Overview
AI-generated summary, 1 Oct 2026
The Propaq Encore and Propaq CS models are cardiac monitors designed to continuously measure and display electrocardiogram (ECG) waveforms, heart rate, and other vital signs. These devices provide real-time monitoring of cardiac activity, including 3- or 5-lead ECG, non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP), and invasive blood pressure (BP) measurements. They are classified as Class II medical devices under FDA regulations and are intended for use in cardiovascular settings to assess cardiac function and patient stability.
These monitors are supplied as reusable, non-sterile devices intended for use in clinical environments such as hospitals, intensive care units, or emergency departments. They are cleared for MRI safety under specific conditions and are authorized for use in the United States via FDA 510(k) clearance (K012451). The Propaq Encore models (202, 204, 206) and Propaq CS models (242, 244, 246) feature high-resolution waveform annotation and can interface with central monitoring systems for remote control and data transmission. Storage and maintenance follow manufacturer guidelines to ensure accurate and reliable performance.
