Single-Lead ECG telemetry data
NOTE
When acquiring Single-Lead ECG data using a 5- or 6-leadwire set, it is not
necessary to connect the V leads or the right leg lead to the transmitter or to the
patient.
The following constraints apply when using Single-Lead ECG telemetry data.
Arrhythmia
WARNING
INCORRECT ALGORITHMS, ARRHYTHMIA PROCESSING
AND CALCULATIONS BASED ON PATIENT AGE — After
manually updating or automatically retrieving patient demographic

entered patient’s date of birth matches the patient’s actual date of
birth. Otherwise the appropriate age-related algorithms, arrhythmia
detection, and calculations will not be applied.
