This manual is written for clinical professionals. They are expected to have working knowledge of medical procedures and terminology as required for monitoring cardiac patients. Indications for Use The ELI 10 Rx is indicated for use in a clinical setting by qualified medical professionals only for recording ECG data of patients. ...
SECTION 1 System Description The ELI 10 Rx is a 12-lead diagnostic electrocardiograph capable of acquiring, viewing, transmitting, and storing ECG data. Printing function is available through optional external software application. The device is optionally equipped with Mortara Instrument’s VERITAS™ resting ECG interpretation algorithm with age and gender specific criteria.
Page 27
NOTE: Two AC line fuses are installed on your ELI 10 Rx docking station. NOTE: The AC inlet and power cord serve as the AC Mains disconnect for the ELI 10 Rx. To remove AC Mains, disconnect the power cord from the AC inlet.
SECTION 1 ELI 10 Rx Display Overview (8-Lead Real-Time ECG View) Figure 1-3 NOTE: Device display defaults to real-time ECG view. Function Keys Function keys activate the liquid crystal display (LCD) label adjacent to each function key. LCD labels/functions change depending upon the screen displayed. If the label is blank, the adjacent function key is not active. If a function key is not available, make menu selections by using the More key on the keyboard.
SECTION 1 The ELI 10 Rx features a 320 x 240 pixel LCD display for valuable preview of ECG waveform, function-key labels, and other parameters as explained below: Heart rate (HR): When a patient is connected to the electrocardiograph, his/her HR is displayed in real time. The HR is the average ventricular rate measured over the 10-second rhythm on a standard ECG.
Page 30
SECTION 1 DOCKED/AC: “DOCKED/AC” is continuously displayed when the ELI 10 is properly docked in the docking station. This message disappears once the ELI 10 is removed. If the device is not properly docked, “Attention: ELI 10 not properly docked.” is displayed until the error is corrected. DOCKED: When no AC is connected.

Place the ELI 10 Rx into the docking station by sliding the device gently down the guides on the left and right-hand sides of the docking station and the device. The ELI 10 Rx should then seat itself into the adapter at the base of the docking station and fit snuggly into place.
SECTION 2 Setting Time, Date, and LCD Contrast 1. From real-time ECG view, select F6 (More). 2. Using the keyboard, select 3 (Set Time/Date) from the application menu. 3. The preprogrammed date and time is displayed. To make changes, type in the desired date and time values (using a 24-hour clock) in the same format as displayed.
RECORD AN ECG SECTION 3 Section Purpose This section is intended to provide the user with information about: Patient preparation. Patient hookup. Patient demographic entry. Acquiring, viewing, printing, and storing an ECG. Patient Preparation Before attaching the electrodes, assure the patient fully understands the procedure and what to expect. ...
SECTION 3 Patient Hookup Correct electrode placement is important for acquiring a successful ECG. A good minimum-impedance pathway will provide superior noise-free waveforms. Good quality silver-silver chloride (Ag/AgCl) electrodes should be used. TIP: Electrodes should be stored in an air-tight container. Electrodes will dry out if not stored properly which will cause loss of adhesion and conductivity.
Page 37
SECTION 3 For accurate V-lead placement and monitoring, it is important to locate the 4th intercostal space. The 4th intercostal space is determined by first locating the 1st intercostal space. Because patients vary with respect to body shape, it is difficult to palpate the 1st intercostal space with accuracy.

(noise) due to patient activity. If workflow permits patient demographic entry prior to acquisition, connect the patient to the ELI 10 Rx and enter the patient identification information as explained in Patient Demographics. After you complete the last data entry field, select F6 (Done) to return to the real-time ECG view.
Page 41
SECTION 3 Printing The ELI 10 Rx does not have auto-print configuration; an ECG is printed only by returning the device to the docking station following acquisition. A manual printout is possible from acquired ECG view by selecting F4 (Interp) followed by F1 (Print).
NOTE: Telephone transmission is available with GSM/GPRS mobile or internal modem only. NOTE: In order to properly connect to telephone lines, the ELI 10 Rx internal modem needs to be set on the proper country code. This is an internal setting and should not be confused with International calling codes.
Scribe system. The technician at the electrocardiograph selects the desired order code (e.g., a code specific to a department or floor) and the patients belonging to the order list. Once downloaded to the ELI 10 Rx, the ECG list for the selected order code is stored in the device as the order list (similar to the patient directory). As with ECG data transmissions, you can use any of the connectivity options to download the order list.
Custom ID formats are uniquely defined by your facility’s needs. This customized ECG header information is designed in ELI LINK or an E-Scribe system and downloaded to the ELI 10 Rx. Using the keyboard, select 4 (Custom ID Download) from the application menu. “Attempting Network Connection” followed by “Connection”...
