  • I suggest leading caps on the Ring and Charger so that they are easy to distinguish within text.

Product overview
The Evie Ring and its companion app (available for free in the Apple App Store) is a self-monitoring solution for certain physiological wellness data in adults. Wellness data tracked by the ring includes heart rate (both heart rate at rest and heart rate variability), blood oxygenation (SpO2), respiration rate, steps, active minutes, skin temperature variation average, calories burned, sleep duration, and sleep stages. In the app, users can track mood, menstrual symptoms, and menstrual cycle.
In addition to the metrics above, the Evie app enables users to:

  • Set personalized goals and monitor progress
  • See wellness trends over time
  • Receive educational insights correlating different data types (e.g., menstrual cycle and sleep)

The ring is intended to be dedicated to a single user who can recharge as needed. With normal use, the ring battery will last five or more days and the portable charging case will hold ten ring charges. The Evie Ring connects to an iPhone® 8 or later running iOS® 16 or later via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). For the Evie Ring and app to work properly, the phone must be connected to Wi- Fi or cellular service.

Using the Evie Ring

  1. Wearing the Evie Ring
    • Ring Fit: The open part of the ring should sit on the top of your finger so that the sensors are in the optimal place to read your biometrics. Wearing the ring upside down with the open design on the palm-side of your hand may result in inaccurate or no data.
    • Sensors: There are three sensor bumps that protrude slightly on the inside of the ring that you may feel. A snug but comfortable fit ensures the most accurate readings.
  2. Biometrics measured
    •  Wellness monitoring
    • Heart rate: measures pulse rate in beats per minute (BPM), graphical displays reflect averages over time
    • SpO2: measures blood oxygenation level (oxygen as a percentage of blood), graphical displays reflect averages over time
    • Heart rate variability (HRV): measures the variation in time between each heartbeat
    • Respiration rate average (RR): measures breaths per minute
    • kin temperature variation
    • Activity tracking
    • Active minutes
    • Steps
    • Distance traveled
    • Calories burned (using both active and metabolic rates)
    • Sleep

SpO2 Accuracy

  • SpO2 accuracy and data analysis has been determined by calculating the accuracy root mean square error (Arms) between the Evie Ring and arterial blood gas data.

Clinical Study Summary

  • An IRB-approved clinical study was performed at UCSF (San Francisco, CA) using two Movano oximeters. There were 11 subjects enrolled and tested that met the inclusion/exclusion criteria, 6 men and 5 women, with 4/11 meeting Fitzpatrick Scale types V and VI.
  • Test articles were placed on an index finger and index fingertip. Using an arterial radial cannula, control samples were taken while breathing room air and then hypoxia was induced to different and stable levels of oxyhemoglobin saturation over the claims of the study, taking samples at each plateau about 30 seconds apart. No adverse events were reported. All data were recorded for analysis consisting of at least 200 data points. Data for one subject was used to calibrate the test samples, with data for 11 subjects analyzed per ISO 80601-2-61 and plotted on modified Bland Altman graphs. (See Figures 1 and 2.)
  • Motion and low perfusion were not tested. The Arms was 3% over the entire tested range.Movano-EVIE01-Evie-Wellness-Ring-6

Heart Rate Accuracy

  • Heart rate accuracy and data analysis has been determined by calculating the Arms between the Evie Ring and the forecasted value
  • Sample devices were bench tested for pulse rate accuracy over the range 40 to 240 bpm using calibrated test equipment and the following tests: stepped variability, greatest variability, random variability, and consistency for 240 samples. All results were recorded and analyzed using the Arms where the square root of each sample forecasted value less the observed value squared was calculated. The accuracy was within +/- 3 bpm over the entire tested range

Maintenance

  • Software upgrades
    • From time to time, the firmware on the ring or the app itself will need to be updated to ensure the best user experience and provide new features. When you open the app, if there is an update ready for either the ring or the mobile app, you will be prompted to upgrade to the latest version.
  • Cleaning
    • Rinse the ring with mild soap and water or use a soft cloth to clean all surfaces of the Evie Ring. Dry thoroughly before wearing.
  • Recharging
    • The ring battery can be recharged as needed. With normal use (continuous wear and exercising once a day), the battery is expected to last five days.
