Introduction

Thank you for using the VitalPoint Home Monitor. The monitor allows your clini- cian to monitor your status while you are at home or in another healthcare facil- ity. The monitor collects vital signs and other information from you and sends

it to your clinician over a phone line. It can check your blood pressure, oxygen saturation, pulse rate, respiration rate, ECG, and temperature, and can be connected to devices such as a digital weight scale, prothrombin time meter, fluid status monitor, and a blood glucose meter. Your clinician can also use the monitor to send you messages reminding you to conduct certain tests or take your medication.

WARNING:

THE VITALPOINT HOME MONITOR IS NOT AN EMERGENCY RESPONSE SYSTEM. THE DEVICE LABELING ADVISES PATIENTS TO CONTACT THEIR CAREGIVER, NURSE, OR DOCTOR; CALL LOCAL EMERGENCY NUMBER AS APPROPRIATE; OR GO TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM WHENEVER THEY FEEL THE NEED TO DO SO. THE VITALPOINT HOME MONITOR DOES NOT ANALYZE PATIENT INFORMATION, NOR DOES IT OFFER MEDICAL ADVICE.
