Introducing IntelliVue Telemetry
IntelliVue Telemetry System
The IntelliVue Telemetry System with Smart-Hopping Technology uses cellular
architecture to provide two-way communication between transceivers and the
IntelliVue Information Center. Smart-hopping technology dodges interference
and seeks out the strongest available signal to achieve seamless connections
wherever patients roam on the clinical network. The system connects a number
of individual devices to form a complete method of transporting patient data to a
central repository for subsequent distribution to clinical staff. Full patient
mobility is available within the areas defined by the wireless coverage of the
multiple Access Points.
Bi-
directional
Capability
Telemetry transmits the patient’s measurements using radio waves. The signals
obtained from the patient travel from the transceiver to an access point in the
ceiling or wall and then to the Information Center. Bi-directional capability
enables you to remotely control certain transceiver functions from the
Information Center. Physiological data is transported from the transceiver, and a
reverse data channel enables data to be transported to the transceiver. Bi-
directional operations include the following:
•
Change SpO
2
measurement mode, or turn SpO
2
measurement off.
•
Enable or disable display of the pleth wave.
•
Adjust the transceiver volume, or turn it off.
•
Find Device feature for locating a lost transceiver within the coverage
area.
•
Suppress SpO
2
technical alarms (INOPS) during NBP measurement.
•
Return from Standby mode after a patient is away from the unit and not
being monitored by the IntelliVue Telemetry System.
•
Configurable Alarm Pause/Suspend time initiated at the transceiver as
well as the Information Center.
•
Transceiver location information displayed at the Information Center.
•
Transceiver out of area notification at the Information Center.
