Device Class
Class 2
Intended Use
The device is used to provide data to qualified medical personnel or trained users for the purpose of assessing the patient's cardiac health via blood pressure readings taken during daily activity for up to a 48-hour period. Measurements of systolic, diastolic, and heart rate are made and stored. The device can also be used to provide blood pressure and heart rate data in single measurement mode. The device is also intended to provide preliminary blood pressure data from ambulatory patients for non-time critical applications only. It is for use in hospitals, clinics or physicians offices by a qualified physician or trained staff member under the supervision of that physician. It is also intended for home care use by a trained patient with periodic health consultations from his or her physician. Patient diagnosis is not to be performed solely based on the results of this device.
Device Story
Piesometer MK-1 is a non-invasive automated blood pressure monitor for ambulatory use. Device utilizes electronic pressure cuff with three acoustic sensors: two sensors on biceps detect Korotkoff sounds; one sensor on triceps detects interference signals. System employs adaptive interference cancellation signal processing to filter out noise and vibration, enabling readings in high-noise environments. Device records systolic, diastolic, and heart rate data over 48-hour periods or single measurements. Used in hospitals, clinics, or home settings by physicians, staff, or trained patients. Output displayed on 32-character LCD; data stored for review. Healthcare providers use output to assess cardiac health; device intended for preliminary data collection in non-time critical applications. Patient diagnosis must not rely solely on device results.
Clinical Evidence
Bench and clinical testing performed. Results indicate device is as safe and effective as predicate devices. No specific quantitative clinical metrics (e.g., sensitivity, specificity) provided in summary.
Technological Characteristics
Auscultatory blood pressure measurement system using Korotkoff sound technique. Features three acoustic sensors (microphones) for adaptive interference cancellation. Powered by rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery. Includes 32-character LCD display. Memory capacity for 60 records. Form factor: 13.4 cm x 9.5 cm x 4.4 cm. Weight: 850 grams.
Indications for Use
Indicated for ambulatory patients requiring cardiac health assessment via blood pressure and heart rate monitoring. Suitable for use in clinical settings or home care by trained patients. Not for sole diagnostic use.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A noninvasive blood pressure measurement system is a device that provides a signal from which systolic, diastolic, mean, or any combination of the three pressures can be derived through the use of tranducers placed on the surface of the body.

#### 2. Equivalent legally marketed devices
This product is similar in function and design to the Spacelabs ABP (Ambulatory Blood Pressure), K031479, K941167, K904318, K855127 and, SunTech Accutracker DX, K913844.
#### Indications for Use (intended use) 3.
The device is used to provide data to qualified medical personnel or trained users for the purpose of assessing the patient's cardiac health via blood pressure readings taken during daily activity for up to a 48-hour period. Measurements of systolic, diastolic, and heart rate are made and stored. The device can also be used to provide blood pressure and heart rate data in single measurement mode. The device is also intended to provide preliminary blood pressure data from ambulatory patients for non-time critical applications only. It is for use in hospitals, clinics or physicians offices by a qualified physician or trained staff member under the supervision of that physician. It is also intended for home care use by a trained patient with periodic health consultations from his or her physician. Patient diagnosis is not to be performed solely based on the results of this device.
#### 4. Description of the Device
The Model PIESOMETER MK-1 Digital Blood Pressure Monitor measures systolic and diastolic blood pressure and heart rate using adaptive interference cancellation (signal processing) technologies. The system employs three acoustic sensors (i.e. microphones) in the electronic pressure cuff. During a blood pressurement, two acoustic sensors are placed in the traditional location on the patient's biceps. This set of sensors, operating much like a conventional stethoscope, senses the Korotkoff sounds. Unique to the PIESOMETER MK-1 is a second set of a sensor placed in the triceps area. This sensor serves to detect any interference signals that would normally compromise the reading. This allows reading to be taken even in noise and vibration intensive environment. This technology functions by identifying signals lying within the audio frequency and filtering out the interference signal. The CANAMET PIESOMETER is protected by U.S. Patent 6,520,918.
