Recording an Auto ECG
An Auto ECG is a report typically showing a 10-second acquisition of 12 leads of ECG
information combined with patient data, interpretation, and measurements matrix. Two
user-defined formats are available: Auto Report 1 or Auto Report 2. To learn how to set up
the Auto ECG report format, see “About Auto ECG Reports” in the Directions for Use.
As shown in the following diagram, there are the two types of Auto ECG: normal and stat.
For details, see these procedures:
