Respiration, ECG, pulse oximetry, blood pressure, temperature, and body position data may be collected. The system is intended to provide analysis of breathing patterns as an aid in classifying apneas as well as displaying heart rate changes from electrocardiographic waveforms in the wake and sleeping states as well as activities of daily living. The LifeShirt Real-Time is indicated for reuse by multiple adult patients in applications that may include pharmaceutical studies in which respiratory information is a useful indicator, or the general healthcare market where patients may be monitored at home and the data provided to their physicians as an aid to diagnosis and treatment. ## Device Story LifeShirt Real-Time is a wearable diagnostic system for recording physiological data (respiration, ECG, pulse oximetry, blood pressure, temperature, body position) during daily activities and sleep. System includes a garment, recorder/transmitter, wireless flash card, and analysis software. Data is recorded on-body and transmitted wirelessly to a networked computer for physician review. Device aids in apnea classification and heart rate monitoring. Used in home or clinical environments; operated by patients or healthcare providers. Physician reviews output to assist in diagnosis and treatment decisions. Wireless transmission capability allows remote data access. ## Clinical Evidence Bench testing only. Testing verified accurate data recording and transmission to the PC system and electromagnetic compatibility. ## Technological Characteristics Components: garment, recorder/transmitter, wireless flash card, VivoMonitor software, VivoLogic analysis software. Optional accessories: pulse oximeter, blood pressure cuff, temperature sensor. Connectivity: wireless transmission to networked computer. Power: battery-operated recorder. Data processing: digital signal recording and analysis. ## Regulatory Identification A programmable diagnostic computer is a device that can be programmed to compute various physiologic or blood flow parameters based on the output from one or more electrodes, transducers, or measuring devices; this device includes any associated commercially supplied programs. ## Predicate Devices - Reusable Multiple-Patient LifeShirt with VivoLogic Analysis Software - GMP Companies, Inc., LifeSync® Wireless ECG System - Life Sensing Instrument Company, Teletrens Model TM10 Multi-Parameter Portable Patient Transmitter - Mortara Instrument Inc., Ambulatory X-12 Telemetry Module ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

The purpose of this Special 510(k) is to modify the LifeShirt. The only difference between the devices is that the new device is indicated for use with an optional temperature probe, which is supplied, and uses a wireless data card in its recorder to permit the wireless transmission of its recorded data to a networked computer. ## Intended Use The LifeShirt Real-Time is intended for use during daily activities of living and sleep, for the purpose of recording physiological data for later analysis by a physician. Respiration, ECG, pulse oximetry, blood pressure, temperature, and body position data may be collected. The system is intended to provide analysis of breathing patterns as an aid in classifying apneas as well as displaying heart rate changes from electrocardiographic waveforms in the wake and sleeping states as well as activities of daily living. The LifeShirt Real-Time is indicated for reuse by multiple adult patients in applications that may include pharmaceutical studies in which respiratory information is a useful indicator, or the general healthcare market where patients may be monitored at home and the data provided to their physicians as an aid to diagnosis and treatment. ## Technological Characteristics The LifeShirt Real-Time consists of the following components: the LifeShirt garment, LifeShirt Recorder/Transmitter, a wireless flash card, a data Flash Card, VivoMonitor™ real-time software and VivoLogic® analysis and reporting software. A cleared pulse oximeter, blood pressure cuff, and a temperature sensor are optional accessories provided for use with the device. ## Performance Data Performance testing included verification that data recorded by the LifeShirt recorder is accurately transmitted and received by the PC computer system. In addition, testing was performed to demonstrate electromagnetic compatibility. ## Substantial Equivalence LifeShirt Real-Time has the same intended use and similar indications, principles of operation, and technological characteristics as its predicate devices. {2}------------------------------------------------ The minor differences in the LifeShirt Real-Time and the cleared LifeShirt which are the optional temperature probe and wireless communication do not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness as the predicate devices have similar features. Performance data demonstrates that the LifeShirt Real-Time is as safe and effective as the predicate Multiple Patient Use LifeShirt. Thus, the LifeShirt Real-Time is substantially equivalent to its predicate devices. {3}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/3/Picture/1 description: The image shows the seal of the Department of Health & Human Services (HHS) of the United States of America.
