The HomMed Model Sentry monitor is a portable noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP) monitor for spot checking of a patient's systolic, diastolic, and mean arterial (MAP) blood pressures, pulse rate using an oximeter and oral temperature via an electronic thermometer. The device will provide fast, reliable NIBP measurements on patients ranging from children (pediatrics) to adults when using the appropriate blood pressure cuff provided. The oximetry works with Model Sentry oximetry probes provided by HomMed, providing Sp02 and pulse rate on all patients from pediatric to adult. The electronic thermometry requires use of the Welch Allyn oral thermometry probe and probe covers. It will provide oral temperature information only. The device is intended for use in clinical environments by health care professionals and in home use by patients as prescribed by or on orders by a physician.
Device Story
HomMed Model Sentry is a portable tabletop patient monitor for spot-check measurements; inputs include NIBP cuff, SpO2 sensor, and oral temperature probe. Device processes physiological signals to display systolic, diastolic, and mean arterial pressure, pulse rate, pulse strength, and temperature on an LED display. Used in clinical settings by healthcare professionals or in home environments by patients; output allows healthcare providers to monitor patient status. Device is a re-branded BCI Mini-Torr Plus (K983796) with specific features enabled or disabled via software toggles. Benefits include reliable, noninvasive patient monitoring across pediatric and adult populations.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. The device utilizes the technology of the BCI 6004, which has previously met FDA requirements for respiratory devices, EMC, electrical safety, mechanical durability, and thermometry. No new clinical data was generated.
Technological Characteristics
Tabletop NIBP monitor with SpO2 and electronic thermometry interfaces. Features LED display, NIBP cuff hose connection, and probe holders. Connectivity includes proprietary sensor interfaces. Software-controlled feature toggles. Compliant with FDA reviewer's guides for respiratory devices, EMC, and electrical/mechanical safety.
Indications for Use
Indicated for spot checking systolic, diastolic, and mean arterial blood pressure, pulse rate, SpO2, and oral temperature in pediatric and adult patients. Intended for clinical and home use under physician prescription.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A noninvasive blood pressure measurement system is a device that provides a signal from which systolic, diastolic, mean, or any combination of the three pressures can be derived through the use of tranducers placed on the surface of the body.

#### Intended Use:
The HomMed Model Sentry monitor is a portable noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP) monitor for spot checking of a patient's systolic, diastolic, and mean arterial (MAP) blood pressures, pulse rate using an oximeter and oral temperature via an electronic thermometer. The device will provide fast, reliable NIBP measurements on patients ranging from children (pediatrics) to adults when using the appropriate blood pressure cuff provided. The oximetry works with Model Sentry oximetry probes provided by HomMed, providing Sp02 and pulse rate on all patients from pediatric to adult. The electronic thermometry requires use of the Welch Allyn oral thermometry probe and probe covers. It will provide oral temperature information only. The device is intended for use in clinical environments by health care professionals and in home use by patients as prescribed by or on orders by a physician.
### Performance Data:
The HomMed Model Sentry utilizes the technology in the BCI 6004 monitor and performs within the environments for which Sentry is marketed. BCI has performed in accordance with the guidelines and standards found in the FDA reviewer's guides for respiratory devices and electronic EMC, electrical, mechanical durability, safety (operator and patient), and thermometers. temperature/humidity testing has been completed. The results demonstrated that the Sentry was in compliance with the guidelines and standards referenced in the FDA reviewer's guides and that it performed within its specifications and functional requirements.
Since the HomMed Model Sentry is the BC1 6004, which has met and continues to meet the applicable FDA requirements, it was not necessary to do additional performance testing. The performance of the Sentry and the BCI Model 6004 remains unchanged.
The HomMed Model Sentry performance is the BCI 6004 performance and no additional or different testing has been done on the HomMed Model Sentry patient monitor. Thus it is the HomMed position that the Sentry performs as well as the legally marketed predicate device, BCI Model 6004.
This summary of 510(k) safety and effectiveness information is being submitted in accordance with the requirements of FDA regarding patient monitors.
