| [ Summary ] |
The most important point in relation to ECG monitoring is the use of precise alarms. It is important not only to pay attention to the alarms, but also to obtain high-quality ECG signals and implement appropriate alarm settings, adjusted for the individual patient, to prevent the occurrence of alarm errors. In ECG telemetering, sufficient attention must be paid in the troubles with radio waves, because the ECG signal is transmitted by radio waves. Therefore, it is important to have a "wireless channel manager" who can properly control low power medical telemetry in each hospital. It is thought that clinical engineering technologists, who manage medical devices in hospitals, are the optimum choice for wireless channel managers. |
