Device Story
Connexall Suite of Software Products is an on-site messaging integration solution; functions as a secondary, redundant alarm forwarding system. Inputs: patient monitor status and alarm data from clinical systems. Processing: Notification Server manages near-real-time event processing, dispatching, and database management. Outputs: text, alarms, or data forwarded to third-party mobile display devices. Usage: clinical environment; operated by healthcare professionals. Benefit: enables awareness of patient status and alarm conditions when away from the primary monitoring system. Does not alter primary device behavior or replace primary alarm functions.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Verification and validation activities were conducted to establish performance and safety characteristics. Results demonstrated compliance with predetermined specifications.
Technological Characteristics
Client/server application; runs on Microsoft Windows 32-bit operating systems. Core component is the Notification Server (database, system administration, licensing, event processing). Connectivity: interfaces with clinical systems to forward data to third-party mobile devices. Configurations: Enterprise, Pro, Care, and LITE.
Indications for Use
Indicated for healthcare professionals to receive secondary, redundant, near real-time notifications of medical events and alarms from primary patient monitoring systems via third-party mobile display devices.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A cardiac monitor (including cardiotachometer and rate alarm) is a device used to measure the heart rate from an analog signal produced by an electrocardiograph, vectorcardiograph, or blood pressure monitor. This device may sound an alarm when the heart rate falls outside preset upper and lower limits.
