INTRODUCTION
The Corsano CardioWatch 287-2 System is a Remote-Patient Monitoring System
that consists of a monitoring bracelet device worn on the wrist by adult
patients (aged 18 years old and over), a web-based browser platform and a user
mobile application operable in either Patient Mode or HealthCare Professional
(HCP) Mode.
Vital signs data both on mobile devices and web-based dashboard are available
to the HealthCare Provider.
The following figure shows the Corsano CardioWatch 287-2 System
The bracelet is intended to continuously monitor physiological vital sign data
(Pulse Rate (PR), oxygen saturation (SpO2), skin temperature (sTEMP) and
activity levels (MOTION / STEP) from the person being monitored and securely
transmit the encrypted data via the Patient User App to the secure server.
The bracelet is intended for use in professional healthcare facilities, such
as hospitals or skilled nursing facilities, or the home by trained healthcare
professionals.
The Corsano CardioWatch 287-2 System is also integrated with third-party
devices for displaying and monitoring physiological signs (spot monitoring of:
non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP), lung function & spirometry (SPIRO), weight
(WEIGHT) as well as continuous monitoring of axillary temperature (aTEMP).
The healthcare professional can securely access the patient physiological
signs remotely via the mobile application HCP Mode or via a browser web-
interface which are also intended to provide visual and audible physiologic
multi-parameter alarms.
There are three Instructions for Use:
- Bracelet Instruction Manual – instructions for the Bracelet and Patient App

personnel only; USA Federal Law restricts this device to sale by or on
prescription of a Physician.
The CardioWatch 287-2 System is not intended for use in high-acuity
environments, such as an ICU or operating rooms
The CardioWatch 287-2 System is not intended for use on acutely ill cardiac
patients with the potential to develop life threatening arrhythmias, e.g.,
very fast atrial fibrillation. For these patients, continuous ECG monitor
should be used. The CardioWatch 287-2 System is not a substitute for an ECG
monitor.
The CardioWatch 287-2 System is not intended for SpO2 monitoring in conditions
of high motion or low perfusion.
Consult with the Physician before using this system for a patient that has
common arrhythmias such as atrial or ventricular premature beats or atrial
fibrillation; arterial sclerosis; poor perfusion; diabetes; pregnancy; pre-
eclampsia or renal disease. Any of these conditions in addition to patient
motion, trembling, or shivering may affect the measurement made by this
device.
The physiological parameters and alarms displayed on the Web Portal are for
Healthcare Practitioners reference only and cannot be directly used as the
basis for clinical treatment. NEVER diagnose or treat the patient solely based
on the patient’s readings.
DO NOT adjust medication based on readings from this system. The patient
should take medication as prescribed by the patient’s Physician. ONLY a
Physician is qualified to diagnose and treat illness of the patient. ALWAYS
consult with the patient’s Physician.
The device is not an apnea monitor. DO NOT rely on the respiration monitoring
for detection of cessation of breathing.
The bracelet and any other applied device parts should be removed before
patient defibrillation.
DO NOT use this bracelet on infants, toddlers, children, or persons who cannot
express themselves. This device has not been validated in a pediatric
population.

Thermal injury and burns may occur due to the metal components of the device
that can heat during MR scanning.
The device may generate artifacts in the MR image.
The device may not function properly due to the strong magnetic and
radiofrequency fields generated by the MR scanner.
CAUTIONS
Patients at risk for respiratory crises should be observed closely.
Movement, ambient light, and low perfusion may affect SpO2 and pulse rate
calculation and accuracy. Corsano Health B.V. is not intended for use in
calculating accurate SpO2 during periods of high motion, high ambient light,
and low perfusion conditions.
SpO2 measurements are particularly sensitive to the pulsations in the artery
and the arteriole. Measurements may not be accurate if the patient is
experiencing shock, hypothermia, anemia or has received certain medications
that reduce the blood flow in the arteries.
Ambient, environmental temperature changes may impact the temperature of the
patient and thus temperature monitoring.
When reviewing information from the device, make sure that no mobile device or
any other electrical device that emits electromagnetic fields is within 12
inches (30 cm) of the bracelet. This may result in incorrect operation of the
bracelet and/or cause an inaccurate reading.
Read all cleaning instructions carefully before cleaning the equipment. Refer
to the cleaning section.
Ensure that this bracelet has acclimated to room temperature before taking a
measurement. Taking a measurement after an extreme temperature change may lead
to an inaccurate reading.
Motion levels are provided for information purposes only. They should not be
relied upon to inform patient care.
