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:

  1. Bracelet Instruction Manual – instructions for the Bracelet and Patient App

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.
