WARNING
INCORRECT ALGORITHMS, ARRHYTHMIA PROCESSING
AND CALCULATIONS BASED ON PATIENT AGE — After
manually updating or automatically retrieving patient demographic
information from a network database, always confirm that the
entered patient's date of birth matches the patient's actual date of
birth. Otherwise the appropriate age-related algorithms, arrhythmia
detection, and calculations will not be applied.
CAUTION
BEDSIDE MONITOR ECG COMPATIBILITY— The minimum
software version of the following GE bedside monitors are required
for ECG monitoring in Rover or Rover Combo modes:
Dash 3000/4000 patient monitor v2B or later
Dash 5000 patient monitor v6 or later
Eagle 4000 patient monitor v5B or later
Solar 7000 patient monitor v6 or later
Solar 8000i patient monitor v4F or later
Solar 8000M patient monitor v3D
Tram critical care monitor (Tramscope) v7D or later
Monitoring other parameters is not compatible. Erroneous patient
data may result.
NOTE
When the monitor is set for Combo mode, the second V lead can not be viewed
or manipulated.
NOTE
Users should be aware of a possible time discrepancy between the waveforms
from the telemetry device and the waveforms hard-wired to the display device.
Users should not consider these waveforms to be synchronous. If absolute
synchronicity is desired, Combo mode should be discontinued and the ECG
waveforms should be acquired via the hard-wired bedside device.
ApexPro system patient data can be viewed on most GE patient monitors. The
monitor and the ApexPro system must be connected to the same Unity network. The
telemetry patient can be viewed on the bedside monitor using the monitor split screen
view.
To obtain an ECG source from telemetry, the source must be set to telemetry on the
bedside monitor while in either Combo or Rover Combo monitoring mode. Contact
your biomedical/service department for configuration.
Refer to the appropriate monitor's operator's manual for more information. Contact
your sales/service representative if you have questions regarding compatibility.
