Indications for Use
The 750E Patient Monitor is intended to continuously monitor a patients ECG, heart rate, non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP), functional arterial oxygen saturation (Sp02), respiration rate, temperature and end tidal carbon dioxide (C02). The monitor is designed as a bedside/portable monitor and is intended for use on adult, pediatric and neonatal patients in the care of health care professionals.
Device Story
The CAS 750E Series Monitor is a multiparameter bedside/portable monitor. This modification adds ECG synchronization (gating) and a Mean Heart Rate Deviation Measurement Trigger to the non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP) module. The device uses ECG R-wave signals to time-correlate cardiac contractions with oscillometric blood pressure pulses in an upper-arm cuff. Users can define a delay (0-80ms) between the R-wave and the synchronization pulse. If the ECG signal drops below 25 BPM, the device reverts to standard oscillometric measurement. The Mean Heart Rate Deviation Trigger initiates off-cycle blood pressure measurements if the patient's heart rate changes by a user-defined fixed value (1-98 BPM) or percentage (1-98%) for approximately 10 seconds. The device provides real-time physiological data to clinicians, enabling automated blood pressure measurements triggered by cardiac events, potentially improving monitoring accuracy and responsiveness to patient status changes.
Clinical Evidence
Clinical validation was conducted at the University of Tennessee Medical Center using the ANSI/AAMI SP10:2002 format. The study evaluated the CAS Model 750 NIBP module with ECG gating in adult and pediatric populations. The device was found to comply with the SP10 consensus standard for non-invasive blood pressure monitoring.
Technological Characteristics
Multiparameter monitor with NIBP, ECG, SpO2 (Masimo SET or Nellcor OxiMax), respiration, temperature, and EtCO2 modules. Modification involves DSP software for ECG gating and heart rate deviation triggers. Connectivity includes AC/DC power and battery operation. Bedside/portable form factor. Software-based signal processing for oscillometric pulse correlation.
Indications for Use
Indicated for continuous monitoring of ECG, heart rate, NIBP, SpO2, respiration rate, temperature, and EtCO2 in adult, pediatric, and neonatal patients by healthcare professionals in bedside or portable settings.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A cardiac monitor (including cardiotachometer and rate alarm) is a device used to measure the heart rate from an analog signal produced by an electrocardiograph, vectorcardiograph, or blood pressure monitor. This device may sound an alarm when the heart rate falls outside preset upper and lower limits.

#### EQUIVALENCE
The CAS 750E Series Monitor, with NIBP modification for ECG synchronization (gating) and Mean Heart Rate Deviation Measurement Trigger is equivalent to the following device:
* CAS 750E Series Monitor (K051896)
#### DESCRIPTION
The CAS 750E Series Monitor, with ECG Synchronization and Mean Rate Deviation Measurement Trigger is a modification based on the existing 750E monitor. Only the 750E non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP) module portion of the multiparameter monitor is affected by the change. All other parameters of the 750E (Sp02, respiration rate, EtC02 and temperature) remain untouched. The individual module responsible for NIBP is called ND+.
ECG Synchronization can use an ECG (R-wave) input signal to time correlate the occurrence of a cardiac contraction with the detection of the oscillometric blood pressure pulses occurring in a cuff wrapped around the patients upper arm. ECG Synchronization is available only when the ND+ module is operating in adult mode.
ECG synchronization is taken from the edge of the ECG R-wave synchronization input signal. The delay between the subjects actual R-wave and the edge of the ECG synchronization pulse is user definable through software. This delay can be defined to be from 0 - 80ms in increments of I ms. Once set this delay must remain constant (± 5ms) throughout the blood pressure measurement.
If during the NIBP measurement the ECG synchronization input stops providing pulses at a rate equal to 25 beats per minute (BPM), the ND+ module will stop using the ECG synchronization pulse to time correlate cardiac contractions with the detection of the oscillometric blood pressure pulses and complete the blood pressure measurement using only the oscillometric technique.
On power-up and following a reset, ECG synchronization is disabled.
The Mean Heart Rate Deviation Measurement Trigger functions while in the automatic interval measurement mode and with an ECG synchronization input present. In this mode, the Mean Heart Rate Deviation Measurement Trigger can be enabled to initiate an off-cycle blood pressure measurement when a user defined change in the subject's heart rate is detected by the ND module for a period of approximately 10 seconds. The last NIBP pulse rate measurement is compared to the current heart rate. If the current heart rate exceeds the user defined threshold, for a period of 10 seconds, an off-cycle blood pressure measurement shall be initiated. At all times there will be a minimum time between NIBP measurements of 30 seconds. The off-cycle blood pressure measurement shall restart the automatic interval timer
{2}------------------------------------------------
To produce an off-cycle measurement, the "user defined" changes can be any of the following:
- · a fixed value change in the mean heart rate of the patient between 1 and 98 BPM;
- · a percentage change in the mean heart rate definable within 1 to 98%;

### 750E Series Indications for Use
The 750E patient monitor is intended to continuously monitor a patients ECG, heart rate, non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP), functional arterial oxygen saturation (%Sp02), respiration rate, temperature and end tidal carbon dioxide (C02). The monitor is designated as a bedside/portable monitor and is intended for use on adult, pediatric and neonatal patients in the care of health care professionals.
{3}------------------------------------------------
# Comparison of Technological Characteristics
The 750E Series Monitor (with modifications) is derived from the CAS 750E (K051896) with regard to form factor and general overall look. A number of identical components are found in both products, most especially the ECG, Respiration, End Tidal C02 (EtC02), choice of pulse oximeters; Masimo SET® or Nellcor® OxiMax®, temperature and NIBP. It is only the non-invasive blood pressure MAXNIBP® parameter that is modified.
The modification does not affect indications for us and the fundamental scientific technology of the predicate 750E Series Monitor.

