionals or at home and is a non-invasive blood pressure measurement system intended to measure the diastolic and systolic blood pressures 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 cuff circumference is limited to 15cm-48cm (approx. 5.9"-18.9").

    Device Description

    Fully Automatic Electronic Blood Pressure Monitor (BP-300C, BP-300CV, BP-300V, BPM1, BPX1, KD-338N, KD-553, KD-557BR, KD-558, KD-558BR, KD-595, KD-5031N, KD-5810, KD-5810B, KD-5811, KD-5811A, KD-5811V, KD-5815, KD-5920, KD-5920L, KD-5920TL, KD-5923, KN-550LT) is designed and manufactured according to IEC 80601-2-30.

    The operational principle is based on Oscillo-metric and silicon integrates pressure sensor technology. It can calculate the systolic and diastolic blood pressure and display the result. The measurements results can also be classified by the function of blood pressure classification indicator. If any irregular heartbeat is detected, it can be shown to the user.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided document is a 510(k) clearance letter for various blood pressure monitors. It outlines the regulatory approval process and compares the new devices to a predicate device. However, it does not contain the detailed acceptance criteria and study results in the format typically used for AI/software devices.

    Specifically, this document describes validation against standards for medical electrical equipment (IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-1-11) and automated non-invasive sphygmomanometers (IEC 80601-2-30, ISO 81060-2). It focuses on the substantial equivalence of the physical blood pressure monitors and their underlying oscillometric and pressure sensor technology, rather than the performance of an AI algorithm based on a test set, ground truth, and expert interpretations.

    Therefore, many of the specific questions about AI/software device validation (e.g., sample size for the test set, data provenance, number of experts for ground truth, MRMC studies, standalone performance, training set details) cannot be answered from this document.

    However, I can extract information related to the performance of the blood pressure monitors themselves, based on the included standards.


    Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance (for Blood Pressure Monitor functionality, not AI):

    Since this is a blood pressure monitor, the primary performance criteria relate to its accuracy in measuring blood pressure and pulse rate, and compliance with relevant safety and performance standards for automated non-invasive sphygmomanometers.

    Unable to Answer from Document (Common for AI/Software Device Submissions, but not for this type of device):

    The following questions are not applicable or cannot be answered from this 510(k) summary because the device described is a physical blood pressure monitor, not an AI/software device that interprets medical images or other complex data requiring expert adjudication, training sets, or MRMC studies.

    • Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:
      • Test Set Size: "A total of 231 patients (107 males and 124 females) were enrolled in the study." This is the clinical study population for blood pressure measurement accuracy.
      • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated (e.g., country of origin). The study is described as a "clinical study," which implies prospective data collection for the purpose of the study.
    • 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):
      • Not applicable. Ground truth for blood pressure measurement is established through a standard auscultation method (manual measurement by medical professionals using a stethoscope and sphygmomanometer), not by interpretation of images by experts.
    • Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:
      • Not applicable. Ground truth is direct measurement by a reference method.
    • 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:
      • Not applicable. This is not an AI-assisted diagnostic device.
    • If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
      • The device is a standalone blood pressure monitor. No human-in-the-loop interaction for interpretation (as in AI devices) is relevant. Its performance is its direct measurement accuracy.
    • The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):
      • Ground Truth: "Standard auscultation method was used as the reference blood pressure monitor measuring." This is the established clinical standard for direct comparison.
    • The sample size for the training set:
      • Not applicable. This is not an AI/machine learning device requiring a training set.
    • How the ground truth for the training set was established:
      • Not applicable.

    ArteVu is intended to noninvasively and continuously measure a patient's blood pressure and pulse rate, which are derived from the pulse pressure waveform using the scientific method of pulse waveform decomposition, for use on adult patients aged between 50 and 86 years who are resting in a supine or similarly reclined position.

