Intended Use

The Zargis Acoustic Cardioscan, (ZAC), is an electronic auscultatory device, intended to provide support to the physician in the evaluation of patients' heart sounds. The product acquires and records the acoustic signals of the heart and analyzes these signals. The analysis procedure will identify specific heart sounds that may be present. Identified sounds include S1, S2, and suspected murmurs. The device is indicated for use in a clinical setting, by a physician or by trained personnel who are acting on the orders of a licensed physician. It is not intended as a sole means of diagnosis. The interpretations of heart sounds offered by the Zargis Acoustic Cardioscan are only significant when used in conjunction with physician over-read as well as consideration of all other relevant patient data.

Device Story

ZAC is an electronic auscultatory system comprising an electronic stethoscope, notebook computer, software, printer, and isolation transformer. It acquires and records heart acoustic signals; software analyzes signals to identify S1, S2, and suspected murmurs. Used in clinical settings by physicians or trained personnel. Output is presented to the clinician for review; intended to support, not replace, physician evaluation. Clinical decision-making relies on ZAC output combined with physician over-read and other patient data. Benefits include enhanced visualization and documentation of heart sounds to assist in cardiac evaluation.

Clinical Evidence

Clinical software validation was performed to ensure the performance of the enhanced software algorithm. No specific sensitivity, specificity, or AUC metrics were provided in the summary document.

Technological Characteristics

System includes electronic stethoscope, notebook computer, printer, and isolation transformer. Software performs signal analysis. Hardware components evaluated independently; system-level verification performed for interface cabling and integrated software. No specific materials or ASTM standards cited.

Indications for Use

Indicated for use in clinical settings by physicians or trained personnel under physician orders to support evaluation of heart sounds in patients. Not intended as a sole means of diagnosis; requires physician over-read.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

Manual stethoscope: A mechanical device used to project the sounds associated with the heart, arteries, and veins and other internal organs. Electronic stethoscope: An electrically amplified device used to project the sounds associated with the heart, arteries, and veins and other internal organs.

Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The device, when it is a lung sound monitor, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 870.9.

Device Description: The ZAC is an electronic auscultatory device intended to acquire, record, and analyze heart sounds.

The complete system is comprised of an electronic stethoscope, a notebook computer, software, a printer and an isolation transformer.

Intended Use: The Zargis Acoustic Cardioscan, (ZAC), is an electronic auscultatory device, intended to provide support to the physician in the evaluation of patients' heart sounds.

{1}------------------------------------------------

The product acquires and records the acoustic signals of the heart and analyzes these signals. The analysis procedure will identify specific heart sounds that may be present. Identified sounds include S1, S2, and suspected murmurs. The device is indicated for use in a clinical setting, by a physician or by trained personnel who are acting on the orders of a licensed physician. It is not intended as a sole means of diagnosis.

The interpretations of heart sounds offered by the Zargis Acoustic Cardioscan are only significant when used in conjunction with physician over-read as well as consideration of all other relevant patient data.

Substantial Equivalence: The modified ZAC is similar in design/technological characteristics, indications for use, and performance characteristics to the currently cleared ZAC product. In addition, non-clinical performance testing has been conducted to demonstrate the performance of the ZAC device and that it meets its intended use.

Safety and Performance: A comprehensive list of verification and validation testing was performed in accordance with Zargis' Design Control procedures.

The ZAC product consists of hardware and software components. The electronic stethoscope, processing platform, and isolation transformer were independently evaluated as hardware components. The printer and interface cabling were verified at the system level.

Software verification of the modified components was performed at the module and system level. The integrated ZAC system was further evaluated to verify the graphic user interface software and the ZAC system as an integrated product.

Validation of the ZAC was performed to ensure that the ZAC device consistently fulfills its intended use and the necds of the user. A clinical software validation was performed to insure the performance of the enhanced software algorithm.

Conclusion: Based upon the indications for use, technological characteristics and safety and performance testing, the Zargis Acoustic Cardioscan has been shown to be substantially equivalent to the currently cleared ZAC predicate device under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act.
