Cybersecurity testing, labeling, and a management plan were provided as recommended by the Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff Cybersecurity in Medical Devices: Quality System Considerations and Content of Premarket Submissions (issued September 27, 2023). ## Database Testing In compliance with special controls established under 21 CFR 870.2345(3), database testing using a previously adjudicated dataset was conducted as per ANSI/AAMI EC57:2012(R2020). ## Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), Electrical Safety, and Signal Acquisition Testing Testing was performed on the commercial WHOOP system, demonstrating it meets all necessary specifications to host the subject SaMD. The testing also supports substantial equivalence for WHOOP system's ability to reliably acquire ECG signals suitable for analysis and display, comprehensive electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), electrical safety, and signal acquisition performance. The following standards were utilized: - Thermal safety requirements under IEC 62368-1: 2018 - Applicable RF and EMC requirements under EN 301-489-1 v2.2.3:2019, EN 301-489-3 v2.3.2:2023, EN 301-489-17 v3.2.5:2022 and FCC 47 CFR Part 15 Subpart B:2024 - Medical Electrical Equipment - IEC 60601-2-47:2012 (Basic Safety and Essential Performance of Ambulatory ECG Systems) ## Human Factors Validation To address special control (4) under 21 CFR 870.2345, WHOOP conducted a human factors validation study with representative users of AFib and non AFib users in accordance with IEC 62366-1:2015 {9} K243236 510(k) Summary 6 of 6 # WHOOP Medical devices – Part 1: Application of usability engineering to medical devices and the FDA Guidance Document Applying Human Factors and Usability Engineering to Medical Devices Guidance for Industry and Food and Drug Administration Staff (issued February 3, 2016). The results of this study were positive and demonstrated that the user can correctly use the device by solely reading the device labeling and also correctly interpret the device output and understand when to seek medical care. This testing further supports evidence of substantial equivalence. Testing was also conducted to evaluate consumers' ability to accurately self-select if the ECG Feature is intended for them. This testing involved 51 participants, comprising both individuals for whom the ECG Feature is intended, as well as non-intended user population. This testing concluded that users can adequately self-select if the device is intended for them. ## Clinical Testing The WHOOP ECG Feature’s ability to accurately classify an ECG recording into AFib and sinus rhythm was validated in a clinical trial of approximately 540 subjects - 255 were enrolled in the AFib cohort, 285 were enrolled in the normal sinus rhythm cohort. The mean age of enrolled subjects was 60.4. Rhythm classification of a 12-lead ECG by a cardiologist was compared to the rhythm classification of a simultaneously collected ECG from the WHOOP feature. The ECG feature demonstrated 96.2% sensitivity in classifying AFib (HR 50-150 bpm) and 99.4% specificity in classifying sinus rhythm (HR 50-150 bpm) in classifiable recordings. During this study, the WHOOP ECG Feature determined 11% of recordings were inconclusive. When including all of these inconclusive recordings, the probability that the WHOOP ECG Feature would return an AFib result for a subject in AFib was 87.47% and 96.59% for a SR result for subjects in sinus rhythm. Real-world performance for inconclusive and poor recording may differ. Subgroup analysis indicated sensitivity ranged from 95.1% - 100% across all age groups, and specificity ranged from 97.6% - 100%. Specificity and sensitivity estimates for females were 99.3% and 98.9% and 99.6% and 95.4% for males. Specificity and sensitivity estimates for subjects identifying as White were 99.4% and 96.3%, 99.3% and 96.2% for Black or African American, 100% and 71.4% for American Indian or Alaska Native and 100.0% each for subjects identifying as Asian and Other. The low specificity observed in the American Indian or Alaska Native subgroup is likely due to the smaller sample size of this population in the study. The morphology of the waveform was also tested in this clinical trial by a comprehensive visual assessment of the WHOOP waveforms in comparison to the 12-lead reference. The ECG Feature produced waveforms with acceptable signal quality 99.4% of the time. WHOOP conducted a quantitative assessment comparing ECG waveforms from the WHOOP device to a 12-lead reference ECG. Similarity was evaluated by comparing key features: PR interval, QRS duration, R-wave amplitude, and RR interval. ## Conclusions The subject device and predicate devices have the same intended use and the same key technological characteristics. The WHOOP ECG Feature was assessed and evaluated through non-clinical and clinical performance testing including the special controls requirements under 21 CFR 870.2345. The testing results demonstrate that the minor differences between the subject and predicate device do not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness and support a substantial equivalence determination. The WHOOP ECG Feature is substantially equivalent to the Apple ECG App 2.0.
