Description:
The Nihon-Kohden Life-Scope E7 (BSM-5700) is a patient monitor. The accuracy of its blood pressure measurement technology has yet to be proven to MDR requirements. Blood pressure measurements are taken from the upper arm. It is intended for bedside patient monitoring.
Assessment:
The technology used in the Nihon-Kohden Life-Scope E7 (BSM-5700), to measure blood pressure, has been compared to a clinically validated device, but the results of the equivalence study have not been published and cannot be verified; nor can the protocol be checked for compliance with (EU) 2017/745 and MEDDEV 2.7/1 rev 4.
Recommendations:
| Accuracy Assessment | Recommendation | Basis | |
| BP | Medaval | None | Although equivalence to another device is claimed, this has not been tested to MDR requirements. |
| BP | Japanese Society of Hypertension | Professional use (2024) | Implied equivalence to the Nihon Kohden PVM-2701/Impulse-1 |
