Introduction 1
1.1.2 Clinical benefit The device is a general-purpose device for interventional imaging supporting diagnostic or therapeutic decisions by medical professionals. The device enables medical professionals to perform angiography- and fluoroscopybased procedures within the intended use. Generic clinical benefits of angiography- and fluoroscopy- based procedures within the intended use are applicable for this device.
1.1.3 Undesireable side effects Deterministic and stochastic effects of exposure to ionizing radiation (X-rays) are part of the physician’s medical education. The necessity of an X-ray examination in relation to these risks must be considered by the physician when prescribing or performing such a type of examination. For radiation emitting products, known deterministic effects of exposure to X-rays are erythema, cataracts, permanent epilation and delayed skin necrosis. For radiation emitting products, known stochastic effects of exposure to X-rays are increased risks of developing cancer and hereditary diseases. These stochastic dose effects have an increased probability of occurrence with increased dose. The related risk can be minimized by means of keeping the X-ray exposure to the necessary minimum and by means of careful and systematic application of protection measures for the operator and the clinical staff. Examinations performed on patients especially sensitive to ionizing radiation (e.g. infants, pregnant women, individuals with certain genetic predispositions and/or diseases characterized by enhanced radiation sensitivity) or to contrast medium (e.g. chronic kidney diseases) need to be planned and performed with special care to minimize the exposure.
1.1.4 Residual risk The Cios Flow is a complex medical device, its functionality requires the seamless and synchronized operation of a high number of hardware and software components, as well as appropriate operating conditions. A safe and effective operation of the Cios Flow requires that it is operated by persons with the necessary specialist knowledge and appropriate knowledge about the system, its intended use, its functions, the conditions and limitations for its usage, periodic maintenance and routine checks which need to be performed, the potential error situations, as well as the corresponding recovery possibilities.

1 Introduction
System functions may be disturbed or completely lost at any time due to component errors, damages like ingress of liquids or collisions, or due to inappropriate operating conditions e.g. with regards to mains power supply, excessive use of the system at maximum load for a prolonged period of time or inappropriate maintenance or service. User or operator behavior like using the system without appropriate care, using the system in combination with devices, accessories, other equipment or pieces of software in a way which is not approved by the manufacturer or cleaning or disinfecting the system not according to the provisions given in the instructions for use may also lead to damages or functional disturbances. Certain materials in the X-ray beam like patient tables may impair the image quality and may lead to a higher radiation exposure. The Cios Flow is designed to comply with regulatory requirements regarding electromagnetic compatibility. It is protected against the electromagnetic influence of external devices and does not disturb the operation of these. However, individual external devices with emissions beyond the allowed levels or even the combined emission of multiple, individually compliant devices may lead to the influence levels considered in designing and testing the Cios Flow being exceeded, and eventually, to functional disturbances. External devices, which are not sufficiently stable against electromagnetic influence may be disturbed by the emissions of the Cios Flow as well. When releasing system movements, the operator’s care is required in order to prevent crushing, collisions with other equipment or collisions with and thus movement of body-penetrating objects like catheters or needles. The Cios Flow manages radiation exposure in order to minimize the radiation dose for the patient, user and staff, while providing the necessary level of imaging performance. The applied dose is measured, tracked and displayed. Warnings are given under defined conditions. In combination with the appropriate care in the clinical workflow and informed decisions considering also the clinical benefit of radiation, the above mechanisms should prevent deterministic dose effects to the patient (erythema, cataracts, permanent epilation and delayed skin necrosis). Nevertheless, such injuries cannot be completely excluded. In rare cases, the dose management mechanisms may be not be operating correctly. These issues are detectable for the user especially within a Quality Assurance framework. Some clinical applications using the Cios Flow involve injecting contrast medium into the patient’s cardiovascular system or other body orifices. Functional disturbances in the Cios Flow may affect the imaging workflow resulting in the additional administration of contrast medium. This may lead to risks and side-effects in accordance with the information provided by the manufacturer.
1.1.5 Physical functionality The Cios Flow X-ray system is a compact and powerful mobile X-ray system with flat detector and digital image processing. The system is equipped with a footswitch and a hand switch for the release of radiation.

User account information The system supports HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) regulation with role based privilege assignment and access control. The security option must be procured to enable user management on application level. Patching strategy Siemens performs vulnerability monitoring of the included third party components (including the operating system). Vulnerabilities are assessed regarding their criticality and safety relevance. In case of critical vulnerabilities the associated hotfixes are distributed within a system service pack. Service packs can be either installed remotely or on site by the trained Siemens service technician - depending on the availability of the remote service infrastructure at the customer's site and on the impact of the service pack. Siemens provides hotfixes on a regular base. Cybersecurity advisories and bulletins for Siemens Healthineers equipment are issued by the Siemens Product CERT (Computer Emergency Response Team). Data recovery It is assumed that Personal Health Information (PHI) is archived to a PACS after patient scan was completed or images/reports are ready after post processing. The system supports backup and restore of system configuration to an external drive. Boundary defense Built in firewall is used to minimize the network attack surface. For optimized protection of sensitive data and operation of the system it must be deployed in a secure network environment, utilizing e.g. network segmentation, client access control and protection against access from public networks. Boundary defenses in the hospital should be multilayered relying on firewalls, proxies, DMZ and network based IDS and IPS. Malware protection Microsoft Device Guard (Windows 10) Controlled access based on the need to know the system supports HIPAA standard with role based privilege assignment and access control. The security option must be procured to support this.
