Re: K243566
Trade/Device Name: CardioTag
Regulation Number: 21 CFR 870.2320
Name: Ballistocardiograph or seismocardiogram (SCG)
Classification Name: Ballistocardiograph (21 CFR 870.2320
The CardioTag device is a tool that can be used to record, display and transfer vibrational waveforms produced by the heart contractions and transmitted to the chest as well as single-channel electrocardiogram (ECG) rhythms and heart rate. It also measures pulse waveform and pulse rate by photoplethysmograph (PPG). The CardioTag may be used as a tool to measure the timing of the aortic valve opening and closing in the cardiac cycle. The CardioTag is intended for spot-checking of adult patients in clinics or at home under the care of a physician. The data from the CardioTag is intended for use by healthcare professionals as an aid to diagnosis and treatment.
The CardioTag device consists of a rechargeable wearable that is responsible for collecting raw cardiac signals from a single patient, and produces a spot-check report of a patient's electrocardiogram (ECG), photoplethysmogram (PPG), and seismocardiogram (SCG) signals and heart rate. To generate the report, the user places the wearable on the sternum and starts a 2 minute recording session for waveform output and heart rate /pulse rate calculation. The wearable contains electrodes to measure single-lead ECG, light sources and optical sensor arrays to measure PPG, and an accelerometer to measure vibrational waveforms from the heart's contractions transferred to the chest wall (SCG). Sensor data is then transferred for storage and processing to a cloud-based backend). The backend uses the recording to calculate heart rate and pulse rate and then visualizes the waveforms and heart rate in the format of a downloadable PDF report for the clinician. The SCG signal is intended to be used for manual interpretation by the clinician in conjunction with other information from the device. The device may be used as a tool to measure the timing of the aortic valve opening and closing in the cardiac cycle.
The provided FDA 510(k) clearance letter and supporting documentation for the CardioTag device does not contain enough information to fully answer all aspects of the acceptance criteria and study design, specifically regarding the detailed performance metrics, sample sizes for test and training sets, expert adjudication details, and the specific ground truth establishment methods.
However, I can extract and infer information from the available text to address as many points as possible.
Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and study details based on the provided document:
Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance
The document states that "The primary endpoints for the CardioTag study were all met. The study results demonstrated that the CardioTag performs at an acceptable level when compared to commercially available devices with high accuracy." While this confirms the device met its performance criteria, the specific metrics and numerical targets are not explicitly stated in the provided text.
Based on the device's functions, the implied acceptance criteria would relate to the accuracy of:
- ECG waveform recording and display
- Heart rate calculation (from ECG)
- PPG waveform recording and display
- Pulse rate calculation (from PPG)
- SCG waveform recording and display
- Measurement of aortic valve opening and closing timing (from SCG)
Since the document states "The primary endpoints for the CardioTag study were all met," we can infer that the reported device performance met or exceeded the (unspecified) acceptance thresholds for these functions, demonstrating high accuracy when compared to commercially available devices.
Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance (Inferred/General)
Acceptance Criteria (Inferred) | Reported Device Performance (General) |
---|---|
Accuracy of ECG waveform recording and display | Demonstrated high accuracy when compared to commercially available devices. |
Accuracy of Heart Rate calculation (from ECG) | Demonstrated high accuracy when compared to commercially available devices. |
Accuracy of PPG waveform recording and display | Demonstrated high accuracy when compared to commercially available devices. |
Accuracy of Pulse Rate calculation (from PPG) | Demonstrated high accuracy when compared to commercially available devices. |
Accuracy of SCG waveform recording and display | Demonstrated high accuracy when compared to commercially available devices. |
Accuracy in measuring aortic valve timing (from SCG) | Demonstrated high accuracy when compared to commercially available devices. |
Study Proving Device Meets Acceptance Criteria
The document describes a clinical study that was conducted to validate the CardioTag device.
-
Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance:
- Test Set Sample Size: The exact numerical sample size for the clinical study is not specified in the provided document. It only states, "The CardioTag device has been clinically tested and validated in the US."
- Data Provenance: The data was collected from subjects recruited in the US. The study was prospective as it involved recruiting subjects for clinical testing. It also states, "subjects were recruited based on US demographics to present proper race and ethnicity to ensure diverse representation."
