Patient Demographic Entry
Patient demographic information can be entered before, during or after acquisition. The entered patient ID fields
will remain populated until you acquire the ECG; however, if you turn off the device before exiting the patient
information will be cleared.
In addition to the default patient ID format, RScribe also supports custom ID formats for each group through use of
ELI Link. Refer to the ELI Link Administrator Manual, Part number 9515-166-50-ENG, for instructions on Custom
ID.

ECG, Acquisition, and Storage
on the following
pages. Patient demographics may be entered during ECG collection or after ending ECG acquisition by retrieval of
the STAT ECG from the database.