    ArteVu is calibrated using an ISO 81060-2 compliant sphygmomanometer. All parameters derived by ArteVu are shown on a compatible remote display monitor (RDDS) via wired transmission. The device is intended for use by clinicians or other properly trained medical personnel in professional healthcare facilities.

    Device Description

    ArteVu is an automatic, continuous, and non-invasive blood pressure (CNBP) monitoring system designed for adult patients at rest and intended for use by medical professionals. The device features a disposable Finger Clip containing a tactile sensor that detects pulse pressure waveforms at the fingertip. ArteVu utilizes the scientific method of pulse waveform decomposition to derive blood pressure and pulse rate, with initial calibration performed using a non-invasive upper arm cuff. These measurements are displayed on a compatible remote monitor, updated every two seconds via wired transmission. ArteVu incorporates technical and physiological alarms to enhance reliability, providing continuous and accurate monitoring while alerting users to abnormal conditions.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided FDA 510(k) clearance letter for ArteVu does not contain the detailed information necessary to fully answer all aspects of your request regarding acceptance criteria and the study proving the device meets these criteria. Specifically, it lacks a table of acceptance criteria with reported device performance metrics and explicit details on how ground truth was established for training and testing sets.

    However, based on the information available, here's a structured response addressing the requested points to the best of what the document provides:

    Acceptance Criteria and Study for ArteVu

    The document states that ArteVu's safety and effectiveness were validated through a clinical study that adhered to the acceptance criteria of ISO 81060-2 for substantial equivalence to the predicate device, CareTaker4. It also incorporated elements from IEEE 1708, ISO 81060-3, ISO 80601-2-61, and IEC 60601-2-27. While it doesn't provide a specific table of numerical acceptance criteria or reported values for ArteVu, it implicitly relies on the standards set by ISO 81060-2 for non-invasive sphygmomanometers. This standard typically defines accuracy requirements for blood pressure measurements.

    1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

    The document does not provide an explicit table with numerical acceptance criteria and ArteVu's reported performance metrics against those criteria. It only states that the study design "adhered to the acceptance criteria of ISO 81060-2."

    If this were a complete submission, such a table would typically include:

    Metric (e.g., Mean Difference, Standard Deviation)Acceptance Criteria (from ISO 81060-2)ArteVu PerformancePass/Fail
    Mean Difference (Device - Reference BP)≤ ±5 mmHg(Not provided)(Not provided)
    Standard Deviation (of Differences)≤ 8 mmHg(Not provided)(Not provided)
    Percentage of measurements within X mmHg(e.g., typically for each 5, 10, 15 mmHg accuracy)(Not provided)(Not provided)

    2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance

    • Sample Size for Test Set: 109 subjects. The document states, "ArteVu's safety and effectiveness have been validated through a clinical study conducted in Taiwan involving 109 subjects." Since this is the primary validation study mentioned, it serves as the test set for the device's performance claims.
    • Data Provenance: The clinical study was "conducted in Taiwan." The data is prospective, as it was collected as part of a clinical study to validate the device.
    • Subject Recruitment: Subjects were recruited from "operating rooms and intensive care units."

    3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

    The document states that ArteVu is calibrated using an "ISO 81060-2 compliant sphygmomanometer" and that the study design "adhered to the acceptance criteria of ISO 81060-2." This strongly implies that the ground truth for blood pressure measurements was established using a reference standard device (the compliant sphygmomanometer) and not necessarily by a panel of human experts. Therefore, the concept of "number of experts" for establishing ground truth via consensus (as might be seen in image-based AI studies) does not directly apply here. The "experts" would be the clinical personnel performing the reference measurements according to the ISO standard.

    4. Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

    Since the ground truth for blood pressure measurements in this context is established by a reference device (ISO 81060-2 compliant sphygmomanometer) and not by subjective interpretation of medical images or conditions by multiple human readers, a numerical adjudication method (like 2+1 or 3+1) is not applicable or mentioned. The accuracy of the sphygmomanometer itself is the standard.

