It is used to house the module [SAM (Smart Anesthesia Multi-gas) module] and provides an interface to the Eagle display. The module's patient information may be displayed on the Marquette Eagle monitor. This device is intended to be used by personnel trained in the use of the equipment. It is intended to be used within the hospital/facility environment. ## Device Story RAC 2A is a module housing unit designed to add modularity to the Marquette Eagle patient monitor product line. It functions as a physical interface, housing the SAM (Smart Anesthesia Multi-gas) module and connecting it to the Eagle monitor display. Used in hospital/facility environments by trained clinical personnel, the device enables the transmission and visualization of patient data from the SAM module onto the Eagle monitor. It does not perform independent physiological monitoring but serves as a conduit for data integration, allowing clinicians to view anesthesia gas information alongside other patient vitals, thereby facilitating clinical decision-making during patient care. ## Clinical Evidence No clinical data. The submission relies on bench testing, including reliability and software testing, to demonstrate that the device meets its intended use and performs substantially equivalent to predicate devices. ## Technological Characteristics The RAC 2A is a modular housing unit providing a physical and electrical interface between the SAM module and the Eagle monitor. It is a component of the Marquette Eagle configured product line. No specific materials or energy sources are detailed beyond its role as a system interface. Software is present to facilitate data communication between the module and the display. ## Regulatory Identification A carbon dioxide gas analyzer is a device intended to measure the concentration of carbon dioxide in a gas mixture to aid in determining the patient's ventilatory, circulatory, and metabolic status. The device may use techniques such as chemical titration, absorption of infrared radiation, gas chromatography, or mass spectrometry. ## Predicate Devices - Eagle patient monitors ([K960272](/device/K960272.md), [K960418](/device/K960418.md), [K961139](/device/K961139.md)) - Tram-rac ([K900598](/device/K900598.md)) - Tram-rac / SAM module ([K943977](/device/K943977.md), [K950581](/device/K950581.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

Submitter Marquette Medical Systems 8200 West Tower Avenue Milwaukee, WI 53223 USA Establishment Registration Number 2124823 Contact Name / Telephone Number Dianne Schmitz Corporate Regulatory Affairs Marquette Medical Systems Phone: (414) 362-3230 Date: 10 October 97 ### General Information 2. Trade/Proprietary Name Marquette's name for this device is the RAC 2A. # Common/Usual Name This device is commonly known as a module housing. ## Device Classification This device is viewed as a component of a system. The RAC 2A adds modularity to Marquette's Eagle configured product line. It is used to house the module [SAM (Smart Anesthesia Multi-gas) module] and provides an interface to the Eagle display. Therefore, the submitted device may take on the same classification level as the predicate Eagle patient monitor and module. FDA determined the predicate devices to be: Eagle patient monitors have been determined to be Class III devices; the SAM modules have been determined.to be Class II devices. ## Performance Standards Performance standards (Section 514 of the Act) have not yet been established for the device that is the subject of this premarket notification submission. ### Legally Marketed Predicate Device(s) 3. This submission is being filed as a modification to an existing device. It is being filed in support of the position that the proposed modified device, the RAC 2A, which interfaces a module to a Marquette Eagle monitor, is substantially equivalent to devices already in legal commercial distribution: Eagle patient 000006 {1}------------------------------------------------ monitors: K960272, K960418, K961139; Tram-rac: K900598; Tram-rac / SAM module: K943977, K950581. ### Device Description and Intended Use 4. This device is viewed as a component of a system. The RAC 2A adds modularity to Marquette's Eagle configured product line. It is used to house the module [SAM (Smart Anesthesia Multi-gas) module] and provides an interface to the Eagle display. The RAC 2A is intended to allow the module's patient information to be displayed on the Eagle monitor display. ### 5. Test Summary & Conclusion Various reliability and software testing was performed on the product, and the results indicated that the RAC 2A met the requirements of its intended use. Marquette Medical Systems has demonstrated that use of the RAC 2A is as safe and effective, and performs substantially equivalent its predicate devices. {2}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image is a black and white logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
