Intended Use
The intended use of the Spacelabs Medical Ultraview™ Waveform Pager System is to interface with the Spacelabs monitoring network in order to provide a secondary means of annunciating and displaying patient alarm information to mobile healthcare providers. The device is indicated for use in real-time monitoring of routine patient status and alarm events. The pager is intended to serve as a parallel, redundant mechanism to inform the clinical staff of patient events. The Ultraview™ Waveform Pager System is intended for use as a secondary alarm in any hospital environment currently using or intending to use a Spacelabs patient-monitoring network. The Waveform Paging System supplements the primary patient-monitoring system by providing a forwarding mechanism for annunciating and displaying patient alarm events and the critical information associated with the events - including parameter values and waveforms, typically within 4 - 8 seconds of an alarm event on the patient monitor. The pager provides an audio or vibrating alert along with a series of displays showing patient identification, alarm parameters, and up to a 12-second waveform snapshot. The Spacelabs Medical Ultraview™ Waveform Pager System is a secondary alarm. It does not replace the primary alarm function on the monitor.
Device Description
The Spacelabs Medical Ultraview™ Waveform Pager System provides caregivers within a clinical environment the ability to remain mobile and be notified when an alarm event occurs. Typically, alarm notification by the pager occurs within 4-8 seconds of an alarm event on the patient monitor. The pager provides an audio or vibrating alert along with a series of displays showing patient identification, alarm parameters, and up to a 12-second waveform snapshot. The administration module allows convenient assignment of patients to caregivers from any location on the network, including WinDNA-enabled Universal Clinical Workstations. Patient status updates can also be scheduled for dispatch to the pager on a repeating basis if desired. This system is not a replacement for the primary alarm notification system. The delivery of pages cannot be guaranteed or verified. The Waveform Paging System is intended to augment alarm notification. It is not intended or designed to replace monitoring personnel, good clinical judgment, or to be used in place of bedside and remote alarm notification, or the Alarm Watch function of the monitor. The device subject to this submission is Model 91841. Each Spacelabs Medical Ultraview™ Waveform Pager System consists of a Server which collects and formats data from the monitoring network, a Transmitter which broadcasts the information to the mobile caregiver, and a Receiver which receives the broadcast and displays the formatted information.

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

No.
The device is a secondary alarm system for patient monitoring, designed to notify mobile healthcare providers of alarm events. It does not directly provide a therapeutic effect or interact with the patient for treatment purposes.

No

The device is a pager system designed to provide secondary notification of patient alarm information to mobile healthcare providers. It displays existing alarm data and waveforms but does not perform any diagnostic analysis or interpretation. It explicitly states it "does not replace the primary alarm function on the monitor" and is "not intended or designed to replace monitoring personnel, good clinical judgment," indicating it is a communication tool, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description explicitly states that the system consists of a Server, a Transmitter, and a Receiver, which are hardware components.

Based on the provided text, the Spacelabs Medical Ultraview™ Waveform Pager System 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 description clearly states the device's purpose is to interface with a patient monitoring network to provide secondary alarm notification and display patient information (parameter values and waveforms) to mobile healthcare providers. It is a communication and display system for real-time patient data.
  • Lack of Biological Sample Analysis: There is no mention of the device analyzing any biological samples from the patient. Its input is data from the patient monitoring network.

Therefore, the device falls outside the scope of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
