Simplified Patient Interface; Speaker Relocated; No Way To See Rate - ZOLL WCD 3100 Training Manual

LifeVest System WCD 3100 Training Manual

Simplified patient interface

The other controls and indicators that were on the alarm module have been
eliminated. For instance, there is no RECORD button, no TRANSMIT button, and
no OK button. These functions are handled in other ways, explained later in this
manual.
The three yellow and red lights for an ARRHYTHMIA, NOISE ALARM, and
WRENCH CODE have been eliminated because they provide no additional
information beyond what's displayed on the monitor.
Patient interaction with the device involves the alarms, the response buttons, and
the display.
Basically this is the extent of the patient's interactions (more about what to teach
patients is contained in section 3):
If you get the vibration alarm or the siren alarm, press the response buttons.
If you get the gong alarm, read the display and take the action indicated.
For the other procedures, they too have been simplified (more details are
contained in section 5):
To manually record the ECG, just press the response buttons.
To send data, just connect the modem. There's no button to press.

Speaker relocated

You'll also notice that the speaker is now in the top of the monitor. By putting it in
the monitor we think it sounds better, clearer, and is easier to understand.

No way to see rate

With the WCD 3000, you could press the response buttons to see the patient's
heart rate. This has been eliminated from the 3100.
