Intended Use
The ViSi Mobile Monitoring System is intended for use by clinicians and medically qualified personnel for single or multi-parameter vital signs monitoring of adult patients (18 years or older). It is indicated for ECG (3 or 5 lead-wire), respiration rate (RESP), heart rate (HR), noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP), continuous noninvasive blood pressure (cNIBP), noninvasive monitoring of functional oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin (SpO2), pulse rate (PR), and skin temperature (TEMP) in hospital-based facilities; including, general medical-surgical floors, intermediate care floors, and emergency departments. The ViSi Mobile Monitoring System may be used as standalone devices or networked to ViSi Mobile Remote Viewers through wireless 802.11 communication.
Device Story
Body-worn vital signs monitor; measures ECG, HR, SpO2, NIBP, cNIBP, respiration, and temperature. Features high-resolution touch screen; provides visual/audible alarms. System includes posture tracking (standing, sitting, reclined, supine, walking) and fall/immobility detection. Used in hospital settings by clinicians; data transmitted via 802.11 wireless to remote viewers/central stations. Output informs clinical decision-making regarding patient status and safety. Benefits include continuous monitoring and automated alerts for undesirable postures or falls.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only. Verification and validation included code reviews, static testing, unit testing, and specific software verification/validation protocols for posture, immobility, and fall detection algorithms (SVT-000061, SVT-000062, TP-670, TP-671, TP-672, TP-673). All acceptance criteria were met.
Technological Characteristics
Body-worn monitor with touch screen display. Connectivity via 802.11 wireless. Parameters: ECG (3/5 lead), SpO2, NIBP/cNIBP, respiration, temperature. Software-based posture tracking and alarm management. No changes to core materials or energy source from predicate.
Indications for Use
Indicated for adult patients (≥18 years) in hospital settings (general medical-surgical, intermediate care, emergency departments) requiring monitoring of ECG, respiration rate, heart rate, NIBP, cNIBP, SpO2, pulse rate, and skin temperature.
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.

# Substantial Equivalence Table
{5}------------------------------------------------
# Summary of substantial equivalence
The device design, technology, materials, processes, etc. have not been changed with this application. The modifications were to add the following posture alarm features: (1) undesirable posture technical alarm, (2) patient immobility technical alarm, and (3) patient fall alarm. (4) The last modification allows the system to display if the patient is walking along with the already existing ability to display if a patient is upright, reclined or lying-down. This modification is purely a visual icon and has no associated alarms. All four modifications were implemented to provide clinicians with information that will increase patient safety.
Non-clinical performance (verification and validation) testing of the aforementioned features was completed to confirm that the features, as implemented, met all requirements. Verification testing included code reviews, static testing and algorithm monitoring to ensure it performed as intended. Design validation testing consisted of the following tests:
- Code Reviews, Static Testing, Unit Testing
- SVT-000061 - Walking Algorithm Software Verification
- SVT-000062 Undesirable Posture, Immobility and Fall Detection . Software verification
- TP-670 – Undesirable Posture Alarms Validation
- TP-671 Immobility Alarms Validation ●
- TP-672 Patient Fall Alarm Validation ●
- . TP-673 - Posture Definitions and Walking Validation
The results demonstrated that all acceptance criteria were met, and therefore conforms to expected device performance and intended use.
Therefore the ViSi Mobile Monitoring System is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as or better than the legally marketed predicate device.