    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, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done as described in the document. This type of study is commonly used for AI in diagnostic imaging (e.g., radiology) where AI assists human interpretation. ArteVu is a continuous non-invasive blood pressure monitoring system, so its primary function is measurement, not assisting human readers in interpreting complex medical data.
    • Therefore, there is no mention of effect size related to human readers improving with or without AI assistance.

    6. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

    • Yes, in essence, a standalone performance assessment was conducted for the device's core function. ArteVu is described as an "automatic, continuous, and non-invasive blood pressure (CNBP) monitoring system." Its performance (accuracy against a reference standard) is evaluated directly, implying it operates as an algorithm determining BP from the pulse waveform. The clinical study validated the device's ability to "achieve comparable safety and effectiveness" to the predicate device, which is a standalone measurement. While it displays measurements for "clinicians or other properly trained medical personnel," the core measurement derivation is done by the device itself, making it a standalone function in terms of its output.

    7. The type of ground truth used

    • The primary ground truth used is a reference standard measurement from an ISO 81060-2 compliant sphygmomanometer. This standard specifies the requirements for non-invasive sphygmomanometers and their clinical validation. The document explicitly states, "ArteVu is calibrated using an ISO 81060-2 compliant sphygmomanometer" and that the "study design adhered to the acceptance criteria of ISO 81060-2."

    8. The sample size for the training set

    • The document does not specify the sample size for the training set used to develop or train the ArteVu algorithm. The 109 subjects mentioned are for the validation/test set. Typical 510(k) summaries often do not disclose detailed training set information unless it's critical to the novelty or specific performance claims of an AI/ML device. While ArteVu uses a "scientific method of pulse waveform decomposition," it's unclear if this involves a machine learning model that requires a dedicated training set as opposed to an algorithm based on established physiological models.

    9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

    • Since the training set size is not provided, the method for establishing its ground truth is also not described in this document. If ArteVu's algorithm involved machine learning, it's highly probable that similar methods (i.e., reference standard measurements from compliant sphygmomanometers) would have been used for training data as for the test data.

    Intended Use

    The Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor is designed to measure blood pressure (systolic and diastolic) and pulse rate in adult patients with arm circumference range between 7.1 inches (18.0 cm) to 16.5 inches (42 cm).

    Device Description

    The Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor (models: CH-S693L, CH-B601L, CP-B01, CH-S603, CH-S691L, CH-B607, CH-B606, CH-S692L, CH-S602, CH-W701L) is a kiosk-type, automated, single upper-arm cuff oscillometric BP monitor developed for measurement of BP and pulse rate in healthcare facility/hospital or at home.

    It is designed for BP measurements on either the right or left upper arm and has a fixed tubular (Arm barrel) opening to insert the user's arm, with an integral single-arm cuff, which when inflated surrounds the upper arm. It is suitable for arm circumference range 18~42 cm. The device has an elbow groove to ensure correct positioning of the arm and measures BP during inflation. A wide LED screen presents systolic and diastolic BP, heart rate and time of measurement. After the user pushes the start button, the cuff is inflated automatically by an internal pump, the systolic and diastolic blood pressures are determined by oscillometric method.

    Principle of operation:

    The product uses the Oscillometric Measuring method to detect blood pressure.

    When the user presses the "START" button to initiate the measurement, the winding mechanism, driven by a geared motor, begins to operate. It stops winding when it starts to encounter resistance from the arm. At this point, the cuff is adapted to the arm size. Subsequently, the cuff is automatically inflated by an internal pump to reach a pressure above systolic pressure, no blood flow occurs through the artery. As the cuff is deflated below the systolic pressure, the reducing pressure exerted on the artery allows blood to flow through it and sets up a detectable vibration in the arterial wall. When the cuff pressure falls below the patient's diastolic pressure, blood flows smoothly through the artery in the usual pulses, without any vibration being set up in the wall. Vibrations occur at any point where the cuff pressure is sufficiently high that the blood has to push the arterial wall open in order to flow through the artery. The vibrations are transferred from the arterial wall, through the air inside the cuff, into a transducer in the monitor that converts the measurements into electrical signals. Hence when it starts inflating the arm cuff, meanwhile, the unit detects pressure oscillations generated by beat-to-beat pulsatile, which is used to determine the systolic and diastolic pressure, and pulse rate.

