Page 4/40 Version 01.00 • Date 25JAN2018 Indications for Use The Asthma Monitor AM3/AM3 BT/AM3 GSM/G+/BT+ is an electronic measurement device to monitor the lung function (determination of the respiratory flows and volume) with high reproducibility wherever and whenever there is a need of. The AM3 measures the flow during expiration serving for the calculation of further parameters as FEV1. The AM3 is used to monitor the respiratory status of adult human beings in the areas of asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder and in areas like occupational medicine, clinical trials and disease management. The patient is informed of the results by numeric values for the selected parameters (e.g. PEF, FEV1). Furthermore, a visual control unit, displayed in the form of traffic lights, allows an immediate indication of the measurement based on criteria defined by the patient’s physician. The device saves the results of a measurement (always with date and time) automatically in an internal database. In addition, questionnaire functionality can be called up by the use of a software (AMOS) to record e.g. the “Quality of Life” status. When enabled, the AM3 can be programmed with a couple of questions, where the patient can then select from a couple of different answers. This information is also stored in the internal database and can be transmitted for evaluation using the software AMOS. The AM3 is designed to replace an ordinary peak flow meter, diary and pencil by a single system. Easy handling, sturdy and handy design allow the Asthma Monitor AM3 to be used in healthcare, clinical and home use environments/settings.

Safety Precautions AM3 The Instructions for Use is regarded to be a part of the instrument, and should always be kept on hand. The instruction manual describes the present state of the device/system including software and accessories with regard to the fundamental requirements of the MDD 93/42/EEC. Exact adherence to the instructions issued is a prerequisite for perfect and intended functioning of ERT instruments. Deviation from Intended Use Any non-observance of the procedures (such as preparing for the measurement and methods, disinfecting procedures, use of accessories and replacement parts etc.) described in the Instructions for Use results in a deviation from intended use. In case of a deviation from intended use the operator/user has to supply proof of meeting all corresponding fundamental requirements. This is possible by performing a corresponding conformity assessment procedure within in-house manufacture (see § 12, paragraph 1 last sentence of MPG (= Medizinproduktegesetz/ Medical Products Act). The operator/user is, however, not only responsible for performing the conformity assessment correctly but is also completely liable for defective products - i.e. the operator/user is not only liable for his/her modification of the medical product. ERT only guarantees for the safety, reliability and functioning of the device if: - installation, extension, modifications, and repairs are exclusively carried out by personnel authorized for these tasks by ERT. - the ambient conditions at the place of installation are suitable for the device. - the device is used according to the Instructions for Use. - Unpack your medical device. Please check if the unit is damaged. If so, do not use it and return it for a replacement. The user has to follow the instructions. If the user doesn’t obey the safety precautions this can lead to hazardous situations which can lead to injury or death of the patient and/or destruction of the device. Version 01.00 • Date 25JAN2018 Page 25/40 Electrical Safety The AM3 is powered from an internal Lithium-Ion rechargeable battery, the battery can be charged over a direct plug-in power supply (unit). Attention: - Only the original power supply delivered with the AM3 must be used for charging the device. - Do not perform measurements if the AM3 is connected to another device. - Data transfer is not permitted during measurement. Patient Safety according to EN 60601-1 The subject has to keep a distance of at least 1,5 m from a connected modem or notebook to avoid any contact with electrical voltage. Valid for all ERT Devices Additional equipment connected to medical electrical equipment must comply with the respective EN or ISO standards (e.g. EN 60950 for data processing equipment). Furthermore all configurations shall comply with the requirements for medical electrical systems. Anybody connecting additional equipment to medical electrical equipment configures a medical system and is therefore responsible that the system complies with the requirements for medical electrical systems. Attention is drawn to the fact that local laws take priority over the above mentioned requirements. If in doubt, consult your local representative or the ERT Customer Care. Radiated Interference The ERT device meets the regulations according to EN 60601-1-2 regarding interference radiated and received. It is recommended not performing a measurement with the device directly next to other equipment or in combination with other devices in a stacked form, as this may result in