-
Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications:
- The document does not specify the number of experts or their qualifications used to establish ground truth for the clinical study. It only mentions that the data is "intended for use by healthcare professionals as an aid to diagnosis and treatment" and the SCG signal is for "manual interpretation by the clinician." This implies that expert interpretation would be crucial for ground truth, but the details are missing.
-
Adjudication Method for the Test Set:
- The document does not specify any adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) used for the test set.
-
Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study:
- The document does not mention a specific MRMC comparative effectiveness study. The study "compared [CardioTag] to commercially available devices" to demonstrate accuracy, which suggests a comparative element, but not necessarily an MRMC study assessing human reader performance with and without AI assistance.
- Therefore, no effect size for human reader improvement with AI vs. without AI assistance is reported in this document.
-
Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Study:
- The document does not explicitly describe a standalone algorithm-only performance study. The description of the device heavily emphasizes the output for "manual interpretation by the clinician" and "aid to diagnosis and treatment by healthcare professionals," suggesting a human-in-the-loop workflow.
- However, the validation of "ECG Validation," "PPG Validation," and "SCG Validation" in the performance testing section, which were "Bench-testing (non-clinical)," might imply a component of standalone algorithm evaluation of signal quality and derived parameters. The clinical study, by nature of validating against commercially available devices, would involve the device's outputs without necessarily detailing a separate "algorithm only" performance metric without human review.
-
Type of Ground Truth Used:
- The document implies that ground truth was established by comparison to "commercially available devices" which served as the reference standard. This suggests a clinical comparator ground truth rather than pathology or long-term outcomes data. For parameters like heart rate and pulse rate, the ground truth would likely come from validated measurements by the comparator devices. For waveform interpretation (ECG, SCG), expert consensus or comparison to gold-standard clinical systems would be the likely ground truth, though not explicitly stated.
-
Sample Size for the Training Set:
- The document does not specify the sample size used for the training set.
-
How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established:
- The document does not specify how ground truth for the training set was established. Given the nature of a 510(k) submission, this information might be in a more detailed study report not included in this summary.

| Phonocardiograph | I.
The intended use of the device is to acquire and record the 3 different types of heart bio-signals (ECG, PCG, and MCG) and combine the results into a contiguous presentation as an aid to diagnostic interpretation by a Physician in a clinical setting.
The indication for use is as ...
a. a Standard 12 Lead Diagnostic ECG
b. an aid to identify events in the cardiac cycle
c. an aid to detect S1 & S2 hearts sounds and murmurs.
Any diagnostic interpretation is only significant when used in conjunction with physician over-read as well as consideration of all other relevant patient data.
The Cardio-TriTest is on a prescription basis by a Certified Medical Practitioner.
The Cardio-TriTest v6.5 (CTT) is three devices in one; combining a 12-Lead Electrocardiograph (ECG), a 4 Lead Phonocardiograph and a 4 lead Mechanocardiograph. The device will acquire all three types of bio-signals during the same non-invasive test procedure. The three types of signals are synchronized and outputted on the same timeline making it easier for general practitioners to visually determine a patient's current heart health.
The ECG component is a Standard 12-Lead ECG, conformant with EN IEC 60601-2-25 standards.
The CTT v6.5 device uses approved Standard 12-Lead FDA/CE cables.
The CTT includes 4 Kombi-Sensors that include combine PCG/MCG functionality.
The PCG component consists of 4 electronic stethoscopes into one Phono recording device.
PCG sensors are equipped with diaphragms and non-chill rings.
The MCG component consists of 4 MCG recording devices integrated into the Kombi-Sensor housing (PCG and MCG in same Sensor Housing).
The PCG and MCG signal verification can be found in Annex E - Signal Testing.
The PCG and MCG sensors are housed in common sensor housing, Kombi-Sensor, this allows the Kombi-sensor of being positioned/located in one of the 4 standard auscultation points on the thoracic wall.
The combined PCG/MCG sensors record their signals when positioned on the four primary auscultation points on the thoracic wall.
The provided text describes the Cardio-TriTest v6.5 device and its substantial equivalence to a predicate device (Cardio-TriTest v5.5) but does not contain information about a specific study designed to prove the device meets acceptance criteria related to its diagnostic performance (e.g., accuracy of identifying cardiac events or heart sounds).
The document focuses on:
- Device Description and Intended Use: The device acquires and records three types of bio-signals (ECG, PCG, MCG) and combines them for diagnostic interpretation by a physician.