    AI/ML Overview

    This document is a 510(k) clearance letter for an Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor, which means it describes a non-invasive blood pressure measurement system, not an AI/ML device in the context of the requested questions. The provided text is a standard FDA 510(k) summary for a traditional medical device and does not contain information about AI model performance, expert ground truth adjudication (for AI), or MRMC studies.

    Therefore, many of the requested fields are not applicable or cannot be extracted from the provided text because they pertain to AI/ML device studies, which is not what this document describes.

    However, I can extract information related to the device's performance based on the provided clinical accuracy testing for the Automatic Blood Pressure Monitor.

    Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance (Non-AI/ML Device):

    The device's clinical accuracy was tested according to ISO 81060-2 Third edition 2018-11 Amendment 1 2020-01. The document explicitly states:

    "The test data showed the clinical accuracy of the subject device complied with the requirements of ISO 81060-2 Third edition 2018-11 Amendment 1 2020-01."

    This standard outlines the requirements for clinical investigations of intermittent automated measurement type non-invasive sphygmomanometers. While the specific numerical performance metrics (e.g., mean difference and standard deviation of differences between device and reference measurements) are not quantitatively stated in the summary table, the statement of compliance confirms that the device met the acceptance criteria defined by this international standard for blood pressure measurement accuracy.

    The summary also specifies instrumental accuracy for blood pressure and pulse rate:

    • Blood Pressure Measurement Accuracy: ±3 mmHg
    • Pulse rate measurement accuracy: ±5%

    Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance (as inferred from the document):

    Acceptance CriterionReported Device Performance
    Clinical Accuracy (ISO 81060-2:2018+A1:2020)Complied with the requirements of ISO 81060-2 Third edition 2018-11 Amendment 1 2020-01
    Blood Pressure Measurement Accuracy±3 mmHg (instrumental accuracy)
    Pulse Rate Measurement Accuracy±5% (instrumental accuracy)

    Regarding the specific questions about AI/ML studies:

    1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance: See table above. More specific quantitative clinical performance results (e.g., mean difference and standard deviation of differences of BP readings compared to reference) are not explicitly detailed in the provided summary but are implied by the compliance statement.
    2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:
      • Test Set Sample Size: 85 subjects.
      • Data Provenance: Not specified (e.g., country of origin). It's a clinical trial, implying prospective data collection for the validation study.
    3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable. This is for a traditional blood pressure monitor validated against a reference sphygmomanometer (aneroid/auscultation method), not an AI/ML device requiring expert consensus for ground truth. The reference device was a "CM-BPM-D Aneroid sphygmomanometer" by Shanghai Caremate Medical Device Co. Ltd.
    4. Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set: Not applicable for this type of device and study. The accuracy is determined by comparison to the reference measurements.
    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: Not applicable. This is a traditional medical device, not an AI/ML product assisting human readers.
    6. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: The device itself is a standalone automatic blood pressure monitor. Its performance is measured directly, not as an algorithm's output to be interpreted by a human.
    7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc): The ground truth for the clinical accuracy study was established by measurements from an "Aneroid sphygmomanometer" using the "Aneroid/auscultation method." This is the established reference method for validating automatic BP monitors per ISO 81060-2.
    8. The sample size for the training set: Not applicable. This is a traditional device; there is no "training set" in the AI/ML sense. The device's measurement algorithm is predetermined and fixed.
    9. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable. No AI model training set.

