The APPRAISE-HRI is a mobile health app intended to provide a means for military healthcare providers to screen U.S. Service members for hemorrhage risk after a physically traumatic event and stratify casualties who need immediate attention and emergency evacuation from those who are injured but may not be at risk for hemorrhage.

The APPRAISE-HRI is not intended to diagnose or direct treatment. Rather, it is intended to provide situational awareness and inform clinical management of potentially hemorrhagic casualties by identifying those at the greatest risk of hemorrhage.

The Automated Processing of the Physiological Registry for Assessment of Injury Severity (APPRAISE)-Hemorrhage Risk Index (HRI) is an Android application developed by the U.S. Army Medical Research and Development Command (USAMRDC) that uses vital-sign data collected from a trauma patient to provide a risk score that stratifies the patient's risk of hemorrhage. When the application runs, heart rate (HR), systolic blood pressure (SBP), and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) vital-sign data are collected from an external monitor [currently only the ZOLL Propaq M (K202375) is supported]. The ZOLL Propaq M monitor connects via Bluetooth with the Android platform running the APPRAISE-HRI application. The APPRAISE-HRI application continuously pulls data from the ZOLL Propaq M monitor to gather the required vital signs (HR, SBP, and DBP) and then runs the hemorrhage risk stratification algorithm to generate an output every one minute.

Once the vital-sign data from the ZOLL Propaq M monitor are transferred, the APPRAISE-HRI provides a stratification of hemorrhage into three Risk Level categories: Low (I), Average (II), or High (II). The APPRAISE-HRI application continuously displays both the input vital signs (HR, SBP, and DBP) and the Risk Level score to the caregiver to provide situational awareness and to inform clinical management of potentially hemorrhagic casualties by identifying those at the greatest risk of hemorrhage.

Ask a specific question about this device

The AHI System is intended for use by healthcare professionals managing patients 18 years or older who are receiving continuous physiological monitoring with electrocardiography (ECG) in hospitals.

AHI provides a frequently updated binary output over time based on pattern analysis of a lead-II ECG waveform intended to describe a patient's hemodynamic status and indicate if a patient is showing signs of hemodynamic stability or instability. Signs of hemodynamic instability (HI) are defined as hypotension (systolic blood pressure

The AHI System is a multiparameter system designed to meet clinicians' need to identify patient hemodynamic status and predict patient hemodynamic instability episodes using two analytics:1. Analytic for Hemodynamic Instability (AHI): Utilizing data from a single existing lead of a non-invasive electrocardiograph (ECG), AH analyzes heart rate variability (HRV) and ECG morphology features to rapidly detect signs of hemodynamic stability and categorize each window of data as either "AHI Stable" or "AHI Unstable." Time trending of AHI outputs is also provided.

2. Analytic for Hemodynamic Instability Predictive Indicator (AH-P); Utilizing AH outputs from up to the most recent 30 minutes of EG data, AH-PI indicates the likelihood of a future episode of hemodynamic instability, defined as ten continuous minutes or more where signs of hemodynamic instability are present.

The provided text details the FDA clearance for the AHI System (v 2.2.0) and references a previous version (K212219) as the predicate device. However, the document primarily focuses on regulatory approval and equivalence, not on a detailed study proving the device meets specific acceptance criteria with performance metrics, sample sizes, expert qualifications, or ground truth establishment.

Therefore, many of the requested details about the study proving the device meets acceptance criteria are not present in the provided text. The text only vaguely refers to "Software: Software verification and validation testing were conducted and documentation was provided... Testing was conducted to ensure the AHI System works as designed." This is insufficient to populate the requested table and further study details.

Based on the provided text, here's what can be extracted and what is missing:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The provided text does not include a table of acceptance criteria or reported device performance metrics such as sensitivity, specificity, or AUC for the AHI System (v 2.2.0) or its predicate. It only states the device "works as designed" following software V&V.

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

The provided text does not specify the sample size used for any test set or the provenance (e.g., country of origin, retrospective/prospective) of the data.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth and Their Qualifications

The provided text does not mention the number or qualifications of experts used to establish ground truth for any test set.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

The provided text does not describe any adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for a test set.
