This Software as a Medical Device (SaMD) computes various physiologic parameters from an ECG and provides these capabilities in the form of an Application Program Interface (API) {4}------------------------------------------------ 510(k) Summary for KardiaAI AliveCor, Inc. library. AliveCor-designed ECG devices ("target device") incorporate the API library into their device software to enable algorithmic analysis of ECGs to provide analytical capabilities. KardiaAI provides ECG processing functions, including ECG noise filtering and detection of noisy ECGs. It performs rhythm analysis on ECGs, specifically detecting atrial fibrillation, bradycardia, tachycardia and sinus rhythm, which can be further classified as normal sinus rhythm, sinus rhythm with wide QRS, sinus rhythm with premature ventricular contractions (PVCs), and sinus rhythm with supraventricular ectopy. It further provides beat-level annotations, including beat-level ORS locations, and, for sinus rhythm ECGs, PVC/not-PVC annotations. It also provides an average beat ECG representation, and the R-R interval tachogram. Recording and viewing of ECGs and the results of the KardiaAI analyses are to be provided by other AliveCor FDA-cleared devices (i.e., the target devices) into which the API library is incorporated, such as AliveCor's Triangle System (K183319) and KardiaMobile System (K182396). #### Indications for use [807.92(a)(5)] KardiaAI is a software analysis library intended to assess ambulatory electrocardiogram (ECG) rhythms from adult subjects (when prescribed or used under the care of a physician). The device supports analyzing data recorded in compatible formats from any ambulatory ECG devices such as event recorders, or other similar devices. The library is intended to be integrated into other device software. The library is not intended for use in life supporting, or sustaining systems, or ECG monitors, or cardiac alarm, or OTC use only devices. The KardiaAI library provides the following capabilities: - Filtering ECG noise. - Reporting heart rate measurement from ECGs, ● - o Detecting noisy ECGs, - Reporting ECG rhythm analysis for the presence of sinus rhythm, atrial fibrillation, ● bradycardia, and tachycardia; for ECGs detected as sinus rhythm, detecting normal sinus rhythm, sinus rhythm with wide QRS, sinus rhythm with premature ventricular contractions (PVC), and sinus rhythm with supraventricular ectopy, - Detecting QRS complexes in an ECG, - For ECGs detected as sinus rhythm, classifying individual beats as a PVC or non-PVC ● beat, and - o Generating an average beat from an ECG The device is not intended for use in patients who have pacemakers, ICDs, or other implanted electronic devices. #### Substantial Equivalence The subject device has the same intended use as the predicate devices intended are to process (e.g., filter and detect noise) and analyze a single channel ECG signal to detect the presence of arrhythmias. These ECG analysis outputs from the subject and predicate device all represent potential findings to be reviewed and interpreted by a qualified healthcare professional, and do not represent complete diagnoses. Both devices are software-only API libraries and are intended to be incorporated into other Alive Cor-designed medical devices ("target device"). Both the subject and predicate device process and analyze recorded ECGs, the output of which are stored, transferred, and displayed by the target device. {5}------------------------------------------------ The subject device includes all the software outputs of the predicate device with updates in algorithm design and provides several new analysis outputs which are within the general intended use shared with the predicate device. Like the predicate device, the subject device's ECG analysis functionalities with respect to arrhythmia detection are prescription features. As such, the subject device has the same intended use and technological characteristics as the predicate device. Differences between the subject device and the predicate device do not raise different questions of safety or effectiveness from the predicate device, and performance testing has demonstrated that the subject device meets its performance specifications and is as safe and as effective as the predicate device for their intended use. Therefore, KardiaAI is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. | Feature | AliveCor KardiaAI<br>(Subject Device) | AliveCor KardiaAI (K181823)<br>(Predicate Device) | |-----------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Product Code | DQK, Computer, Diagnostic,<br>Programmable | DQK, Computer, Diagnostic,<br>Programmable | | | DPS, Electrocardiograph | DPS, Electrocardiograph | | Regulation | 21 CFR§870.1425, Programmable<br>diagnostic computer | 21 CFR§870.1425, Programmable<br>diagnostic computer | | | Class II | Class II | | Feature | AliveCor KardiaAI<br>(Subject Device) | AliveCor KardiaAI (K181823)<br>(Predicate Device) | | Indications for<br>use | KardiaAI is a software analysis library<br>intended to assess ambulatory<br>electrocardiogram (ECG) rhythms from<br>adult subjects (when prescribed or used<br>under the care of a physician).

Software testing was conducted for KardiaAI. Specifically, algorithm performance testing was assessed using an AliveCor proprietary ECG database. Additional comparative testing was also performed on databases from the ANSVAAMI EC57. All analysis outputs were found to meet their performance specifications. Specifically, for the algorithm outputs which are present in both KardiaAI and the predicate device, comparative testing was conducted, and it was found that the subject device demonstrated equivalent performance to the predicate device. The results of the testing demonstrate that KardiaAI performs to its specifications and meets its intended use, which is substantially equivalent to that of the predicate device. In addition, a human factors usability study was conducted in accordance with recommendations in IEC 62366-1:2015, "Medical devices - Part 1: Application of usability engineering to medical devices", and FDA Guidance, "Applying Human Factors and Usability Engineering to Medical Devices", issued February 3, 2016. The results of the study demonstrated that users can use the device and understands its outputs based on labeling, and further understand appropriate actions if symptoms are present, such as when to seek medical care. {8}------------------------------------------------ 510(k) Summary for KardiaAI AliveCor, Inc. ### Conclusions [807.92(b)(3)] KardiaAI has the same intended use as the predicate device, and any differences in technological characteristics do not raise different questions of safety or effectiveness. Differences between the subject device and the predicate device have been tested to ensure that the device meets its intended use. The results of nonclinical testing specifically demonstrate that KardiaAI meets its intended use which is equivalent to that of the predicate device. Therefore, KardiaAI is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
