New Hand-Held Electrocardiograph

By HospiMedica staff writers
Posted on 20 Nov 2000
A new hand-held electrocardiograph (ECG) that is smaller and weighs less than a laptop computer is designed for use in clinics, doctors' offices, and on housecoats--anywhere the clinicians needs 12-lead ECG data and immediate pre- and post-viewing of waveforms.

Called PageWriter 10/10i, the device is from Alight Technologies (Palo Alto, CA, USA; www.agilent.com). More...
PageWriter stores up to 30 ECG waveforms for retrieval, and an infrared adapter provides a wireless connection to any compatible external printer. A clinician can produce ECG reports in six different formats, and can transmit ECG reports through fax modem or to a PC with Agilent's ECG manager software.

Alight says PageWriter 10/10i is a cost-effective solution for many treatment settings. Its one-button design, optional interpretation, and auto and rhythm modes make it versatile and simple to operate. With the PageWriter 10/10i, we have fully integrated Agilent's time-tested ECG technology into a cost-effective device that fits into a clinician's hand,” says Jim Polewaczyk, marketing and operations manager of Agilent's Cardiology Division.
