Overview

The 90478-A digital telemetry receiver module, when used in conjunction with

Spacelabs Medical telemetry transmitters, an Ultraview or PCMS

™

monitor, and

90479-A modular receiver housing, provides continuous monitoring of

electrocardiographic signals in order to detect abnormal cardiac rhythms,

including asystole, ventricular fibrillation, and ventricular tachycardia. In addition,

when used with the 91343 digital telemetry multi-parameter transmitter and the

90217 Ambulatory Blood Pressure (ABP) monitor, monitoring of

electrocardiographic signals is augmented by the availability of continuous or

episodic SpO

measurements and episodic noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP)

measurements.
