Intended Use
The ApexPro Telemetry System is intended for use under the direct
supervision of a licensed healthcare practitioner. The system is designed
to acquire and monitor physiological data for ambulating patients within
a defined coverage area. The system processes this physiological data to
detect various ECG arrhythmia events and select physiological
parameter limit violations.
The ApexPro Telemetry System is intended to be installed in the hospital
or clinical environment in order to provide clinicians with patient
physiological data, while allowing for patient mobility. These systems
are typically deployed in sub acute care areas in hospitals or clinical sites
where patient mobility can enhance the effectiveness of the medical
procedures administered.
The physiological parameters monitored include ECG, non-invasive
blood pressure and SpO2. The ApexPro Telemetry System is intended to
provide ECG data via Ethernet to the computer platform for processing.
The ApexPro is also intended to provide physiologic data over the Unity
network to clinical information systems for display.
Definitions
The terms danger, warning, and caution are used throughout this
manual to point out hazards and to designate a degree or level or
seriousness. Familiarize yourself with their definitions and significance.
Hazard is defined as a source of potential injury to a person.
DANGER indicates an imminent hazard which, if not avoided, will
result in death or serious injury.
WARNING indicates a potential hazard or unsafe practice which, if not
avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION indicates a potential hazard or unsafe practice which, if not
avoided, could result in minor personal injury or product/property
damage.
NOTE provides application tips or other useful information to assure
that you get the most from your equipment.
