• Attributes: Therapeutic, Pediatric

Indications for Use

The Powerheart® Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is intended to be used by persons who have been trained in its operation. The user should be trained in basic life support or other physician-authorized emergency medical response. An AED is indicated for emergency treatment of victims exhibiting symptoms of sudden cardiac arrest who are unresponsive and not breathing or not breathing normally. Post-resuscitation, if the patient is breathing, the AED should be left attached to allow for acquisition and detection of the ECG rhythm. If a shockable ventricular tachyarrhythmia recurs, the device will charge automatically and advise the operator to deliver a shock, or for an automatic AED, automatically deliver a shock if needed. When a patient is a child up to 8 years of age, or up to 25kg (55 lbs), the AED should be used with the Pediatric Defibrillation Pads. The therapy should not be delayed to determine the patient's exact age or weight.

Device Story

Powerheart G5 AED is a portable, battery-operated, self-testing defibrillator. Input: patient ECG signals via defibrillation pads. Operation: device monitors ECG rhythm; identifies shockable ventricular tachyarrhythmias; automatically charges and advises shock (or delivers shock automatically). Output: voice/text prompts to guide user; defibrillation shock. Used by trained first responders (ambulance, police, fire, security, lay persons) in emergency settings. Device remains attached post-resuscitation to monitor for recurrent arrhythmias. Benefits: rapid intervention for sudden cardiac arrest.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Performance hardware and software evaluations conducted in accordance with industry standards confirmed the device performs as intended.

Technological Characteristics

Portable, battery-operated AED. Includes adult and pediatric defibrillation pads. Sensing/actuation: ECG monitoring and defibrillation shock delivery. Software-controlled operation with voice/text guidance. Self-testing capability.

Indications for Use

Indicated for emergency treatment of sudden cardiac arrest in unresponsive patients not breathing or not breathing normally. Pediatric use (age ≤8 years or weight ≤25kg) requires pediatric pads.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

An automated external defibrillator (AED) system consists of an AED and those accessories necessary for the AED to detect and interpret an electrocardiogram and deliver an electrical shock (e.g., battery, pad electrode, adapter, and hardware key for pediatric use). An AED system analyzes the patient's electrocardiogram, interprets the cardiac rhythm, and automatically delivers an electrical shock (fully automated AED), or advises the user to deliver the shock (semi-automated or shock advisory AED) to treat ventricular fibrillation or pulseless ventricular tachycardia.

Predicate Devices

• Powerheart® AED G3 (K102496)
• Defibrillation Electrodes (K082090)
• Pediatric Attenuated Defibrillation Electrodes (K022929)

#### D. Description of the device

The Powerheart® G5 AED is a portable, battery operated, self-testing defibrillator used to diagnose and treat life threatening ventricular arrhythmias in patients who are unresponsive and not breathing or not breathing normally. This is accomplished by monitoring the patient's ECG and delivering a defibrillation shock if necessary.

The AED is intended to be used by a person designated within a community, locale or building who is the first responder to a medical emergency. This typically includes ambulance, police or fire fighting personnel, emergency response team members, security personnel, and lay persons who have been trained in CPR and in the use of the AED.

The Powerheart® G5 AED guides the user through a rescue using voice or text prompts. Defibrillation pads are used to monitor and defibrillate patients. Adult pads, meant for patients older than 8 years or heavier than 55 lb, are preconnected to the Powerheart G5 AED and placed in two locations on the patient during a resoue. Pediatric pads are connected to the AED when a pediatric patient is involved and meant for use on those patients 8 years or younger, or 55 lb or lighter.

#### E. Intended use of the device

The Powerheart® Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is intended to be used by persons who have been trained in its operation. The user should be trained in basic life support or other physician-authorized emergency medical response.

An AED is indicated for emergency treatment of victims exhibiting symptoms of sudden cardiac arrest who are unresponsive and not breathing or not breathing normally. Post-resuscitation, if the patient is breathing, the AED should be left attached to allow for acquisition and detection of the ECG rhythm. If a shockable ventricular tachyarrhythmia recurs, the device will charge automatically and advise the operator to deliver a shock, or for an automatic AED, automatically deliver a shock if needed.

When a patient is a child up to 8 years of age, or up to 25kg (55 lbs), the AED should be used with the Pediatric Defibrillation Pads. The therapy should not be delayed to determine the patient's exact age or weight.

#### F. Functional Tests

The Powerheart® G5 AED was subjected to performance hardware and software evaluations in accordance with industry standards. The G5 passed all software and hardware tests and was found to perform as intended.

#### G. Conclusion

Cardiac Science has demonstrated through evaluation and testing of the Powerheart® G5 AED that the device is equivalent to the Powerheart® AED G3. The proposed device is equivalent with respect to indications for use, technological characteristics. materials, and software algorithm. Based on the results of testing, it is concluded that the Powerheart® G5 AED with Adult Electrodes and Pediatric Electrodes does not raise any new questions regarding the safety or effectiveness as compared with the predicate devices.