- Technological Characteristics and Equivalence: It compares the v6.5 device to its predicate (v5.5), highlighting features and functions.
- Safety and Performance (General): It states that the device meets safety standards (IEC 60601-1, EN IEC 60601-2-25) and has undergone "extensive safety and performance testing" and "software validation."
Missing from the text is a detailed account of a study specifically designed to establish acceptance criteria for the diagnostic interpretation aid and subsequent performance evaluation against those criteria. Therefore, most of the requested information cannot be extracted directly from the provided document.
However, based on the general statements about safety and performance, and the comparison to the predicate device, we can infer some aspects and highlight what's missing.
Here's a breakdown of what can and cannot be answered from the provided text:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
The document does not specify quantitative acceptance criteria for diagnostic performance (e.g., sensitivity, specificity for detecting cardiac events or murmurs). It mentions that the ECG component is conformant with EN IEC 60601-2-25 standards, which implies compliance with the technical requirements of that standard. Similarly, it states the device "has passed all the required safety standards and has also been subjected to extensive safety and performance testing." However, specific performance metrics against defined acceptance criteria are not reported for its diagnostic aid function.
Acceptance Criteria (Implied/Inferred) | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|
ECG Functionality: | |
Conformity to EN IEC 60601-2-25 | "Conformant with EN IEC 60601-2-25 standards." |
Electrical Safety (IEC 60601-1) | "Has passed all the required safety standards." |
EMC (EN IEC 60601-1-2) | Compliance met. |
Usability (IEC 60601-1-6) | Compliance met. |
Overall Device Safety: | |
Compliance with IEC 60601-1 | "meets the Standard as per IEC 60601-1" |
PCG/MCG Functionality: | |
Signal verification | "Signal verification can be found in Annex E - Signal Testing." (Details not provided in this extract) |
Performance against predicate | "substantially equivalent to their corresponding FDA cleared predicate device" |
Software Validation: | |
Functional and performance specifications met | "software validation corresponding to each functional aspect of the device, to ensure that all safety and performance specifications were met." |
Intended Use (Aid to Diagnosis): | No specific quantitative diagnostic performance metrics or acceptance criteria are provided. The device is described as an "aid to diagnostic interpretation by a Physician." |
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
This information is not provided in the document. While "extensive safety and performance testing" is mentioned, details about specific test sets for evaluating diagnostic aid performance are absent.
3. 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)
This information is not provided. The document states that "Any diagnostic interpretation is only significant when used in conjunction with physician over-read," implying human interpretation, but does not detail how ground truth was established for performance testing of the aid itself.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
This information is not provided.
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
An MRMC study is not explicitly mentioned or described. The document focuses on substantial equivalence based on technological characteristics and general safety/performance, not on comparative effectiveness against humans with or without the device.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
The device is positioned as an "aid to diagnostic interpretation by a Physician." This implies it is not intended for standalone diagnostic use. Therefore, a standalone performance study for diagnosis (without human-in-the-loop) is unlikely to be relevant to its intended use and is not described in the document. The "software validation" mentioned focuses on meeting "safety and performance specifications," likely referring to technical signal acquisition and processing rather than diagnostic accuracy.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
This information is not provided.
8. The sample size for the training set
This information is not provided. The document mentions "software validation" but does not detail machine learning models or their training data.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
This information is not provided.

Classification: | Name: Ballistocardiograph
Product Code: DXR
Regulation No: 21 CFR 870.2320
CorSens Device records vibrational waveforms produced by the heart contractions and transmitted to the chest wall. CorSens Device may be used as a tool to measure the timing of part of the cardiac cycle for adult population.
CorSens Device senses and analyzes the mechanical movement of the heart. This is accomplished by 3 standard ECG electrodes for the ECG signal and with a suitable miniature electronic accelerometer for the mechanical motions.
The CorSens Device, a Ballistocardiograph, records vibrational waveforms produced by heart contractions to measure the timing of part of the cardiac cycle in adults.
Here's an analysis of its acceptance criteria and the supporting study:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The document does not explicitly state quantitative acceptance criteria in a table format. However, it indicates a high-level performance expectation and makes a direct comparison to an established clinical method.
