### 510(k) Summary For Analogic Corporation C3 Patient Monitor
DATE THIS SUMMARY WAS PREPARED: March 3, 2003 SUBMITTER'S NAME AND ADDRESS:
> Analogic Corporation 8 Centennial Drive Peabody, MA 01960
#### CONTACT PERSON:
Marvin Rosenbaum, Regulatory Affairs Manager Telephone (978) 977-3000 extension 3049 Facsimile (978) 977-6808
DEVICE NAME:
Proprietary or Trade Name: C3 Patient Monitor Common Name: Multi-Function Patient Monitor Classification Name: Physiological Patient Monitoring System and Accessories
#### PREDICATE DEVICE:
The legally marketed devices to which equivalence is being claimed is:
The NPB-4000 Patient Monitor that was cleared under Premarket Notification K962424.
{1}------------------------------------------------
#### DEVICE DESCRIPTION:
The C3 Patient Monitor is a compact, lightweight monitor for measuring, processing, storing, and displaying information derived from five physiological measurements:
- Electrocardiogram (ECG). A three lead ECG is acquired and a waveform ● can be displayed real-time on the LCD screen or permanently recorded on the optical strip chart recorder. The design of the ECG function is derived directly from the predicate device, the NPB-4000.
- Pulse Oximetry (SpO2). Functional Oxygen Saturation is calculated from the ratio of light transmissivity through the capillary bed at two wavelengths. The SpO2 subsystem uses a similar printed wiring board, software and firmware that is used in the predicate device, the NPB-4000.
- The temperature is measured using thermistor probes for continuous temperature measurements.
- Blood pressure is measured non-invasively (NIBP) by the oscillometric ● method. The design of the NIBP subsystem is an enhanced version of the NIBP subsystem used in the predicate device, the NPB-4000.
- End-tidal CO2. This method pulls a constant sample flow of exhaled breath ● from the patient, and analyzes it with a remote CO2 sensor built into the measurement system.
- An optional thermal printer records waveforms, digital vital signs, and . tabular trends on a 50-mm wide strip chart.
The C3 monitor is powered by internal sealed lead-acid batteries. A fully charged battery will power the monitor for four hours.
#### INTENDED USE:
The purpose and function of the C3 patient monitor continuous ECG, heart rate, non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP), functional arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2), respiration rate, temperature and carbon dioxide (CO2) for single patient use on adult and pediatric patients in hospital-type facilities, such as clinics, clinics. Clinical users may use the monitor during hospital transport.

#### COMPARISION OF TECHNOLIGICAL CHARACTERISTICS:
The design of the C3 Patient Monitor is derived from the design of the NPB-4000 Patient Monitor
The C3 monitor is smaller and lighter than the predicate.
## NONCLINICAL TEST USED IN DETERMINATION OF SUBSTANIAL EQUIVALENCE:
The design of the C3 Patient Monitor has been thoroughly validated at the unit and system level and meets all element of its Requirements Specification. This included the following non-clinical tests:
- IEC 60601-1, an FDA recognized consensus standard for safety of medical . electrical equipment.
- Electromagnetic Emissions Tests to determine if it was in compliance with . the EN 55011, Group 1, and Class B emissions limits.
- IEC 60601-1-2, an FDA recognized consensus standard for . electromagnetic compatibility.
- . Line Dropout and Variation Susceptibility were tested according to the FDA Reviewer Guidance for PreMarket Notification Submissions, November 1993 (Anesthesiology and Respiratory Devices Branch).
- Battery Cycle Testing .
- Operational Temperature Test ●
- Altitude Tests ●
- Alarm Volume Tests ●
- Cleanability Tests
- Mechanical Shock and Vibration Tests ●
- Shipping Container Transportation Test .
- Measure of External Temperature Rise .

Dear Mr. Rosenbaum:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act