    The seven models have the same intended use, working principle, measuring range, accuracy, cuff, and conformance standard; only appearance have some difference.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided FDA 510(k) clearance letter and synopsis for the Electronic Sphygmomanometers (K250185) primarily focus on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device, rather than detailing a specific clinical study with granular acceptance criteria for an AI-powered diagnostic device. The application is for a standard medical device (blood pressure monitor), not an AI/ML-driven diagnostic tool. Therefore, many of the requested points for an AI study (e.g., number of experts for ground truth, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, effect size of AI assistance, training set details) are not applicable or provided in this document.

    However, I can extract and infer information relevant to the device's accuracy and performance validation using the provided text, particularly concerning the mentioned standards and the comparative clinical study.

    Here's an attempt to describe the acceptance criteria and study as best as possible given the provided non-AI-specific document:


    Device: Electronic Sphygmomanometers (ZH-X9, ZH-X12, ZH-X16, ZH-X17, ZH-X18, ZH-X19, ZH-X23, ZH-X24)

    Study Type: Comparative Clinical Study (for substantial equivalence to a predicate device and mercury sphygmomanometer) and Non-Clinical Performance Testing.

    Regulation/Standard for Accuracy: IEC 80601-2-30, ISO 81060-2 (including Amendment 1(2020)), and FDA Guidance No-Invasive Blood Pressure (NIBP) Monitor Guidance.

    1. Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    The core acceptance criterion for non-invasive blood pressure monitors, as per ISO 81060-2 (which is explicitly listed as a standard the device complies with), relies on statistical analysis of difference between the device's readings and a reference standard (usually mercury sphygmomanometer readings or an established method). The key metrics are:

    • Mean Difference (Bias): The average difference between the device reading and the reference reading.
    • Standard Deviation of the Differences: A measure of the spread of these differences.

    The ISO 81060-2 standard (for clinical validation of automated measurement type) typically requires:

    • Mean difference between the test device and reference measurement: $\leq \pm 5$ mmHg
    • Standard deviation of the differences (SD): $\leq 8$ mmHg
    Acceptance Criteria (Based on ISO 81060-2)Reported Device Performance (from "Accuracy" section)
    Mean difference $\leq \pm 5$ mmHgPressure: $\pm 3$ mmHg ($\pm 0.4$ kPa) or 2% of the reading
    Standard deviation $\leq 8$ mmHg(Not explicitly stated, but implied compliance with ISO 81060-2)
    Pulse Rate Accuracy: $\leq \pm 5$%Pulse Rate: $\pm 5$%

    Note: The reported accuracy of $\pm 3$ mmHg or 2% of the reading for pressure is a general accuracy specification, not necessarily the mean difference and standard deviation from the clinical validation as per ISO 81060-2. However, achieving $\pm 3$ mmHg as a general accuracy implies that the device is likely to meet or exceed the ISO 81060-2 criteria. The document states compliance with ISO 81060-2, meaning it passed these criteria.

    2. Sample Size and Data Provenance

    • Test Set (Clinical Study): The document states, "We conducted a comparative clinical study to verify the performance of the proposed device and predicate device as well as a mercury sphygmomanometer according to ISO 81060-2."
      • Sample Size: ISO 81060-2 typically requires a minimum of 85 subjects for clinical validation. The document does not explicitly state the exact sample size used in their study, but implies it met the requirements of the standard it followed.
      • Data Provenance: Not specified (e.g., country of origin). The study is described as a "comparative clinical study," which generally implies a prospective data collection for the purpose of the validation.

    3. Number/Qualifications of Experts for Ground Truth

    • Not Applicable / Not Specified: For a blood pressure monitor, the "ground truth" for blood pressure measurements is typically established using a reference standard like a mercury sphygmomanometer or an auscultatory method performed by trained observers, as outlined in ISO 81060-2. This is a measurement comparison, not an expert-based image interpretation or diagnosis that would require multiple reading experts in the AI sense.

    4. Adjudication Method

    • Not Applicable / Not Specified: Since this is a direct physiological measurement comparison, adjudication methods commonly seen in AI/image interpretation studies (e.g., 2+1, 3+1 consensus) are not relevant here. The ISO 81060-2 standard defines precise measurement protocols by trained observers for comparison.

