Indications for use parsed from FDA documents

AlertWatch:OR is intended for use by clinicians for secondary monitoring of patients within operating rooms. AlertWatch:OR combines data from networked physiologic monitors, anesthesia information management systems and patient medical records and displays them in one place. AlertWatch:OR can only be used with both physiological monitors and AIMS versions that have been validated by AlertWatch. Once alerted, you must refer to the primary monitor or device before making a clinical decision. AlertWatch:OR is also intended for use by supervising anesthesiologists outside of operating rooms. Once alerted, the supervising anesthesiologist must contact the clinician inside the operating room or must return to the operating room before making a clinical decision. Once either clinician is alerted, they must refer to the primary monitor or device before making a clinical decision.

ChatPPG interpretation

A 510(k) decision of "substantially equivalent" means FDA found the device as safe and effective as a legally marketed predicate. FDA's word for this is cleared, not approved. The clearance covers the device and indications in this submission; it does not extend to other features or versions of the same product that were not part of it. See FDA cleared vs approved.
