Intended Use
The Ortivus AB Mobimed™ is a cardiac monitoring system consisting of a portable and stationary unit which communicate with each other using the Mobitex radio-based cellular telecommunications network. The cardiac data includes ECG, SpO2, NIBP, GCS, and patient information. The system is intended for use by trained personnel in emergency care, specifically emergency ambulance and pre-hospital care.
Device Story
Mobimed™ System comprises portable 'Pegasus' units (ambulance-mounted or handheld) and stationary 'Polaris' units (hospital-based). System acquires and telemonitors patient physiological data via Mobitex radio-based cellular network. Inputs include 12-lead ECG, VCG, SpO2, manually entered NIBP, and GCS scores. Pegasus unit displays alarms and data locally; transmits data to Polaris for hospital-side monitoring and review. Enables continuous patient monitoring during transport. Healthcare providers use transmitted data to assess patient status and inform clinical decision-making during pre-hospital care. Benefits include improved remote patient assessment and data continuity from field to hospital.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Testing included electrical safety (IEC-601-1), ECG performance (IEC 601-2.27), SpO2 performance (ISO 9919), power source testing, environmental testing (shock, humidity, vibration, temperature), EMC (CISPR 11, IEC 61000-4-2,3,4,5), and communication link validation.
Technological Characteristics
System consists of portable Pegasus and stationary Polaris units. Connectivity via Mobitex radio-based cellular network. Power via internal rechargeable battery, 12V automotive system, or AC line. SpO2 module is Nellcor MP204P. Data transmission includes ECG, SpO2, NIBP (manual entry), and GCS. No automatic NIBP measurement. Standards: IEC-601-1, IEC 601-2.27, ISO 9919, CISPR 11, IEC 61000-4.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use by trained personnel in emergency ambulance and pre-hospital care settings for cardiac monitoring of patients. Transmits ECG, SpO2, NIBP, GCS, and patient information.
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.

1. Identification of device
Proprietary Name: Mobimed™ System, (Pegasus and Polaris) Common Name: Monitor, Cardiac; Radio-frequency physiological signal transmitter and receiver; Oximeter. Classification Status: Class II per regulations 870.2300 and 870.2910 and 870.2700 Product Codes: 74DRT, 74DRG, and 74DQA
- 2. Equivalent devices
Ortivus believes the Mobimed™ System is substantially equivalent to the LifePak® Cardiac Monitor/LifeNet RS100 Receiving Station manufactured by Physio-Control Corporation (K912189) The SpO2 module is the Nellcor MP204P, same as used in the NPB-75 made by Spegas (K964239)
- 3. Description of the Device
The Mobimed™ System consists of one or several stationary units called Polaris (typically hospital located) receiving patient cardiac information from mobile units called Pegasus. A mobile unit can be permanently mounted in an ambulance or operate as a portable unit. The Mobimed™ equipment can telemonitor (using radiobased cellular telecommunications network) a patient where he or she is at the moment. This makes it possible to monitor the patient and acquire data during transportation to the hospital. The system can acquire and transmit the following information:
- VCG or 12-Lead ECG (automatically and manually acquired reports). ●
- One channel ECG or VCG reports .
- Monitoring ECG (not transmitted)
- . Trends (automatically and manually acquired).
- Patient records/forms

- 4. Intended use
The Ortivus AB Mobimed™ is a cardiac monitoring system consisting of a portable and stationary unit which communicate with each other using the Mobitex radio-based cellular telecommunications network. The cardiac data includes ECG, SpO2, NIBP, GCS, and patient information. The system is intended for use by trained personnel in emergency care, specifically emergency ambulance and pre-hospital care.
- 5. Technological characteristics, comparison to predicate device.
Like the predicate devices, the Mobimed™ System is intended to be used in an emergency care situation to communicate cardiac information from a remote site such as an ambulance to a hospital. Standard ECGs can be transmitted, but in addition, SpO2, NIBP and GCS information can also be transmitted. The NIBP (Non-invasive blood pressure) values are entered manually into the Pegasus. This means that the values must be obtained by some other equipment, for example a standard blood pressure cuff. There is no automatic NIBP measurement equipment. The GCS (Glasgow Coma Scale) is a scoring system for the patient's status. GCS is an internationally well spread scoring system for estimating the degree of consciousness of the patient. The GCS value is based upon the observation of three fundamental physiological parameters; eye movements, motor response, and verbal response. Each parameter gets a numerical value based on standardized questions, and the sum of the three individual values is the GCS.

- 6. Discussion of performance testing.
An extensive collection of tests has been conducted and successfully completed, including electrical safety (to IEC-601-1), ECG performance (using appropriate sections of IEC 601-2.27), SpO2 performance (Using ISO 9919), power source (battery and charger), environmental (shock, humidity, vibration, temperature), EMC (using CISPR 11 and IEC 61000-4-2,3,4, and 5) and communications to and from the hospital based unit.
- 7. Conclusion
Based on extensive performance testing and a comparison to the predicate device, it is the conclusion of Ortivus AB that the Mobimed™ System is substantially equivalent to devices already on the marked (cleared by the 510(k) process) and presents no new concerns about safety and effectiveness. In fact, the use of cellular digital technology enhances communication capability over previous direct radio frequency communications systems.
