Intended Use
ENSEMBLE includes the essential features of a central station monitor for up to 12 patients. It can display vital signs information collected from bedside patient monitoring devices such as: ECG/Heart Rate, Arrhythmia (basic and extended alarms), ST Segment, Respiration, Temperature, Invasive Blood Pressure, Noninvasive Blood Pressure, Pulse Oximetry, and End Tidal carbon-dioxide. The ENSEMBLE may be used in system application in many different clinical specialties within the hospital.
Device Story
Ensemble Central Station is a display terminal for up to 12 patients; receives vital sign signals (ECG, BP, SpO2, etc.) from bedside patient monitors via a communication network. Device functions as a remote display and alarm management system; it does not perform primary waveform analysis, instead displaying data transmitted by connected monitors. Operated by clinical staff in hospital settings; provides centralized visualization of patient status, trends, and alarms. Enables clinicians to monitor multiple patients simultaneously, facilitating timely clinical intervention based on displayed vital signs and alarm notifications.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data provided.
Technological Characteristics
Central station display terminal; networked connectivity to bedside patient monitors; supports up to 12 patients. Displays ECG, heart rate, arrhythmia, ST segment, respiration, temperature, invasive/noninvasive blood pressure, pulse oximetry, and end-tidal CO2. Features alarm management (audio/visual, technical INOPS, silence/reset).
Indications for Use
Indicated for hospital patients requiring vital signs monitoring, including ECG, heart rate, arrhythmia, ST segment, respiration, temperature, invasive/noninvasive blood pressure, pulse oximetry, and end-tidal CO2. Used in various clinical specialties.
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.
