Philips Medizinsysteme Boeblingen Gmbh, Cardiac An

Summary: The Philips MP2 and X2 IntelliVue patient monitors are portable devices used for continuous monitoring of vital signs in various clinical settings. They are primarily used by healthcare professionals in hospitals and clinics.

FDA Clearance Information

Pathway 510K
Decision Date August 10, 2007
Product Code MHX
Device Class Class 2
Evidence 419 studies

The Philips MP2 and X2 IntelliVue patient monitors were cleared through the FDA 510(k) pathway on August 10, 2007. Manufactured by Philips Medizinsysteme Boeblingen Gmbh, they are classified as Class 2 devices under product code MHX.

What It Is

The Philips MP2 and X2 IntelliVue patient monitors are advanced portable monitoring systems designed to provide continuous monitoring of vital signs such as ECG, SpO2, and blood pressure. These devices are equipped with intuitive interfaces and are compatible with various sensors and modules, making them versatile for different clinical needs. They are often used in emergency departments, intensive care units, and during patient transport within healthcare facilities.

Clinical Applications

These monitors are commonly used in settings that require continuous monitoring of a patient's physiological parameters, such as during surgery, in intensive care units, and in emergency rooms. They are essential in managing critically ill patients, providing real-time data to inform treatment decisions. The portability of these devices makes them particularly useful in scenarios where patients need to be moved between departments or during intra-hospital transport.

Indications for Use

The FDA indications suggest that these monitors are intended for use in patients who require continuous monitoring of vital signs. This includes patients in critical care settings, those undergoing surgical procedures, or individuals with conditions that necessitate close observation of cardiac and respiratory functions.

Practical Considerations

The Philips MP2 and X2 monitors are designed to be compact and lightweight, facilitating easy transport and use in various clinical environments. They are compatible with a range of Philips sensors and accessories, which should be considered when setting up the device. Proper training on device operation and understanding of its features is recommended for optimal use.

Related Literature

A study conducted in 2013 highlighted that electromagnetic interference (EMI) could cause false asystole alarms in certain Philips IntelliVue monitoring products, including the MP2 and X2 models. This issue arises when the pace pulse rejection feature is enabled, leading to incorrect ECG readings. The study suggests that updating to firmware version D.02.05 may mitigate this problem. However, the study's limitations include its focus on specific firmware and device configurations.
