The Multi-Parameter Mobile CareGuideTM 3100 Oximeter is intended for use as an adjunct, non-invasive monitor of the hemoglobin oxygen saturation and pH of microvascular blood in a region of skeletal muscle tissue beneath the sensor. The sensor may be positioned on pigmented skin. The Multi-Parameter Mobile CareGuide 3100 Oximeter is intended to allow for display of SmO2 and pHmn data on a third party device, which would interface with the Multi-Parameter Mobile CareGuide 3100 Oximeter via USB or CAN connection. The Multi-Parameter Mobile CareGuide 3100 Oximeter is intended for prescriptive use (Rx only) by a trained healthcare professional in a hospital. The Multi-Parameter Mobile CareGuide 3100 Oximeter provides output of the most recent values of SmO2 and pHm in a trend, as well as operational device information. The Multi-Parameter Mobile CareGuide 3100 Oximeter should not be used as the sole basis for diagnosis or therapy. Note: The prospective clinical value of data from the Multi-Parameter Mobile CareGuide 3100 Oximeter has not been demonstrated in disease states.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