Acceptance Criterion (Inferred from text) | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|
Ability to provide accurate timing of part of the cardiac cycle events. | "CorSens Device can provide accurate timing of part of the event of the cardiac cycle, at least as accurate as the echocardiogram." |
Safety and efficacy comparable to predicate devices. | "Results of tests and validations, performed with the proposed CorSens Device demonstrates that it is as safe and effective as its primary predicate device, without raising any new safety and/or effectiveness concerns." |
2. Sample Size and Data Provenance for Test Set
The provided document does not explicitly detail a specific 'test set' with a defined sample size for a clinical study comparing the CorSens Device to an echocardiogram. It refers to a "comparison test" with echocardiogram, stating: "In addition to the verification and validation testing, a comparison test with the current common clinical practice to measure the timing of the events in the cardiac cycle, an Echocardiogram, was conducted."
Without further information, the specific sample size, country of origin, or whether the data was retrospective or prospective cannot be determined from this document.
3. Number and Qualifications of Experts for Ground Truth
The document does not specify the number or qualifications of experts used to establish ground truth for any test set. The ground truth (echocardiogram measurements) would typically be established by trained sonographers and/or cardiologists.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
The document does not specify an adjudication method for the comparison test with echocardiogram.
5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study
The document does not mention a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study. Therefore, information on the effect size of human readers improving with or without AI assistance is not applicable or provided.
6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance Study
The document indicates that "the proposed CorSens Device safety and the efficacy of the system were established by performance lab tests and Software V&V." While this suggests evaluation of the device's technical performance in isolation, it does not specifically describe a 'standalone (algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance)' study in the way it might be discussed for an AI-driven diagnostic algorithm. The device is a measurement tool, and its 'performance' inherently involves its ability to capture and process data to produce timing measurements.
7. Type of Ground Truth Used
For the comparison test, the ground truth used was echocardiogram. The text explicitly states: "a comparison test with the current common clinical practice to measure the timing of the events in the cardiac cycle, an Echocardiogram, was conducted."
8. Sample Size for the Training Set
The document does not mention any specific training set or its sample size. This implies that the device's core functionality does not rely on a machine learning model that requires a discrete training phase with labeled data in the way many contemporary AI devices do. The device's operation is based on established biophysical principles of measuring vibrational waveforms.
9. How Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
Since no training set is mentioned as part of the device's development or validation process in this document, the method for establishing its ground truth is not applicable or provided. The device likely operates on fixed algorithms rather than a trained machine learning model.

It aims to acquire and record three types of bio-signals and combine them into a contiguous presentation to aid diagnostic interpretation by a physician.
Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and study information:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
The document does not explicitly state quantitative acceptance criteria for device performance. Instead, it focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices. For parts of the device where specific standards apply (like the ECG), it states compliance.
Reported Device Performance:
The document primarily focuses on establishing "substantial equivalence" based on technological characteristics and safety. It states:
- ECG Component: "The ECG component is a Standard 12-Lead ECG, conformant with IEA60601-2-25 standards." and "In accordance with FDA guidelines, the ECG component is conformant with IEA 60601-2-25 (2014) Diagnostic ElectroCardiographs (ECG)."
- MCG Component: "The MCG functionality... is substantially equivalent to the DIGITAL BALLISTOCARDIOGRAPH, MODEL DGB 300."
- PCG Component: "The PCG functionality... is substantially equivalent to the Zargis Acoustic Cardioscan-ZAC."
- Safety: "Being a 3-in-1 device, the safety of the device meets the Standard as per IEA60601-1, in accordance with the standards set in 60601-2-25 for Diagnostic ECG and applies equally to the two other functional aspects of the device." And "The Cardio-TriTest device has passed all the required safety standards and has also been subjected to extensive safety, environmental and performance testing."
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
The document does not specify a sample size for a test set or the data provenance for performance evaluation. The focus is on demonstrating compliance with standards and substantial equivalence rather than a clinical performance study with a specific test set.
3. 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)
This information is not provided in the document. The document refers to "physician over-read" for diagnostic interpretation but does not detail how ground truth for any testing was established.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
This information is not provided in the document.
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
An MRMC comparative effectiveness study is not mentioned in the document. The device is presented as an aid to diagnostic interpretation, but no study comparing human readers with and without the device's assistance is described.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
The device is explicitly stated as an "aid to diagnostic interpretation by a Physician" and that "Any diagnostic interpretation is only significant when used in conjunction with physician over-read." This indicates it's not intended for standalone (algorithm-only) performance, and no standalone performance study is described.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
The document does not describe the type of ground truth used for any performance evaluation.
