## Indications for Use

The MBSS charging station is used to charge NiCd or SLA batteries of the Lifepak®, Fastpak® and Fastpak 2® series manufactured by Medtronic -Physio Control.

## Device Story

Mobile Battery Service Station (MBSS) is a charging unit for NiCd or SLA batteries used in Medtronic-Physio Control defibrillators. Device operates independently of the defibrillator; batteries are removed from the defibrillator and inserted into MBSS charging bays. Available as table-top or wall-mount unit; powered by 120V mains or 12V automotive supply. MBSS performs battery recognition, impedance monitoring, and charging. Used in clinical settings or rescue vehicles by medical personnel. Output consists of charged batteries for use in life-support equipment. Benefits include ensuring availability of functional power sources for defibrillation units.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Testing evaluated product specifications including battery recognition, charge times, impedance, electrical safety, and electromagnetic interference. All test results met specifications.

## Technological Characteristics

Battery charging station for NiCd/SLA batteries. Dimensions: 30cm x 20cm x 10cm. Power: 120V AC or 12V DC. Standards: EN60601-1 (electrical safety), EN60601-1-2 (EMC), UL 60950. Materials are standard and previously cleared. No software or algorithm details provided.

## Regulatory Identification

An automated external defibrillator (AED) system consists of an AED and those accessories necessary for the AED to detect and interpret an electrocardiogram and deliver an electrical shock (e.g., battery, pad electrode, adapter, and hardware key for pediatric use). An AED system analyzes the patient's electrocardiogram, interprets the cardiac rhythm, and automatically delivers an electrical shock (fully automated AED), or advises the user to deliver the shock (semi-automated or shock advisory AED) to treat ventricular fibrillation or pulseless ventricular tachycardia.

#### Intended Use

The MBSS charging station is used to charge NiCd or SLA batteries of the Lifepak®, Fastpak® and Fastpak 2® series manufactured by Medtronic -Physio Control.

#### Predicate Devices

Lifepak 12 with Battery Charger -- Medtronic-Physio Control K973486 Lifepak 12 with Battery Charger - Medtronic-Physio Control K990338

#### Device Description

The MBSS overall dimensions are 30 cm x 20 cm x 10 cm. It is available either as a table top model or wall mount unit. The table top model has a standard power cord which plugs into a 110 volt wall outlet and non-slip rubberized feet. The wall mount model has a bracket for mounting the charger on a vertical surface. For mounting and use in an automobile (ambulance or rescue vehicle), the wall mount bracket is used. Power 

{1}------------------------------------------------

requirements are either standard mains at 120 volts or standard automotive 12 volts.

The charger is only used for charging specific batteries. The batteries are removed from the defibrillator and inserted into the MBSS charging bays. The MBSS is not attached to the defibrillator during operation.

#### Materials

All materials used in the manufacture of the MBSS battery charger are suitable for this use and have been used in numerous previously cleared products.

### Testing

The MBSS is designed to comply with the electrical safety (EN60601-1), electromagnetic compatibility (EN60601-1-2) and UL 60950 standards. The MBSS meets all electrical and EMC requirements.

Testing was conducted to evaluate conformance to the product specification. Testing included:

- Operation of the charger .
- Battery recognition .
- Charge times .
- Appropriate displays .
- Impedance .
- Electrical safety
- Electromagnetic interference ●

In all cases, the product test results met specification

Re: K030898 Mobile Battery Service Station-Model MBSS Regulation Number: 870.1025 Regulation Name: Arrhythmia Detector and Alarm Regulatory Class: Class III Product Code: MKJ Dated: August 4, 2003 Received: August 6, 2003

Dear Mr. Tootchen:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and 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) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). 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 registration, 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 (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898.
