Patient Data
This chapter describes procedures for storing, viewing, and transferring patient data from the
Propaq M to an external system, such as a personal computer or handheld device.
Note:
Before deleting log files from the Propaq M, view the files on a personal computer to
verify that they have been successfully transferred.
Note:
Data transfers will not be successful if the USB flash storage device is full or does not
have sufficient memory available. Always use a USB flash storage device that has at
least 128 MB available.
Warning!
Do not connect non-isolated equipment to the USB port while monitoring a patient.
Storing Data
The Propaq M unit continuously stores information in a full disclosure case log for the patient
being monitored. The Propaq M can maintain up to 150 full disclosure cases that contain
treatment events, trends, ECG and other continuous waveforms, monitoring and event
snapshots, and 12-lead snapshots and analysis. The Propaq M unit can, at a minimum,
concurrently store the following information:
•
32 monitor snapshots
•
500 non-ECG events
•
24 hours of continuous ECG (4 waveforms), Capnography and IBP (3 channels)
The actual information that is stored depends on usage. Also, the specific combination of stored
continuous waveform data depends on how the waveform recording settings are configured in
the Supervisor menu.
Note:
The Propaq M unit retains stored cases even if you turn off or remove the auxiliary
power adapter.
