## Indications for Use

The Pump Connectivity Interface is a computerized wireless patient information and medication management tool that is integrated into an existing hospital network infrastructure and allows communications with external devices, including personal computers (PCs), Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs), hospital monitoring systems and Hospital Information Management Systems (HIMS). Communication of data includes infusion parameters, system configuration, history, events, trending, alarms and status. It is intended for use in professional healthcare environments that use electronic, external infusion devices. The Pump Connectivity Interface is intended to provide trained healthcare practitioners access to additional information needed to more safely manage infusion therapy via infusion pumps. It enables remote viewing of pump status within the hospital and enables comparisons of pharmacy-entered prescription information to programmed pump settings. All data entry and validation of infusion parameters is performed by the trained healthcare professional according to a physician's order. The Pump Connectivity Interface also enables secondary notification of pump alerts and alarms to remote users via a personal digital assistant (PDA) or similar device. The Pump Connectivity Interface is intended for use by trained healthcare practitioners in accordance with the instructions provided in Pump Connectivity Interface labeling.

## Device Story

System of hardware and software integrating external infusion pumps into hospital network infrastructure; enables wireless communication between pumps and external devices (PCs, PDAs, HIMS, monitoring systems). Inputs: infusion parameters, system configuration, history, events, trending, alarms, status. Outputs: remote display of pump status, secondary alarm notifications to mobile devices. Used in professional healthcare environments by trained practitioners. Facilitates remote monitoring of infusion therapy and comparison of pharmacy-entered prescriptions against pump settings. Does not perform automated data entry; all validation remains with the clinician. Benefits: improved safety through remote visibility and secondary alarm notification.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Performance data indicate the device meets specified requirements and is substantially equivalent to predicate devices.

## Technological Characteristics

Computerized wireless interface system; integrates with hospital network infrastructure; supports communication with PCs, PDAs, and HIMS. Connectivity: wireless network integration. Software-based management tool for infusion pump data.

## Regulatory Identification

An infusion pump is a device used in a health care facility to pump fluids into a patient in a controlled manner. The device may use a piston pump, a roller pump, or a peristaltic pump and may be powered electrically or mechanically. The device may also operate using a constant force to propel the fluid through a narrow tube which determines the flow rate. The device may include means to detect a fault condition, such as air in, or blockage of, the infusion line and to activate an alarm.

## Predicate Devices

- Alaris Medley System with MMS
- B. Braun Horizon Outlook with DoseCom

Trade/Device Name: Pump Connectivity Interface Regulation Number: 880.5725 Regulation Name: Infusion Pump Regulatory Class: II Product Code: FRN Dated: November 23, 2004 Received: November 24, 2004

Dear Mr. Wilkinson:

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. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

{3}------------------------------------------------

Page 2 - Ms. Paine

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act): 21 CFR 1000-1050.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0115. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97). You may obtain other general information on your responsibilities under the Act from the Division of Small Manufacturers, International and Consumer Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597 or at its Internet address http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsma/dsmamain.html
