Overview of Workflow Options

The PageWriter TC cardiographs can communicate over a wireless LAN, Ethernet LAN, or modem with a Philips TraceMaster ECG Management System for an integrated order and ECG management workflow solution. Enabling cardiograph connectivity with a TraceMaster server allows for the direct downloading of pending patient orders to the cardiograph, and for the subsequent uploading back to TraceMaster of the completed orders and associated ECGs for reconciliation, review, and processing. With TraceMaster, you can also enable the Last ECG and interactive query features on the cardiograph so that you can download ECGs directly from a TraceMaster server, allowing for the on-screen review, printing, and comparison of the most recent patient ECG directly at the cardiograph. The cardiograph can also be configured to transmit completed ECGs to any third party (non-Philips) ECG management system using a LAN, wireless LAN, or modem connection, and can be configured to transmit completed ECGs as a fax transmission using the modem. The cardiograph also supports the transmission of completed ECGs as a PDF file directly to any remote networked PC or server.

For more information on purchasing any of the optional cardiograph features described in this document (LAN, wireless LAN, modem/fax, orders), consult your Philips sales representative, or your local dealer or distributor.

The following sections provide an overview of the supported ECG, order, fax, and PDF workflow solutions available on the cardiograph, with references to the applicable configuration instructions.

TraceMaster with OrderVue Workflow

The cardiograph can be configured to communicate with a TraceMaster ECG Management System over a LAN, wireless LAN, or modem connection for a comprehensive bidirectional orders, and ECG workflow management solution. In this workflow option, the TraceMaster ECG Management System server receives orders and, as an option, ADT patient demographic updates to existing orders, directly from a HIS in HL7 format. The system then converts the order into an XML-based order format compatible with the PageWriter TC cardiograph. Orders are then selected from the cardiograph Worklist at the beginning of each patient session. Completed ECGs are then transferred back to the TraceMaster server for review and reconciliation, with billing information transferred directly back to the HIS. For information on configuring connectivity with a TraceMaster ECG Management System with the OrderVue order handling option, see “Configuring TraceMaster ECG Management System Settings” on page 3-1.

NOTE The ADT option available with OrderVue only provides for ADT updates to an existing HL7 patient order received from the HIS.

ECG PDF Export and Remote PC Workflow

Figure 1-1 TraceMaster with OrderVue Workflow

ECG PDF Export and Remote PC Workflow

The cardiograph can be configured to export ECGs as PDF files to any networked remote PC or server using a LAN, or wireless LAN connection. The ECG PDF files may then be viewed in PDF viewer software directly at the remote receiving PC or server. The remote PC or server can also be configured to support the receipt of custom configuration files, or System Log files from the cardiograph, and the remote server can transmit custom configuration files or software update files directly to a cardiographs, accelerating the configuration and software update processes. For more information on configuring PDF Export or Remote PC settings, see “Configuring PDF Export and Remote PC Settings,” on page 5-1.

NOTE The ECG PDF Export and Remote PC workflow does not support the use of modem transmission.

Configuring Network Connectivity

About Network Settings

The PageWriter TC cardiographs communicate with various external servers using a wired or wireless network connection, or a modem connection. In the network configuration settings available on the cardiograph, all TCP/IP settings can be specified based on the needs of your specific clinical environment.

Both automatic IP addressing via DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) and fixed IP address settings are available. The network settings on the cardiograph support TCP/IP protocol using a dynamic IP address or a static IP address, and support a DNS or WINS server.

Ethernet data transmission settings can be set to Auto Negotiation, where the system automatically configures the correct settings for Ethernet speed and mode (half or full duplex), or can be configured with fixed settings, if required.

Network Connection Status Window

Tap the LAN icon or the wireless LAN icon on the Status Bar (top of screen) to view more detailed information about a connection. The Network Connection Status window appears.

About the Refresh Button

The Refresh button available on the Network Connection Status window (Figure 2-1 on page 2-2) or on the Wire Network (LAN) or Wireless Network Setup screens, will (when touched) obtain and display the most recently acquired IP address for the cardiograph. Please note that this button does not provide a release and renew feature that is intended to acquire a new IP address for the cardiograph. To obtain a new IP address for the cardiograph, you must shut down and restart the cardiograph as described in the following procedure.

