Intended Use
The Quantitative Sentinel (QS) System's is intended for automatic patient data management. It does this by: (a) providing the user the ability to create and use electronic forms for entering, viewing and storing patient and facility related data (e.g. charts, forms, graphs, chalkboards, care plans, user reference manual). (b) interfacing with other hospital information systems and medical devices for automatic data acquisition, viewing and storage with the electronic patient record. (c) providing visual notification of when acquired fetal monitor heart rate values exceed the user defined limits for high and low fetal heart rate and poor signal quality. (d) providing Spectra Alerts capabilities for fetal monitoring (surveillance). (e) providing automatic computations of physiologic indexes (e.g. nutrition). (f) providing calculations from user defined formulas (i.e. index calculator). (g) providing the ability to record, with the patient record, fluid input and oulput information that is defined by the user. (h) providing the ability to export patient data to relational databases for research and Quality Assurance purposes. (i) providing the ability to archive files to a secondary or tertiary storage medium (i.e. optical disk). (j) providing the ability to print (locally or remotely) patient records and QS database definition (e.g. item names) (k) providing the ability to review fetal monitor data (OB-Link) remotely over the internet.
Device Story
Software-based clinical information system (CIS) for hospital/clinical environments; manages manually or automatically acquired patient data. Inputs: data from hospital information systems (HIS) and physiologic monitors (e.g., fetal heart rate). Transforms inputs into integrated electronic medical records; performs automatic computations of physiologic indexes (e.g., nutrition) and user-defined formulas. Outputs: visual alerts for fetal heart rate/signal quality, electronic charts, graphs, and care plans. Accessed by clinicians via local network or remote web-browser. Facilitates decision support and research/QA via database export. Benefits: provides organized, ready access to patient data, replacing paper records; enables remote fetal monitoring surveillance.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data was necessary to demonstrate conformity to performance requirements.
Technological Characteristics
Software application operating on off-the-shelf hardware/computers. Connectivity via Ethernet, Token Ring, or IBM Wireless LAN. Supports remote access via web-browser. Features include automated data acquisition, physiologic index computation, and alert generation. No specific materials or sterilization methods applicable as it is a software-only system.
Indications for Use
Indicated for automatic patient data management in hospital/clinical environments. Supports fetal monitoring surveillance and physiologic data management for patients requiring clinical information system integration.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A perinatal monitoring system is a device used to show graphically the relationship between maternal labor and the fetal heart rate by means of combining and coordinating uterine contraction and fetal heart monitors with appropriate displays of the well-being of the fetus during pregnancy, labor, and delivery. This generic type of device may include any of the devices subject to §§ 884.2600, 884.2640, 884.2660, 884.2675, 884.2700, and 884.2720.

## [807.92(a)4 & 807.92(a)5] Device Description & Intended Use
The Quantitative Sentinel (QS) System is a software application that is intended for use as clinical data management system (also referred to as a clinical information system - CIS). The primary function of the system is the management of clinical data (whether manually or automatically acquired) for the purpose of providing integrated, ready and organized access to patient and/or clinical data that would normally be provided on paper records and/or separate clinical systems/devices. The QS System serves as a decision support tool as well as an electronic medical record. The QS System operates on off-the-shelf software and hardware. The device is intended for use in a hospital/clinical environment.

Dear Ms. Fouts:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General requlation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP reqult in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compiiance at (301) 594-4613. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639.
