What is an ECG?
How ScanWatch 2 obtains an ECG: – ECG, or electrocardiogram, is the graphical
representation of the electrical activity of the heart. It can detect certain
cardiovascular pathologies.
– With each heartbeat, an electrical wave travels through your heart. This
wave causes your heart to contract and pump blood.
– In a doctor’s office, a standard 12-lead ECG is usually taken. This 12-lead
ECG records electrical signals from different angles in the heart to produce
twelve different waveforms. ScanWatch 2 measures a waveform similar to one of
those twelve waveforms. This configuration is known as single-lead ECG.
– A single-lead ECG is able to provide information about heart rate and heart
rhythm and enables classification of Atrial Fibrillation (AFib). However, a
single-lead ECG cannot be used to identify some other conditions, like heart
attacks. Single-lead ECGs are often prescribed by doctors for people to wear
at home or within the hospital so that the doctor can get a better look at the
underlying rate and rhythm of the heart.
Taking an ECG
How to take an ECG recording: – Make sure your ScanWatch 2 is snug on the
wrist that you selected in the companion app to be your measurement wrist. You
can modify your measurement wrist in the companion app, in Devices > ScanWatch
More Settings > Device Orientation.
– Rest your arms on a table, and hold the top electrode with your other hand (as shown in Fig. 1).
You do not need to press the bezel during the session.
Fig. 1 – How to place the second hand to get an ECG measurement
– Activate the ECG measure using the watch interface: press the button, then search for the ECG menu screen on the watch. Launch the measurement by pressing the button one more time. You cannot start an ECG from the Withings app.
– If the feature has been activated, the measurement starts, otherwise the screen displays an invitation to activate the feature.
– The recording starts after the first vibration.
– The recording lasts for 30 seconds.
– Wait for the measurement to end. A countdown indicates the remaining time.
– The end of the measurement is confirmed by a double vibration.
– For users located in the U.S., the first ECG recording will be reviewed by a healthcare professional. It should take less than 24 hours. Once completed, the feature will be unlocked, and the classification of the Atrial Fibrillation detection algorithm will be displayed in the app.
ECG classification:
After an ECG recording, you will be able to see one of the following classifications for the recording:
– Normal Sinus Rhythm: A sinus rhythm means your heart is beating in a uniform pattern.
– Atrial Fibrillation: Atrial Fibrillation occurs when the two upper chambers of the heart move randomly instead of pumping regularly. This does not allow for complete emptying of the chambers and thus, blood may become stagnant and create blood clots. You should contact your physician.
– Inconclusive: An `Inconclusive’ result means that the device could not classify your ECG recording as normal Sinus Rhythm, Atrial Fibrillation or Noise. There could be many reasons for this. One reason is the presence of interference due to movements of the arm, wrist or fingers. Another reason can simply be that the heart rate exceeds 100 bpm or is below 50 bpm. It can also be explained by the presence of an arrhythmia other than atrial fibrillation or a bundle branch block.
– Noise: There is too much interference for the recording to be classified. Place your arm on a table or on your thigh, relax, don’t talk, and don’t move during the recording. After the ECG recording you will also see your median heart rate, derived from the ECG and your ECG filtered trace.
Possible outputs on the device screen:
| Fig. 2.1 Normal result on the device
---|---
| Fig. 2.2 Atrial fibrillation result on the device
| Fig. 2.3 Inconclusive result on the device
| Fig. 2.4 Median heart rate
– The distinction between the four inconclusive classification types can be
found in the Withings app, as described below.
– The classification of the ECG recording is for informational use only. It is
meant to supplement, but not replace, traditional diagnosis methods. If you
are experiencing any symptoms or have concerns, contact your physician. If you
believe you are experiencing a medical emergency, contact emergency services.
– The heart rate output is the median value of the beat-by-beat heart rates
over the 30 seconds of the recording.

Safety and Performance
Scan Monitor software’s ability to accurately classify an ECG recording into
Atrial Fibrillation and normal sinus rhythm categories was tested according to
the IEC 60601-2-47 standard and a clinical study with 262 subjects. On five
public databases, the Scan Monitor demonstrated 99.06% sensitivity in
classifying Atrial Fibrillation and 98.66% specificity in classifying normal
sinus rhythm in classifiable recordings. In the beat-to-beat detection of QRS
complexes, Scan Monitor reached a F1-score of at least 99.19% on all the
datasets, with the exception of NSTDB where the F1-score was 90.65% because of
digitally added noise.
Rhythm classification by Scan Monitor was compared to ECG recordings reviewed
by cardiologists in a clinical validation study with 262 patients. 19.5% of
recordings were inconclusive. On conclusive recordings, the sensitivity in
classifying Atrial Fibrillation was 96.3% (lower bound of the 95% confidence
interval: 89.4%) and the specificity in detecting normal sinus rhythm was
100.0% (lower bound of the 95% confidence interval: 96.7%).
These results reflect use in a controlled environment. Real-world use of Scan
Monitor may result in a greater number of strips being deemed inconclusive.
