Intended Use

MT Alert Infusion Monitor is intended for use in any healthcare setting where gravityflow infusions are utilized.

Device Story

Passive weighing device for gravity-flow infusion bags; monitors fluid levels to detect near-empty states or track bolus administration. User sets alarm threshold by hanging desired weight. Device mounts to standard poles/rods; operates on alkaline batteries. Provides audio and visual alarms when weight drops below set point. Used in clinical settings by healthcare personnel to manage fluid delivery; assists in monitoring irrigant levels during procedures. Benefits include improved efficiency in fluid management and timely alerts for fluid depletion.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Validation procedures performed to compare device performance against the predicate system.

Technological Characteristics

Passive weighing device; battery-powered (2 AA batteries); pole-mounted; audio/visual alarm indicators; accommodates infusion bags up to 3 liters; bolus monitoring capability (1 liter mode).

Indications for Use

Indicated for monitoring gravity-flow infusion fluid levels in healthcare settings. Not intended for intravenous infusion monitoring.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

An electronic monitor for gravity flow infusion systems is a device used to monitor the amount of fluid being infused into a patient. The device consists of an electronic transducer and equipment for signal amplification, conditioning, and display.
