Regulation
21 CFR 880.6305
Device Class
Class 2
Indications for Use
The Proteus® Patch is a miniaturized, wearable data-logger for ambulatory recording of physiological and behavioral metrics such as heart rate, activity, body angle relative to gravity, and time-stamped, patient-logged events, including events signaled by swallowing the Ingestible Sensor accessory. The Proteus Patch enables unattended data collection for clinical and research applications. The Proteus Patch may be used in any instance where quantifiable analysis of event-associated physiological and behavioral metrics is desirable.
Device Story
Proteus Patch is a wearable sensor collecting heart rate, activity, body angle, and ingestion events; ingestible sensor (pill) communicates via volume conduction upon stomach arrival. Patch stores and wirelessly transmits data to general computing device for display. Used in clinical/research settings for unattended data collection; enables healthcare providers to analyze event-associated physiological metrics. Benefits include objective tracking of medication adherence and physiological response to therapy.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data required; substantial equivalence supported by bench testing. Bench testing included validation of three-axis accelerometer against known acceleration, heart rate quantification using modified Hamilton-Tompkins algorithm (per ANSI/AAMI EC 13), and ingestible sensor activation/lifetime testing.
Technological Characteristics
Wearable ovoid patch (102mm x 56mm x 10mm, 11g) with LiMn coin cell battery. Sensing: biopotential low-frequency amplifier (heart rate), accelerometer (activity/body angle), biopotential high-frequency amplifier (impedance), bio-galvanic ingestible circuit (ingestion). Connectivity: wireless transmission to general computing device. Software: modified Hamilton-Tompkins algorithm for heart rate.
Indications for Use
Indicated for ambulatory patients requiring recording of physiological and behavioral metrics, including heart rate, activity, body angle, and ingestion events, for clinical and research applications.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An ingestible event marker is a prescription device used to record time-stamped, patient-logged events. The ingestible component links wirelessly through intrabody communication to an external recorder which records the date and time of ingestion as well as the unique serial number of the ingestible device.
Special Controls
In combination with the general controls of the FD&C Act, the Proteus Personal Monitor including Ingestion Event Marker is subject to the following special controls:
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The special controls for this device are:(1) The device must be demonstrated to be biocompatible and non-toxic;
(2) Nonclinical, animal, and clinical testing must provide a reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness, including device performance, durability, compatibility, usability (human factors testing), event recording, and proper excretion of the device;
(3) Appropriate analysis and nonclinical testing must validate electromagnetic compatibility performance, wireless performance, and electrical safety; and
(4) Labeling must include a detailed summary of the nonclinical and clinical testing pertinent to use of the device and the maximum number of daily device ingestions.

## Unmodified Device
Proteus® Patch Including Ingestible Sensor (K131009) .
### General Device Description
The Proteus Patch is a body-worn sensor that collects physiological and behavioral metrics such as heart rate, activity, body angle relative to gravity, and time-stamped user-logged events generated by swallowing the Proteus Ingestible Sensor. The Ingestible Sensor is embedded inside an inactive tablet (the Pill) for ease of handling and swallowing. Once the Ingestible Sensor reaches the stomach, it activates and communicates its presence and unique identifier to the Patch. The Patch stores and wirelessly sends the physiological, behavioral, event, and ingestion data to a general computing device for display.
