The Stealth™ Monitor is a prescription only single use, continuous recording ECG monitor that can be worn up to 168 hours (7 days) during activities of daily living. It is indicated for use on adult patients who may be asymptomatic or who may suffer from transient symptoms such as palpitations, dizziness, anxiety, fatigue, syncope, presyncope, light-headedness, shortness of breath and where a software-assisted analysis of the potential causes of these symptoms is desirable.
Device Story
Stealth™ Monitor is a lightweight, patch-style, single-use cardiac monitor; worn on patient's chest like adhesive bandage; collects continuous ECG data for up to 168 hours. Device uses integrated electrodes to record ECG signals; data retrieved via direct connection to software application installed at physician's office. Software generates reports and saves full disclosure ECG files for physician review. Physician uses output to characterize ECG signals and identify potential causes of cardiac symptoms. Benefits include ambulatory monitoring during activities of daily living, facilitating diagnosis of transient cardiac events.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Device performance evaluated against accepted standards in a laboratory environment. Documentation provided includes risk management, hazard analysis, and verification/validation protocols/reports for software and hardware.
Technological Characteristics
Patch-style, single-use ECG monitor; foam housing; <9g weight. Integrated electrodes with hydrogel. Continuous recording up to 168 hours. USB 2.0 data transfer. Battery-powered. Software-assisted analysis of ECG data. No sterilization.

Dear Deborah Sheffield,
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply
{1}------------------------------------------------
with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical devicerelated adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Division of Industry and Consumer Education at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 796-7100 or at its Internet address
http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/ResourcesforYou/Industry/default.htm. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to
http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/Safety/ReportaProblem/default.htm for the CDRH's Office of Surveillance and Biometrics/Division of Postmarket Surveillance.

#### Device Description
The Stealth™ Monitor is a small, lightweight, patch-style, single-use cardiac monitor designed for ambulatory collection of electrocardiographic (ECG) data continuously for up to 168 hours (7 days) and ECG signal characterization. It is worn on the patient's chest similar to an adhesive bandage. The housing is constructed of a foam material making the device very lightweight (less than 9 grams).
Image /page/4/Picture/4 description: The image shows a white, three-compartment tray against a dark background. Each compartment is square-shaped with rounded corners and slightly raised edges. The compartments are connected to each other, forming a single unit. The tray appears to be made of a molded material, possibly plastic or foam.
A software application is installed at a physician's office to receive the data from the monitor using a direct connection. Data retrieved from the monitor may be printed or saved and stored for later viewing. The DSD software has the ability to generate reports as well as the ability to save a full disclosure ECG file for viewing.
