The specific intended use for each Alaris® System module is specified in its respective submission. ## Device Story Alaris® PC Unit acts as central user interface and power supply for modular Alaris® System (Medley™) infusion and monitoring modules; used in professional healthcare environments. Device modification includes upgraded processor, increased memory, and color screen. Operates as host for various infusion/monitoring modules; provides power and UI for clinician interaction. Output displayed on screen for clinician monitoring and control of infusion/monitoring parameters. Benefits include improved processing speed and visual interface for clinical staff managing patient therapy. ## Clinical Evidence No clinical data provided; bench testing only. ## Technological Characteristics Modular infusion/monitoring system component. Hardware includes upgraded processor, increased memory, and color display. Functions as power supply and user interface for Alaris® System modules. Fundamental scientific technology remains consistent with predicate device. ## 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® PC Unit ([K051641](/device/K051641.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

Badal, RAC | | | Vice President, Regulatory Affairs | | DATE PREPARED: | May 1, 2009 | | DEVICE NAME: | Proprietary Name: Alaris® PC Unit | | | Common Name: Infusion Pump | | | Classification Name: Pump, Infusion, FRN (880.5725) | | PREDICATE DEVICE: | Alaris® PC Unit (K051641, October 20, 2005) | ## DEVICE DESCRIPTION The Alaris® System is a modular system that consists of a point-of-care unit (PC Unit) that provides the main user interface and power supply for the associated infusion and monitoring modules. The enhanced PC Unit will include a faster processor, increased memory, and a color screen. This update is only for the Alaris® PC Unit and does not require any change to the associated modules, systems, or accessories of the Alaris® System. {1}------------------------------------------------ ### SUMMARY OF SAFETY AND EFFECTIVENESS Page 2 of 2 #### SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE With the exception of the device modification presented in this submission, the Alaris® PC Unit is essentially the same as the originally submitted predicate device. The intended use, principles of operation, fundamental scientific technology, method of manufacture, and application are essentially the same. #### INTENDED USE The intended use of this device has not changed from the original submissions in terms of content or intent: The Alaris® PC Unit is the main user interface unit and power supply of the Alaris® System, a modular system to be used with Alaris® System modules (aka Medley " System modules) intended for use in today's growing professional healthcare environment for facilities that utilize infusion and/or monitoring devices. The specific intended use for each Alaris® System module is specified in its respective submission ## TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS A comparison of the technological characteristics of the Alaris® PC Unit and the predicate devices has been performed. The results of this comparison demonstrate that the modified Alaris® PC Unit is equivalent in technological characteristics to the unmodified device and that the fundamental scientific technology of the predicate device has not been altered. . {2}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows the seal of the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
