Intended Use

The Multi-Link™ X2 ECG Adapter and Direct Connect Lead Wire System are used in telemetry to transmit ECG signals from the electrodes to the transmitters on ambulatory patients within a defined coverage area for monitoring purposes. The Multi-Link Direct Connect Lead Wires are single-patient-use, non-sterile and cannot be reprocessed. The Multi-Link Adapters are reusable, non-sterile and can be reprocessed. The Multi-Link X2 ECG Adapter and Direct Connect Lead Wire System are used with any patient population requiring ambulatory ECG, and are compatible with Philips, Mindray and Nihon Kohden electrocardiograph monitors.

Device Story

Device consists of reusable adapters and disposable single-patient-use lead wires; functions as accessory to host ECG monitoring equipment. Inputs: electrical ECG signals from patient electrodes. Operation: conductive signal wires transmit ECG data from electrodes to telemetry transmitters; metal shielding acts as Faraday cage to reduce environmental noise; thermoplastic insulating jacket provides electrical insulation. Output: transmitted ECG signal for display on compatible Philips, Mindray, or Nihon Kohden monitors. Used in hospital telemetry settings; operated by healthcare professionals. Benefits: enables continuous ambulatory ECG monitoring by providing reliable signal conduction between patient and monitoring system.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. No clinical data. Performance testing included electrical safety (AAMI ANSI ES60601-1), ECG monitoring equipment safety (AAMI ANSI IEC 60601-2-27), and cable/lead wire performance (AAMI ANSI EC53:2013). Biocompatibility testing (ISO 10993-1, -5, -10) confirmed safety for prolonged skin contact.