    5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

    • Not Applicable: This type of study is relevant for AI-assisted diagnostic aids where human readers' performance (e.g., accuracy, efficiency) is evaluated with and without AI. This device is a standalone measurement tool, not an AI diagnostic aid for human readers.

    6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance

    • Implicitly Done: The "Performance Data" section explicitly states compliance with "IEC 80601-2-30" and "ISO 81060-2." These standards define the requirements for the automated (standalone) measurement of non-invasive blood pressure, requiring the device algorithm (oscillometric technique) to provide accurate pressure readings independently. The clinical study compares the device's automated readings against a reference standard.

    7. Type of Ground Truth Used

    • Reference Standard Measurement: The ground truth for blood pressure measurements was established using a mercury sphygmomanometer (or an equivalent valid reference method) during the comparative clinical study, as per the ISO 81060-2 standard. This is a direct, objective physiological measurement.

    8. Sample Size for the Training Set

    • Not Applicable: This is a traditional medical device (blood pressure monitor) that utilizes a deterministic oscillometric algorithm, not a machine learning or AI model that requires a "training set" in the context of deep learning. Its algorithm is based on established engineering principles for detecting pressure oscillations.

    9. How Ground Truth for Training Set Was Established

    • Not Applicable: As there is no "training set" for a machine learning model, this point is not relevant for this device.

    Intended Use

    The Aktiia G0 Blood pressure monitoring system consists of a wrist worn monitor and an oscillometric cuff. The system is intended for measuring blood pressure and pulse rate based on using a Pulse Wave technique in adults aged from 22 to 59 years old with wrist circumference ranging from 14 cm to 21 cm following a calibration process (every 24 hours) using the oscillometric blood pressure cuff.

    The Aktiia G0 Blood pressure monitoring system is intended for spot-checking of adult patients for home use.

    Device Description

    The Aktiia G0 Blood Pressure Monitoring System measures blood pressure and pulse rate (spot check) based on the analysis of Photoplethysmography (PPG) signals. Aktiia G0 Blood Pressure Monitoring System consists of the following components:

    • Bracelet
    • Charger (for the Bracelet)
    • Aktiia Init I1 (cuff)
    • Mobile App
    • Backend Software and Algorithm (in the Cloud)

    The Aktiia G0 Blood Pressure Monitoring System hardware component, referred to as the bracelet, is responsible for PPG data acquisition on the user's wrist. It is composed of a data logging unit called the pod and of a detachable strap that is intended to secure the pod to the user's wrist. The pod uses the bracelet's electronics and PPG sensor. The bracelet's internal battery is located inside the pod and is recharged using a pin to USB docking station using a provided charger.

    A calibration process (also referred to as initialization) is required prior to converting blood pressure values from optical data. This calibration process uses reference blood pressure values measured with an oscillometric blood pressure monitor (cuff) also referred to as Aktiia Init I1.

    The Aktiia G0 Blood Pressure Monitoring System includes a mobile application for displaying data to the user and uses a cloud server referred to as the backend for data storage. The backend also hosts the algorithm which converts optical data generated by the bracelet into blood pressure and pulse rate data.

    AI/ML Overview

    The FDA 510(k) clearance letter for the Aktiia G0 Blood Pressure Monitoring System (K250415) provides details on the acceptance criteria and the study conducted to prove the device meets these criteria.

    Here's a breakdown of the requested information:

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    The core acceptance criterion for blood pressure measurement accuracy for both the G0 System and the Aktiia Init I1 cuff is compliance with ISO 81060-2. For pulse rate, a specific RMSE threshold is provided.

