If the patient develops an allergic reaction or rashes, immediately remove the accessory and inform Mortara Technical Support.   Use with Electro Surgery Devices Warnings  Do not use the S4 while ESU is actively used on a patient. The S4 may not render an ECG while an ESU is being actively used on the connected patient.  ECG Warnings  • Excessive patient movement could interfere with the operation of the system.  • Proper patient preparation is important to proper application of ECG electrodes and operation of the telemetry transmitter.
  7 • ECG electrodes could cause skin irritation; patients should be examined for signs of irritation or inflammation.  • 12-lead ECGs acquired through S4 will normally use a modified lead system with the limb electrodes positioned on the torso.  Although this is a generally accepted practice (e.g., in stress testing), the different electrode positions can cause morphology changes on the ECG, thus influencing their interpretation.  Most frequently seen differences are a vertical and rightward axis shift, minor changes of evidence of old inferior infarction and changes in the T-wave in the limb leads.  It is recommended that you place the electrodes as close as possible to the normal limb positions avoiding the possibility of causing artifact.  The right arm and left arm electrodes should be placed on the clavicles as close as possible to the arms.  The left leg electrode should be placed as close as possible to the left leg without subjecting it to the possibility of motion artifact.  • During periods of lead fail and when a reduced lead set is used for the S4 telemetry transmitter, 12-lead ECG interpretation cannot be reliably used in determining a diagnosis.   

  14  7. ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATABILITY (EMC)  When using the telemetry transmitter, assess the electromagnetic environment affected by surrounding devices.  An electronic device may either generate or receive electromagnetic interference.  Testing for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) has been performed on the telemetry transmitter according to the applicable international standards.   The telemetry transmitter should not be used adjacent to or stacked with other equipment.  If the telemetry transmitter is used in this manner, verify the telemetry transmitter operates in an acceptable manner in the configuration in which it will be used.  Fixed, portable, and mobile radio frequency communications equipment may affect the performance of medical equipment.  See Table X-4 for recommended separation distances between the radio equipment and the telemetry transmitter.  The use of accessories, transducers, and cables other than those specified by Mortara Instrument may result in increased emissions or decreased immunity of the equipment.

  35 11. PATIENT PREPARATION FOR QUALITY ECG  Overview  Quality ECG Data Acquisition  The ECG electrodes sense the electrical signals generated by the electrical activity of the heart as it beats.  The S4 transmitter amplifies the signals so they can be displayed on the screen.    The S4 transmitter is configured to a specific Surveyor Acquisition Module (SAM) and appropriate ECG cable. The 12-Lead SAM uses the LeadForm 12 lead ECG cable.  Obtaining quality ECG data is important in continuous ECG monitoring.  A quality ECG signal depends largely on the patient prep and electrode placement.  Direct contact between the electrodes and the patient's skin and correct placement of the electrode can help ensure obtaining quality ECG data.   A good quality ECG contains: • Discernible P waves, QRS complexes, and T waves. • Good R wave detection. • Steady, even, crisp baseline. • Absent of respiratory variability, artifact, noise, and other interference.  A good quality ECG may enhance the performance of the arrhythmia algorithm and may lessen false erroneous alarm notifications.  A poor quality ECG may be caused by many factors: • Poor site preparation may lead to poor quality ECG data. • Poor electrode application may lead to poor quality ECG data. • Patient movement may lead to poor quality ECG data. • Interference by other equipment in the room may lead to poor quality ECG data. • Poor quality ECG becomes synonymous with artifact and interference in the ECG waveforms.  A poor quality ECG may manifest in several ways: • Superfluous baseline artifact. • Erratic baseline. • Sharp “spikes.” • Rolling, wandering waveforms as seen with patient breathing patterns. • Difficult to discern P waves from atrial fib waves from noise. • Poor R wave detection. • Inability to discern P waves, QRS complexes, T waves.  Artifact and interference in the ECG waveforms may be caused by using accessories, lead wires, and ECG cables other than those specified to work with the S4 telemetry transmitters.  Always use accessories, lead wires, ECG cables, and other accessories specified to work with the S4 telemetry transmitters.
  36  Skin Preparation  In continuous ECG monitoring, the goal of skin preparation is to maximize the surface area of direct contact between the patient’s skin and the ECG electrode.  Follow the facility’s standard of care when preparing the patient’s skin for ECG electrode placement and ECG monitoring.  To prepare the patient’s skin for electrode placement: 1. Explain the procedure to the patient. 2. Maintain patient privacy during skin prep and electrode placement. 3. Locate the correct anatomical landmarks for electrode placement. 4. Clip or shave excess hair in the areas marked for electrode placement. 5. Remove residual skin oils, creams, and lotions by gently abrading the skin with a small gauze pad.  NOTE:  With elderly or frail patients take care to not abrade the skin causing discomfort or bruising.  Clinical discretion should always be used in patient preparation.  Electrode Placement  To apply electrodes: 1. Use pre-gelled, Ag/AgCl disposable electrodes.   a. Do not use electrodes after their expiration date, or if the gel has dried out.  Store electrodes in an air tight container.  Electrodes dry out if not stored properly leading to loss of adhesion and conductivity. b. Always use the same electrodes.  Do not mix electrode brands or types.  Using different types of electrodes may cause a fluctuation in the impedance and this can lead to baseline artifact and noise in the ECG tracing. 2. Apply the electrodes in the following manner: a. Attach the electrode to the ECG lead wires prior to attaching the electrode to the patient’s chest. b. Place the electrode in the properly prepared, correct location by using a circular motion on the electrode adhesive area. c. Gently press the electrode adhesive to the patient’s skin until the entire outer surface of the electrode is adhered to the patient’s chest. d. Once the electrode adhesive is attached, gently press on the gel area to ensure proper gel to chest contact.  Avoid dislodging the gel as the displaced gel can increase baseline artifact and noise in the ECG tracing. e. Test for firm electrode contact by slightly tugging on the electrode to check for adhesion among the entire electrode surface. If the electrode moves freely, change the electrode.  If the electrode does not move easily, a good adhesive contact has been obtained.    Refer to the Electrode Location section in this manual for further details on correct anatomical landmarks for electrode placement.  Best Practice Recommendation:  Change electrodes as per hospital standard of care, or at least every 24 hours to enhance patient skin care and the acquisition of quality ECG data.  Clinical discretion should always be used in patient preparation.
  37 13. PATIENT ELECTRODE HOOK UP Pacemaker Patients  Pacemaker patients may require a modified electrode placement based on the physical location of the patient’s pacemaker generator device.  Do not place an ECG electrode directly over the pacemaker generator as this may lead to artifact and noise on the ECG tracings.   The S4 will reject pacemaker spikes shorter than 300 µs. The S4’s integrated acquisition module will detect and report pacemaker spikes up to 2 ms width and amplitudes specified to meet the appropriate IEC standard. Spikes markers will be placed on the sample where the spike is detected.  Electrode Locations for 12 Lead ECG   • The S4 telemetry transmitter must be configured with the 12 Lead Surveyor Acquisition Module (SAM) and the 12-lead LeadForm ECG cable set.   • The LeadForm patient cable consists of lead wires and connector block that connects to the 12-Lead SAM module attached to the S4 telemetry pack. Each lead wire terminates in a snap connector.   • Before attaching electrodes, review the next section “Quality ECG Data Acquisition” regarding skin preparation and electrode placement. Attach electrodes per these recommendations.   • The lead wires are positioned on the main cable to follow the contour of the torso.   • Insert the ECG connector into the input connector on the 12 Lead SAM of the S4 telemetry pack.

