Medical Devices

• Most medical devices can be classified by finding the matching description of the device in Title 21 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Parts 862-892.

• FDA has classified and described over 1,700 distinct types of devices and organized them in the CFR into 16 medical specialty "panels" such as Cardiovascular devices or Ear, Nose, and Throat devices.

• These panels are found in Parts 862 through 892 in the CFR. For each of the devices classified by the FDA the CFR gives a general description including the intended use, the class to which the device belongs (i.e., Class I, II, or III), and information about marketing requirements.

• A FDA regulated medical device should meet the definition in a classification regulation contained in 21 CFR 862-892.

• Class 1, 2 and 3 – Class I devices are deemed to be low risk and are therefore subject to the least regulatory controls. For

example, dental floss is classified as Class I device.

– Class II devices are higher risk devices than Class I and require greater regulatory controls to provide reasonable assurance of the device’s safety and effectiveness. For example, condoms are classified as Class II devices.

– Class III devices are generally the highest risk devices and are therefore subject to the highest level of regulatory control. Class III devices must typically be approved by FDA before they are marketed. For example, replacement heart valves are classified as Class III devices.

• A body area network (BAN), also referred to as a wireless body area network (WBAN) or a body sensor network (BSN), is a wireless network of wearable computing devices.

• BAN devices may be embedded inside the body, implants, may be surface-mounted on the body in a fixed position Wearable technology or may be accompanied devices which humans can carry in different positions, in clothes pockets, by hand or in various bags.

• Whilst, there is a trend towards the miniaturization of devices, in particular, networks consisting of several miniaturized body sensor units (BSUs) together with a single body central unit (BCU), larger decimeter sized (tab and pad) sized (mobile) smart devices, accompanied devices, still play an important role in terms of acting as a data hub, data gateway and providing a user interface to view and manage BAN applications

• The FCC has approved the allocation of 40 MHz of spectrum bandwidth for medical BAN (as opposed to using Bluetooth spectrum) – IEEE 802.15.4

• BAN applications can run on a Mobile Device (like an Android or an i-phone)

BAN Challenges

12

Interoperability: WBAN systems would have to ensure seamless data transfer across standards such as Bluetooth, ZigBee etc. to promote information exchange, plug and play device interaction. Further, the systems would have to be scalable, ensure efficient migration across networks and offer uninterrupted connectivity. System devices: The sensors used in WBAN would have to be low on complexity, small in form factor, light in weight, power efficient, easy to use and reconfigurable. Further, the storage devices need to facilitate remote storage and viewing of patient data as well as access to external processing and analysis tools via the Cloud. System and device-level security: Considerable effort would be required to make BAN transmission secure and accurate. It would have to be made sure that the patient ‘’secure‘’ data is only derived from each patient's dedicated BAN system & is not mixed up with other patient's data. Further, the data generated from WBAN should have secure and limited access. Invasion of privacy: People might consider the WBAN technology as a potential threat to freedom, if the applications go beyond "secure" medical usage. Social acceptance would be key to this technology finding a wider application. Sensor validation: Pervasive sensing devices are subject to inherent communication and hardware constraints including unreliable wired/wireless network links, interference and limited power reserves. This may result in erroneous datasets being transmitted back to the end user. It is of the utmost importance especially within a healthcare domain that all sensor readings are validated. Data consistency: Data residing on multiple mobile devices and wireless patient notes need to be collected and analyzed in a seamless fashion. Within body area networks, vital patient datasets may be fragmented over a number of nodes and across a number of networked PCs or Laptops. If a medical practitioner′s mobile device does not contain all known information then the quality of patient care may degrade. Interference: The wireless link used for body sensors should reduce the interference and increase the coexistence of sensor node devices with other network devices available in the environment. This is especially important for large scale implementation of WBAN systems. Data Management: As BANs generate large volumes of data, the need to manage and maintain these datasets is of utmost importance.

BAN The 4 C’s

Cost: Today's consumers expect low cost health monitoring solutions which provide high

functionality. WBAN implementations will need to be cost optimized to be appealing

alternatives to health conscious consumers.

