Abstract:
A successful telemetry placement system moves into five medical/surgical areas and two step-down units. The updated equipment included an alarm gateway with an arrhythmia detection system. Telemetry signals are transmitted to a pager worn by nurses; remote display monitors allow nurses to eyeball arrhythmias and reset their alarm without going to a central station.
