The ApexPro FH Telemetry System is intended for use under the direct supervision of a licensed
healthcare practitioner. The system is designed to acquire and monitor physiological data for
ambulating patients within a defined coverage area. The system processes this physiological
data to detect various ECG arrhythmia events and select physiological parameter limit violations.
The ApexPro FH Telemetry System is intended to be installed in the hospital or clinical
environment in order to provide clinicians with patient physiological data, while allowing for patient
mobility. These systems are typically deployed in sub acute care areas in hospitals or clinical
sites where patient mobility can enhance the effectiveness of the medical procedures
administered.
The physiological parameters monitored include ECG, non-invasive blood pressure, non-invasive
temperature and Sp02. The ApexPro FH Telemetry System is intended to provide ECG data via
Ethernet to the computer platform for processing. The ApexPro FH is also intended to provide
physiologic data over the Unity network to clinical information systems for display.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
