If the EMR responds that the Patient ID is invalid, then the Patient icon field, field values and X icon will flash six times
and a message will appear in the Patient ID field indicating that the Patient ID entered is not valid.
NOTE: The Patient ID must be validated by the EMR before any vital signs measurements can be sent to the EMR.
Sending Measurements to EMR
Sending measurements to an EMR will work only if your SunTech CT40 has been configured to connect to an EMR.
After scanning a valid Patient ID, and taking vital signs measurements, press the Memory Button
. The EMR
icon
and Check Mark Icon
will start flashing. Press the Selection Knob to send the data to the EMR. If
the measurements are delivered to the EMR successfully, you will see the EMR Message Icon
and the Check
Mark Icon
flash four times.
If the EMR has a problem receiving the measurements, the EMR Message icon
and X icon
will flash eight
times and you will hear 4 short beeps. You will see a message indicating the nature of the problem, such as:
“Rejected” or “Rejected for an error
.
”
This message occurs when the device is connected to the network but the EMR
rejects the message. A corresponding message will appear in the Patient ID field during a three-second period when
the Message Icon
and X icon
flash on and off.
“No response (time out).”
This message occurs when the device is connected to the network but the EMR is not
responding. It also can occur if network connectivity is lost. If there is a network connection, the SunTech CT40 will
continue to try to transmit the message every 10 seconds. A message in the Patient ID field will alert you that another
attempt to send the message will be made in 10 seconds. If network connectivity is lost, you will see a corresponding
message in the Patient ID field, and the device will continue trying to reestablish a connection and send the
measurements at intervals set during EMR setup. If problems persist
, you may wish to contact your facility’s
information technology department.
As a backup, the patient’s measurements are saved in the device memory when
the memory button was pressed, and can be retrieved using the procedure detailed in the beginning of Section 9.
Note: After the memory button is pressed, all values to be stored to memory will flash off and on twice, along with the
check mark icon, memory icon and memory location identifier. After flashing, the display will revert to null values for the
patient ID and all measurement data, and the check mark icon will flash off and on twice more.
