ECG MONITORING
ECG MONITORING
When ECG monitoring, the display shows the ECG waveform across the center; the heart rate, heart rate limits, and
lead selection in the upper left corner; and alarm indications. Also, a heart symbol flashes each time a heartbeat is
detected.
Safety Considerations
Disposable products are intended for single-use only. Do not attempt to re-use these products.
Patient connections are electrically isolated Type CF ⎯⏐♥⏐⎯. For all connections use insulated probes. Don't let
patient connections contact other conductive parts, including earth. See instructions for patient connections in this
manual.
Leakage current is limited internally by this monitor to less than 10 µA. However, always consider additional
leakage current that can be caused by other equipment used on the patient at the same time as this monitor.
Avoid electrosurgery burns at monitoring sites by ensuring proper connection of the electrosurgery return circuit. If
improperly connected, some electrosurgery units might allow energy to return through the electrodes.
Rate meters might continue to count the pacemaker rate during occurrences of cardiac arrest or some arrhythmias.
Do not rely on rate meter alarms. Keep pacemaker patients under close surveillance.
