Description of intervention(s) / exposure

The Device (Biobeat BB-613P) is a non-re-usable chest biosensor (TGA approved) has a similar range of physiological parameters measured and transmitted. This is a Photo Plethysmogram (PPG) based device: the 3cm x 3cm sensor is placed on the patient’s chest (left second intercostal space) using an adhesive patch that is 5cmx5cm and will last approximately 5 days depending on the frequency of data transmission.

In the Cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) setting (setting 1) the device will be placed on the patient just prior to the start of the test by the Study investigator or delegate. The device and adhesive will be removed after the test is completed, on the same day, by the study investigator or delegate. The CPET test involves exercising on a ergometer bike for a duration of approximately 10 minutes. During this time, recordings will be taken of blood pressure. The CPET is part of routine clinical care prior to underdoing major surgery.

In the Intraoperative and immediate post operative setting (setting 2), the device will be placed on the patient just prior to the delivery of anaesthesia. It will be placed by the Study investigator or delegate. Anaesthesia will then be induced, and the operation performed as per routine. After the operation, the patient will be moved to the recovery unit. After recovery from anaesthesia is complete, the patient will be transferred to the ward. The device will be removed after 24 hours from when the patient left the recovery unit by the study investigator or delegate.
Intervention code [1] 326777 0
Diagnosis / Prognosis
Comparator / control treatment
Gold-standard medical grade patient monitoring systems with respect to Blood Pressure (Draeger Infinity M540). This is a standalone monitor that uses oscillometry for blood pressure measurement via a blood pressure cuff on the upper arm. This is part of standard care as blood pressure measurements will be routinely required in both setting 1 and 2.
This will be used simultaneously on the same patient as the test device.
Monitoring will be performed for the duration of the CPET test in Setting 1 and for the duration of the anaesthesia, operation, recovery (and ward up to 24 hours after leaving the recovery unit) in Setting 2.

Statistical methods / analysis
The detailed statistical methodology is outlined in IEEE Standard 1708a™-2019 . To analyse the data, mean absolute difference (MAD) and mean absolute percentage difference (MAPD) will be computed in addition to 95% confidence intervals around the MAD/MAPD.
After testing the device on 20 subjects in each setting, the differences between the readings from the test device and the reference measurements should be within 7 mmHg for both systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) for the 3 levels of testing (static test, test with BP change from calibration point, and test after a period of time from calibration).
The accuracy of the device is then determined based on the mean absolute difference (MAD) between the readings from the test device and the reference measurements for both SBP and DBP. The accuracy is graded based on a table, where a Grade A device has an MAD of 5 mmHg, Grade B for MAD of 5-6 mmHg, Grade C for MAD of 6-7 mmHg, and Grade D for MAD of 7 mmHg.
Since the accuracy of the device can vary at different blood pressure levels, a mean arterial pressure difference (MAPD) is used instead of a constant accuracy limit. This means that the relative difference between the readings from the device and the reference measurement is used instead of the absolute difference. The report should also include the mean difference (MD), standard deviation (SD), and critical difference (CP) values to ensure that the accuracy is interpreted correctly across different evaluation systems.
Precision will be calculated by dividing the number of values with MAD less than 7mmHg with the total number of values.
If the device does not meet this requirement, then a decision to fail the device can be made at this point and the study repeated if an easily rectifiable cause for failure can be identified.

Accuracy at different BP change levels: MAD at different BP change levels should be within 7 mmHg for SBP and DBP analysed separately. Precision will be calculated by dividing the number of values with MAD less than 7mmHg with the total number of values.


Accuracy after a certain period of time from calibration: The accuracy should be consistent with the pass/fail criteria specified in the IEEE standard.

Accuracy at different BP levels: Except Stage 2 hypertension, MAD at different BP classification categories determined by subjects’ entry BP should be within 6 mmHg for SBP and DBP measurement analysed separately.

Categorical variables will be summarised using frequency and percentage. Continuous variables will be summarised using mean and standard deviation (SD) or median and interquartile range (IQR) as appropriate. The 95% limits of agreement between BP from the App via the individual sensors and standard monitors will be analyzed using a Bland-Altman plot. To account for several paired measurements for each participant, the analysis will be adjusted to repeated observations derived from the same participants, using the appropriate bounds.

The bias (mean difference), standard deviation (SD), 95% LOA, and plot will be derived using SPSS for Windows (version 23 – IBM). Paired BP data from each participant will be matched based on time stamps as logged by the recording software.
Since the sensors record on a regular interval it will be matched to the corresponding physiological signals from the hospital’s wired monitors.
To account for several paired measurements for each participant, the analysis will be adjusted to account for repeated observations derived from the same participants.
