State whether the device meets user needs and intended use, with required follow-up actions.
Use objective report language and trace claims to controlled records.
Confirm intended users can apply CP-2 and complete 72-hour ambulatory monitoring.
Validation used CP-2 firmware 1.3.0, label LBL-CP2-010, and IFU IFU-CP2-006.
UN-03 is supported by simulated-use study VAL-CP2-021.
18 participants applied the device without clinician assistance in a simulated home setting.
17 of 18 participants completed application on first attempt.
One observed orientation error requires an IFU image update.
CP-2 meets intended use after completion of the labeling action.
