Regulation
21 CFR 870.2300
Device Class
Class 2
Indications for Use
The Unity Network ID is indicated for use in data collection and clinical information management through networks with independent bedside devices. The Unity Network ID is not intended for monitoring purposes, nor is the Unity Network ID intended to control any of the clinical devices (independent bedside devices/ information systems) it is connected to.
Device Story
Unity Network ID acts as a network gateway/interface; acquires digital data from eight serial ports; converts data to Unity Network protocols; transmits data over monitoring network to patient monitors, clinical information systems, or central stations. Used in clinical environments; operated by healthcare staff. Device facilitates data integration from non-GE equipment into GE clinical information systems. Does not perform monitoring or control functions; serves as a communication bridge to support clinical information management.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data provided. System verification and validation included risk analysis, requirements/design reviews, module/integration testing, and performance/safety/environmental testing.
Technological Characteristics
Network gateway/interface; 8 serial ports; converts non-GE digital data to Unity Network protocols; networked connectivity; software-based data conversion.
Indications for Use
Indicated for data collection and clinical information management via networks connected to independent bedside devices. Not for patient monitoring or control of connected clinical devices.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A cardiac monitor (including cardiotachometer and rate alarm) is a device used to measure the heart rate from an analog signal produced by an electrocardiograph, vectorcardiograph, or blood pressure monitor. This device may sound an alarm when the heart rate falls outside preset upper and lower limits.
