Device Description

Cardiac EP studies are diagnostic tests that enable physicians to look at electrical signals from within the heart in detail to determine if an abnormality (arrhythmia) exists. The cardiac EP laboratory is typically staffed with one or more physicians, nurses, and technologists thus making the lab a busy and sometimes crowded workspace. A physician directs the EP study and the operation of the EP-WorkMate® [K994011] system; some physicians operate the system, others direct a member of the clinical staff on the system operation. The EP-WorkMate® system is illustrated in Figure 1. Under the direction of a physician, the cardiac stimulator delivers diagnostic stimuli to the heart through the EP catheter(s). The heart's electrical response to the diagnostic signals is returned through the catheter(s) to the amplifier/signal conditioning unit (Amp/SCU). The amplified and conditioned signals are displayed as waveforms and tabular EP data on the EP-WorkMate® real-time display monitor for diagnosis by the physician. A physician may also choose to record/store the signals using the EP-WorkMate®

NurseMate™ [K063113] is a modification to the EP-WorkMate® computer that is offered as an option to customers under the name NurseMate™. NurseMate™ is a PC (Personal Computer) workstation that is connected to the EP-WorkMate® system for real-time patient charting, physiologic monitoring, and data analysis during electrophysiology (EP) studies. The interconnection of NurseMate™ to EP-WorkMate® is illustrated in Figure 2. Expanding the EP-WorkMate® system with the optional NurseMate TM creates an additional workstation for a member of the EP team such as a nurse. The additional workstation reduces crowding at the main EP-WorkMate® station and eases workflow congestion in the busy cardiac EP laboratory. Using NurseMate™ an EP lab staff member can perform patient charting (e.g., event titles, medications, and comments) and monitor physiologic data from the Amp/SCU including heart rate (HR) and blood pressure (BP) on their own display separate from the physician who is controlling the EP study using EP-WorkMate® workstation. Figure 3 illustrates NurseMate's™ graphical user interface (GUI) displaying HR and BP.

This application describes a modification to the EP-WorkMate® with NurseMate™ system that will be offered as an option to customers under the name NurseMate™ with Physio Module. NurseMate™ with Physio Module is a simple modification to EP-WorkMate® with NurseMate™ that allows data from an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) physiologic monitoring device (connected to NurseMate™) to be logged into the current EP-WorkMate® database. The benefit of this product is reduced manual data entry and improved data management. NurseMate™ with Physio Module PC workstation is connected to the EP-WorkMate® system; it may also be connected to an OEM physiologic monitor. Interconnection of NurseMate™ with Physio Module to a physiologic monitor is accomplished using a serial data cable; this is illustrated in Figure 4. Use of an OEM physiologic monitoring device is not affected in any way by integration with NurseMate™; users follow the monitor's IFU and operate the device in accordance with its intended use.

The intent of this submission is to provide premarket notification that the company shall offer the ability to log data from OEM monitors in general. Hence, EPMedSystems employs design controls, verification and validation processes in the integration of physiologic monitors with NurseMate™ with Physio Module. Any monitor intended for integration and sale in the US must have, at a minimum, FDA market clearance. As of this writing, the company has completed one device-specific physiologic monitor interface; this interface is for the Advisor® Vital Signs Monitor [K010770] made by Smiths Medical PM, Inc., Patient Monitoring and Ventilation, N7 W22025 Johnson Drive, Waukesha, Wisconsin The Advisor® is cleared for market under its own 510(k) 53186. The Advisor®'s monitoring modalities recorded by [K010770]. NurseMate™ include: temperature (TEMP), respiration rate (RESP), oximetry (SpO2), noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP) and endtidal CO2 (EtCO2).

The NurseMate™ with Physio Module software is simply a modified version of the EP-WorkMate® with NurseMate™ application software. The EP-WorkMate® with NurseMate™ software was modified using the same Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 Integrated Development Environment (with Visual Studio Service Pack 6.0) within which it was developed. The Visual Otadio Oct novsio Module for EP-WorkMate® program code was added into the WorkMate® with NurseMate™ C++ program code; hence, the software applications are highly similar. It is important to note that NurseMate™ with Physio Module does not control the patient monitor and it does not control cardiac stimulation. A list comprising a functional software comparison between EP-WorkMate® and NurseMate™ with Physio Module is presented in Table 1.

NurseMate™ with Physio Module electronics hardware is identical to that of the original NurseMate™ system; these were designed and built using similar PC technology employed in the EP-WorkMate®. NurseMate TM with Physio Module comprises a: PC, touch screen LCD monitor, Central Processing Unit (CPU), mouse, keyboard, an equipment cart and optional physiologic monitor mounting hardware. The CPU is an off-the-shelf Pentium microprocessor based personal computer running Microsoft Windows Operating System (OS), with on board Random Access Memory (RAM), a Hard Disk Drive (HDD), a Read/Writable (RW) Compact Disk (CD), multiple Universal Serial Bus (USB) ports, and a Network Interface Controller (NIC). The NurseMate™ with Physio Module station is identical to the original NurseMate™ station. Compared to EP-WorkMate®, NurseMate™ has a smaller, more movable form factor; it has a single display monitor and a smaller footprint cart with castors. Figure 5 illustrates the NurseMate™ with Physio Module station form factor including the optional physiologic monitor and mounting hardware.

To use NurseMate™ with Physio Module as intended, three basic interconnections are required:

EP-WorkMate® (PC) to NurseMate™ (PC) connection: The first interconnection between the two computers illustrated in Figure 6 is required for the client-server operation. The EP-WorkMate® acts as the server and the NurseMate™ with Physio Module acts as the client via handshaking signals. The client is passive except in that NurseMate™ with Physio Module can issue commands to the WorkMate® to start/stop data recording. The hardware interconnection between the computers is comprised of off-theshelf category five (CAT 5) network cabling; the connections are terminated with standard data communication connectors (RJ-45). LAN connectivity is established using standard networking software protocol, Telecommunications Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
NurseMate™ (PC) to EP-WorkMate® (Amp/SCU) connection: The second interconnection between the NurseMate™ with Physio Module computer and the EP-WorkMate® amplifier/signal conditioning unit (Amp/SCU) uses the same hardware as a LAN connection. Communication is accomplished using a common software protocol known as Packet Driver which is similar to TCP/IP. This connection enables the NurseMate™ with Physio Module user to independently configure and view real time patient EP waveforms from the Amp/SCU during an EP study.
NurseMate™ (PC) to OEM Physiologic Monitor: The third interconnection is between the NurseMate™ with Physio Module computer and the OEM physiologic monitor; this uses a standard serial cable. The NurseMate™ (PC) to OEM physiologic monitor interconnection is terminated with a standard 9 pin connector (DB-9) at the OEM monitor and a Universal Serial Bus (USB) connector at the NurseMate™ PC. Transmission of the data from the OEM physiologic monitor to the NurseMate™ is accomplished via basic serial data communications protocol.
