SECTION 3
ECG Acquisition, Printing, Storage
Acquisition
Once the patient is connected, the ELI 150 Rx continuously collects and displays ECG data; therefore, before
you press
Auto ECG
or
Auto RHY
you should instruct the patient to relax in a supine position to ensure that
the ECG is free from artifact (noise) due to patient activity.
If workflow permits patient demographic entry prior to acquisition, connect the patient to the ELI 150 Rx and
enter the patient identification information as explained in
Patient Demographics.
After you complete the last
data entry field, select
F6
(
Done
) to return to the real-time ECG view.
To acquire an emergency (STAT) or unidentified ECG for a new patient, press the
Auto ECG
key
.
The real-time ECG view is replaced with the patient ID menu. Select
Enter
or
F6
(
Done
) and the ECG is
acquired. “Collecting 10 seconds of data” is displayed on the top of the LCD and “captured, analyzed,
formatted” is displayed on the bottom of the LCD. The real-time ECG view is then replaced with the acquired
ECG view. To add patient demographics, highlight the record from the directory and select
F1
(
ID
).
Examine the display for artifact or baseline drift. Re-prep and replace electrodes if necessary to obtain
satisfactory waveforms. (See
Patient Preparation.
) If a lead fault occurs, square waves appear on the display
for that lead and the lead(s) in fault will display in the upper left corner of the screen one at a time. When the
problem is corrected, the device waits for 10 seconds of good data before analyzing the ECG. Please refer to
the following troubleshooting guide based on Einthoven’s Triangle:
Press the
Auto ECG
key
. The real-time ECG view is then replaced with the acquired ECG view.
The default real-time ECG view is not available in the acquired ECG view for navigation purposes.
NOTE:
New LCD label functions are available in the acquired ECG view.
NOTE:
Functions are not available during acquisition.
NOTE:
Real-time display may also be set to 12 leads by selecting
F2
(
Leads
).
