## Indications for Use

The i-PAD NF1200 is used to treat a person suffering from sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) and who exhibits symptoms of - No movement and no response when shaken . - No normal breathing .

## Device Story

i-PAD NF1200 is a semi-automated external defibrillator (AED) for use by trained responders. Device continuously acquires patient ECG and performs arrhythmia detection, excluding periods of CPR. Operation follows AHA 2005 guidelines. Upon detecting shockable rhythm, device prompts user to press SHOCK button. Delivers 150-Joule biphasic truncated exponential shock; adjusts timing based on patient impedance. If shock not delivered, device internally discharges. Features include voice prompts, data storage/transmission, and periodic self-tests (daily, weekly, 28-day, power-on). Lightweight, battery-powered for portability. Healthcare providers use audio/visual indicators to monitor status and guide rescue. Benefits include rapid defibrillation for SCA patients.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Shock waveform effectiveness and safety validated via oscilloscope measurements comparing energy parameters to predicate devices. Arrhythmia detection algorithm performance validated against AHA and ANSI/AAMI DF80 standards. Electrical safety verified per EN60601-1 and EN60601-2-4.

## Technological Characteristics

Biphasic truncated exponential waveform; 150-Joule output; impedance-compensated timing. Battery-powered. Periodic self-test functionality (daily, weekly, 28-day). Compliant with EN60601-1, EN60601-2-4, and ANSI/AAMI DF80 standards. Data storage and transmission capability.

## Regulatory Identification

An automated external defibrillator (AED) system consists of an AED and those accessories necessary for the AED to detect and interpret an electrocardiogram and deliver an electrical shock (e.g., battery, pad electrode, adapter, and hardware key for pediatric use). An AED system analyzes the patient's electrocardiogram, interprets the cardiac rhythm, and automatically delivers an electrical shock (fully automated AED), or advises the user to deliver the shock (semi-automated or shock advisory AED) to treat ventricular fibrillation or pulseless ventricular tachycardia.

DEVICE TRADE NAME: i-PAD NF1200 Semi-automated External Defibrillator COMMON NAME: Semi-automated External Defibrillator CLASSIFICATION NAMES: Low Energy Defibrillator PRODUCT CODE and REGULATION NUMBER: MKJ, 21 CFR 870.5310 -Automated External Defibrillator

#### PREDICATE DEVICES:

The i-PAD NF1200 is substantially equivalent to other marketed AEDs in the United States, specifically the following:

| Device Name               | Manufacturer            | 510(K) Number |
|---------------------------|-------------------------|---------------|
| Philips HeartStart OnSite | Philips Medical Systems | K020715       |
| Philips HeartStart FR2+   | Philips Medical Systems | K013425       |
| Defibtech Sentry DDU-100A | Defibtech, LLC          | K013896       |

The shock delivered by the device is in the form of a Biphasic Truncated Exponential which has characteristics and results that are substantially equivalent to the cited predicate devices (K013425 and K013896). The operation of this device and its minor differences with the predicate device does not raise new issues regarding safety and efficacy.

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

# DESCRIPTION of the DEVICE:

The i-PAD NF1200 is a semi-automated external defibrillator designed for minimally trained individuals. It provides simple and direct voice prompts and indications for a straightforward rescue operation. The i-PAD NF1200 needs the user to press its SHOCK button to deliver a defibrillating shock.

During a resoue operation, it continuously acquires the electrocardiogram (ECG) of the patient. It also conducts arrhythmia detection continuously except during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). The timing and duration of the CPR are in accordance with the recommendations of the American Heart Association (AHA) 2005 Guidelines for CPR and Emergency Cardiovascular Care (ECC).

The i-PAD NF1200 is lightweight and battery powered for maximum portability. Its battery pack has a capacity of 200 shocks (10 hours of operating time.)

It delivers a 150-Joule biphasic truncated exponential shock waveform that it compensates for patient impedance by adjusting its timing parameter. If the user decides not to deliver a charge, the i-PAD NF1200 disarms itself by dumping the charge into an internal resistive load.

The i-PAD NF1200 is capable of saving data and transmitting them to an external device.

The i-PAD NF1200 conducts periodic (daily, weekly, and 28-day) self-tests, a battery insertion self-test, and self-tests during power-ON and run-time. It informs the user if an error is detected through audio and visual indicators.

#### Indications for Use

The i-PAD NF1200 is used to treat a person suffering from sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) and who exhibits symptoms of

- No movement and no response when shaken .
- No normal breathing .

#### Contraindication for Use

The device must not be used on a person who:

- Is moving or is responsive when shaken .
- . Is breathing normally
- Target Patients
- . Adults
- Children over 55 lbs or 8 years old .
- The device is not to be used on children below 8 years old or under 55 lbs .

#### Intended User

The device is intended for use by persons:

- who have been specifically trained in its operation. .
- who have training in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) or other physician-authorized . emergency medical response program in accordance with local and state requirements

### COMPARISON OF TECHNOLOGY CHARACTERISTICS

The i-PAD NF1200 employs the same fundamental technological characteristics as the predicate devices. Differences in implementation are verified and validated using relevant test protocols.

#### SUMMARY of TESTING:

#### Shock Waveform Effectiveness and Safety

Substantial equivalence with the predicate device is shown by bench testing. The submission device and the predicate device are discharged and the shock waveform parameters are captured using an oscilloscope with energy measurement capability.

Statistical analysis is used to show that the mean values of the shock waveform parameters of the i-PAD NF1200 are closer to the mean values of the shock waveform parameters of the Philips HeartStart FR2+ than the mean values of the Defibtech DDU-100A shock waveform parameters.

#### Arrhythmia Detection Algorithm

The arrhythmia detection algorithm is tested using the recommendations of the American Heart Association and the ANSI/AAMI DF80 Standard.

#### Electrical Safety and Compliance to Defibrillator Standard

The i-PAD NF1200 was tested using EN60601-1 and EN60601-2-4. The EN60601-2-4 has the same contents as the ANSI/AAMI DF80 Standard except for some additional sections in the ANSI/AAMI DF80 regarding Defibrillator Electrodes and External Pacing.

#### CONCLUSION

The i-PAD NF1200 is substantially equivalent to its predicate devices. Testing shows that the submission device does not raise new issues of safety and effectiveness.

Dear Ms Duncan:

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 such additional controls.
