WARNING

As with electronic equipment, Radio Frequency (RF) interference between the cardiograph and any existing RF transmitting or receiving equipment at the installation site, including electrosurgical equipment, should be evaluated carefully and any limitations noted before the equipment is placed in service.

Radio frequency generation from electrosurgical equipment and close proximity transmitters may seriously degrade performance.

Like all electronic devices, this cardiograph is susceptible to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Electrostatic discharge typically occurs when electrostatic energy is transferred to the patient, the electrodes, or the cardiograph. ESD may result in ECG artifact that may appear as narrow spikes on the cardiograph display or on the printed report. When ESD occurs, the cardiograph’s ECG interpretation may be inconsistent with the physician’s interpretation.

Agilent Technologies assumes no liability for failures resulting from RF interference between Agilent medical electronics and any radio frequency generating equipment at levels exceeding those established by applicable standards.

CAUTION

Use of accessories other than those recommended by Agilent Technologies may compromise product performance.

THIS PRODUCT IS NOT INTENDED FOR HOME USE.

IN THE U.S., FEDERAL LAW RESTRICTS THIS DEVICE TO SALE ON OR BY THE ORDER OF A PHYSICIAN.

Medical Device Directive

The M1771A/M1770A PageWriter 200/ 300pi Cardiograph complies with the requirements of the Medical Device Directive 93/42/EEC and carries the

0123 mark accordingly.

This chapter describes to the new user the many features of the PageWriter

 

 

200/300pi cardiograph, patient and operational safety, A/C, and battery

 

 

operation. The user should become familiar with this material, especially the

 

 

safety information, prior to using the cardiograph.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

NOTE

 

See Setting Up Your Cardiograph, for information on checking the voltage

 

 

switch setting, installing the battery, connecting the cables, and loading paper.

 

 

 

 

Each of these tasks must be done prior to operating the cardiograph for the

 

 

first time.

 

 

If accurate ST segment contours are required for ECGs recorded in Manual

 

 

mode, do not use the 0.5 Hz baseline wander filter. This filter suppresses

 

 

baseline wander to the extent that it may alter the ST segment. Instead,

 

 

configure your cardiograph to use the 0.15 Hz or 0.05 Hz baseline wander

 

 

filter. Regardless of the filter used, the rhythm characteristics of the ECG are

 

 

accurately recorded.

Patient and Operational Safety Notes

WARNING

WARNING

Patient and Operational Safety Notes

Your cardiograph isolates all connections to the patient from electrical ground and all other conductive circuits in the cardiograph. This reduces the possibility of hazardous currents passing from the cardiograph through the patient’s heart to ground. To ensure the patient’s safety and your own, observe the following reminders:

λWhen operating your cardiograph from AC power, be sure it and all other electrical equipment connected to or near the patient are effectively grounded.

λUse only grounded power cords (three-wire power cords with grounded plugs). Also make sure the outlet accepts the plug and is grounded. Never adapt a grounded plug to fit an ungrounded outlet by removing the ground prong or ground clip. Should an ungrounded plug adapter be necessary, use a ground strap to connect the equipotential connector at the rear of the instrument to the power source ground.

λThe patient cable should be routed away from power cords and any other electrical equipment. Failure to do so can result in AC power line frequency interference on the ECG trace.

The patient cable supplied with this cardiograph, or an Agilent Technologies approved substitute patient cable, is an integral part of the cardiograph's safety features. Using any other patient cable may compromise defibrillation protection as well as cardiograph performance.

Only qualified personnel may service the cardiograph.

Do not use this cardiograph near flammable anesthetics. It is not intended for use in explosive environments.

Do not touch the patient, patient cable or cardiograph during defibrillation. Death or injury may occur from the electrical shock delivered by the defibrillator.

Be sure that the electrodes or lead wire tips do not come in contact with any other conductive materials, including earth-grounded materials, especially when

WARNING

CAUTION

NOTE

Electromagnetic Compatibility

connecting or disconnecting electrodes to/from a patient.

The use of multiple instruments connected to the same patient may pose a safety

hazard due to the summation of leakage currents from each instrument. Any 1 combination of instruments should be evaluated by local safety personnel before

being put into service.

Do not pull on the paper while a report is being printed. This can cause distortion of the waveform and can lead to potential misdiagnosis.

