Intended Use
The Model CH 2000 Cardiac Diagnostic System is intended for the recording of electrocardiograms, vector cardiograms and measurement of Microvolt T-Wave Alternans* at rest and during ECG stress testing. The presence of Microvolt T-wave Alternans as measured by the Analytic Spectral Method of the Model CH2000 Cardiac Diagnostic System in patients with known, suspected or at risk of ventricular tachyarrhythmia predicts increased risk of a cardiac event (ventricular tachyarrhythmia or sudden death). The Model CH2000 Cardiac Diagnostic System should be used only as an adjunct to clinical history and the results of other non-invasive and/or invasive tests. The interpretive results of the Alternans Processing System should be reviewed by a qualified physician. The predictive value of T-wave Alternans for cardiac events has not been established in patients with active, untreated ischemia. *Microvolt T-wave Alternans is defined as T-wave alternans which (a) is measured from high-resolution multi-segment sensors, (b) is present in leads X, Y, Z, VM or two adjacent precordial leads, (c) is at the level of 1.9 microvolts after signal optimization and subtraction of the background noise level, (d) is at least three standard deviations greater than the background noise level, (e) has an onset heart rate at or below 110 beats per minute, and (f) is sustained for all heart rates above the onset heart rate.
Device Story
System records ECGs, vector cardiograms, and measures Microvolt T-Wave Alternans (MTWA) at rest or during stress testing (treadmill, ergometer, pharmacologic). Inputs: 7 standard stress electrodes + 7 proprietary multi-segment Micro-V Alternans sensors; data digitized via belt-worn patient module. Analytic Spectral Method processes signals to detect beat-to-beat T-wave amplitude variations. Alternans Report Classifier software categorizes trends as positive, negative, or indeterminate. Used in clinical stress labs by trained personnel; results reviewed by physicians to assess risk of ventricular tachyarrhythmia or sudden death. Provides diagnostic adjunct to clinical history and other tests.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence is based on technological similarities and the use of the previously cleared Analytic Spectral Method for T-wave alternans measurement.
Technological Characteristics
System includes IBM-compatible computer, 15-inch monitor, ECG amplifier (PM-3/PM2), and serial interfaces for treadmill/ergometer. Sensors: 7 standard electrodes + 7 proprietary multi-segment Micro-V Alternans sensors. Standards: ANSI/AAMI EC11-1991, EN60601-1, EN60601-1-1, EN60601-1-2, UL2601-1, CAN/CSA C22.2 No. 601.1-M90. Connectivity: RS-232 serial interface. Software: Alternans Report Classifier.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients with known, suspected, or at risk of ventricular tachyarrhythmia to predict risk of cardiac events (ventricular tachyarrhythmia or sudden death). Not established for patients with active, untreated ischemia.
Regulatory Classification
Identification An electrocardiograph is a device used to process the electrical signal transmitted through two or more electrocardiograph electrodes and to produce a visual display of the electrical signal produced by the heart.

### Device Description
The Model CH2000 Cardiac Diagnostic System is intended for the measurement and recording of T-Wave alternans. The modification which is the subject of this pre-market submission is the modification of a parameter in Alternans Report Classifier software which was cleared for marketing on November 17, 2001 (K013565). Classification software provides the clinician with an indication of positive, negative, or indeterminate result for the Alternans Trend Reports. The results remain subject to the final review of a qualified medical practitioner. Microvolt T-wave Alternans has been shown to be useful in predicting ventricular tachyarrhythmias and sudden cardiac death.
The Model CH2000 Cardiac Diagnostic System provides T-wave alternans diagnostic capabilities to standard stress labs. The Analytic Spectral Method of Alternans Processing used in the CH2000 is intended for the measurement of Microvolt T-wave alternans at rest and during treadmill, ergometer and pharmacologic stress testing. The Alternans Report Classifier provides input to the physician on interpreting the Alternans trend reports.
The alternans test using the Analytic Spectral Method of Alternans Processing is performed with seven standard stress test electrodes and seven proprietary multi-segment Micro-V Alternans™ Sensors. The electrodes and sensors are attached through a leadwire set to the belt-worn patient module, which provides digitized data to the CH2000.

The Model CH 2000 Cardiac Diagnostic System uses the same Analytic Spectral Method as the predicate CH2000 for measuring T-Wave Alternans.
#### Conclusion
There are more similarities than differences between the predicate device and the Cambridge Heart Model CH2000 Cardiac Diagnostic System. Both devices use the Analytic Spectral Method. When used by qualified personnel in accordance with the directions for use, the Model CH2000 Cardiac Diagnostic System with Alternans Report Classifier is safe and effective, as indicated, for its intended use.
