## Indications for Use

The Zio Patch is a prescription-only, single-patient-use, continuously recording ECG monitor that can be worn up to 14 days. It is indicated for use on patients who may be asymptomatic or who may suffer from transient symptoms such as palpitations, shortness of breath, dizziness, light-headedness, pre-syncope, syncope, fatigue, or anxiety.

## Device Story

Zio Patch is a single-patient-use, wearable, continuous ECG monitor; worn on chest for up to 14 days. Device records cardiac electrical activity; patient returns patch to iRhythm for data analysis. iRhythm processes data; generates report for physician review. Physician uses report to diagnose cardiac arrhythmias; facilitates clinical decision-making regarding patient treatment. Benefits include extended monitoring duration compared to traditional Holter monitors, increasing probability of capturing transient cardiac events.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided in the summary document; substantial equivalence based on technological characteristics and intended use comparison to predicate.

## Technological Characteristics

Wearable, single-patient-use ECG monitor; adhesive patch form factor. Continuous recording capability up to 14 days. Solid-state memory for data storage. Non-invasive; battery-powered. Analysis performed via external processing facility.

## Regulatory Identification

A medical magnetic tape recorder is a device used to record and play back signals from, for example, physiological amplifiers, signal conditioners, or computers.

Dear Mr. Righter:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
