Indications for Use

The Sensi device consisting of the Sensi Diagnostic Heart Murmur Software, the WelchAllyn Master Elite Stethoscope and WelchAllyn USB Analyzer is a decision support device intended to be used on a single patient to assist the medical examiner in analyzing cardiac sounds for the identification and classification of suspected murmurs. It is used to distinguish between normal/physiological and pathological heart murmurs by recording the acoustic signal of the heart and the ECG signal simultaneously and analyze these signals. The acoustic heart signal is analyzed to identify specific heart sounds that may be present. Identified sounds include S1, S2, and suspected systolic murmurs. Sensi indicates whether or not a recorded heart sound contains a suspected heart murmur and the confidence with which the analysis was made The device must be used in a clinical setting by trained personnel with the prescribed accessories and all relevant patient information must be taken into consideration before a diagnosis is made. The interpretations of heart sounds offered by the Sensi device are only significant when used in conjunction with physician over-read as well as consideration of all other relevant patient data. Sensi is not intended to be a diagnostic device. It does not supersede the judgment of the qualified medical personnel. The device is intended to aid the physician in the evaluation of heart sounds. The physicians responsible for reviewing and interpreting the results, along with the auscultatory findings and medical history, in making a referral decision.

Device Story

Sensi is a decision support system for heart murmur analysis. Inputs: acoustic heart sounds (four auscultation positions) and 3-lead ECG signals captured via WelchAllyn Master Elite Stethoscope and USB Analyzer. Operation: software runs on Windows PC; uses ECG QRS peaks to segment heart beats; analyzes acoustic signals to identify S1, S2, and suspected systolic murmurs. Output: classification of heart sounds (normal vs. pathological) and confidence score. Used in clinical settings by trained personnel. Benefits: aids physician evaluation of heart sounds to inform referral decisions. Not a standalone diagnostic; requires physician over-read and integration with patient history.

Clinical Evidence

Clinical validation included a feasibility/usability study in clinical settings (users scored 4/5); comparative study vs. Zargis Cardioscan (Sensi 70.8% accuracy vs. 67.9% for Cardioscan); design verification of CAA algorithm (94% specificity, 91% sensitivity); and validation of murmur classification in pediatric population (1568 heart sounds analyzed).

Technological Characteristics

System includes WelchAllyn Master Elite Stethoscope, WelchAllyn USB Analyzer, and Sensi Diagnostic Heart Murmur Software. Operates on Windows-based PC. Signal processing uses ECG-synchronized acoustic analysis. Software algorithm performs heart sound segmentation and murmur classification.

Indications for Use

Indicated for use by trained medical personnel in clinical settings to assist in identifying and classifying suspected heart murmurs in patients. Aids in distinguishing between normal/physiological and pathological murmurs by analyzing acoustic heart signals and ECG. Not for diagnostic use; requires physician over-read.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

### DEVICE DESCRIPTION

### 807.92(a)(4)

The Sensi with Diagnostic Heart Murmur Software is a decision support device intended to acquire, record, and analyze heart sounds. It is used to distinguish between normal/physiological and pathological heart murmurs by recording the acoustic signal of the heart and the ECG signal simultaneously and analyzing these signal.

The complete system is a CD comprising Sensi Diagnostic Heart Murmur Software that runs on a computer with Windows operating system, instructions for use, the WelchAllyn Master Elite Stethoscope and the WelchAllyn Meditron Analyzer that captures the acoustic heart and ECG signals.

The Sensi Diagnostic Heart Murmur Software distinguishes between normal/ physiological and pathological heart murmurs by analyzing the acoustic heart and ECG signals captured with the WelchAllyn Meditron Analyzer. The device will record the acoustic sound of the heart at the four main auscultation positions and a three lead ECG signal. The ECG signal is not intended for diagnostic use, only to synchronize with the

### COMPARISON OF TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS 807.92(a)(6)

The Sensi software device features were directly compared with the FDA cleared Zargis Acoustic Cardioscan and Meditron Stethoscope Analyzer.

Synopsis of the comparison analysis:

- All three software systems uses equivalent computer platforms. .
- Both Sensi and Meditron uses equivalent accessories (electronic stethoscope and ● USB Analyzer - ECG). The acoustic performance between the Littmann and WelchAllyn electronic stethoscopes are equivalent.
- Both Sensi and Cardioscan uses equivalent signal processing algorithms. Sensi . uses the ORS peak information from the ECG to segment the heart beats. No additional issues are introduced using this standard processing method and makes the process only more safe and effective.
- Patient information and signal display handling are in all three cases equivalent. .
- Sensi and Cardioscan's clinical performances are equivalent. ●
