## Indications for Use

Use of the MultiView WorkStation Infinity Telemetry System is indicated for adult and pediatric patient populations in an environment where patient care is provided by Healthcare Professionals (Physicians, Nurses, Technicians) when the professional determines that a device is required to measure and produce visual and audible alarms for any one or more of the following parameters: - Heart rate ● - ECG Arrhythmia Analysis . - Arterial oxygen saturation . - . Pulse rate - ST segment analysis . The device is intended to be used in the environment where patient care is provided by Healthcare Professionals, i.e. Physicians, Nurses, and Technicians, who will determine when use of the device is indicated, based upon their professional assessment of the patient's medical condition.

## Device Story

The Siemens MultiView WorkStation Infinity Telemetry System is a cardiac monitoring platform used in clinical environments by physicians, nurses, and technicians. It receives physiological signals—specifically ECG, pulse rate, and arterial oxygen saturation—from patients. The system processes these inputs to provide real-time monitoring, arrhythmia detection, and ST segment analysis. It generates visual and audible alarms to alert healthcare providers to changes in patient status. The device modification enables specific arrhythmia calls: Pause, Bradycardia, and Tachycardia. Clinicians use the output to assess patient condition and make clinical decisions. The system is not MRI compatible.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; bench testing only.

## Technological Characteristics

Cardiac monitoring system for ECG, pulse rate, SpO2, and ST segment analysis. Features arrhythmia detection and alarm functionality. Not MRI compatible. Software-based signal processing for physiological parameters.

## Regulatory 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.

## Predicate Devices

Dear Mr. Simard:

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 (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 reqistration, 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 requlations 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 regulation (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 regulation may result in requlatory 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.
