Equipment Requirement:

Minimum Required Features and Specifications System Design and Operation

a. Must be an automated fluid management system with both inflow and outflow (suction) regulation for hysteroscopic procedures.

b. Must use SmartFlo™ or equivalent adaptive fluid control technology that automatically adjusts flow to maintain target intrauterine pressure.

c. Must include touchscreen interface for real-time visualization of pressure, inflow/outflow volumes, and fluid deficit.

d. Must display real-time deficit values with visual and audible alerts when approaching safety thresholds.

e. Must provide three selectable suction levels (Low, Medium, High) with the capability for rapid suction performance (up to 4× faster than standard Fluent system).

f. Must allow for automatic balancing between inflow and outflow to maintain consistent cavity distention and visualization.

Pressure and Flow Monitoring

a. Must measure and display intrauterine pressure in mmHg with accuracy within ±5 mmHg.

b. Must regulate fluid inflow to maintain the surgeon-set pressure throughout resection and evacuation phases.

c. Must allow user-defined safety limits for fluid deficit based on patient condition and procedure type.

Integration and Compatibility

d. Must not require custom hardware or external controller interfaces beyond standard operating room power and suction.

Safety and Compliance

a. Must provide visual and audible alarms for over-pressure, high deficit, occlusion, and flow interruptions.

b. Must include a built-in safety shut-off to halt inflow if deficit exceeds the pre-set threshold.

c. Must comply with applicable FDA, IEC, and ISO medical electrical equipment standards.

d. Must support use with sterile saline or electrolyte-based distension media.

Physical and Utility Requirements

a. Portable tabletop or cart-mounted configuration suitable for OR use.
