Indications for Use

The ChartCheck device is intended for the quality assessment of radiotherapy treatment plans and on treatment chart review.

Device Story

ChartCheck is a cloud-based software for radiotherapy quality assurance. It utilizes an agent service to monitor the ARIA Radiation Therapy Management database, extracting treatment plans, records, imaging, and documentation. Data is uploaded to a cloud-based service that calculates 'check states' (pass/fail/override/condition) based on user-defined logic. Results are presented via a web browser application where radiation oncology personnel review treatment records, view calculated check states, record comments, and approve charts. Administrators use the interface to configure check state colors, default settings, and logic. The device assists clinicians in verifying treatment plans and treatments, potentially improving the efficiency and accuracy of chart reviews.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical trials were performed. Substantial equivalence is supported by bench-level verification and validation testing, including hazard analysis, to ensure software requirements and pass/fail criteria are met.

Technological Characteristics

Pure software application. Operates as a cloud-based service with a local agent for database monitoring. Integrates with ARIA Radiation Therapy Management database. Web-based user interface. Logic-based check state calculation.

Indications for Use

Indicated for trained radiation oncology personnel performing quality assessment of radiotherapy treatment plans and on-treatment chart review.

Predicate Device Information ARIA Radiation Therapy Management (K173838) {4}------------------------------------------------ # 5.4. Device Description The ChartCheck device is software that enables trained radiation oncology personnel to perform quality assessments of treatment plans and treatment chart review utilizing plan, treatment, imaging, and documentation data obtained from the ARIA Radiation Therapy Management database. ChartCheck contains 3 main components: - 1. An agent service that is configured by the user to monitor their ARIA Radiation Therapy Management database. The agent watches for new treatment plans, treatment records, documentation, and imaging data. The agent uploads new data to the cloud based checking service. - 2. A cloud based checking service calculates check states as new records are uploaded from the agent. - 3. A web application accessed via a web browser which contains several components. - a. It allows trained radiation oncology personnel to review treatment records, view the check state calculation results, record comments,, and mark the chart checks as approved. - b. It allows an administrator to set check state colors, configure default settings, and define check state logic. # 5.5. Indications for Use The ChartCheck device is intended for the quality assessment of radiotherapy treatment plans and on treatment chart review. ### 5.6. Technological Characteristics ChartCheck (Subject Device) makes use of a Predicate Device, ARIA Radiation Therapy Management (K173838) for substantial equivalence comparison. # 5.6.1. ChartCheck vs. ARIA Radiation Therapy Management (K173838) Varian's ARIA Radiation Therapy Management software "is a treatment plan and image management application. It enables the authorized user to enter, access, modify, store and archive treatment plan and image data from diagnostic studies, treatment planning, simulation, plan verification and treatment. ARIA Radiation Therapy Management also stores the treatment histories including dose delivered to defined sites, and provides tools to verify performed treatments." (https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/cdrh docs/pdf17/K173838.pdf accessed 04/17/2020) ChartCheck contains a subset of the features found in ARIA Radiation Therapy Management. ChartCheck provides tools to verify treatment plans and treatments utilizing the same treatment data used by ARIA Radiation Therapy Management. The software is very similar in design and function to the ARIA Radiation Therapy Management software, particularly the "ChartQA" module. 510(k) Submission {5}------------------------------------------------ | Table 3: Substantial Equivalence ChartCheck vs. ARIA Radiation Therapy Management | | | | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------| | Parameters | Subject Device: ChartCheck<br>Radformation | Predicate Device: ARIA<br>Radiation Therapy Management<br>(K173838) | Equivalence | | Indications for<br>use | The ChartCheck device is<br>intended for the quality<br>assessment of radiotherapy<br>treatment plans and on<br>treatment chart review. | The ARIA Radiation Therapy<br>Management product is a<br>treatment plan and image<br>management application.

Performance Data As with the Predicate Device, no clinical trials were performed for ChartCheck. Verification tests were performed to ensure that the software works as intended and pass/fail criteria were used to verify requirements. ### 5.8. Conclusion ChartCheck is deemed substantially equivalent to the Predicate Device, ARIA Radiation Therapy Management (K173838). The fact that ChartCheck indications for use are a subset of the predicate device's indications for use does not raise any new questions regarding safety and effectiveness. Verification and Validation testing and Hazard Analysis demonstrate that ChartCheck is as safe and effective as the Predicate Device.