  39 Using the LeadForm 12-lead Cable  The 12 Lead SAM may be used for continuous simultaneous monitoring of 12 vectors of ECG.  Arrhythmia and ST analysis on all 12 ECG leads may be performed by the telemetry transmitter when the AM12 is in use.  Refer to the Arrhythmia and ST sections in this manual for further details.  The following diagram describes the recommended electrode placement for using the AM12 in a continuous monitoring mode.    Figure X:  Electrode Locations: Continuous 12-Lead Monitoring  IEC  AHA  Lead Placement R (red)  RA (white)  Just below the right clavicle. L (yellow)  LA (black)  Just below the left clavicle. N (black)  RL (green)  Lower right edge of the rib cage. F (green)  LL (red)  Lower left edge of the rib cage. C1 (white)  V1 (brown)  4th intercostal space, right sternal border. C2 (yellow)  V2 (yellow)  4th intercostal space, left sternal border. C3 (green)  V3 (green)  Midway between C2/V2 and C4/V4. C4 (brown)  V4 (blue)  5th intercostal space, mid-clavicular line. C5 (black)  V5 (orange)  Left anterior axillary line at C4/V4 level. C6 (purple)  V6 (purple)  Mid-axillary line at C4/V4 and C5/V5 levels.  For accurate V-lead placement and monitoring, it is important to locate the 4th intercostal space.  The 4th intercostal space is determined by first locating the 1st intercostal space.    Because patients vary with respect to body shape, it may be difficult to palpate the 1st intercostal space with accuracy.  Thus, locate the 2nd intercostal space by first palpating the little bony prominence called the Angle of Lewis, where the body of the sternum joins the manubrium.    This rise in the sternum identifies where the second rib is attached, and the space just below it is the 2nd intercostal space.  Palpate and count down the chest until the 4th intercostal space is located.
  40 Checking ECG Electrode and Lead Wire Signal Quality  Once the patient has been properly prepared, the electrodes attached and in the correct anatomical location, the patient ECG cable is connected to the S4 the ECG Display screen display should display the ECG tracing.  Check to ensure the ECG tracing is free of artifact and noise with a clean ECG baseline as per patient condition permits.  If the ECG contains artifact or noise, return to the Hook Up Screen to view lead interface quality and review the steps for proper electrode site preparation and placement.
