Safety and Reliability 3 Safety and Reliability Definitions The terms “warning” and “caution” are used throughout this manual to point out hazards and to designate a degree or level of serious- ness. Familiarize yourself with their definitions and significance. Hazard is defined as a source of potential injury to a person. WARNING indicates a potential hazard or unsafe practice which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
Safety and Reliability General Warnings WARNING MIXING UP RECORDINGS – The patient’s life or health may be put at risk if the patient is assigned a different patient’s ECG recording thus resulting in an incorrectly assigned diagnosis. Take special care to always select the correct examination and the correct patient.

Safety and Reliability WARNING NOT A MONITORING DEVICE – The PhysioMem PM 100 is not a mon- itoring device and is not intended for monitoring the clinical condi- tion of a patient. Do NOT use the PhysioMem PM 100 as a monitoring device. WARNING EXPLOSION HAZARD –...
Safety and Reliability WARNING HOUSEHOLD PETS AND VERMIN - Household pets and vermin may pose a risk to patient safety. Protect the device and accessories against contact with household pets, pests and children, as they could cause safety related damage to it, e.g., by biting it, letting it drop, exposing it to fluids or dirt.
Safety and Reliability CAUTION Protect the device against mechanical damage by shocks, pressure and scratches. Otherwise, the correct functioning of the device can no longer be guaranteed. CAUTION Do not use the device if it has been damaged or has malfunctions. CAUTION In order to avoid a wrong assigning of ECG data, keep the device pro- tected against unauthorized access by third persons.
CAUTION Repairs must be carried out only by persons authorized by GETEMED. If you find or even suspect a malfunction, send the device for testing to GETEMED or a facility authorized by GETEMED. Please add a detailed description of the observed malfunction.
Use cleaning and disinfection agents only in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Make sure to use the correct dilution factor. GETEMED recommends disinfecting the device with a 70% alcohol solution. CAUTION Do not use solvents such as ether, acetone, or petroleum ether;...

Control Elements, Putting into Operation NOTE If the battery power is too low for using the device, this is indicated in the display (Fig. 11) when a recording is started. Fig. 11. Indication of insufficient battery power PhysioMem PM 100 2G 77811011 ®...
Recording and sending an ECG 5 Recording and sending an ECG How and where you apply the device Fig. 12. Recorder on the patient’s chest The ECG electrodes are integrated like little feet in the back of the device. To record an ECG, put the device directly on your chest. The correct position of the device is mid sternum (Fig.
Recording and sending an ECG Fig. 13. How to adjust the neck lanyard Recording an ECG During recording, hold the device steady and press the four electrodes firmly on the chest (Fig. 14). Then press the button (1) to start the recording. Fig.
Page 27
Recording and sending an ECG NOTE An irregular beep during recording does not necessarily indicate a cardiac arrhythmia. In most cases, a technical error has occurred during the recording (artefacts). NOTE When the beep fails during recording correct the position of the device and press it more firmly on the chest.
Recording and sending an ECG Sending an ECG Recording NOTE The device uses public telecommunication networks to transmit data. Interruptions are possible depending on the network coverage, availability of the services and line quality. Therefore, it cannot be guaranteed that the transmission is always successful. After recording, the device automatically switches to sending mode and in the display, the number of recordings not yet sent is shown together with a progress indication (Fig.

Recording and sending an ECG NOTE The transmission process cannot be repeated manually. NOTE You can start a new recording anytime during transmission. In this case, the transmission is interrupted. The ECG recording stays stored until the next transmission. Switching off the Device To switch off the device, press the button (1) for longer than 10 seconds and hold it until the device switches off and the display goes blank.
The System of PhysioMem and ReSTA 6 The System of PhysioMem and ReSTA Overview ReSTA is a server-based software for receiving and transmitting vital signs data (ECG). Fig. 18. Path of data transfer (1) Patient (2) Measurement (3) Transmission (4) Email (5) Physician/Hospital (6) Analysis ReSTA receives the data sent by the PhysioMem PM 100 via a mobile...
The System of PhysioMem and ReSTA CAUTION The attending physician as receiver of an ECG has to ensure that these ECG data are assigned correctly to a patient. During the entire transmission process, no patient-related data are used. It is in a medical facility that the ECG recording is assigned to a patient by healthcare professionals.
Page 33
The System of PhysioMem and ReSTA The heart rate in beats per minute [bpm] is continuously calculated from the time that elapses between two consecutive beats. Averag- ing is not used for the calculation. The device is not indicated to de- tect Pauses automatically.
