4.2
Recording modes
The clinician may decide to use one, or both, of the two options below, depending on
the software options available:
4.2.1
Manual Recording
The ECG is recorded by the R.Test, for one predetermined length of time, without
analysis or processing, when the patient presses on the manual event button on the
device.
Each recording is obtained according to the pre and post event durations set in the
current program, configurable by the clinician, via the software.
4.2.2
Automatic Recording (with the option of patient activated recordings)
The ECG signal is processed and analysed in real time, and the most significant
pathologies are stored into the memory of the device.
Each recording is obtained according to the criteria and to the pre and post event
durations set in the current program, configurable by the clinician, via the software.
4.3
Operation in manual recording mode
This mode is intended for symptomatic patients, for whom one wishes to carry out a
recording of an event or symptom, even if this symptom is not very frequent.
The patient simply has to press the R.Test recording key and the ECG recording will
then be saved in the unit's memory. This recording is stored, without being analysed
or interpreted, so that the physician can examine it later.
4.4
Operation in automatic recording mode
The R.Test monitors the ECG signal continuously and stores it in a loop memory,
which therefore contains, at any given moment, the previous few minutes of ECG;
this means that a given duration of the ECG preceding a detected event can be
included in the recording. This duration, called the pre-event, can vary from 5
seconds to 5 minutes.
During the detection of an event, R.TEST Evolution 4 will store the ECG corresponding
to the pre-event recording time defined for this type of event and will continue to
memorise the ECG until the end of the post-event recording time defined for this
type of event.
If during post-event, other events are detected, they will be simply marked on the
ECG but the R.Test will not start a new recording (see also § 4.6.3 Multiple Events).
