INTRODUCTION
The LATITUDE Consult™ system provides clinicians a convenient and
secure way to review data from a Boston Scientific implanted device.
Intended Use
The LATITUDE Consult system is intended to read data from a compatible
Boston Scientific implanted device and transfer it to a central server. The
LATITUDE Consult system can provide implanted device data that may be
used as part of the clinical evaluation of the patient.
This literature is intended for use by health care providers of the LATITUDE
Consult Communicator System.
How the System Works
The LATITUDE Consult Communicator is used to read data from a patient's
implanted device via a telemetry wand placed over the patient's device.
Once the data is read, the clinician uses the Communicator to send the
data to the secure LATITUDE Consult server. The clinician then contacts
Boston Scientific to request a review of the data and optionally obtain
reports.
LATITUDE Consult is a trademark of Boston Scientific or its affiliates.
Clinician User Manual - 3
359165-001_US ClinicianManual.book Page 4 Thursday, July 18, 2013 8:23 AM
Contraindications
The LATITUDE Consult Communicator is contraindicated for use with any
implanted device other than a compatible Boston Scientific implanted
device. Not all Boston Scientific implanted devices are compatible with the
LATITUDE Consult system. For contraindications for use related to the
implanted device, refer to the System Guide for the Boston Scientific
implanted device being read.
Warnings
The Communicator is MR (Magnetic Resonance) Unsafe. The
Communicator is MR Unsafe and must remain outside the MRI site Zone III
(and higher) as defined by the American College of Radiology Guidance
Document for Safe MR Practices1. Under no circumstances should the
Communicator be brought into the MRI scanner room, the control room, or
the MRI site Zone III or IV areas.
Precautions
In order to ensure a review by Boston Scientific of the patient’s implanted
device data, the clinician must call LATITUDE Consult Technical Services
at 1-800-CARDIAC (227-3422) after sending the data.
Adverse Effects
None known.
System Limitations
This system is intended for use by health care providers in a health care
facility. As appropriate, clinical care needs to be provided to the patient,
separate from the use of the Communicator.
The LATITUDE Consult system can only read data from an implanted
device and cannot reprogram, command lead tests, or change any
functions of the implanted device. Therefore, LATITUDE Consult
Communicator interrogations are not intended to be used in place of inoffice follow ups that involve programming of the implanted device (e.g.,
changing device settings) or commanding lead tests (e.g., pacing threshold
test). The implanted device can only be programmed with a Programmer/
Recorder/Monitor (PRM).
There are many internal and external factors that can hinder, delay, or
prevent reading and sending implanted device information. These factors
include:

LATITUDE Consult™ Communicator
A key component of the LATITUDE Consult system is the LATITUDE
Consult Communicator. The Communicator is able to read data from an
implanted Boston Scientific device, and then send that data to the
LATITUDE Consult server through a standard analog line. The
Communicator supports pulse and tone analog dialing modes.
The Communicator is a portable device which can be used provided there
is an accessible AC power outlet available. When the Communicator has
completed collecting data from the implantable system, it can be unplugged
without losing data, and used in another location with an accessible analog
line and AC power outlet.
The Communicator is designed to operate on standard analog lines, such
as those used by many fax machines. The Communicator may work on
other telephone systems, such as Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) and Voice
Over IP (VoIP), if those systems provide an analog interface for connecting
the Communicator.
If you have Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) Internet service provided through
your telephone lines, you may need to install a DSL filter between the wall
phone jack and the LATITUDE Communicator.
Due to the size and portability of the Communicator, it is recommended that
it be placed in an area that is secure.
Figure 1 and Table 1 identify the main parts of the Communicator.
