Patient Telemonitoring Instructions
Indications for Use
The Honeywell HomMed Genesis Touch System is designed to retrospectively monitor vital signs. Vital signs include noninvasive
blood pressure, pulse oximetry, pulse rate, weight and manually entered temperature. The Genesis Touch System collects, displays
and transmits vital signs measurements captured from commercially available wireless medical devices designed for home use.
Collected measurement data from the Genesis Touch System can be transmitted via a communication module to a central viewing
station where the data can be viewed and analyzed by a healthcare professional.
The Genesis Touch System is intended for home use by adult and pediatric patients over twelve years of age or in a healthcare
related environment by healthcare providers.
