The CloudEKG device is a 12 standard leads battery operated unit intended for recording and transmitting standard electrocardiogram signals for cardiac monitoring and diagnosis by healthcare professionals.Recorded signals are processed by the device and transmitted to a PC or hand-held monitoring device wirelessly using Bluetooth technology.The transmitted signals are displayed on the monitoring device to allow for their review, analysis, saving and printing by healthcare professionals.CloudEKG can be 'used in adults and infants weighing less than 22 lbs (10 Kg) but is not appropriate for use to monitor critical patients or perform intracardiac recordings.All measurements obtained with the CloudEKG device should take into account the patient's clinical symptoms and findings to be considered valid and no treatment by drugs or other therapies should be initiated based solely on the measurements obtained with the device.
An assembly of devices designed to continuously measure and wirelessly transmit electrocardiographic (ECG) signals from a patient to a receiving location (e.g., central station, bedside monitor) for viewing. It typically consists of a portable transmitter with antenna and attached sensors (e.g., leads and electrodes) that are connected to the patient, as well as a receiver typically incorporated into a central station or bedside monitor that receives, consolidates, and displays the information. The system is typically used for ambulatory patients who require continuous monitoring (e.g., patients in step-down care areas).
