4. Instructions for Use
Implanting physicians are required to have completed the Cordella
Pulmonary Artery Sensor System training, which includes didactic and
clinical education material.
4.1 Pre-Procedure Preparation
1. Within the myCordella Patient Management Portal on a separate
computer, download and print the patient’s QR Barcode Report
through the Download Wizard in the patient’s chart (for detailed
instructions, see the myCordella Patient Management Portal Clinician
Manual: PA Pressure).
2. At least 30 minutes before the procedure, transport the CalEQ and
Delivery System box, including a backup Delivery System, to the
catheterization lab (see Transport section). Ensure the CalEQ includes
two Readers and Docking Stations.
3. Plug in the CalEQ power strip to an easily accessible outlet. Ensure
the Readers are in the Docking Stations and the Docking Stations are
plugged into the power strip. Always keep Readers docked when not
in use. The light on the Docking Station will blink while charging and
change to solid when the Reader is fully charged. To turn a Reader on,
press and hold the small button at the base of the Reader for several
seconds.
4. Turn on the CalEQ by pressing the power button on the bottom of the
monitor and sign in as the CalEQ user.
4.2 Pairing and Interrogating the Cordella Sensor
in Packaging
1. Press ‘Calibrate.’ Scan the barcode on
the Delivery System unit box.
2. On the confirmation screen, ensure
there is a green checkmark on the screen.
Press the “Next” button if the information
matches.
3. Undock the Reader when prompted.
While searching for the Sensor, the
Reader will display a solid blue light and
will beep twice every few seconds. Wait
until the CalEQ advances to the searching
screen, holding the Reader away from the
Delivery System packaging.
4. Position the Reader along the top of
the Delivery System box near the location
symbol shown here. Until a signal is
found, reposition the Reader over the top
and side of the box.
5. The CalEQ will search for a signal from
the Sensor. If a signal cannot be found,
DO NOT use the Delivery System. Repeat
the procedure with a new Delivery
System package and contact Customer
Support after the procedure.
6. When prompted to pair to the
patient, remove the scanner and scan the
QR Barcode Report that was printed from
the PMP. If the patient ID does not match,
the PMP barcode report will need to be
reprinted and rescanned.
