Intended Use

The VSM 6000 Series of monitors is intended to be used by clinicians and medically qualified personnel for monitoring of neonatal, pediatric, and adult patients for:

  • noninvasive blood pressure.
  • pulse rate,
  • noninvasive functional oxygen saturation of arteriolar hemoglobin (SpO2), and
  • body temperature in normal and axillary modes.

The most likely locations for patients to be monitored are general medical and surgical floors, general hospital, and alternate care environments.

The optional Masimo Rainbow SET® and accessories are indicated for the continuous noninvasive monitoring of total hemoglobin concentration of adult, pediatric, and neonatal patients during both motion and no motion conditions, and for patients who are well or poorly perfused in hospitals and hospital-type facilities.

Optional compatible weight scales (e.g., Health o meter®) can be used for height, weight, and BMI input.

This product is available for sale only upon the order of a physician or licensed health care professional.

Device Description

The Welch Allyn Connex® Vital Signs Monitor 6000 Series is designed to provide a scalable, modular system of components that can be configured to address the needs for vital signs spot check and continuous monitoring.

The CVSM 6000 Series is intended to be used by clinicians and medically qualified personnel for monitoring of noninvasive blood pressure, pulse rate, noninvasive functional oxygen saturation of arteriolar hemoglobin (SpO2), Total Hemoglobin (SpHb and SpHbv), and body temperature in normal and axillary modes of neonatal, pediatric, and adult patients. The CVSM can also display and transfer patient data that is electronically or manually entered from external and accessory devices, e.g., weight and height data, barcode, IR temperature, and other patient or facility information. Data can be transferred electronically via USB, wired Ethernet, or wireless communications.

The monitor has an enclosure constructed of engineering plastics with internal steel members for strengthening. A silicone light bar is prominent in a carry handle on the top of the device and illuminates for different alarm conditions. A power button is located on the side of the device. A touch screen display is prominent on the front of the device and provides the primary interface for the user to interact with the device. Internal and external communications are primarily by USB. External host USB connections for accessories are tool accessible. A USB connection for data transfer is on the side of the device, as is a connection to an internal relay for use with nurse call systems. The device contains an internal AC power supply for operating the device and charging the internal Lithium Ion battery.

The monitor can be configured for use in different workflows including desktop, affixed to a mobile stand, or on a wall mount.

AI/ML Overview

The Welch Allyn Connex® Vital Signs Monitor 6000 Series is a physiological monitor. The provided text indicates that no clinical studies were performed, but rather verification and validation were conducted to ensure expected performance based on relevant international standards. Therefore, some of the requested information regarding clinical studies and ground truth cannot be extracted.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance

The document explicitly states that "No clinical studies were utilized for the purpose of obtaining safety or effectiveness data." Therefore, there is no information on a 'test set' in the context of clinical data, its sample size, or data provenance. The testing appears to have been focused on engineering verification and validation against standards.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

Not applicable, as no clinical studies with human expert ground truth were conducted.

4. Adjudication method for the test set

Not applicable, as no clinical studies with human expert adjudication were conducted.

5. If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

Not applicable. The device is a vital signs monitor and does not involve AI or human readers interpreting data in a comparative effectiveness study as described.

6. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

The entire submission focuses on the standalone performance of the device itself (the "algorithm only" in the sense of the device's inherent functionality). The device's performance was evaluated by confirming its compliance with various international standards through "Verification and validation," rather than through a clinical study where its output would be compared to a human interpretation.

7. The type of ground truth used

The "ground truth" used for this device's evaluation was primarily based on compliance with established international engineering and medical device standards. For example, the device was tested to ensure it met the requirements for basic safety, essential performance, electromagnetic compatibility, alarm systems, sphygmomanometers, and pulse oximeters as defined by the listed IEC and ISO standards.

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable, as the document does not describe an AI/ML model that would require a training set. The device is a physiological monitor whose performance was validated against established engineering and medical device standards.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

Not applicable, as there was no training set for an AI/ML model.

The optional Masimo Rainbow SET® and accessories are indicated for the continuous noninvasive monitoring of total hemoglobin concentration of adult, pediatric, and neonatal patients during both motion and no motion conditions, and for patients who are well or poorly perfused in hospitals and hospital-type facilities.

Optional compatible weight scales (e.g.,Health o meter®) can be used for height, weight, and BMI input.

This product is available for sale only upon the order of a physician or licensed health care professional.

Technological Characteristics:

The subject device has the same technological characteristics and indications for use as the predicate devices; minor modifications and additions to software and hardware were made to the CVSM to enable acquisition and/or display of total hemoglobin utilizing the existing Masimo Rainbow SET® module and the transfer and display of weight, height, and BMI from OEM devices (e.g., Health o meter®).

Non-Clinical Tests:

Verification and validation were conducted to ensure expected performance of the CVSM 6000 Series with enabled Masimo Rainbow SET® and data transfer from accessory patient scales.

The Connex® Vital Signs Monitor 6000 Series was tested to evaluate its safety and effectiveness based on the following standards:

  • . IEC 60601-1:Ed. 2: 1988 - Medical electrical equipment - Part 1: General requirements for basic safety and essential performance (with A1: 1991+A2:1995)
