Intended Use
The Kenz Cardico 1211 is indicated for routine ECG acquisition and ECG signal analysis. It is equipped with an auto-analysis function and is not intended to replace the physician's reading of ECGs. Instead, it is intended to assist physicians and supplement their readings by: providing preliminary interpretations of ECG records which need to be confirmed or edited by the physician, who integrates ECG findings with other relevant clinical data; providing auto-analysed measurements of many ECG parameters, which need to be confirmed by the physician. The device is applicable only to adults (19 years or older age). Applications: Cardico 1211 is intended to be used as part of health examination of general population, and as part of laboratory tests and clinical examination to diagnose various cardiac abnormalities including myocardial ischemia/ infarction, ventricular hypertrophy, cardiac arrhythmias, and atrioventricular (AV) block. Locations: Hospitals. Caution: US Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician.

The main difference between the two devices is that the subject device (Kenz Cardico 1211) has ECG interpretive software that reflects many ECG clinical studies published after the development of the ECG interpretation software of the Kenz Cardico 1201. However, Kenz Cardico 1211 does not introduce a new scientific technology. Performance testing demonstrates that the automated diagnostic performance of Kenz Cardico 1211 is non-inferior to the predicate device, Kenz Cardico 1201.

### 10-2. Diagnostic performance testing
Diagnostic performance of Kenz Cardico 1211 (Cardico 1211 hereafter) and its predicate device, Kenz Cardico 1201 (Cardico 1201 hereafter) in ECG interpretation was tested in a total of 2,451 ECGs recorded from 2,451 subjects. Interpretive statements were classified as Type A, B and C according to the Tenth Bethesda Conference Report, 1978 (Att. 18-1).
Statistical analysis was carried out separately in Type A, B and C statements (see a Table below). Reference of truth employed in the performance evaluation was "Cardiologist Consensus" or "Clinical Truth" for the Type A statements, and "Cardiologist Consensus" for all the Type B and Type C statements. Creation of Cardiologist Consensus is described in detail in Att. 18-1.
| Statement | Database | Analysis | Reference |
|-----------|------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------|------------------------|
| Type A | CSE Database | Total Agreement (Non-inferiority test)<br>Sensitivity/Specificity (95% CI) | Cardiologist Consensus |
| | Suzuken Database-2 | Sensitivity/Specificity (95% CI) | Cardiologist Consensus |
| | (Acute MI) | Sensitivity/Specificity (95% CI) | Clinical Truth |
| Type B | CSE Database +<br>Suzuken Database-1 | Sensitivity/Specificity (95% CI) | Cardiologist Consensus |
| | Suzuken Database-3<br>(Pacemaker rhythm) | Sensitivity/Specificity (95% CI)* | Cardiologist Consensus |
| Type C | CSE Database +<br>Suzuken Database-1 | Sensitivity/Specificity (95% CI) | Cardiologist Consensus |
CSE: Common Standards for Electrocardiography
*Not applicable to Cardico 1201, which is not equipped with pacemaker pulse detection circuit.
The ECGs from the CSE Database were used to test the statistical hypothesis that Cardico 1211 is non-inferior to Cardico 1201 in the performance of diagnosis for Type A statements. Total agreement of Cardico 1211 with Cardiologist Consensus was greater than that of Cardico 1201, giving rise to an overall sensitivity of 93.1% for Cardico 1211 vs. 76.1% for Cardico 1201. In addition, the Cardico 1211 had a higher sensitivity than did the Cardico 1201 for most individual statement of Type A, B and C, while the specificities of the two devices tended to be similar. The results demonstrate substantial equivalence of the Cardico 1211 to the Cardico 1201 in diagnostic performance.
### 11. Conclusions
Based on the statistical results derived from the study conducted by Suzuken Co., Ltd. we conclude that the Kenz Cardico 1211 is substantially equivalent to the predicate device, Kenz Cardico 1201.
