Welch Allyn CP 200 Electrocardiograph

Recording a Stat Auto ECG

A stat Auto ECG is an immediate printout in Auto Report 1 format.

Stat mode bypasses patient data entry, as shown in

Figure 36

on page 56. A temporary ID

number is assigned to the patient to identify stat tests. After printing, you may enter the
patient data by editing the test.

In stat mode, Auto Send and Auto Save are always disabled, even if they are enabled in
the ECG settings. If you want to send or save a stat Auto ECG, you may do so manually
after you print.

The electrocardiograph begins acquiring ECG data. After it has acquired 10 seconds of

2.

Step 7

WARNING To avoid the risk of associating ECG reports with the wrong patients,
each report must identify the patient. If any ECG report does not identify the
patient, write the patient identification information on the report immediately
following the ECG test.

Note

Write the patient identification information on the printed report immediately after
the ECG test to avoid associating the ECG report with the wrong patient.

ECG report Print Copy feature will not be available if no Patient Name or ID are
