This device is available for sale only upon the order of a physician or other related licensed medical professional, and not intended for any home use applications ..

Device Story

Central station monitor for centralized display, storage, and recording of patient vital signs and ECG waveforms; receives data from bedside monitors via proprietary spread-spectrum LAN or directly from telemetry transceivers via UHF frequencies. System comprises standard PC base, VGA display, and network communication hardware. Provides alarm detection and reporting for up to 8 patients; stores 24 hours of waveform and parameter data. Operated by medical professionals in clinical/hospital environments. Output viewed on display or printed via thermal/laser printer; supplements bedside alarms to assist clinical decision-making regarding cardiac status.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. The device conforms to national and international product safety standards for electrical, electromagnetic compatibility, and cardiac monitoring. System tests, design reviews, and verification/validation testing were performed to mitigate identified hazards.

Technological Characteristics

System consists of a standard PC base, VGA display, and network hardware (spread-spectrum transponders and UHF telemetry receivers). Operates via proprietary spread-spectrum LAN and UHF telemetry frequencies. Software-based arrhythmia detection and alarm system. Electrical and electromagnetic compatibility standards applied.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients in hospital or clinical settings, particularly intensive care areas, requiring cardiac arrhythmia monitoring during ECG monitoring. Not for home use.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

The arrhythmia detector and alarm device monitors an electrocardiogram and is designed to produce a visible or audible signal or alarm when atrial or ventricular arrhythmia, such as premature contraction or ventricular fibrillation, occurs.

Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Arrhythmia Detector and Alarm” will serve as the special control. See § 870.1 for the availability of this guidance document.

### Product Name:

Centurion™ Central Station with Arrhythmia Patient Monitoring System Proprietary: Arrhythmia Detector and Alarm. Common: Classification: Class III (see 21 CFR - 870.1025).

### Predicate Devices:

The predicate device(s) are the PCI/Vitalcom Inc. Central Station with Arrhythmia Monitor (510(k) numbers K962473 and K925411), the Datascope VISA Central Station with Arrhythmia Monitor(510(k) number K913676), and the Critikon Central Station with Arrhythmia Monitor (510(k) number K933404). These predicate devices have the same performance specifications as the Central Station with Arrhythmia Patient Monitoring System

#### Device Description:

The Centurion™ Central Station with Arrhythmia Monitoring System is a Central Station monitor comprised of a standard VGA display, a standard Personal Computer (PC) base system, and hardware used to install the Network communications system (i.e. spreadspectrum transponders and UHF telemetry receivers).

The Centurion™ Central Station with Arrhythmia Monitoring System can provide the centralized display, storage and recording (or printing) of patient vital sign and waveform data that is being monitored at the Invivo Research Inc. Millennia 3500 Series bedside monitors or spread-spectrum/UHF telemetry receivers.

Data accumulated at the Millennia 3500 Series bedside monitors is sent via a proprietary spread-spectrum LAN (local area network) to the Central Station for display, storage, and/or printing. Data accumulated from any of the Invivo Research Inc. telemetry transceivers is sent directly to the Central Station on standard UHF telemetry frequencies. The Central Station oversees all communications activities, allowing each system component to pass information along without interruption of patient monitoring.

{1}------------------------------------------------

The Central Station with Arrhythmia monitoring provides alarm detection and reporting for all patient parameters that are available to the Central Station, including arrhythmia monitoring for up to 8 patients. The Central Station alarm capability supplements the existing bedside monitor alarm capability (alarms at both locations).

The Central Station can provide storage of patient data for 8 patients for up to 24 hours. This includes waveform and patient parameter data for all available parameter values. The waveform and parameter data that has been stored in a patient file at the Central Station can be retrieved and reviewed on the display or printed out on a thermal array recorder or laser printer.

# Intended Uses:

The Invivo Research Inc. The Centurion™ Central Station Arrhythmia Patient Monitoring is intended for general hospital or clinical use by medical professionals whenever it is required to monitor patients' cardiac arrhythmias during ECG monitoring. The need to monitor these arrhythmias is most commonly encountered in the intensive care areas of the hospital during patient monitoring. This device is available for sale only upon the order of a physician or other related licensed medical professional, and not intended for any home use applications ..

## Technological Comparison to Predicate Device(s):

The Invivo Research Inc. Centurion™ Central Station with Arrhythmia Monitoring System uses the same type of technology (i.e. personal computers and UHF analog or digital spread-spectrum transponders) that are found in the predicate devices listed above, and are enumerated in Attachment 2 of this document.

## Summary of Performance Testing:

The Invivo Research Inc. Centurion™ Central Station with Arrhythmia Monitoring System conforms with national and available international product safety standards for electrical. electromagnetic compatibility, and cardiac monitoring.

Tests demonstrating consideration and mitigation of the identified potential hazards for this device have been developed, and will be complete before release of the device. Conformance to the product development procedures and plans are assured by the application of the system tests, design reviews, and product verification and validation testing performed prior to product release.
