Device Classification

Product Code QYE Reduced Ejection Fraction Machine Learning-based Notification Software
Device Class Class 2 - Special Controls
CFR Regulation 21 CFR 870.2380
Definition Reduced Ejection Fraction Machine Learning-based Notification Software Employs Machine Learning Techniques To Suggest The Likelihood Of A Reduced Ejection Fraction For Further Referral Or Diagnostic Follow-up.
What this classification means

Class II devices require demonstration of substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device. This pathway does not require clinical trials - it relies on engineering equivalence and performance data. Most Cardiovascular devices follow this clearance model.