8. The sample size for the training set
The document does not mention a training set or its sample size. The description centers on the device's technological characteristics and comparison to predicate devices, not on a machine learning model that would typically require a training set.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
Since no training set is mentioned, the method for establishing its ground truth is not provided.
Summary of what's provided related to device performance and criteria:
The document focuses on establishing the Cardio-TriTest's substantial equivalence to existing legally marketed devices based on:
- Compliance with recognized standards:
- ECG component: IEA60601-2-25 (2014) Diagnostic ElectroCardiographs (ECG).
- Overall safety: IEA60601-1 and related collateral standards (IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-1-6, EC53, ISO 13485, ISO 14971).
- Technological characteristics comparison: Detailed feature-by-feature comparison with predicate devices (DIGITAL BALLISTOCARDIOGRAPH, MODEL DGB 300 and Zargis Acoustic Cardioscan-ZAC), demonstrating that differences "do not raise any significant concern with respect to the safety or on the effectiveness of the operating results."
- Signal validation/comparison documents: "The MCG signal validation is in the Annex B of this application." and "The PCG signal comparison document to the Reference device is in Annex A of this application." and "The MCG signal comparison document to the CTT PCG part is in Annex B of this application." (Note: these annexes are referenced but not included in the provided text).
In essence, the "study" proving the device meets acceptance criteria appears to be a demonstration of compliance with relevant safety and performance standards for its individual components (ECG, PCG, MCG) and a detailed comparison of its technological features to predicate devices to establish substantial equivalence, rather than a clinical trial with specific performance metrics against a defined ground truth.

Re: K081603
Trade/Device Name: dBG 300 Digital Ballistocardiograph Regulatory Number: 21 CFR 870.2320
The dBG 300 records vibrational waveforms produced by the hearts contractions and transmitted to the chest wall. The dBG 300 may be used as a tool to measure the timing of the events in the cardiac cycle.
The Heart Force Ballistocardiograph senses and analyzes the mechanical movement of the heart. This is accomplished with 2 or 3 standard ECG electrodes for the ECG signal and with a suitable miniature electronic accelerometer for the mechanical motion.
The provided text describes the 510(k) summary for the dBG 300 Digital Ballistocardiograph, but it does not contain acceptance criteria or detailed study results that prove the device meets specific performance metrics.
The document discusses substantial equivalence to a predicate device (Seismed SCG-2000 Seismocardiograph) and mentions clinical data collected to compare cardiac event timings with an echocardiograph. However, it does not provide the specifics of this clinical data in a way that allows for a comprehensive description of acceptance criteria and a study proving their fulfillment.
Therefore, I cannot fulfill all parts of your request with the information provided. I can, however, extract what is available regarding clinical data and ground truth establishment:
Missing Information
The provided text does not contain the following information:
- A table of acceptance criteria or specific reported device performance metrics (e.g., accuracy, precision, sensitivity, specificity, agreement thresholds).

- Sample size for the training set.
- How the ground truth for the training set was established.
Available Information Related to Studies and Ground Truth
While specific acceptance criteria and detailed study results are absent, the document does mention a clinical study and the type of ground truth used:
-
A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:
- Information not available: Specific acceptance criteria (e.g., "timing measurements must be within X ms of echocardiograph measurements") and quantitative reported device performance against such criteria are not provided.
- The document implies that "equivalent intended use, manufacturing materials, operating principles, physical and operational specifications" to the predicate device (Seismed SCG-2000) serve as a basis for substantial equivalence, rather than direct performance metrics against specific criteria.
-
Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:
- Information not available: The exact sample size for the clinical data is not specified.
- Data provenance: "clinical data collected to compare the subjects device's finding of the times of occurrence of cardiac events such as aortic valve opening or closing with that of an echocardiograph." This implies prospective data collection for comparison. The country of origin is not explicitly stated for the clinical data itself, though the submitter is from Canada and the regulatory correspondent from the US.
-
Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
- Information not available: This detail is not provided.
-
Adjudication method for the test set:
- Information not available: This detail is not provided.
-
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:
- Information not available: The device is described as a tool to measure timing events; there is no mention of an "AI" component or human-in-the-loop performance improvement study in the context of MRMC. The document predates widespread AI in medical devices (2009).
