Bravo pH Recorder
Description
The Bravo pH recorder is
lightweight and compact. It
fits into a case that comes
with a strap and a belt clip.
Patients wear the recorder
(over the shoulder or
attached to a belt)
throughout the study period.
Backlight
The recorder has a backlit
LCD screen and a row of
symptom buttons. The
backlight turns off
automatically (select the
backlight duration in
Preferences
). Pressing any key turns on the backlight. Only when the backlight is on can
any of the recorder functions be used (for example, menu access for recorder setup, or
symptom buttons for patient use).
Patient Buttons
When the recorder is placed in the case and is in record mode (that is, during a study), the
on/off button and USB port are covered. The patient can use the three symptom buttons
(Chest Pain, Regurgitation, and Heartburn) and the two event buttons (Meals and Supine)
to record events during a study (see Figure 2).
