Intended Use
The Hill-Rom® Heart and Respiration Rate Monitoring System powered by EarlySense® is used with compatible bed system models and is intended for continuous measurement of respiration rate and heart rate in an automatic, contact-less manner. The system is indicated for use in children, adolescents, and adults in hospitals or clinical settings. It is intended to be used for the same patient populations and the same settings, within these ranges, as the bed with which it is used. The system has been validated to withstand up to 700 lbs (318 kg).
Device Description
The Hill-Rom® Heart and Respiration Rate Monitoring System powered by EarlySense® is designed for continuous and contact-free measurement of heart and respiratory rate. This device is used with a hospital bed system which is exempt from premarket submission requirements. The Bed Sensing Unit (sensor) attaches to the bed frame and plugs into the bed to both receive power and to transmit data to the bed's graphical user interface/display unit. Additionally, the System can send alarms to an existing hardwired Nurse Call system, speakers, and/or on/off alarm lights within a bed system. The healthcare professional is able to adjust monitoring parameters by interacting with the bed's graphical user interface/display. These parameters include alarm thresholds, display settings, and alarm configurations. The system provides alarm when patient heart rate and/or respiratory rate excurse above or below the predefined thresholds. The Hill-Rom® Heart and Respiration Rate Monitoring System powered by EarlySense® consists of: - . The Bed Sensing Unit, placed on the bed frame under the mattress - . Software for data analysis, display, and input - . The device hardware, specifically the connection between the sensor and appropriate bed system The System also uses the graphical user interface of an appropriate bed system. The data provided by this system is intended to provide trending information on monitored parameters which should be interpreted by a healthcare professional only. The Hill-Rom® Heart and Respiration Rate Monitoring System powered by EarlySense® has not been studied on any specific patient group, nor has it been studied as a diagnostic tool for any specific disease or medical condition. It is meant as an adjunctive tool only for measuring respiration rate and heart rate. The system helps healthcare professionals detect unanticipated patient deterioration quickly by providing heart and respiratory rate continuously rather than through standard periodic caregiver rounding.
More Information

No
The document does not mention AI, ML, or any related technologies in the device description or performance studies. The system relies on a sensor and software for data analysis and display, but there is no indication of advanced algorithms or learning capabilities.

No.
The device is described as a monitoring system that provides trending information on heart and respiration rates and helps detect patient deterioration, but it does not claim to treat or cure any disease or condition. It explicitly states it has "not been studied as a diagnostic tool for any specific disease or medical condition" and is meant as an "adjunctive tool only for measuring respiration rate and heart rate."

No

Explanation: The device description explicitly states: "The Hill-Rom® Heart and Respiration Rate Monitoring System powered by EarlySense® has not been studied on any specific patient group, nor has it been studied as a diagnostic tool for any specific disease or medical condition. It is meant as an adjunctive tool only for measuring respiration rate and heart rate."

No

The device description explicitly states that the system consists of a "Bed Sensing Unit" (hardware) and "device hardware, specifically the connection between the sensor and appropriate bed system," in addition to software. This indicates it is not a software-only device.

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 taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Function: The Hill-Rom® Heart and Respiration Rate Monitoring System powered by EarlySense® measures heart and respiration rate contact-free and externally from the patient's body, using a sensor placed under the mattress. It does not analyze samples taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for continuous monitoring of vital signs to provide trending information and help healthcare professionals detect patient deterioration. It is explicitly stated that it has not been studied as a diagnostic tool for any specific disease or medical condition.

Therefore, the device falls under the category of a patient monitoring system, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
