The MAC1600 is a portable ECG acquisition, analysis and recording system. The MAC1600 is intended to acquire, analyze, display and record information from adult and pediatric populations. Pediatric population is defined as patients between the ages of 0 and 15 years. The MAC1600 is intended to be used by trained operators in a hospital or medical professional's facility environment to record ECG signals from surface electrodes. The basic system shall provide 2 modes of operation: (1) Resting ECG mode and (2) Arrhythmia mode. The basic systems shall print 6 or 12-leads of ECG. The device shall be upgradeable to provide software options such as 12-lead ECG measurement and interpretive analysis. The basic system shall be upgradeable with a third mode of operation: (3) Exercise mode for exercise stress testing. Transmission and reception of ECG data to and from a central ECG cardiovascular information system shall be optional. The arrhythmia detection portion of the MAC 1600 is provided to the customer for the convenience of automatic documentation.

The MAC 1600 is used under the direct supervision of a licensed healthcare practitioner.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