Constant monitoring: Users may require different levels of monitoring, for example

those at risk of cardiac ischemia may want their WBANs to function constantly, while

others at risk of falls may only need WBANs to monitor them while they are walking or

moving. The level of monitoring influences the amount of energy required and the life

cycle of the BAN before the energy source is depleted.

Constrained deployment: The WBAN needs to be wearable, lightweight and non

intrusive. It should not alter or encumber the user's daily activities. The technology should

ultimately be transparent to the user i.e., it should perform its monitoring tasks without the

user realizing it.

Consistent performance: The performance of the WBAN should be consistent. Sensor

measurements should be accurate and calibrated, even when the WBAN is switched off

and switched on again. The wireless links should be robust and work under various user

environments.

Mobile Medical Apps

• Mobile medical apps are medical devices that are mobile apps, meet the definition of a medical device and are an accessory to a regulated medical device or transform a mobile platform into a regulated medical device.

• Mobile applications (apps) can help people manage their own health and wellness, promote healthy living, & gain access to useful information when and where they need it.

• These tools are being adopted almost as quickly as they can be developed. According to industry estimates, 500 million smartphone users worldwide will be using a health care application by 2015, and by 2018, 50 percent of the more than 3.4 billion smartphone and tablet users will have downloaded mobile health applications (http://www.research2guidance.com/500m-people-will -be-using-healthcare-mobile-applications-in-2015/). These users include health care professionals, consumers, and patients.

• The FDA encourages the development of mobile medical apps that improve health care and provide consumers and health care professionals with valuable health information. The FDA also has a public health responsibility to oversee the safety and effectiveness of medical devices – including mobile medical apps.

• The FDA issued the Mobile Medical Applications Guidance for Industry and Food and Drug Administration Staff on September 25, 2013

FDA regulated Mobile Medical Apps

The FDA is taking a tailored, risk-based approach that focuses on the small subset of mobile apps that meet the regulatory definition of “device” and that:

• are intended to be used as an accessory to a regulated medical device, or

• transform a mobile platform into a regulated medical device.

• Mobile apps span a wide range of health functions. While many mobile apps carry minimal risk, those that can pose a greater risk to patients will require FDA review.

• Please visit the mobile medical apps example page for a list of examples of mobile medical apps that have been cleared or approved by the FDA. Visit the Examples of MMAs the FDA regulates webpage for a more detailed list of examples of mobile apps that would require FDA review.

• For a list of what is considered a mobile medical application, manufacturers and developers of mobile applications can search FDA’s database of existing classification by type of mobile medical application (for example diagnostic). Approved/cleared mobile medical applications will also be listed in FDA’s 510(k) and PMA databases and on the FDA’s Registration & Listing Database.

• FDA’s mobile medical apps policy does not require mobile medical app developers to seek Agency re-evaluation for minor, iterative product changes.

FDA regulated Mobile Medical Apps • Mobile apps that use a sensor or lead that is connected to a mobile platform to measure

and display the electrical signal produced by the heart (electrocardiograph or ECG). Mobile apps that use a sensor or electrode attached to the mobile platform or tools within the mobile platform itself (e.g., microphone and speaker) to electronically amplify and “project sounds associated with the heart, arteries and veins and other internal organs” (i.e., an electronic stethoscope).

• Mobile apps that use a sensor or electrode attached to the mobile platform or tools within the mobile platform itself (e.g., accelerometer) to measure physiological parameters during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and give feedback about the quality of CPR being delivered.

• Mobile apps that use a sensor attached to the mobile platform or tools within the mobile platform itself to record, view, or analyze eye movements for use in the diagnosis of balance disorders (i.e., nystagmograph).

• Mobile apps that use tools within the mobile platform (e.g., speaker) to produce controlled levels of test tones and signals intended for use in conducting diagnostic hearing evaluations and assisting in the diagnosis of possible otologic disorders (i.e., an audiometer).

• Mobile apps that use a sensor attached to the mobile platform or tools within the mobile platform itself (e.g., accelerometer) to measure the degree of tremor caused by certain diseases (i.e., a tremor transducer).
