Note—
All the barcodes you need to use this remote monitoring facility are on the sheet of barcodes supplied with the modem interface module. The sheet has two sides, one side is called Patient Identification, the other is called Entering Telephone Numbers. This sheet is NOT part of the Series 50 Fetal Monitors Nursing/Midwife Notes package.
The Patient ID: aids in the correct assignment of the transmitted fetal data to a patient’s file by giving each patient a unique (alphanumeric) identity code. This information must be updated for each new patient.
Once this information has been entered successfully, the storage and transmission of fetal trace data can take place.
The Patient Phone: aids in the correct assignment of the transmitted fetal data to the patient’s file. It also enables the receiver to phone the patient’s location and provide or request information. This information must be updated for each new patient. It is not essential, but highly recommended.
The Receiver Phone: provides a destination (receiver location) for the modem to transmit its fetal trace data to. If the receiver telephone number doesn’t change, this information needs to be entered only once.
You must enter the receiver phone number. You should also enter at least either the patient lphone number, or the patient ID.
