## Indications for use
The device is comprised of transmitters and a receiver communicated via WMTS radio frequency. The series of device are intended to monitor, display and record physiological data to provide cardiac and vital signs monitoring within a medical facility. The device is intended to produce a visual record of the electrical signals produced by the heart and monitor the electrocardiogram to generate audible and/or visible alarms when an arrhythmia exists. The device is also intended to monitor patients' physiological data including heart rate, pulse rate, blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP), body temperature respiratory rate and apnea. The device may generate an audible and/or visual alarm when a measured rate falls outside preset limits. This device receives physiological signals via radio frequency from the transmitters. The device has the capability of communicating with external devices, such as personal computers. Vital sign data can be sent to a central monitor through the network via network card. The device will be available for use by medical personnel on patients within a medical facility including adults, children and infants.
