Device Descriptions
The
Philips Telemonitoring Set
consists of a Home Hub or
TeleStation, which serves as the "communications center" of the system,
and devices that measure important healthcare vital signs -- Scale
(weight), Blood Pressure Monitor (blood pressure), Rhythm Strip
Recorder (heart rhythm), Pulse Oximeter (%SpO
2
, pulse rate), Glucose
Meter (glucose level).
Note:
The PTS system provides only a cable for connecting the
patient’s glucose meter to the system.
This section provides a brief description of each of these devices. More
detailed descriptions of how to use each device to make its measurement
are given in the sections that follow.
Home Hub/
TeleStation
You will have either a
Home Hub
or a
TeleStation
, depending on the
home healthcare plan designed for you.
After you take a measurement, such as weight, the Home Hub/
TeleStation receives the result. It then sends the result to your healthcare
provider’s computer when both telephone lines (yours and the
computer’s) are free.
If you pick up your telephone while the Home Hub/TeleStation is
dialing or sending the result, you will not hear a dial tone. Hang up the
phone and wait for 5 seconds. Then make your call. The Home Hub/
TeleStation will send the result when the phone line is open. Your
healthcare provider will call you if your results are not received.
