Intended Use
The MedStar System is indicated for Out-of-Hospital Use with any patient requiring Out-of-Hospital monitoring. The associated Collection Server is intended for use in a Disease Management Center, Hospital or Hospital-Type facility, Medical Clinic or Physician's Office.
Device Description
The MedStar Monitoring System II comprises the MedStar Unit and the associated Collection Server. The MedStar Unit is a portable, battery-operated unit for controlling the transmission of data from a range of compatible patient monitors or measurement devices to a remote monitoring center. Data is transmitted via telephone lines to the associated data collection server at the remote site. The MedStar Unit is contained in a small plastic enclosure with an LCD screen mounted into the top of the case. The case is made of a strong impact resistant plastic material. A User push button control is located adjacent to the display. Four serial communication ports are located at the side of the unit for connection to the serial data ports of specific patient monitors. Two standard phone jacks are also located at the side of the unit for connection to standard phone outlets. Two recessed programming buttons are included on the opposite side of the enclosure to the phone jacks. The Collection Server comprises a Personal Computer-type Processor Unit incorporating an additional electronics board to control phone line transmission to and from the MedStar Unit.
More Information

No
The description focuses on data transmission and collection, with no mention of AI/ML algorithms for analysis or interpretation.

No
The device is described as a system for monitoring and transmitting patient data, not for providing medical treatment or diagnosis.

No.

The MedStar System is described as a device that controls the transmission of data from patient monitors or measurement devices to a remote monitoring center. It does not perform diagnostic functions itself but rather facilitates the communication of data from other monitoring devices.

No

The device description clearly outlines hardware components for both the MedStar Unit (portable unit with enclosure, LCD, buttons, ports) and the Collection Server (PC-type processor unit with additional electronics board).

Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples such as blood, urine, or tissue that have been taken from the human body to detect diseases or other conditions.
  • Device function: The MedStar System II is described as a system for monitoring and transmitting data from patient monitors or measurement devices. It acts as a communication hub, not a device that performs tests on biological samples.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "Out-of-Hospital monitoring" and data collection in healthcare settings. This aligns with remote patient monitoring, not in vitro testing.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on hardware for data transmission (serial ports, phone jacks, processor unit) and display, not components for handling or analyzing biological samples.

The device's purpose is to facilitate the transfer of patient data from existing monitoring devices to a remote location, not to perform diagnostic tests itself.

N/A

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The MedStar System II is intended to transfer patient physiological data from a range of patient monitors to a remote station, such as a Disease Management Center, for subsequent transfer by a Hospital Information System for review by a healthcare professional. The MedStar System II is intended for use with any patient requiring Out-of-Hospital monitoring. The MedStar System II is not used directly with a patient.

The MedStar Unit is intended for Out-of-Hospital Use. The associated Collection Server is intended for use in a Disease Management Center, Hospital or Hospital-Type facility, Medical Clinic or Physician's Office. The MedStar System II is intended for sale by or on the order of a physician only.

Device Description

The MedStar Monitoring System II comprises the MedStar Unit and the associated Collection Server. The MedStar Unit is a portable, battery-operated unit for controlling the transmission of data from a range of compatible patient monitors or measurement devices to a remote monitoring center.

Data is transmitted via telephone lines to the associated data collection server at the remote site.

The MedStar Unit is contained in a small plastic enclosure with an LCD screen mounted into the top of the case. The case is made of a strong impact resistant plastic material. A User push button control is located adjacent to the display.

Four serial communication ports are located at the side of the unit for connection to the serial data ports of specific patient monitors.

Two standard phone jacks are also located at the side of the unit for connection to standard phone outlets.

Two recessed programming buttons are included on the opposite side of the enclosure to the phone jacks.

The Collection Server comprises a Personal Computer-type Processor Unit incorporating an additional electronics board to control phone line transmission to and from the MedStar Unit.

The MedStar System II accepts serial data from the following patient monitors or measurement devices:

Monitored/measured data is transferred from a patient monitor/measurement device, e.g. a Blood/Glucose Monitor or Weight Scale, via that unit's serial data port under the control of a serial port protocol. The data is then stored in the MedStar Unit prior to undergoing Dual Tone Multiple Frequency, DTMF, encoding to facilitate phone line transmission to a remote site, such as a Disease Management Center.

A Collection Server comprising a Personal Computer with an additional communications board, receives and decodes the transmitted data and stores the data locally for subsequent transfer to a Hospital Information System for review by a healthcare professional.
