TELEMETRY TRANSMITTER (96281) OPERATIONS MANUAL 1-3
I NTRODUCTION
Relationship to Other Systems
The 96281 telemetry transmitter is related only to Spacelabs Healthcare monitoring systems. Data
collected by the transmitter may be interfaced from the monitoring system to a hospital clinical
information system.
The telemetry transmitter is compatible with the list of receivers that follow:
• Digital Telemetry System Receiver (90478) and Receiver Housing (90479-A, 90479-B,
90479-C)
Refer to Patient Monitoring Operations Documents (P/N 084-1101-xx) and to the Spacelabs
Healthcare Service CD (P/N 070-0700-xx) for information relating to the 90478 and 90479 digital
telemetry systems.
The 90478 receiver interacts with the Ultraview SL 91387-38 or 91387-39 central monitor, and with
Ultraview SL patient monitors.
Note:
Not all products are available in all locales. Check with your local Spacelabs Healthcare
representative.
Intended Use
The Spacelabs Healthcare AriaTele Telemetry Transmitter (96281), when used in conjunction with
a Spacelabs Healthcare Ultraview patient monitor and telemetry receiver, provides a means for the
continuous collection and monitoring of electrocardiographic (ECG) signals in order to detect
abnormal cardiac rhythms, including life-threatening events such as high and low heart rates,
asystole and ventricular fibrillati
on. Optionally, on adult patients, additional abnormal cardiac rhythms such as ventricular runs,
tachycardia and ST-segment deviations are detected.
The 96281 also provides a means for continuous collection and monitoring of SpO
2
.
The 96281 provides an optional display intended to allow clinicians a means to view the SpO
2
and
pulse rate at the patient’s side. The display also provides a snapshot view of the ECG to allow the
clinician to view the patient’s ECG rhythm and quality of signal.
The 96281 is intended for use with either adult, pediatric or neonate populations in a healthcare
facility by, or on the order of, a physician. It is not intended for home use.
Indications for Use
The 96281-A and 96281-B telemetry transmitters are indicated for ECG monitoring of adult,
pediatric and neonatal patients. The 96281-C telemetry transmitter is indicated for ECG and SpO
2
monitoring of adult, pediatric and neonate patient populations.
