Indications for Use

eCareCoordinator is software intended for use in data aggregation, patient interaction facilitation, storage and clinical information management with independent physiological devices and ancillary systems that are connected either directly or through networks. The software is intended to provide patient information from the patient location through networking technology to a remote care team. eCareCoordinator does not send any real time alarms and is not intended to provide automated treatment decisions. This software is an informational tool only and is not to be used as a substitute for professional judgment of healthcare providers in diagnosing and treating patients.

Device Story

eCareCoordinator (eCC) is a cloud-based, software-only telemedicine system for remote patient monitoring. Patients use the eCareCompanion (eCP) mobile application on a COTS Android tablet to manually input physiological measurements (weight, blood pressure, pulse, blood glucose, SpO2, temperature, PT/INR, transthoracic impedance) and respond to health surveys. The tablet transmits this data to the eCC cloud platform. Clinicians access a population management triage dashboard to review patient data and survey results. The system uses intervention rules to trigger flags for out-of-range or missed data, notifying clinicians who then review patient status and treatment plans. eCC does not provide real-time alarms or automated treatment decisions; it serves as an informational tool to support clinical decision-making and patient engagement in the home setting.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Verification testing confirmed system and sub-system requirements. Validation testing included formative and summative usability testing to validate the user interface and labeling. No clinical data provided.

Technological Characteristics

Software-only telemedicine system; cloud-based clinical interface; COTS Android tablet for patient interface. Connectivity via wireless networks. Rule-based intervention logic for flagging patient data. No hardware components; no sterilization required.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients and care teams to collect and review patient data from patients capable and willing to engage in software use, to transmit medical and non-medical information via integrated technologies.

Clinicians use eCC to manage populations of ambulatory care patients, while keeping primary care physicians informed of patient status. eCC is comprised of the following primary components: - . eCareCoordinator (eCC): eCC is the platform supporting the Clinical User Interface. eCC is a cloud-based system, which is used to acquire patient data from home devices, as well as provide a population management triage dashboard to enable the clinician's team to prioritize and manage populations of patients. - . eCareCompanion (eCP): eCP is a patient application element of eCareCoordinator used to engage patients in their own health. eCP is a mobile application which runs on an commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) Android tablet. Patients manually input measurements (including weight, blood pressure, pulse, blood glucose concentration, SpO2, temperature, prothrombin time (PT), coagulation ratio (INR), and transthoracic impedance) from measurement devices into the COTS tablet containing eCP. The COTS tablet wirelessly communicates with eCC to transmit the data stored by eCP to eCC. {5}------------------------------------------------ # Accessories The eCC Clinical User Interface is able to receive data from Philips Telehealth Solutions (PTS) Telestations. #### Intended Use eCareCoordinator is software intended for use in data aggregation, patient interaction facilitation, storage and clinical information management with independent physiological devices and ancillary systems that are connected either directly or through networks. The software is intended to provide patient information from the patient location through networking technology to a remote care team. eCareCoordinator does not send any real time alarms and is not intended to provide automated treatment decisions. This software is an informational tool only and is not to be used as a substitute for professional judgment of healthcare providers in diagnosing and treating patients. #### Indications for Use eCareCoordinator and its accessories are indicated for use by patients and by care teams for collecting and reviewing patient data from patients who are capable and willing to engage in use of this software, to transmit medical and non-medical information through integrated technologies. #### Comparison of Indications for Use Although the indications for use for the eCC and the PTS (K103214 / K041674) are not written identically, the stated indications for use are considered to be substantially equivalent, in that both devices are intended to be used in the data collection (aggregation)of patient measured physiological parameters (i.e., weight, blood pressure, etc.); both devices are intended to provide clinical information to a remote care team (i.e., clinical professional), both devices are not intended to be a substitute for professional judgment, and both devices do not send any real time alarms to the end user. # Technological Characteristics #### Clinical User Interface Both eCC and PTS feature a clinical user interface (eCC Clinical User Interface and M3817B server with M3811B Clinical Review Software, for eCC and PTS, respectively) that allows clinical users to review patient measurement and survey data. #### Patient User Interface Both eCC and PTS feature a patient user interface (eCP and the PTS telestation, for eCC and PTS, respectively) that allows patients to respond to surveys or enter data from measurement devices. As compared to the predicate PTS, eCC allows for substantially equivalent means of data entry by allowing the patient to manually enter data read from measurement devices. Surveys {6}------------------------------------------------ Both eCC and PTS give clinical users the option of sending surveys to patients in order to determine additional information about their health status. Patient surveys are sets of questional materials, quizzes, or assessments that are sent to at-home users via the eCP app or the PTS telestation # Protocols Protocols are an option in eCC that allows the creation of patient tasks and intervention rules which trigger a flag. Both eCC and PTS present flags in the clinical application as a notification to clinical users that an item requires attention. In both eCC and PTS, flags are triggered by out-of-range patient data or missed patient data. Clinical users review flags and may take action, including review of individual patient treatment plans, as necessary. # Performance Data Bench tests were executed to verify and validate eCC. Verification testing consisted of verification of the system-level requirements and verification of the sub-system level requirements. Validation testing consisted of formative usability testing and summative usability testing. The verification and validation test results confirm that eCC performs as intended. # Substantial Equivalence Table 1 below summarizes the comparison of eCC and its predicate device, PTS. eCC and PTS have the same intended use and similar indications, technological characteristics and principles of operation. As discussed above, the technological differences do not change the intended use or present any new issues of safety or effectiveness. Software verification and validation testing, in addition to usability testing conducted to validate the user interface and labeling, demonstrate that the proposed device performs as intended. Thus, eCC is substantially equivalent to PTS. | | eCareCoordinator (eCC) | M3810A Philips Telemonitoring System (PTS) (K103214) | M3810A Philips Telemonitoring System (PTS) (K041674) | Comparison | |---------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------| | Intended Use | Telemedicine system | Telemedicine system | Telemedicine system | Same | | Indications for Use | eCareCoordinator and its accessories are indicated for use by patients and by care teams for collecting and reviewing patient data from patients who are capable and willing to | The M38IOA Philips TeleMonitoring System with eDevice BridgeD130 is indicated for patients at home, who are capable and willing to self | The M3810A is indicated for patients at home, who are capable and willing to self administrate this device, upon prescription of their healthcare provider, to | Substantially equivalent to K103214 and K041674 | # Table 1.
