## Indications for use
EMS-XL is indicated to acquire, filter, digitize, amplify, display and record electrical signals obtained during electrophysiological studies and related procedures conducted in an electrophysiological laboratory. Signal types acquired include ECG signals, direct cardiac signals and pressure recordings. Physiological parameters such as the diastolic, systolic and mean blood pressure, heart rate and cycle length are derived from the signal data, displayed and recorded. The system allows the user to monitor, display and record the signal data. The system allows the user to monitor the acquisition data, review the data, store the data, perform elementary caliper-type measurements of the data, and generate reports on the data. The system may display and record data received from other medical devices typically used during these procedures, such as Ablation RF generators. The system incorporates a stimulator intended to be used for diagnostic cardiac stimulation during electrophysiological testing of the human heart.
