CONTRAINDICATIONS

• Do not use the Zio XT Patch for patients with symptomatic episodes where instance variations in cardiac performance could result in immediate danger to the patient.

• Do not use the Zio XT Patch in combination with external cardiac de fibrillators or high frequency surgical equipment near strong magnetic fields or devices such as MRI.

• Do not use the Zio XT Patch on patients with neuro-stimulator as it may disrupt the quality of ECG data

• Do not use the Zio XT Patch on patients who do not have the competency to wear the device for the prescribed monitoring period.

DESCRIPTION

The Zio ECG Monitoring System is a ambulatory Electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring system. The Zio ECG Monitoring System consists of two components: (1) Zio Monitor ECG Recorder and the (2) proprietary algorithm software.

The Zio XT Patch is a single-patient-use ECG monitor that provides a continuous, single-channel recording for up to 14 days. The Zio XT Patch records ECG without patient interaction, with the goal of improving patient compliance via simplicity of operation. Patients have the option of pressing a convenient trigger button and filling out a log to document symptomatic events, which will support symptom-rhythm correlation in the diagnostic report.

After conclusion of the wear period (up to 14 days), the patient removes the Zio XT Patch and returns it by post to iRhythm for processing. After receipt, the data is analyzed by iRhythm’s proprietary algorithm before a Certified Cardiographic Technician (CCT) reviews the results and generates a report of the key findings.

INDICATIONS FOR USE

The Zio XT 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.

WARNINGS

• Do not use the Zio XT Patch on patients with known allergic reaction to adhesives or hydrogels or with family history of adhesive skin allergies. Patient may experience skin irritation.

• Do not reuse the Zio XT Patch on multiple patients. It is a single patient use device. Reuse will cause incorrect patient data and the patient may experience skin irritation.

• Prior to patch application, examine the skin area of the patient for certain skin conditions (such as dermatitis, eczema, rashes/hives), acute/chronic cutaneous infections or irritation.

• The product may elicit anaphylactic responses in individuals who are allergic to latex.

If skin irritation such as severe redness, itching or allergic symptoms develop, remove the Zio XT Patch from the patient’s chest.

Please call 0808 189 3411.

CAUTION: Federal (USA) law restricts the sale of this device to or on the order of a physician.

PRECAUTIONS

• The Zio XT Patch includes temperature and humidity limitations. If exposed, patients may experience degradation of adhesive performance causing the device to slip or fall off during the patient wear duration.

• The Zio XT Patch has a shelf-life date. Use of expired device may cause a degradation of ECG signal quality and/or low battery condition.

• Do not use the Zio XT Patch if package is damaged. Device may not perform as intended.

• Safety and effectiveness of the Zio XT Patch on pediatric patients (younger than 18 years old) has not been established.

• Safety and effectiveness of the Zio XT Patch on patients receiving any form of pacing therapy has not been established. Paced cardiac rhythms may not be accurately detected and may be incorrectly classified.

Field strengths from fixed RF transmitters, as determined by an electromagnetic site survey,a should be less than the compliance level in each frequency range.b

Interference may occur in the vicinity of equipment marked with the following symbol:

Table 3, Continued

NOTE 1—At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.

NOTE 2—These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects, and people.

a Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast, and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the Zio XT Patch is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the Zio XT Patch should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as re-orienting or relocating the Zio XT Patch.

b Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.

Table 4: Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the Zio XT Patch

The Zio XT Patch is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the Zio XT Patch can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the Zio XT Patch as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment.
