Brief Summary:
This clinical study will be performed in three phases.
The purpose of Phase 1 of this study is to compare the ECG data recorded using the ZywieZ3 Sensor and ZywieZ3 Adhesive ("Test Device") to the data recorded by a traditional 3-lead ECG device that uses wet Ag-AgCl adhesives in a standard lead location ("Reference Device"). The ECG signals will be recorded simultaneously with both ECG devices from the subjects in conditions that represent the devices' intended use for 1 hour. This comparison will determine whether the Test Device recordings are similar to the "gold standard" Reference Device. The testing methodology for this portion of the study is based on guidance provided by the FDA to the Sponsor.
The purpose of Phase 2 of this study is to evaluate the ECG signal quality of the Test Device over a 10-day simulated use period by human subjects. This duration of 10 days represents the expected maximum period of usage for the Test Device by the Sponsor. The skin adhesion properties of the Test Device will be evaluated, including a determination of whether any skin reactions, discoloration of the Test Device adhesive (including the snaps and hydrogel), or Test Device adhesive degradation leading to particulate formation occurs over a 10-day simulated use period by human subjects. During this testing, a human factor critical task analysis will be conducted via a collection of observational data regarding success in subject completion of Sponsor-identified critical tasks, subject completion of knowledge questionnaires relating to aspects of Sponsor-identified critical tasks, and subject completion of general subjective questionnaires regarding any difficulty they experienced with use of the Test Device. Testing methodology for this portion of the study is based upon the "Adhesive Performance (Duration of Use)" \[Section 5.4\] procedures from ANSI/AAMI Standard EC12:2000/(R)2020, Disposable ECG Electrodes and the 2016 FDA Guidance for Industry and Food and Drug Administration Staff titled "Applying Human Factors and Usability Engineering to Medical Devices."
The purpose of Phase 3 of this clinical study is to assess the effects of variable ECG electrode placement for the ZywieZ3 Sensor and ZywieZ3 Adhesive ("Test Device"). This testing is intended to determine whether ECG electrode placement variability produces unacceptable / non-clinically relevant ECG data and what level of ECG electrode placement variability is acceptable.

Detailed Description:
For Phase 1 and Phase 2, at least 25 subjects will participate in both study phases wearing a test and reference device for 1 hour and then the test device for a 10-day test period. Subjects will apply the Test Device on their skin by following the Sponsor-provided instructions. A Testing Facility analyst will conduct an initial visual evaluation of the level of skin adhesion for the Test Device and then apply the Reference Device to the subjects' chest. ECG data collection will be initiated for the Test Device and Reference Device by subjects and a Testing Facility analyst, respectively. During ECG data collection initiation, a Testing Facility analyst, following the 2016 FDA Guidance for Industry and Food and Drug Administration Staff titled "Applying Human Factors and Usability Engineering to Medical Devices," will collect observational data regarding each subject's success or failure to complete Sponsor-identified critical tasks correctly. Following ECG data collection initiation, subjects will complete a knowledge questionnaire to determine whether they fully understood Sponsor-identified critical tasks and a general subjective questionnaire regarding any difficulty they experienced with the use of the Test Device. Subjects will observe a 5-minute stabilization period to ensure that both devices are connected appropriately and have a stable input signal. Following the stabilization period, 25 minutes of ECG data will be collected while subjects are sitting idle. Subjects will then complete three standardized 10-minute activity periods of standing up, lying down, and repeatedly transitioning from lying down to standing up while ECG data are collected by the Test Device and Reference Device, completing a 60-minute data collection. After completing the 1-hour ECG data collection period, the reference device will be removed. Approximately 1 hour after the removal of the Reference Device, a trained Testing Facility analyst will visually score the skin condition at the relevant reference adhesive application sites. The subjects will be allowed to leave the Testing Facility and continue wearing the Test Device for 10 days. Subjects will be instructed to follow the Sponsor-provided instructions for use during this time period.
For Phase 1, subjects will be shown an instructional video and read the patient guide included in the sensor kit. Subjects will then be asked to apply the Test device themselves. A Testing Facility analyst will collect observational data regarding each subject's success or failure to complete Sponsor-identified critical tasks correctly, and the subject will complete a knowledge questionnaire to determine whether they fully understood Sponsor-identified critical tasks. The Testing Facility analyst will measure the Test device placement offset after subjects have applied the device to themselves. If the device is placed grossly incorrectly, the Training Facility Analyst will note the issue and guide the subject in correcting the adhesive placement. The analyst will not physically adjust the placement but will only provide guidance, similar to how Zywie's customer support would guide over the phone when incorrect data is identified during production use. The Sponsor will download ECG data from the Test Device from the initial 1-hour ECG data collection period from cloud-based data repositories. The testing facility will provide the Reference Device data to the Sponsor for data analysis according to the statistical analysis plan. The analysis results will be included as an appendix to the study's final report upon completion. Two cardiologists contracted by the Sponsor will independently review de-identified ECG data recorded using both devices in accordance with the statistical analysis plan. A third cardiologist, also contracted by the Sponsor, will be employed to review the ECG data collected if the first two do not agree with their assessment.
For Phase 2 on Day 10, subjects will return to the Testing Facility for a final visual evaluation of the level of skin adhesion of the Test Device by a trained Testing Facility analyst. The subject will then remove the Test Device, and a trained Testing Facility analyst will visually examine the Test Device Adhesive for any discoloration (including snaps and hydrogel) or particulate formation. At 1 hour after removal of the Test Device, a trained Testing Facility analyst will visually evaluate the skin condition at the adhesive application site.
For Phase 2, the Sponsor will download ECG data for the Test Device following the 10-day period from a cloud-based data repository for data analysis according to the statistical analysis plan. Two cardiologists contracted by the Sponsor will review the collected ECG data to determine whether the Test Device produced clinically relevant ECG data during the entire 10-day wear time. A third cardiologist, also contracted by the Sponsor, will be employed to review the ECG data collected if the first two do not agree with their assessment. Upon completion of the analysis, the analysis results will be appended to the study's final report. Skin adhesion scores and skin condition evaluations will also be summarized, and the Testing Facility will conduct a descriptive statistical analysis for each visual evaluation time point. Summaries of electrode discoloration/particulate observation evaluations will also be prepared.
For Phase 3, at least 20 subjects will participate in this study for a single test day. A testing facility analyst will apply the test device to the ideal location (control). The subjects will wear the Test Device for 15 minutes of ECG recording. The test device will then be applied to the skin in nine incorrect test locations/orientations (test positions) for all subjects as described in Appendix 2, Table 5, and worn for an additional 15 minutes of ECG recording for each test position. A statistical analysis of ECG recordings from the electrode placements will be conducted. Two cardiologists contracted by the Sponsor will independently review the ECG data recorded for the Test Device applied to the ideal (control) and 9 incorrect test locations/orientations in accordance with the statistical analysis plan. A third cardiologist, also contracted by the Sponsor, will be employed to review the ECG data collected if the first two do not agree with their assessment. Upon completion of the analysis, the analysis results will be appended to the study's final report.
