Read the full statement (234 words)
The ViSI Mobile Monitoring System is intended for use by clinicians and medically qualified personnel for single or multi-parameter vital signs monitoring of adult patients (18 years or older). It is indicated for ECG (3 or 5 lead-wire), respiration rate (RESP), heart rate (HR), noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP), continuous noninvasive blood pressure (cNIBP), noninvasive monitoring of functional oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin (SpO2), pulse rate (PR), skin temperature (TEMP), posture tracking and alarms, and basic arrhythmia (Ventricular Tachycardia, Ventricular Fibrillation, Asystole, Atrial Fibrillation) analysis and alarm in hospital-based facilities including general medical-surgical floors, intermediate care floors, and emergency departments.
Continuous non-invasive blood pressure (cNIBP) measurements have not been evaluated on patients during ambulation. The basic arrhythmia analysis feature is intended for use on patients 18 years of age and older; it has not been evaluated on pediatric patients.
The arrhythmia analysis feature is intended for use by healthcare professionals trained in the identification and treatment of arrhythmia events. Automated arrhythmia analysis is an adjunct to clinical assessment; clinician review of the analysis should precede any therapeutic intervention.
The ViSi Mobile Monitoring System may be used as standalone devices or networked to ViSi Mobile Remote Viewers through wireless 802.11 communication.
The VisI Mobile Insight is an optional secondary notification system that communicates alarms directly to an assigned caregiver. It is intended to supplement the primary alarming devices which originate in the ViSI Mobile patient-worn device.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
