Read the full statement (217 words)

The Model CH 2000 Cardiac Diagnostic System is intended for the

recording of electrocardiograms, vector cardiograms and measurement

of Microvolt T-Wave Alternans* at rest and during ECG stress testing.

The presence of Microvolt T-wave Alternans as measured by the

Analytic Spectral Method of the Model CH2000 Cardiac Diagnostic

System in patients with known, suspected or at risk of ventricular

tachyarrhythmia predicts increased risk of a cardiac event (ventricular

tachyarrhythmia or sudden death).

The Model CH2000 Cardiac Diagnostic System should be used only as

an adjunct to clinical history and the results of other non-invasive and/or

invasive tests. The interpretive results of the Alternans Processing

System should be reviewed by a qualified physician.

The predictive value of T-wave Alternans for cardiac events has not

been established in patients with active, untreated ischemia.

*Microvolt T-wave Alternans is defined as T-wave alternans which

(a) is measured from high-resolution multi-segment sensors, (b) is

presentin leads X, Y, Z, VM or two adjacent precordial leads, (c) is

at the level of 1.9 microvolts after signal optimization and

subtraction of the background noise level, (d) is at least three

standard deviations greater than the background noise level, (e)

has an onset heart rate at or below 110 beats per minute, and (f) is

sustained for all heart rates above the onset heart rate.
