Preserving the ECG and DA signals when freezing an image or taking a clip
ECG signal indicator
If the signal is weak or you cannot read it on-screen, check to make sure:
• You are holding Kosmos Torso still
•
The patient is not moving
• The connection of leadwires to Kosmos Torso is not loose
Preserving the ECG and DA signals when freezing
an image or taking a clip
You can freeze an image or a take a clip with the ECG and DA waveforms so you
can review them in the Editing screen. What you see in the Imaging screen is
what gets saved, so if you turn off any of the signals while in live imaging mode
and you save an image or clip, only the signals displayed on the screen are saved.
For more information on viewing the ECG and DA signals when reviewing a
saved exam or clip, refer to
Reviewing an Exam
.
Archiving and exporting ECG and DA waveforms
When you archive exams to the PACS server, the ECG and/or DA waveforms are
embedded into the ultrasound image or clip.
When you export exams to a USB drive, the ECG waveform and the DA waveform
and audio signals are embedded into the ultrasound image or clip. However, you
cannot archive or export ECG or DA as a separate file, because the ECG and DA
data is not archived separately; they are all part of the ultrasound image or clip.
