AS/3 Light Monitor is intended for stationary and mobile indoor monitoring of a patient’s vital signs.
Device Story
Portable patient monitor; measures ECG, invasive blood pressure, SpO2, temperature, and NIBP. Configurations: LM (ECG, SpO2, 1 temp, NIBP) or LMP (ECG, SpO2, 2 invasive pressures, 2 temps, NIBP). Operates on battery or mains power. Used in clinical settings for continuous vital sign monitoring. Provides real-time physiological data to clinicians to support patient assessment and clinical decision-making.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Device tested against established specifications of the predicate AS/3 Compact Monitor to confirm equivalent performance.
Technological Characteristics
Portable patient monitor; measures ECG, invasive/non-invasive blood pressure, SpO2, and temperature. Powered by battery or mains. Utilizes same measurement techniques and algorithms as predicate AS/3 Compact Monitor.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring stationary or mobile indoor monitoring of vital signs, including ECG, invasive blood pressure, SpO2, temperature, and non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP).
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An electrocardiograph is a device used to process the electrical signal transmitted through two or more electrocardiograph electrodes and to produce a visual display of the electrical signal produced by the heart.

## PRODUCT NAMES
Device name: AS/3™ Light Monitor
Common name: Hemodynamic measurement device
## DESCRIPTION OF THE DEVICE
AS/3 Light Monitor is a portable patient monitor which measures ECG, 2 invasive blood pressures, oxygen saturation SpO₂, 2 temperatures and non-invasive blood pressure NIBP. The measurement technics are similar to the AS/3 Compact Monitor with ESTP module and NIBP module. See section 3 for details.
AS/3 Light Monitor will be available in two following configurations:
- LM which measures ECG, SpO₂, 1 temperature and NIBP
- LMP which measures ECG, SpO₂, 2 invasive blood pressures, 2 temperatures and NIBP.
The monitor can be driven with battery or with mains power.
## INTENDED USE
AS/3 Light Monitor is intended for stationary and mobile indoor monitoring of a patient’s vital signs.
## SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE
In terms of overall functions and parameters measured, the AS/3™ Light Monitor is substantially equivalent in safety and effectiveness to Datex AS/3™ Compact Monitor with ESTP and NIBP modules.
{1}
Measurement parameters are the same as in Datex AS/3™ Compact Monitor with ESTP and NIBP modules. Measurement units are redesigned, but measurement technics and algorithms are the same.
The specifications of the monitors were compared and AS/3™ Light Monitor was tested against the specifications. The results showed that AS/3™ Light Monitor is substantially equivalent with AS/3™ Compact Monitor.
