  • Page 4: Overview

    Flashback Technologies’ Compensatory Reserve Index (CRI™). The model M1 is made up of the M1 device and a Nonin 8000AA Sensor (1-meter cable). The Flashback M1 is intended for use in hospitals and ground ambulances, it is not intended for use in homes.
  • Page 5: Warnings

    • The Model M1 can only be powered by battery when used in patient care. The USB connection is only for use by authorized Flashback technicians. Use by end users will void the warranty.

  • Page 9: Getting Started With The M1

    Attaching the Nonin Sensor Attach the Nonin sensor to the device by inserting the black end of the sensor into the DB9 connection on the left side of the M1 with the Nonin logo facing up (see Figure 2). Figure 2 - Attaching the Nonin Sensor Using the Nonin Articulated Clip Sensor 1.

    , and CRI values are displayed below their labels defined above. No signal information will be available on the M1 until the sensor is connected to the unit and the sensor is applied to a fingertip. Dashes are displayed when no signal is available.
  • Page 11: Gauge

    Gauge The “Gauge” to the right of the screen displays the current CRI reading in a bar chart and increments in 10ths. Trend The “Trend” graph to the left of the screen displays up to 20 minutes of the most recent CRI trend values. The trend value is updated every 5 seconds with the average CRI over the last minute.

    Each press will cycle the brightness mode. Using the lowest acceptable brightness level will prolong battery life. Powering off the M1 The device can be powered off by pressing and holding the power button for approximately 5 seconds, or until the device shuts down.
  • Page 13: Battery Replacement

    Battery Replacement The M1 uses one 1.5 volt AA battery. The battery compartment can be opened by pulling outward from the indentation on back of the device (see Figure 7). The old battery may be removed by turning the device with the opening facing down and tapping the device lightly on your hand to shake the battery free.
  • Page 14: Cleaning The M1

    Cleaning the M1 If the body of the M1 needs to be cleaned, gently wipe the surfaces with a soft cloth dampened with a mild detergent or a 10% bleach/90% water solution (household bleach [containing less than 10% sodium hypochlorite]).

    Electromagnetic Compatibility The M1 is suitable for the electromagnetic environment of typical prehospital or hospital settings. During the immunity testing described below the M1 continued to sense, calculate and display the percentage of the saturation of peripheral oxygen (SpO ) within ±2% of simulator set point, heart rate (HR) in beats per minute within ±...

    Portable RF communications equipment (including peripherals such as antenna cables and external antennas) should be used no closer than 30 cm (12 inches) to any part of the M1 System, including cables specified by the manufacturer. Otherwise, degradation of the performance of this equipment could result.

    Compliant). Metal loops are integrated in the case to attach the device to a litter, rail, or other object. Opening the case of the M1 will void its warranty and the device will stop functioning. The user cannot patch or modify the device. The device will maintain its compliancy throughout its service life.

Compensatory mechanisms (e.g. preload, baroreflexes, respiration, etc.), which serve to maintain physiological stability in the setting of acute blood loss, vary in effectiveness among individuals: Some patients reach Cardiovascular (CV) collapse after relatively little blood loss (<1 liter);...
  • Page 20: Estimating Cri From Pulsatile Waveforms

    Estimating CRI from Pulsatile Waveforms Pulsatile physiological waveforms (BP, PPG, etc.) encode significant information about the state of the cardiopulmonary system. Flashback’s data analytics technology is capable of generating accurate models from noisy high dimensional datasets like the LBNP reference database. This dataset allows us to calculate reference CRI values for each subject from known LBNP (mmHg), and our analytics system uses these and accompanying sensor data to create a mapping from waveforms to CRI estimates (see Figure 10Figure 10).
  • Page 21: Summary Of Clinical Study

    In the same study, CRI was able to capture the varying risk resulting from patients with different tolerances to total volume loss, by accurately calculating lower values at lower absolute loss volumes for patients with lower tolerance (S. Moulton, et al. 2017). Figure 12 - CRI in patients with different tolerances to total volume loss Summary of Clinical Study Background Information Regarding Use of CRI...
  • Page 22: Clinical Validation Of Cri

    To characterize the relationship of CRI to significant blood loss and to support regulatory clearance, Flashback Technologies conducted a prospective validation study that enrolled 42 healthy volunteers (19 to 36) undergoing stepwise removal and replacement of approximately 20% of total blood volume while in the supine position at rest (non-motion).
  • Page 23 There is no significant effect associated with using CRI estimates from different M1 devices (95% confidence). o Turning an M1 device on and off has no significant effect on CRI estimates (95% confidence). • Linear mixed model analysis with CRI as the outcome and intravascular volume changes as the predictor support the conclusion that CRI trends with changes in intravascular volume.
  • Page 24: Conclusions

    19-36 years under supine, non-motion conditions. Clinical Use Considerations Clinical users of the M1 should understand the basic principles regarding the derivation of the CRI value as well as the strengths and limitations of research conducted to date. As noted above, in normal volunteers under laboratory conditions, CRI was found to correlate closely with changes in intravascular blood volume (up to ~ 20% of blood volume loss).
