Using Aulisa GA2000 Digital Vital Sign Monitoring System This chapter describes how to use Aulisa GA2000 Digital Vital Sign Monitoring System (hereinafter referred to as Aulisa GA2000 system). The system includes the following components and accessories*: *The system comes with either two Pediatric or two Adult Oximeter Sensor Cables.
Intended Use The Guardian Angel Rx GA2000 Digital Vital Sign Monitoring System is indicated for use in measuring and displaying functional oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin (SpO ) and pulse rate of adult and pediatric patients. It is indicated for spot-checking and / or continuous monitoring of patients during non-motion and under well-perfused conditions.
Device Overview Oximeter Box The Oximeter box includes a Bluetooth transmitter and a sensor chip, which is worn by the patient for vital sign monitoring. It features a sensor chip, along with electronics for vital sign measuring and analyzing. The Oximeter Box must be used within 10 meters from the Receiver/Transponder.
Page 16
Receiver/Transponder The Receiver/Transponder features Bluetooth/Wi-Fi communication interfaces and an audio/video camera.