(#A05 or StressWriter Options only) Equipment connected to the cardiograph’s RS232 connector can cause ground leakage currents exceeding the maximum specified in IEC601-1 safety standards.

Do not connect any equipment to the RS-232 connector during cardiograph operation unless you can verify that the leakage current is within the specified limits.

Do not block the ventilation slots. Lack of ventilation may cause the cardiograph to overheat, resulting in failure of internal electronic components.

The Agilent Technologies warranty is only assured if you use Agilent Technologies approved accessories and replacement parts. See Maintaining the Cardiograph for more information.

Electromagnetic Compatibility

When using the PageWriter 200/300pi, electromagnetic compatibility with surrounding devices should be assessed.

A medical device can either generate or receive electromagnetic interference. Testing for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of the PageWriter 200/300pi cardiograph has been performed according to IEC 601-1-2. This IEC standard has been adopted in Europe as the European Norm (EN 60601-1-2).

This EMC standard describes tests for both emitted and received interference. Emission tests deal with interference generated by the device being tested.

PageWriter 200/300pi M1771A/1770A Cardiograph

1-11

Reducing Electromagnetic Interference

Tests for the 200/300pi cardiographs show they do not emit interference that exceeds the IEC 601-1-2 limits.

Reducing Electromagnetic Interference

The M1770/M1771 PageWriter 200/300pi cardiographs are susceptible to interference from other RF energy sources and continuous, repetitive, power line bursts. Examples of other sources of RF interference are medical devices, cellular products, information technology equipment and radio/television transmission. Should interference be encountered, as demonstrated by artifact on the ECG, attempt to locate the source. Assess:

λIs the interference intermittent or constant?

λDoes the interference occur only in certain locations?

λDoes the interference occur only when in close proximity to certain medical devices?

Once the source is located, attempt to attenuate the EMC coupling path by distancing the cardiograph from the source as much as possible. If assistance is needed, call your local Agilent Technologies service representative.

Restrictions for Use

Artifact on the ECG caused by electromagnetic interference should be evaluated by a physician or physician authorized personnel to determine if it will negatively impact patient diagnosis or treatment.

AC and Battery Operation

The battery must be installed for proper operation of the cardiograph—even if the cardiograph is plugged into AC power, it cannot print an ECG report without the battery. For information about replacing or installing the battery, refer to Setting Up Your Cardiograph.

The following is a list of AC and battery operating information:

λA fully charged battery (without AC power) will print approximately 40 Auto ECGs, or approximately 40 minutes of continuous Manual ECG information.

1-12

Getting Acquainted

NOTE

NOTE

AC and Battery Operation

λThe Low Battery message on the display indicates the battery needs to be charged.

λFrom the time the Low Battery message is first displayed to when

the cardiograph automatically is turned to Standby (off), there is

1

typically enough reserve battery capacity to record two Auto ECGs or

 

2-minutes of Manual ECG data. A weak or faulty battery will reduce

 

this time.

 

λThe flashing Low Battery message indicates that the cardiograph will turn itself off in one minute unless it is plugged into AC power.

λA discharged battery requires at least 5 minutes charging time, with the cardiograph in Standby (off), before printing an Auto ECG.

λA discharged battery requires at least 10 minutes charging time, with the cardiograph in Standby (off), before printing a 1-minute Manual ECG.

If the cardiograph is turned on while the battery is being charged, these charging times are doubled (10 minutes for an Auto ECG and 20 minutes for a 1-minute Manual ECG).

λThe PageWriter 200/300pi cardiograph has a battery-saving feature: it will turn itself to Standby (off) after 30 minutes of instrument inactivity. This prevents the cardiograph from being accidentally left on for extended periods of time.

This feature is not active if all the limb electrodes are connected to a patient or if the cardiograph is plugged into AC power.

λA new battery or a battery that has been stored for an extended period of time requires charging (with the cardiograph in Standby (off)) for 16 hours in order to guarantee a full charge.

λThe battery, if installed, is being charged any time the AC light is on.

λA fully depleted battery will charge to 90% of full capacity in 7 hours, and 100% capacity in 16 hours, as long as the cardiograph is in Standby (off) for the entire time.

λWhen the cardiograph is not in use, it should be connected to AC power and left in Standby (off). This will maintain a full battery charge and prolong battery life.

