- 15.1 Physician Q&As
- Q: No data from my patient is appearing on the server, but after getting in touch with the patient, they say that they have been taking measurements consistently with no issue and their device is connected to a plugged- in Base Station.
- Q: No size of the CPM Device fits my patient.
- Q: I initiated a patient mode measurement while trying to put the device into Bluetooth pairing mode and now I can’t pair the CPM Device to the Mobile App.
- Q: How do patients get more adhesives when they run out?
- Q: Can the CPM System be used near other electronic or medical equipment such as telephones, televisions, computers, etc.?
- Q: Is data secure when transmitting from the CPM Device to the Mobile App, the Device to the Base Station, or the Base Station to the Cloud platform?
- 15.2 Patient Q&As
- Q: The CPM Device is not lighting up when plugged into the Base Station to charge.
- Q: Nothing happens when I am trying to start a measurement and/or the button is pressed on the CPM Device.
- Q: The device visually does not stick well to my body or is obviously peeling up.
- Q: I lost the clear protective liners for covering the adhesive.
- Q: I pressed the button accidentally/too early and a measurement started before the device was on my body. How do I get the device to stop beeping?
- Q: The CPM Device continues to beep, indicating there are errors, during a measurement.
- Q: Can I shower with the CPM Device or get it wet?
- Q: Can I travel with the CPM System?
- Q: A piece or part broke off the device, base station, or alignment tool.
- Q: What do I do if I think I am having a medical emergency or decompensation event?

Clinician Instructions for Use – Device and Mobile Application
7.1 Taking a Baseline Reading using the CPM Mobile App
1)
Apply the device to the patient as described on page 17: Device Placement and
Location. Press down around all sensors to ensure good contact with the skin.
2)
Select “Take Reading” and then “Start Reading” in the app.
3)
The “pre-screen data check” will now begin. Ensure that the patient is in your desired
First Position. Look at the data to confirm that ECG and impedance are readable. With
headphones, you may also listen to the auscultation sounds for quality. Use noise
cancelling headphones for good heart sound quality.
IMPORTANT
Scroll down to view all the pre-screening data.
4)
When ready, select “Perform Reading” on the bottom right of the screen. This step
determines the tilt that the patient must achieve in Position One for each subsequent
measurement. The patient should have back support (to avoid core muscle
engagement being captured with the device) provided either by a chair, pillows, or a
hand on the small of the back.
5) The device will perform “sweeps” for approximately 10
seconds. During this time, if there is an electrode contact
error, the app will indicate that the CPM Device must be
adjusted. The device will then continue to perform a
reading for approximately one minute, and audio and
visual data will stream through headphones and on the
app screen.
IMPORTANT
DO NOT hit “skip and continue” on contact error dialog boxes until you feel you have
exhausted all other troubleshooting techniques for bad contact. Bad contact flagged by the
CPM System is likely to cause poor data quality and inaccurate web application outputs.
