Atria Electrocardiograph Operating Instructions
70-00082-01 A
Intended Use Under the supervision of a qualified physician trained in ECG interpretation the Atria electrocardiograph can be used to record the electrical activity of the heart for the purpose of correlating the resultant waveforms with the health of the heart muscle tissue structures. This equipment produces a resting 12-lead electrocardiogram which can be used as a first step for assessment of patients with cardiac arrythmias, intraventricular conduction block, pre-excitation syndrome and ischemic heart disease. Records stored and used during the life of the patient can assist physicians in the diagnosis and natural history of heart related illnesses (such as coronary artery disease). This equipment is not designed to produce a definitive interpretation nor exhaustive evaluation of the patient’s heart but rather provide an effective beginning for evaluation of patients with heart abnormalities.
Warnings WARNING
!
Shock hazard. Do not touch the Atria or patient during defibrillation. Otherwise, serious injury or death could result.
WARNING
!
Burn Hazard. Severe burns may result from improper placement of defibrillator paddles. Never position defibrillator paddles close to or over ECG sensors. Remove all chest sensors (V-Leads/ C-Leads) from the patient before defibrillation. Read and follow all defibrillator instructions before attempting defibrillation.
WARNING
!
Operator or Patient Injury. Before performing procedure with the Atria, read and follow all safety procedures.
Caution
!

Interpretive Analysis Program WARNING
!
Misdiagnosis. U.S. Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician. The Atria must only be used by qualified operators and any results interpreted by a qualified diagnostician.
The Atria is available with an optional University of Glasgow interpretive analysis program. Features include: •
Factoring in Age, Gender, and Race More than 500 measurements are factored into each analysis. Criteria for abnormalities include age, race, and gender. Race, for example, is key in identifying hypertrophy and T-wave abnormalities.
•
User-selectable QTc Formulas for diagnosis and pharmaceutical studies To calculate QTc, select from Hodges, Bazett, Fridericia, or Framingham formulas.
•
Retrospective Analysis Support The Atria reanalyzes data after age, gender, race, drug therapy, or clinical classification are changed.
Refer to the ECG Interpretation Criteria Physician’s Guide for complete information.

Using Multiple Electrical Apparatus
Using Multiple Electrical Apparatus WARNING Shock hazard. Connect the Atria only to non-medical equipment compliant with IEC 60950 or 60601-1.
!
In addition, the enclosure leakage current of non-medical equipment connected to the Atria must not exceed 150µA in fault condition. If necessary, use an additional isolating transformer or floating power supply to maintain a proper enclosure leakage current and provide additional protection.
WARNING
!
Patient safety. Non-medical equipment connected to the Atria must not be within the patient’s vicinity: 6 feet (1.83 m) beyond the perimeter of the bed, table, or chair, and 7 1/2 feet (2.29 m) above the floor.
WARNING
!
Misdiagnosis. Electromagnetic interference may cause trace noise or input overload conditions. This may be caused by the presence of strong EMI fields, or generated by RF noise on the line power, or by electronic, surgical, or diathermy instruments in close proximity to the Atria. Position the Atria away from other electrical or electronic equipment, if possible. If used with, or around, other electrical or electronic equipment, always carefully monitor initial readings to verify normal operation. The Atria is compliant with IEC 60601-1-2 EMC immunity requirements. Refer to “EMC Declaration Tables” on pg. 11-10.
To prevent excessive patient leakage current ensure all patient equipment meets certified IEC and ANSI/AAMI medical standards. NOTE: The Atria patient leads are electrically isolated from ground and the device meets IEC and ANSI/AAMI medical standards for leakage current.
Password Protection The Atria uses password protection to restrict administrative and directory access. For more information on enabling and setting the password, see “Password Protection” on pg. 4-1.

Equipment Setup
External Connections Equipotential Ground The Atria Electrocardiograph is considered CLASS II (ungrounded) equipment. The exposed metal on the Atria is not likely to become energized because all the exposed metal is double insulated from the internal live circuitry (i.e., will not become energized under single fault conditions). As a result, it is safer not to connect the exposed metal to the internal chassis or the functional earth of the Atria. This method of protection is recognized by all national and international consensus standards and safety agencies. Since the exposed metal in the Atria cannot become energized by any fault of the internal live circuitry and cannot become energized as a result of differences in the ground potential (because the exposed metal is not connected to ground via any Protective Earth conductor), then there is no reason to provide voltage equalization. Therefore, the equipotential ground contact is not connected to the exposed metal.
Input Power WARNING
!
Patient shock. The Atria must only be used with a medical grade power cord connected to medical grade AC outlet.
WARNING
!
Trip hazard. Route all cables away from main work areas to minimize risk of tripping and injury.
WARNING Shock hazard. Connect the Atria only to non-medical equipment compliant with IEC 60950 or 60601-1.
!
In addition, the enclosure leakage current of non-medical equipment connected to the Atria must not exceed 150µA in fault condition. If necessary, use an additional isolating transformer or floating power supply to maintain a proper enclosure leakage current and provide additional protection.

2 Equipment Setup
WARNING Misdiagnosis. Using unshielded or excessively long cables may cause or increase susceptibility to electromagnetic interference.
!
Always use the shortest possible shielded cables.
Caution
!
Equipment damage. The Atria must be operated only at the line voltage and frequency specified on the external medical grade power supply (part number: 010-1684-00).
The input power cable includes a 3-conductor, medical grade power cable. Using the two power cables supplied, connect line power, in the following order: 1. Connect the external power supply (part number: 010-1684-00) to the External Power Connector (labeled C, below) on the back of the Atria. 2. Connect the AC power cable to the external power supply. 3. Connect the AC power cable to a properly grounded, medical grade wall outlet. Figure 2-1 Back Panel
