Intended Use
The EverOn (modified EarlySense™ ES-16) system is intended for continuous measurement of respiration rate and heart rate, in an automatic contact-less manner, at home, hospital or clinic setting. The system is indicated for use in children, adolescents and adults. The operation of the EverOn has been studied in children (weight ≥10 Kg) and adults (weight ≤111 Kg) during sleep and resting condition.
Device Story
EverOn System provides continuous, contact-less monitoring of respiration and heart rates. System components include an under-mattress piezoelectric sensing unit and a bedside control unit. The piezoelectric sensor converts mechanical body movements into electrical signals; the control unit processes these signals to calculate vital signs, detect movement, and identify bed-exit events. Users define upper/lower thresholds for heart and respiration rates; the system triggers audible/visible alerts if thresholds are exceeded. The bedside unit features a display for icons, graphs, and logs, with a relay connector for integration with nurse call systems. Used in hospitals, clinics, or homes, the device assists clinicians or caregivers in patient surveillance. Output allows for real-time monitoring and timely intervention, potentially improving patient safety by alerting staff to physiological changes or unauthorized bed exits.
Clinical Evidence
Performance testing included both bench and clinical data to demonstrate system accuracy. Testing covered electrical/electromagnetic compatibility, mechanical vibration/shock resistance, operational environment, and software validation. Alerting features were verified via bench testing.
Technological Characteristics
Piezoelectric sensor for mechanical-to-electrical signal conversion; under-mattress form factor; bedside control unit with LED/button interface; relay connector for nurse call integration. Complies with IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-1-4, and AAMI/ISO 14971-1.
Indications for Use
Indicated for continuous respiration and heart rate monitoring in children (≥10 kg), adolescents, and adults (≤111 kg) in home, hospital, or clinic settings during sleep or rest.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A breathing (ventilatory) frequency monitor is a device intended to measure or monitor a patient's respiratory rate. The device may provide an audible or visible alarm when the respiratory rate, averaged over time, is outside operator settable alarm limits. This device does not include the apnea monitor classified in § 868.2377.

{1}------------------------------------------------
#### 7.1.8 Device Description:
The modified EarlySense™ EverOn System is designed for continuous and contact-less monitoring of respiration and heart rates. The system automatically starts measuring whenever the patient is in bed under resting or sleeping conditions. The EverOn enables the user to define upper and lower thresholds so an alert notification (audible and visible) is given to the user, if either heart rate or respiration rate exceed the thresholds set by the user. The EverOn also detects patient movement levels and provides patient out-of-bed (Bed Exit) notification to the user.
The EverOn System consists of the following main components:
- A Sensing Unit placed under the mattress or mattress pad. 트
- A Control Unit (Bedside Unit). .
- Proprietary recording and data analysis software 트
The under mattress Sensing Unit includes a piezoelectric sensor, which converts mechanical movements into an electric signal. The Control Unit receives the electric signals, processes them and finally calculates, logs, displays the patient's parameters, and generates alerts as per set thresholds. when needed.
#### 7.1.9 Intended Use:
(modified EarlySense™ ES-16) system is intended for The EverOn continuous measurement of respiration rate and heart rate, in an automatic contact-less manner, at home, hospital or clinic setting. The system is indicated for use in children, adolescents and adults. The operation of the EverOn has been studied in children (weight ≥10 Kg) and adults (weight ≤111 Kg) during sleep and resting condition.
#### 7.1.10 Performance Standards:
No performance standards have been established for such device under Section 514 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. However, the modified ES-16 System complies with voluntary standards such as IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-1-4, AAMI / ISO 14971-1.
#### 7.1.12 Performance Data & Substantial Equivalence
The EverOn System is substantially equivalent in all aspects, e.g., technological characteristics (i.e., Piezo-electric sensing), mode of operation (contact-less monitoring), performance characteristics (accuracy), intended use, etc., to the ES-16 System cleared under K070375.
{2}------------------------------------------------
The modifications involve the following main changes:
Software and User Interface
- An option was added enabling to notify the user (alert) when . certain heart rate and respiration rate thresholds, pre-defined by the user, have been crossed.
- An option of bed exit notice was added. The system detects, . records and reports body motion level and alerts upon bed exit.
- The user's interface was improved to include a clearer, more I interactive and user friendly interface to enhance presentation of information to the user and to allow the user to insert event into the system log-files.
#### Hardware
The design of the Control Unit has been changed as follows:
- The external design of the bedside Control Unit was changed to include a larger control unit that allows the presentation of larger icons and graphs, enabling a clearer and more convenient user interface.
- Control buttons and LEDs were added to the Control Unit, . allowing for more convenient and intuitive user interaction.
- A connector (relay) was added to allow for interface with existing ■ nurse call systems.
The modified System was subjected to the following testing:
- Electrical and electromagnetic testing 트
- Mechanical vibration and shock resistance testing I
- Operational Environmental testing
- Software verification and validation .
- Bench testing of alerting features 트
- Performance testing demonstrating the accuracy of the system I (bench and clinical data)
Based on the design verification and validation processes, performed as a result of risk analysis assessment, EarlySense Ltd. believes that the EverOn System, is substantially equivalent to the cleared ES-16, without raising new safety and/or effectiveness issues.
