The Philips NM3 monitor is intended for non-invasive monitoring of the inspired Description of Device: and expired airflow and airway pressure of intensive care unit (ICU), anesthesia and emergency room (ER) patients, as well as capnography and pulse oximetry in all of these clinical settings. It is intended to serve the same purposes as the flow, carbon dioxide and pulse oximetry monitoring components of the predicate NICO with MARS monitor.
In the NM3 monitor as in the NCO system, combination CO2 adapter/flow sensors (neonatal, pediatric, adult), combination adult CO2 adapter/flow sensors with a partial rebreathing valve and flow sensors (infant/neonatal, pediatricladult) are connected with a male pneumatic connector to the NICO monitor. Sidestream airway adapters and nasal cannulas are available which are connected with a sample cell connector to a receptacle on the LoFlo Module which can be interfaced to the NM3 monitor. All of these sensors are already legally marketed as accessories of 510(k) cleared Respironics-Novametrix predicate devices. The pulse oximetry sensors are connected to the NM3 monitor via a connector on the front panel of the monitor. All of the pulse oximetry sensors are already legally marketed as accessories of 510(k) cleared Masimo predicate devices.
The principal function of the flow portion of combination sensors and flow sensors is to provide a differential pressure signal related to flow and airway pressure relative to atmospheric pressure. These sensors are often placed in the breathing circuit between the endotracheal tube and the ventilator circuit Y piece and may also be used in conjunction with a face mask or mouthpiece. The flow measurement portion of the NM3 monitor is contained in the Mercury module which consists of a microprocessor-based data acquisition system that measures flow, and pressure and interfaces with a Capnostat 5 CO2 sensor. The CO2 airway adapter portion of the combination sensors, allow the Respironics-Novametrix CO2 mainstream gas sensor, the Capnostat® 5, to attach to it and measure the concentration of CO2 in the airway using infrared technology. When CO2 measurements are combined with airway flow and volume measurements, other parameters such as CO2 production and dead space can be calculated. The Capnostat 5 sensor as a mainstream gas analyzer includes a sample cell positioned in the breathing circuit through which a patient's inspiratory and expiratory gases flow. The LoFlo module, a sidestream type of gas analyzer, samples gases at 50 ml/min from a sampling port in an adapter placed in a breathing circuit or from a nasal or oral cannula. The gas then passes through a sampling tube to the

sample cell, where the gas components are measured. The combination adult CO2 adapter/flow sensors with a partial rebreathing valve with periodic activation of the rebreathing valve allow pulmonary capillary blood flow and cardiac output to be calculated using the differential Fick method.
Intended Use of the Device: The intended use of the Philips NM3 monitor, Model 7900 is to provide:
- cardiac output monitoring via the method of partial rebreathing in adult patients receiving mechanical . ventilation during general anesthesia and in the intensive care unit (ICU).
- spirometric, and carbon dioxide monitoring in neonatal, pediatric and adult patients during general . anesthesia and in the intensive care unit (ICU) and the emergency department (ED). Separate combination CO2/flow sensors are provided for adult, pediatric and neonatal use.
- continuous, non-invasive monitoring of functional arterial oxygen saturation and pulse rate in . neonatal, pediatric and adult patients during both no motion conditions and for patients who are well or poorly perfused during general anesthesia and in the intensive care unit (ICU) and the emergency department (ED).
The NM3 monitor Model 7900 and its sensors are intended to be used by trained operators when spirometric, capnographic, pulse oximetry, or cardiac output monitoring is indicated in the judgement of a physician.
The use of the NM3 monitor Model 7900 for cardiac output monitoring is contraindicated in patients in which a small rise (3-5 mmHg) in their arterial partial pressure of CO2 level cannot be tolerated.
Technological Characteristics The NM3 monitor comprises the cleared Mercury module with the Capnostat 5 sensor for flow and carbon dioxide monitoring, the cleared LoFlo module for carbon dioxide monitoring and the cleared Masimo MX-1 module for pulse oximetry monitoring. It has been designed to include all of the functionality of the flow, carbon dioxide, cardiac output and pulse oximetry monitoring components of predicate NICO with MARS monitor.
The NM3 monitor uses flow sensors that are considered to be a fixed orifice, target flowmeters and as such the pressure drop is proportional to the square of the flow. Combination CO2/flow sensors are available in three flow ranges that are tailored for neonates, pediatric patients and adults.
The NM3 monitor uses an infrared absorption (IR) technique for monitoring CO2. The principle is based on the fact that CQ- molecules absorb infrared light energy of specific wavelengths, with the amount of energy absorbed being directly related to the CO2 concentration Solid state CO2 sensors (such as the Capnostat) use a beam splitter to simultaneously measure the IR light at two wavelengths: one which is absorbed by CO2 and one which is not. The wavelength which is not absorbed by CO2 is related to the intensity of the fR light source. Also, the IR light source is electronically pulsed in order to eliminate effects of changes in electronic components.
The NM3 monitor measures oxygen saturation and pulse rate with sensors that contain red and infrared light sources. Since oxygen saturated blood absorbs different amounts of light at each wavelength (red and infrared) as compared with unsaturated blood, the amount of light absorbed at each wavelength by the blood in each pulse can be used to calculate oxygen saturation. The light energy from red and infrared LEDs is beamed through a sample cell- a pulsating vascular bed, the patient's finger or toe for example. The remaining light energy not absorbed by the sample cell reaches a photodiode, on the opposing side of the sensor. The signal received by the photodiode is split into its red and infrared components, sampled, software filtered and displayed as a numerical value for oxygen saturation and as a waveform, the plethysmogram.
A variation on the traditional rebreathing methods, the non-invasive differential Fick partial re-breathing technique is used in the NM3 monitor. The change in VCO2 and the change in end-tidal CO2 in response to a change in ventilation is used to determine pulmonary capillary blood flow. This value is then corrected for the effect of shunt to determine cardiac output.