Preparing the Patient

NOTE

NOTE

Preparing the Patient

For electrode placement information, refer to the diagram on the top of your cardiograph.

Proper patient preparation and electrode placement are the most important elements in producing a high quality ECG trace.

Prepare the patient by performing the following steps.

1.Reassure and relax the patient. A calm and quiet patient produces the best ECGs.

2.Make sure the electrode site is not covered by hair or clothing.

3.Gently clean and abrade the surface of the skin with dry gauze.

4.Place electrodes on patient. See the following notes regarding your type of electrodes.

5.Attach each lead wire to the correct electrode.

6.The upper-left corner of the screen displays the electrodes that are not placed firmly on the patient and/or the lead wires that are not attached securely to the electrodes. (See Table 2-1.) This is an indication of “ leads off”. Correct the attachment of any lead/electrode pair that appears on the screen.

The patient cable should be routed away from power cords and any other electrical equipment. Failure to do so can result in AC line frequency interference on the ECG trace.

Notes for Customers Using Reusable Electrodes

Each electrode must be attached securely. Straps must neither slide nor be so tight as to cause discomfort.

The electrode paste, gel, or creme must cover an area the size of the electrode, but must not extend beyond it, especially on the chest.

Notes for Customer Using Disposable Tab Electrodes

Disposable electrodes have conductive material on the adhesive side only. The electrode tab must be placed between the jaws of the electrode adapter clip, and remain flat. Do not attempt to place the jaws of the electrode adapter so close to the circular part of the electrode that the tab of the electrode is bent, or contact is made with the conductive gel. Gently tug on the electrode adapter to ensure that the electrode adapter is properly placed on the electrode.

Good and accurate placement on the first attempt should be your goal for each electrode. Each time an electrode is lifted off the skin and attached again, the adhesive gel becomes weaker and less effective.

 

 

 

 

 

 

NOTE

 

Never mix reusable and disposable electrodes on the same patient.

Understanding When a Signal is Acquired

 

 

 

Understanding When a Signal is Acquired

 

 

 

 

 

 

Your PageWriter 200/300pi cardiograph attempts to acquire a good signal for

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

an Auto report before you press the

$XWR

key. This is called pre-acquisition.

 

 

 

Pre-acquisition is activated when the cardiograph is turned on and remains

 

 

 

active until an Auto report begins to print. Pre-acquisition is also suspended

 

 

 

whenever an electrode is disconnected.

 

 

 

Pre-acquisition is reactivated when a patient ID is entered or edited, or when a

 

 

 

Manual report is finished printing.

 

 

 

When Pre-acquisition is active, it is important for the patient to stay still and

 

 

 

relaxed. This will help ensure a good signal is captured prior to printing an

 

 

 

Auto report.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

NOTE

 

 

Pre-acquisition is not used for Manual ECG reports.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

NOTE

NOTE

Performing a Stat ECG (Bypassing Patient ID

Entry)

Perform the following step when an ECG is needed quickly.

1.If the cardiograph is not On, press 2Q 6WDQGE\ .

2.Prepare the patient and apply the electrodes.

3.Do one of the following:

A.Press 0DQXDO twice for a Manual ECG report.

B.Press $XWR twice for an Auto ECG report.

Reports printed by following the above steps will use the last patient identification information even if powered off in between. Be sure the patient ID data on the report matches the patient.

Signals seen on the screen can only be captured for an Auto report when Preacquisition is active. See “Understanding When a Signal is Acquired” for more information on Pre-acquisition.

Recording an ECG

Checking Signal Quality

Checking Signal Quality

You can produce better ECGs by previewing the lead traces on the screen before you record and print the ECG. By observing the traces and adjusting the leads accordingly, you can make the best possible ECG recording.

The screen displays the output from the selected three leads whenever the cardiograph is on.

The leads are displayed in five groups of three leads each. The groups are

listed below:

λTo select which three leads to display on the screen, press the or

key, or the 6SDFH bar, to display the next lead group, or press the or key to display the previous lead group.

λBefore you connect the electrodes, each lead displays on the screen as a dotted line, indicating that at least one of the electrodes associated with the lead is not connected. The dotted line is known as a “leads off” trace . Use the leads off labels (see Table 2-1) to determine which leads are off.

λAs you connect the electrodes to the patient, the lead waveforms are displayed on the screen.
