nonambulatory patients, including neonate, pediatric and adult patients. These devices
are indicated for ECG, noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP), respiration and SpO

. The most
likely locations for patients to be monitored by these devices are hospital general
medical-surgical, telemetry, and intermediate care floors, hospital emergency
departments, transport, emergency medical services, and other healthcare applications.
The monitors can be used as standalone devices or as devices networked to an Acuity
®
Central Station (referred to in this manual as ‘Acuity’) through wireless communication
over a Welch Allyn
® FlexNet ® network.
Federal USA law restricts this device to sale, distribution, or use by or on the order of a
licensed healthcare professional.
Even though this manual describes some monitoring techniques, the monitor is intended

interpret vital signs.