Obtaining a New IP Address for the Cardiograph

To obtain a new IP address for the cardiograph:

1 Ensure that any active patient data or ECG data has been saved.

NOTE When the cardiograph is shut down, any unsaved patient or ECG data is deleted.

2Press and hold the On/Standby button on the cardiograph for two seconds. The cardiograph shuts down.

3Press the On/Standby button again to restart the cardiograph.

PageWriter TC Cardiograph Network Configuration Guide

Configuring Network Connectivity

About Network Settings

4From the Main screen, touch the Setup button on the toolbar. The Setup main menu appears.

5On the menu, touch the Configure ECG Network Settings button.

6The Wire Network tab is displayed, or to view the IP address set for a wireless connection, touch the Wireless Network tab. Touch the Refresh button next to the Device Address field. The new IP address is displayed in the Device Address field.

Obtaining the IP Address Automatically (Using DHCP)

Touch the Obtain IP Address Automatically button (on the Wire Network or the Wireless Network tab) to retrieve an IP address dynamically from the network. The LAN records the unique MAC (Media Access Control) address of the cardiograph and provides a temporary DHCP IP address. The IP address is obtained each time that the cardiograph is restarted, or is returned to active use after being shut down.

About Auto Negotiation

When obtaining the IP address from the local area network (LAN) dynamically using DHCP, you can specify the Ethernet Adapter settings. The settings are set to Auto Negotiation, where the system automatically configures the correct settings for Ethernet speed and mode (half or full duplex).

NOTE If Auto-Negotiation fails, you may need to lock a specific switch or router port to a fixed setting (for example, 100BaseT Full Duplex) to obtain a connection. For details, see “Configuring Manual Ethernet Settings” on page 2-8.

Specifying IP Address (Fixed IP)

Touch the Specify IP Address button to define a fixed IP address for the cardiograph. Using a fixed IP address allows the cardiograph to be recognized from multiple locations while connected to the LAN, and does not require that the IP be reset in order to be recognized.

Using fixed IP addresses also avoids the problem of having multiple IP addresses assigned to a single cardiograph.

Checking the Cardiograph IP Address

The Device Address field on the Wire Network and Wireless Network tabs displays the current IP address for the cardiograph for each connection type.

If using a dynamic IP address using DHCP (by selecting the Obtain IP Address Automatically option), the IP address is automatically refreshed each time that the cardiograph is fully restarted, or is returned to active use after being shut down.

Configuring Cardiograph Network Settings

To view the IP address for the cardiograph:

1On the Main screen, touch Setup on the toolbar. The Setup main menu appears.

2On the menu, touch the Configure ECG Network Settings button. The Wire Network tab is displayed.

The IP address for the Ethernet (wired) connection is displayed in the Device Address field. Touch the Refresh button to view the most current IP address for the connection.

3To view the IP address set for a wireless connection, touch the Wireless Network tab.

The IP address for the wireless connection is displayed in the Device Address field. Touch the Refresh button to view the most current IP address for the connection.

For information on manually resetting the IP address, see “Obtaining a New IP Address for the Cardiograph” on page 2-2.

Configuring Multiple Cardiographs

When configuring multiple cardiographs with the same networking, TraceMaster, or OrderVue settings, you can save all settings to a USB memory stick as a Network Settings file, and then upload the settings to additional PageWriter TC cardiographs.

NOTES Wireless LAN card settings specified in the Summit WLAN Adapter are saved with the Network Settings file.

You can load the same Network Settings file on all models of the PageWriter TC cardiograph.

Configuring Cardiograph Network Settings

If assistance is required with any of the settings described in this section, please consult your network administrator.

The Network settings are contained on two tabs: Wire Network and Wireless Network. You specify connection settings using the appropriate tab. The selected tab is highlighted in blue.

TIP The blue information box at the bottom of each screen provides help information for all settings. Touch the name of a setting to display help for that item. The selected item is highlighted in blue.
