Indications for Use
The Automatic Talking Blood Pressure Monitor, Model BP3AP1-3E (BP A130) is a device intended to measure the systolic and diastolic blood pressure and pulse rate of an adult individual by using a non-invasive oscillometric technique in which an inflatable cuff is wrapped around the upper arm. The device detects the appearance of irregular heartbeat during measurement and gives a warning signal with the reading once the irregular heartbeat is detected.
Device Story
Automatic blood pressure monitor; uses oscillometric method; inflatable upper arm cuff; capacitor pressure sensor converts cuff pressure changes to electrical signals; software algorithm calculates systolic/diastolic pressure and pulse rate. Features irregular heartbeat detection (IHD) with visual indicator, talking function, traffic light indicator, and medication alarm. Used by adults for self-measurement. Output displayed on LCD; provides audible feedback. Benefits include convenient home monitoring of cardiovascular metrics.
Clinical Evidence
No new clinical trials performed. Equivalence supported by internal clinical testing comparing different cuff bladder materials (PVC vs. TPU) and different cuff sizes, demonstrating no impact on clinical accuracy. Device is technically identical to predicate BP3MC1-PC; additional features (talking, backlight, etc.) do not affect blood pressure detection accuracy.
Technological Characteristics
Non-invasive oscillometric measurement; capacitor pressure sensor; automatic pump inflation; factory-set exhaust valve. Materials: TPU/PVC cuff bladders. Features: IHD, talking function, traffic light, medication alarm. Software: Moderate level of concern. Standards: ANSI/AAMI SP10:2008.
Indications for Use
Indicated for adult individuals for non-invasive measurement of systolic/diastolic blood pressure and pulse rate via upper arm cuff. Includes irregular heartbeat detection.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A noninvasive blood pressure measurement system is a device that provides a signal from which systolic, diastolic, mean, or any combination of the three pressures can be derived through the use of tranducers placed on the surface of the body.

## 510(k) SUMMARY
This summary of 510(k) safety and effectiveness information is being submitted in accordance with the requirements of SMDA 1990 and 21 CFR §807.92.
The assigned 510(k) number is:
#### 1. Submitter's Identification:
Microlife Intellectual Property GmbH, Switzerland Espenstrasse 139 9443 Widnau / Switzerland
Date Summary Prepared: June 1, 2011
Contact: Mr. Gerhard Frick Vice President of Technical and Service Microlife Intellectual Property GmbH, Switzerland Tel: +41 79 216 0070 E-Mail: gerhard.frick@microlife.ch
#### 2. Name of the Device:
Automatic Talking Blood Pressure Monitor, Model BP3AP1-3E (BP A130)
Regulation Number: 21 CFR Part 870.1130 Regulation Name: Non-Invasive Blood Pressure Measurement System Regulatory Class: II Product Code: DXN
#### 3. Information for the 510(k) Cleared Device (Predicate Device):
a. Microlife Upper Arm Automatic Digital Blood Pressure Monitor, Model BP3MC1-PC, K061471, Microlife Intellectual Property GmbH.
b. Reizen Talking Blood Pressure Monitor, Model SF860T, K041778, Maxi Aids, Inc.
#### 4. Device Description:
Microlife Automatic Talking Blood Pressure Monitor, Model BP3AP1-3E (BP A130) is designed to measure systolic and diastolic blood pressure and pulse rate of an individual by using a non-invasive technique in which an inflatable cuff is wrapped around the upper arm. Our method to define systolic and diastolic pressure is similar to the auscultatory method but uses a capacitor pressure 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 has Irregular Heartbeat Detection (IHD) function. It detects the appearance of irregular heartbeat during measurement and the irregular heart beat
{1}------------------------------------------------
symbol "Ar " is displayed on the LCD screen if any irregular heart beat signal has been detected. In addition, the device has talking function, traffic light and medication alarm function.
#### 5. Intended Use:
The Automatic Talking Blood Pressure Monitor, Model BP3AP1-3E (BP A130) is a device intended to measure the systolic and diastolic blood pressure and pulse rate of an adult individual by using a non-invasive oscillometric technique in which an inflatable cuff is wrapped around the upper arm.
The device detects the appearance of irregular heartbeat during measurement and gives a warning signal with the reading once the irregular heartbeat is detected.
#### 6. Comparison to the 510(k) Cleared Devices (Predicate Devices):
The subject BP3AP1-3E (BP A130) and the predicate device model BP3MC1-PC, use the same oscillometric method with the same software algorithm to determine the systolic and diastolic blood pressure and pulse rate. Upper arm cuff is inflated automatically by pump, the deflation rate is controlled by factory set exhaust valve and the deflation pressures are transferred via tubing to a sensor in these two units.
The differences between the two models are the talking function, MAM, PC-link function, backlight, cuff bladder material and cuff bladder size but the differences do not affect the accuracy and normal use of this device because they use the same fundamental scientific technology based on the internal clinical test comparing different cuff bladder material and the clinical test on three cuffs with different bladder size.
The talking function is same with what is used in the predicate device. Model SF860T, with 510(k) cleared number K041778.
### 7. Discussion of Non-Clinical Tests Performed for Determination of Substantial Equivalence are as follows:
Testing information demonstrating safety and effectiveness of the Microlife Automatic Talking Blood Pressure Monitor, Model BP3AP1-3E (BP A130) in the intended environment of use is supported by testing that was conducted in accordance with the FDA November 1993 Draft "Reviewer Guidance for Premarket Notification Submissions", DCRND, which outlines Electrical. Mechanical and Environmental Performance requirements.
The following testing was conducted:
- a. Reliability Test Storage test
- b. Reliability Test Operating test
- Reliability Test Vibration test C.
- d. Reliability Test Drop test
- e. Reliability Test Life test
- EMC Test ﺖ
None of the testing demonstrated any design characteristics that violated the requirements of the Reviewer Guidance or resulted in any safety hazards. It was

our conclusion that Microlife Automatic Talking Blood Pressure Monitor, Model BP3AP1-3E (BP A130) tested met all relevant requirements of the aforementioned tests.
#### 8. Discussion of Clinical Tests Performed:
The subject modified device Model BP3AP1-3E (BP A130) is from the technical point of view, identical to the blood pressure monitor Model BP3MC1-PC. The internal clinical test comparing different cuff bladder materials demonstrates that the clinical accuracy in terms of blood pressure detection and normal use of this device is not affected by change of the bladder material from PVC to TPU. The clinical tests on three cuffs with different bladder size demonstrate that the clinical accuracy in terms of blood pressure detection and normal use of this device is not affected by change of the bladder size. The other differences (talking function, MAM, PC-link function, backlight) have no impact on the clinical accuracy in terms of blood pressure detection. Therefore repeated clinical test in accordance with the standard ANSI/AAMI SP10 is not necessary.
#### 9. Software information:
Software validation was conducted in accordance with a moderate level of concern designation in accordance with the FDA November 2005 document "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices".
#### 10. Conclusions:
We have demonstrated that there are no significant differences between the Microlife Automatic Talking Blood Pressure Monitor. Model BP3AP1-3E (BP A130) and the predicate devices, Model BP3MC1-PC and Model SF860T, in terms of safety and effectiveness based on electrical, mechanical and environmental test results per the FDA DCRND November 1993 Draft "Reviewer Guidance for Premarket Notification Submissions", and the ANSI/AAMI Voluntary Standard, SP10: 2008.