    Acceptance CriterionReported Device Performance
    Blood Pressure Accuracy: Complies with ISO 81060-2:2018 (for both G0 System and Aktiia Init I1 cuff)"When comparing BP measurements of reference methods to the G0 Blood Pressure Monitoring System and the Aktiia Init I1 achieved the requirements of ISO 81060-2:2018 and accurately displayed blood pressure."
    Pulse Rate Accuracy: RMSE ≤ 3 beats per minute (bpm) when compared to ECG readings.Not explicitly stated if this threshold was met, but the study was designed to achieve it: "The primary endpoint required that the root mean square error (RMSE) of pulse rate measurements remain ≤3 beats per minute (bpm) when compared to ECG readings." The implication is that the primary endpoint was satisfied for clearance.

    2. Sample Sizes and Data Provenance

    • Test Set Sample Size:
      • Blood Pressure: The document states that "Clinical validations of blood pressure per ISO 81060-2:2018 were performed." ISO 81060-2:2018 generally requires a minimum of 85 subjects for accuracy testing, evenly distributed across specific blood pressure ranges. While the exact number isn't explicitly stated for the BP validation itself, the pulse rate study involved 85 participants, and it's highly likely that the blood pressure validation used the same or a very similar cohort given it was also a clinical investigation aiming for ISO compliance.
      • Pulse Rate: 85 participants were included in the final dataset for the pulse rate validation study (NCT06565780), with 1273 simultaneous pulse rate measurements collected.
    • Data Provenance: The study aimed for "a representative US population cohort," which implies the data originated from the United States. The study was a prospective clinical investigation (NCT06565780).

    3. Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth

    The document does not explicitly state the number of experts or their specific qualifications for establishing the ground truth for the blood pressure measurements. However, for blood pressure, the ground truth reference method was double auscultation. This method inherently involves human observers (typically trained medical professionals) taking readings.

    For pulse rate, the ground truth was an electrocardiogram (ECG), which is a gold standard instrumental measurement and does not inherently require expert human interpretation for establishing pulse rate.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    • Blood Pressure: The ground truth was established by "double auscultation." This method typically involves two independent observers taking blood pressure readings, and potentially a third if there is a significant discrepancy. The document does not specify the exact adjudication protocol (e.g., 2+1, 3+1), but conformity to ISO 81060-2 implies a standardized, typically adjudicated, process for reference measurements.
    • Pulse Rate: The ground truth was an ECG. Adjudication for instrumental measurements like ECG usually refers to the process of interpreting or reviewing the ECG waveform, but for simple pulse rate determination, the automated measurement from the ECG device is considered the ground truth. There is no mention of human adjudication for the ECG-derived pulse rate.

    5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

    No, a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not explicitly mentioned for the Aktiia G0 Blood Pressure Monitoring System. The device is a "blood pressure monitoring system," not an interpretation device like an AI for medical imaging. The evaluation focuses on the accuracy of the device's measurements against established reference methods, not on how human readers' performance is improved by AI assistance in diagnosis or interpretation.

    6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance

    Yes, a standalone performance evaluation was conducted. The clinical validation studies (ISO 81060-2 for BP, NCT06565780 for PR) assessed the accuracy of the Aktiia G0 system's measurements (algorithm output) against reference methods (double auscultation for BP, ECG for PR).

    7. Type of Ground Truth Used

    • Blood Pressure: Expert consensus via double auscultation (a highly standardized and accepted clinical method for reference blood pressure measurement).
    • Pulse Rate: Instrumental data (electrocardiogram - ECG), which is considered a gold standard for heart rate measurement.

    8. Sample Size for the Training Set

    The document does not provide information regarding the sample size used for the training set of the algorithm. It only details the clinical validation (test) set.

    9. How Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

    The document does not provide information on how the ground truth for the training set was established. It only details the establishment of ground truth for the test set used in the clinical validation studies. Given that the algorithm is described as "Pulse-Wave Analysis (PWA)," it would conceptually involve matching optical signal data to simultaneously acquired reference blood pressure measurements (likely oscillometric cuff or arterial line) to train the model, but these specifics are not in the provided text.
