SECTION 5
Patient Directory
The standard patient directory saves up to 60 ECGs depending on the storage space required for individual
record. The optional expanded memory permits up to 150 ECGs. The heart rate, storage sensitivity, and signal
quality determine the ECG file size and ultimately how much memory is needed to store each record.
To access the directory of stored ECGs, select number 1 from the Application menu and the patient directory
list is displayed.
Application Menu Patient Directory
(sorted by name)
NOTE: In the patient directory list, “ P ” represents the record has been printed, “ X ” represents
the record has a delete status, and “ T ” represents the record has been transmitted.
Management of the ECG record is performed within the directory of stored ECGs. The desired record must
be highlighted in order to view, print, edit or add demographics, and to change delete status.

select a patient name, use the keyboard to enter the first letter(s) of the last name. The letters will be
displayed on the lower left corner of the LCD and the desired name will automatically be highlighted.
An ECG may be listed in the directory but have a “deleted status” (indicated by “X”). The directory saves
those records that have been marked for deletion in the event that you may want to recover the ECG at a
later time. All stored ECGs will remain in the directory until it becomes full, at this time, the ELI 250 will
automatically remove a record, based on its size, in order to make room for the new ECG. Only those records
that have been marked for deletion will be removed. Records are automatically marked for deletion based on
the Delete Rule in the configuration. To manually mark an ECG record for deletion, press
Delet ( F4 ) and an
“X” will appear. To remove the delete status, select F4 again.
NOTE: Only when the directory becomes full, ECGs that are marked for deletion are
automatically removed from the directory based on their record size to make room
necessary for the new ECG record.
TIP: Use the delete rule in the configuration settings to automatically define the ECG delete
status. (See section 3).
NOTE: Record status symbols: X =deleted, P = printed, T=transmitted. When the directory
is sorted by ID and Date status symbols are displayed on the top row of the LCD. If sorted
by Name, symbols are displayed on the right hand column as pictured below.
