Date Revised: November 4, 2014

### 2. DEVICE NAME

| Proprietary Name: | DR300 Holter Monitor |
|----------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Common/Usual Name: | Ambulatory ECG recorder, Ambulatory Electrocardiograph (without analysis), Holter Monitor |
| Classification: | Class 2, 21 CFR 870.2800 |
| Classification Name: | Ambulatory ECG recorder |
| Product Code: | MWJ |

#### 3. PREDICATE DEVICES

- K061293 Telaheart Digital Recorder / DR200 .
#### 4. DEVICE DESCRIPTION

The DR300 is an ambulatory monitor, sometimes called a Holter, which is a painless method to monitor the heart beat for a period of time (such as 24 hours, 48 hours, or 72 hours). The Holter is a small recording device that records the heart beat while being worn by the patient.

The physician or technician places electrodes and wires on the patient. The wires are connected to the Holter or digital recorder.

{4}------------------------------------------------

The DR300 Recorder has two modes that allow it to be used either as a standard Holter monitor or a looping Event recorder. The device is designed to facilitate ambulatory cardiac monitoring on the order of a physician, of those patients (including infants weighing less than 10 kg) who may benefit from such monitoring.

The data obtained during monitoring is not analyzed at the time of recording. After the recording is complete, the data must later be downloaded to a compatible NorthEast Monitoring Holter or Event analysis system (TelePro Software) to be analyzed. The Holter Analysis Software was cleared by FDA under K930564.

The device is not intended to replace real time telemetry monitoring for patient suspected of having life threatening arrhythmias.

The DR300 Digital Recorder package includes:

- . DR300 Digital Recorder
- Operation Manual
- SD Card ●
- Patient Cable

The DR300 digital recorder is powered by one 1.5 volt AA alkaline battery (MN1500 or the equivalent), one AA rechargeable NiMH (nickel metal hydride) battery, or one AA Eveready Lithium L91 battery. Batteries should not be re-used for a second patient. The batteries are not included; users are instructed to purchase 2 AA batteries.

The device is compatible with standard silver / silver chloride ECG electrodes. Electrodes are not provided with the subject device. The user is instructed to purchase standard silver / silver chloride ECG electrodes.

The DR300 digital recorder uses NorthEast Monitoring NorthEast Monitoring shielded patient cables with either 5 or 7 patient leads for a 3 channel recording or three leads for 2 channel Holter Recording.

The DR300 has an LCD that is used to display the time of day (during the recording), prompts and error messages (during the hookup procedure or during recording), or lead quality (during the hookup procedure).

The data collected by the DR300 digital recorder is stored on a removable SD Card.

The DR300 is packaged in a plastic bag in a cardboard shipping carton. The shipping carton will also include a patient cable and an SD Card.

{5}------------------------------------------------

The difference between the DR300 and the DR200/Telaheart is the wireless capability. The DR300 digital recorder is equipped with wireless Bluetooth transmitter. A NorthEast Monitoring Bluetooth Gateway or USB Dongle is able to receive the encrypted Holter and Event data.

In order for the wireless transmission to occur, the DR300 will need to come in range of a North East Monitoring transceiver - either a gateway or a PC with a USB Adapter. If there is sufficient data to send, the recorder will attempt to locate a transceiver every 20 minutes. When the transceiver is found the data will be sent. Transmission may be started manually by pressing the enter button.

### 5. INTENDED USE

The DR300 Digital Recorder can be used in Holter mode and Event Recorder mode.

### Holter Mode

Detection of Arrhythmias, Efficacy of Pharmacological Treatment, and Pacemaker Evaluation.

### Event Recorder

The DR300 event recorder module is a patient activated device designed to record and for diagnostic evaluation of transient symptoms (such as dizziness, palpitations, syncope, and chest pain). Once data is recorded, the data is transmitted wirelessly for evaluation.

#### 6. TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS AND SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE

The DR300 substantially equivalent to the Telaheart / DR 200 cleared under 510(k) K061293. The DR300 is equipped with a wireless Bluetooth transmitter and has additional shielding to be immune to radiofrequency interference and in order to pass FCC and EMC test requirements.

When the wireless function is enabled by the physician/technician, once every preset interval (normally set at 20 minutes) the device will check for the availability of any new data since the last successful transmission. If there is any, the Bluetooth module will be enabled and an attempt made to establish a link. If a link is established, then all available new ECG data will be transmitted. After each "block" of data is transmitted (normally 16 K bytes or less) a verification will be made for a successful transmission by the detection of a reply from the receiving end. The data will be re-transmitted if needed.

## 8. SAFETY AND EFFICACY

The subject device was subjected to testing including:

- · IEC 60601-1-6: 2010 Medical Electrical Equipment Part 1-6: General Requirements for Safety - Collateral Standard: Usability including IEC 62366: Application of usability engineering to medical devices.
· IEC 60601-1-11: 2010 Medical Electrical Equipment Part 1-11: General Requirements for basic safety and essential performance - Collateral Standard: Requirements for medical electrical equipment and medical electrical systems used in the home healthcare environment.

· IEC 60601-1: 2012 Medical Electrical Equipment Part 1: General Requirements for Safety

· IEC 60601-1-2-47 Medical Electrical Equipment Part 2 – 47: Particular Requirements for the Safety including Essential Performance of Ambulatory Electrocardiographic Systems.

· IEC 60601-1-2 Medical Electrical Equipment Part 1-2: General Requirements for Basic Safety and Essential Performance Collateral Standard: Electromagnetic Compatibility.

- Software Verification and Validation ●
- Simulated bench and wireless testing (see summary below)

{7}------------------------------------------------

The testing included 11 Holter Tests for the purposes of verifying that the DR300 functions as intended. Testing was conducted related to the functionality of the Holter and Event functions of the DR300 without the wireless function being utilized. These tests verified that the device functions as intended after the inclusion of the Bluetooth transmitter and additional shielding. The testing ranged from monitoring over a 24 hour to 14 day period. Additional testing was performed to evaluate the wireless Bluetooth technology and communication of encrypted data. The wireless testing ranged from monitoring over a 24 hour to 48 hour period.

All testing confirmed that the device using the wireless technology functioned as intended and found no issues of safety or effectiveness.

## 9. CONCLUSION

North East Monitoring believes that based on the indications for use, technological characteristics, and comparison to predicate devices the DR300 has been shown to be substantially equivalent to the predicate.
