The Nellcor™ Bedside SpO2 Patient Monitoring System is intended for prescription use only with neonatal, pediatric, and adult patients, and for patients who are well or poorly perfused, in hospitals, hospital-type facilities, and intra-hospital transport. Note: · Hospital use typically covers such areas as general care floors (GCFs), operating rooms, special procedure areas, intensive and critical care areas within the hospital, and in hospitaltype facilities. · Hospital-type facilities include physician office-based facilities, sleep labs, skilled nursing facilities, surgicenters, and sub-acute centers. · Intra-hospital transport includes transport of a patient within the hospital or hospital- type facility. ## Device Story System provides continuous, noninvasive monitoring of functional arterial hemoglobin oxygen saturation (SpO2) and pulse rate; utilizes NELL 1SR PCBA oximetry board; employs OxiMax SpO2 technology and software algorithm; compatible with existing Nellcor SpO2 sensors. Used in hospitals, hospital-type facilities (e.g., sleep labs, skilled nursing), and during intra-hospital transport. Operated by healthcare professionals. Output displayed for clinician review to support patient assessment and clinical decision-making. Benefits include real-time physiological monitoring for patient safety. ## Clinical Evidence No new clinical data; clinical performance is established as equivalent to the predicate device (N-600x) based on identical technology and intended use. Bench testing performed per system V&V summary (#MDR-YW110610-01). ## Technological Characteristics Consists of NELL 1SR PCBA oximetry board; utilizes OxiMax SpO2 technology; pulse rate measurement range 20-250 BPM; compatible with existing Nellcor SpO2 sensors; software-based signal processing. ## Regulatory Identification An oximeter is a device used to transmit radiation at a known wavelength(s) through blood and to measure the blood oxygen saturation based on the amount of reflected or scattered radiation. It may be used alone or in conjunction with a fiberoptic oximeter catheter. ## Predicate Devices - Covidien Oximeter, Model Nellcor OxiMax N-600x Pulse Oximeter with SPD ([K083325](/device/K083325.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

Ware, Sr. Regulatory Affairs Specialist Date Summary Prepared: January 10, 2012 ## Device Name Nellcor™ Bedside SpO2 Patient Monitoring System Trade Name: Common Name: Oximeter Classification Name: Oximeter (21 CFR 870,2700) Classification: Class II Product Code: DQA ## Predicate Devices (Legally Marketed Devices) The predicate device for the Nellcor™ Bedside SpO2 Patient Monitoring System is: - Covidien Oximeter, Model Nellcor OxiMax N-600x Pulse Oximeter with SPD cleared by FDA through 510(k) No. K083325 ## Device Description The Nelloor™ Bedside SpO2 Patient Monitoring System provides continuous, noninvasive monitoring of functional oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin (SpO2) and pulse rate. ### Intended Use The Nellcor™ Bedside SpO2 Patient Monitoring System is indicated for the continuous noninvasive monitoring of functional oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin (SpO2) and pulse rate. The Nellcor™ Bedside SpO2 Patient Monitoring System is intended for prescription use only with neonatal, pediatric, and adult patients, and for patients who are well or poorly perfused, in hospitals, hospital-type facilities, and intra-hospital transport. #### Note: - · Hospital use typically covers such areas as general care floors (GCFs), operating rooms, special procedure areas, intensive and critical care areas within the hospital, and in hospitaltype facilities. - · Hospital-type facilities include physician office-based facilities, sleep labs, skilled nursing facilities, surgicenters, and sub-acute centers. - · Intra-hospital transport includes transport of a patient within the hospital or hospital- type facility. ## Summary of Technical Characteristics of the Device Compared to the Predicate Devices (Legally Marketed Devices) The Nellcor Bedside SpO2 Patient Monitoring System is substantially equivalent to the Covidien, Nellcor OxiMax N-600x Pulse Oximeter with SPD. The clinical performance of the Nellcor Bedside SpO2 Patient Monitoring System when used with adult, pediatric and neonatal patients is equivalent to the Nelloor Puritan {1}------------------------------------------------ Bennett, model OxiMax N-600X Pulse Oximeter with. The Nellcor™ Bedside SpO Patient Monitoring System consists of the NELL 1SR PCBA (oximetry board) for its performance of Pulse Oximetry and uses the same Oximax SpO2 technology and software algorithm as the predicate device, N-600X. It is intended to be used with the same Nellcor SpO2 sensors that are commercially available and used with the predicate device. Because there are no changes to the performance, technology, and intended use of the device, the clinical data submitted as part of the premarket notifications for the predicate device (N-600X) also applies to the Nellcor Bedside SpO2 Patient Monitoring System. The pulse rate derived from the pulse oximetry (SpO2) channel of the Covidien LLC. model Nelloor Bedsige SpO2 Patient Monitoring System has the extended measurement range of 20 to 250BPM, same as the Nellcor model OxiMax N-600X Pulse Oximeter with SPD. # Summary of Performance Testing The Nellcor Bedside SpO2 Patient Monitoring System has been tested in accordance with the system V & V summary (#MDR-YW110610-01) included with the submission using production equivalent units prior to release to market. A summary matrix of the V&V testing is included in section 17 of this submission. A risk analysis identifying potential hazards and documenting mitigation of the hazards has been developed and applied as part of Mediana design control procedure. Mediana's quality system confirms to 21CFR820, ISO 9001, ISO13485 and CMDCAS ISO 13485 certified by DNV (Det Norske Veritas) and QMI (Quality Measuring Instrument). # Conclusions As stated above, the Nellcor Bedside SpO2 Patient Monitoring System is safe and effective, complies with the appropriate medical device guidance and standards and is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
