Read the full statement (206 words)

The Cardiac Science CareCenter MD is intended to be used by trained operators under the direct supervision of a licensed healthcare practitioner on adult and pediatric populations. The device is designed to acquire, display, process, record, analyze and output 12 lead ECG data during periods of physiological stress, induced through exercise or pharmacological means or during resting EGG testing. In addition, the CareCenter MD provides interfaces for acquiring physiological data from ancillary devices (such as spirometry and blood pressure) and records EGG in real time with and without arrhythmia detection.

The system provides automatic interpretation of resting EGG on adult populations. No automatic interpretation of resting EGGs is provided for pediatric populations. Interpretive statements should be overviewed and approved by trained physicians.

The CareCenter MD may provide interfaces for the control of external devices such as a treadmill or an ergometer, and for communicating with centralized computer systems via a network. The device is intended to provide non-diagnostic patient data management functions as both a self-contained, stand-alone application and by interfacing with Electronic Medical Records systems.

The device is not intended to be used as a vital signs or long term physiological monitor. The CareCenter MD is not intended to be used as a transport device.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