Two short videos show you everything — or skip straight to the written tutorial if you'd rather read. You can reopen this any time from the Tutorial button in the top bar.
Part 1 — Search, results, and everyday workflows 16 min
Part 2 — Embeddings: the galaxy map 3 min
1. Search: exact and fuzzy
Type a phrase like "coronary artery calcification" into the search box. You get two kinds of results. Exact results match the literal phrase — prefix searches work ("coronary artery calcificati") but suffix searches do not. Fuzzy results match on the meaning and intent of your phrase rather than the exact words, and are sorted by relevance score. Hover over the Exact or Fuzzy badge on any row to see exactly why it matched.
Use the checkboxes above the results to narrow: SaMD keeps only software-only devices, AI / ML keeps only devices with AI.
Exact vs. fuzzy search: what's the difference?
Exact matches on the literal phrase (prefix search works, suffix does not). Fuzzy matches on the meaning and intent of the phrase rather than the exact words. Hover over the badge on any row to see why it matched.
You search "coronary artery calcification" and want only software devices with AI. What two filters do you apply?
Narrow by SaMD (software-only devices), then narrow by AI/ML (devices with AI).
2. The results table
Scroll right in the results table. The intended use is extracted for you — no need to open the PDF. The device story gives a high-level snapshot of what the device does and how it's used. The AI Performance sub-table shows each output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, and development/test dataset descriptions — the same format Innolitics uses for regulatory strategy outputs, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. It is AI-generated but has been very reliable in practice.
Where do you find a device's intended use without opening the PDF?
Scroll right in the search results table. The intended use column is extracted for you; no need to dig into the 510(k) summary PDF.
What does the AI Performance sub-table show, and why is it useful?
Output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, development dataset description, and test dataset description. It's the same format we use for regulatory strategy output and Fast 510(k) input, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. AI-generated but reliable in practice.
3. Judging fuzzy relevance
Fuzzy results trail off in relevance as you scroll. Use three signals to decide how far down to go: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether your target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, you're past the relevant zone. A top hit with a low score (~0.4) and a stretched explanation is a hint the closest predicates are far away — the project may be headed for De Novo. Note the fuzzy search is a pattern match: it doesn't handle negation ("not") well, and hardware devices can appear — filter by SaMD/AI ML to cut them.
How do you judge how far down fuzzy search results to go?
Use the relevancy signals: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether the target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, results are trailing off in relevancy.
4. Device detail page: chat and citations
Click a device name to open its detail page: device facts on the left, a chat window on the right. Ask something like "Describe the training data". The answer carries little citation bubbles — click one to jump to the highlighted passage in the source PDF, so you can verify every AI answer against the document. There's also a Download PDF button for sharing.
How do you verify an AI chat answer on the device detail page?
Click the citation bubbles to jump to the relevant highlight in the source document.
Reading rule for every project: how many summaries do you read in full?
At least the three most relevant 510(k) or De Novo summaries, in full. After that, use targeted chat questions to confirm your memory quickly. The tool supports this professional habit — it doesn't replace it.
5. Side-by-side comparison
Select multiple rows in the results table (aim for under ~10), then open the PDF Viewer tab. Ask one question — it goes to all selected devices in parallel, each with citations. This is the fastest way to compare and contrast devices: training data, PCCP scope, how they handled adding new scanners, and so on.
What does the side-by-side PDF viewer mode do?
Select multiple devices, open the PDF viewer tab, and ask one question (e.g., "Describe the training data"). It queries all selected devices simultaneously with citations, so you can compare and contrast quickly.
6. Collections
With rows selected, go to the Collections tab and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). Reload that selection any time — before a client call, pull up the collection and ask questions across all of its devices at once.
How do you save a set of selected devices for later use?
Select the rows, go to the Collections tab, and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). You can reload the selection anytime and carry it into the PDF viewer and other tabs that support selections.
7. Product codes and the regulations tree
Click a product code in the results to jump to it in the regulations tree — identification text, sibling product codes, and devices you can open in a PDF viewer on the right. Click a regulation number to see its identification, special controls, and related product codes. You can also search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree. Always read the special controls if any exist for your device — it broadens your search and sharpens pre-kickoff research.
What can you do from the regulations tree view?
Browse product codes and regulation numbers, read the identification text and special controls, browse sibling product codes, open device PDFs on the right, and search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree.
8. Chart view
Click Show Chart and segment by regulation number (or product code) to see which regulations dominate your result set. Clicking a regulation takes you into the regulations tree. Great for spotting that most matches are, say, hardware laparoscopic devices — a cue to go back and filter.
How do you see which regulations dominate a search result set?
Click "Show Chart" and segment by Regulation Number. Clicking a regulation takes you to the regulations tree.
9. The predicate graph
Open the Predicates tab for a family-tree view of predicate relationships. Click a node to trace its parents and children; selections from search carry over pre-selected. Commonly predicated devices are worth reading — a lot of people predicated them for a reason. The visual lineage is also handy on client calls, e.g. to show how a predicate family evolved and justify why your predicate still holds.
In the predicate graph, why are commonly predicated devices worth reading?
A lot of people predicated them for a reason. Clicking a node traces parents and children, and selections from search carry over pre-selected.
10. Embeddings: the galaxy map
The Embeddings tab plots every matching document in a 2-D "galaxy map" where semantically similar devices cluster together. Hover or click clusters to explore, and let AI label the clusters for you. Embeddings beat product codes for grouping: two devices can carry different product codes (LLZ vs. QIH) yet do the same thing — the embedding captures the meaning of the intended use and device story. This is also exactly how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) works under the hood, and it makes a great visual on client calls.