faulty operation. Page 26/40 Version 01.00 • Date 25JAN2018 However, if performing a measurement is required in the manner described above, the devices should be observed to ensure they work properly. The device should not be installed in the vicinity of high-frequency devices, X-ray equipment, motors or transformers with high installed power rating, since electric or magnetic interference fields may falsify the results of measurements or make taking measurements impossible. Due to this, the vicinity of power lines is to be avoided as well. Existing environmental interferences may cause deviations of the measuring values without impairing the device’s function. Therefore, it is recommended to keep a distance of about 2 meters from possible error sources when using the device. Use ERT approved accessories or spare parts for this medical device only. Use of unapproved equipment can result in increased electromagnetic interference or reduced electromagnetic immunity of the medical device and can lead to faulty operation. Other portable RF communication equipment (including their accessories, such as antenna cables and external antennas) should not be spaced less than 30 cm (or 12 inches) from the parts and leads of the AM3. Failure to do so may result in a reduction in the performance of the AM3. Ambient Conditions AM3 must not be operated in rooms or in the presence of flammable anaesthetic mixture with air or flammable anaesthetic mixture with oxygen or nitrous oxide. AM3 has to be effectively protected against moisture. Therefore, it is required that the AM3 is always stored in the corresponding bag. The device corresponds to IP 22 degree of protection. Measurements in the rain or in the shower are not allowed. Measuring Mode As the combination with an IEC 60950-1 proofed PC or modem can lead to a summation of the leakage current, the AM3 must not be connected to a PC or modem during the measurement. Should the measuring values of the AM3 be changed after a longer period of use, a new sensor should be used. Version 01.00 • Date 25JAN2018 Page 27/40 Interfaces The AM3 must only be connected to a PC that corresponds to EN 60950 standards. If the connection cable is defective, it has to be replaced by a new one. The operator must not touch the Interfaces during measurement. Medical Supervision A qualified physician has to reassess all AM3 measurements. An interpretation by the AM3 is only important if it is considered in connection with other clinical findings. Contraindications and possible adverse effects: According to ‘‘ATS/ERS TASK FORCE: STANDARDISATION OF LUNG FUNCTIONTESTING’’ (ERS Journals Ltd 2005) performing lung function tests can be physically demanding for a minority of subjects. It is recommended that subjects should not be tested within 1 month of a myocardial infarction. In rare cases spirometry testing can lead to syncope due to extensive exhalation. Furthermore, the following conditions probably lead to suboptimal lung function results: - Chest or abdominal pain of any causes, - Oral or facial pain exacerbated by a mouthpiece, - Stress incontinence, - Dementia or disorientation. According to “German Airway League, German Respiratory Society and German Society of Occupational and Environmental Medicine, 2015” (S2 guideline “Spirometry”) forced manoeuvers should not be performed in case of: - acute, life threatening diseases of every description (e.g. acute fulminant pulmonary embolism, large ascending aortic aneurysm, tension pneumothorax) - massive pneumothorax (within the first weeks) - abdominal or thoracic surgery (depending on the findings 1 to 4 weeks postoperatively) - surgery of the eyes, brain, or ears (variable, consultation with the surgeon) - Special care must be taken when dealing with hemoptysis of unknown origin Page 28/40 Version 01.00 • Date 25JAN2018 Putting the Device into Operation Temperature changes may give rise to condensation in the device. Consequently, the device has to adapt to the ambient temperature before putting it into operation. Cleaning and Hygiene Prior to every application, all parts which come in contact with the patient and which are intended for reuse must be cleaned or disinfected (unless otherwise instructions are available). During cleaning, the AM3 must not be connected to a PC or modem. Referring to humidity and water which may get into the device, AM3 corresponds to the safety degree IP 22. This means, the device can be cleaned with a damp (in no case dripping wet) cloth which does not produce fluff. More detailed information can be found under “Cleaning”. Chemicals required for operation or care of the unit have to be used in accordance with instructions of the manufacturer and must always be stored, prepared and made available in specially marked vessels to prevent any mistakes. Maintenance The device doesn’t require to perform preventive inspection, maintenance and calibration. No part of the AM3 should be replaced by the subject/doctor. Use ERT approved accessories and spare parts for this medical device, only. If the device/applied part has been exposed to extreme mechanical stress, a function test has to be performed.
