1.1 General Product Description
1.1.1 V Series Monitoring Platform
The V 12/V 21 monitoring platform is a modular patient monitoring system. The system architecture
allows users to customize, by removal or addition of modules, monitored parameters based on a
patients monitoring need or acuity level. The modular design simplifies the addition of monitoring
additional parameters with the addition of parameter modules.
The V 12/V 21 monitoring platform focuses on the philosophy of “Ease of Use” while incorporating
traditionally highly complex monitoring parameters. The user interface minimizes menu layers and
excessive user interaction to simplify patient care. The V Series monitoring platform maximizes the
amount of viewable data through the use of a Portrait display orientation.
The V 12/V 21 monitoring platform consists of the following major components:
1. V 12/V 21 Monitor - The V 12/V 21 monitor which includes the system processor, display, user
interface and appropriate connectors for communication to peripheral devices. Power the V 12/
V 21 from AC through the V Dock. Up to three (3) removable batteries may also be used to
power the V 12.
2. V Dock - The V 12/V 21 V Dock is a physical mount for the V 12/V 21 designed to provide quick
connection and release with peripheral devices. The V Dock incorporates multiple connectivity
ports designed to enable quick connection and release for mobility.
3. V Patient Server (VPS) - The V 12/V 21 VPS is a lightweight parameter acquisition device
designed to acquire and store up to 12 hours of real-time vital sign data including 3/5 Lead ECG
including ST and Arrhythmia Analysis, Respiration, two (2) Invasive Blood Pressures, Non-invasive
Blood Pressure, Pulse Oximetry, and Temperature. This module is a patient centered solution
that measures the parameter stated and allows it to be moved with the patient between V 12/V
21 display and control units without removing the patient connections.
4. V Hub - The V 12/V 21 V Hub hosts several module bays to allow multiple modules to be
connected to the monitor. The V Hub connects to the monitor via a PUSB cable.
5. 12 Lead ECG - The V 12/V 21 12 Lead ECG module monitors 12 lead ECG and Respiration
including ST, Arrhythmia Analysis and 12 Lead Interpretation through the VPS module. 12 Lead
Interpretation is obtained using the University of Glasgow 12-Lead ECG algorithm. The V 12/V
21 12 Lead ECG is used in conjunction with the VPS by using its ECG port as a connection to the
system.
6. CO Module - The V 12/V 21 CO module acquires thermodultion cardiac output parameter data
from the patient.
7. CO
2
Module - The V 12/V 21 CO
2
module acquires carbon dioxide respiration parameter data
from the patient.
8. Battery - The battery is a lithium smart battery and is used in the V 12 monitor where the V Dock
is not available. When powered on, the self-check feature of the V 12 provides verification of
proper operation.
9. IBP Module - The IBP module provides two additional IBP channels.
10. Temperature Module - The Temperature module provides an additional temperature channel.
11. VDI Module - The V Device Integrator module provides the device integration interface.
12. BIS Module-The V 12/V 21 BIS module acquires the patient’s depth of anesthesia parameter
data by using information derived from an electroencephalogram (EEG) signal.
1.1.2 Interfacing
The V 12/V 21 has the capability of interfacing with Panorama Central Stations and Nurse Call
Systems.
