Description of device
4.5 Data management
The HeartSave AED automatically records all ECG data and all spoken
communication/environmental sounds using a microphone. In the as-delivered
condition, the microphone on the HeartSave AED / AED-M is always switched on. The
saved data can be displayed with the aid of a PC / Laptop and the software ECG
Viewer. The dat is evaluated purely for administrative or legal purposes and can not be
used for diagnosis or treatment of the patient. In the Software there is a deployment
protocol in which additional patient data can be entered.
Note
The SaveCard supplied with the device is already formatted and can be used straight
away. If you have problems with the existing SaveCard or with a new CF card, you
must format these using the FAT16 file system for use in HeartSave. When formatting,
please ensure that you do not accidentally format on a Windows XP system according
to FAT32.
To attain the highest possible degree of safety here, please proceed as follows:
Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista
Start a command line window using "Start->Run" and in the entry field, enter
"cmd.exe". The command line window will then open. There you enter the following:
format f: /U /FS:FAT /X /V: (where f: stands for the drive letter which you may have
to change).
For Windows 98/ME and older
You can call up the details of the command "format" by entering "format /?".
Operating Instructions
16
The data saved on the SaveCard should be archived externally after every
deployment if possible.
The SaveCard should then be re-formatted if possible (instead of the usual
deletion process).
Once the storage capacity of the SaveCard is exhausted, no further data will
be saved. The HeartSave remains ready for operation even if the memory is
exhausted and even without a SaveCard.
