MESI ECG MODULE
WHAT IS IN THE BOX?
12-lead ECG diagnostic module
Model
ECGMD
ECG measurement unit
Pack of 50 single usage electrodes
Patient cable for resting ECG -
snap connectors
Before using the device for the first time, read the user manual carefully and follow
the recommendations here: www.mesimedical.com/support/mTABLET/IFU.

FIRST USE
1. Connect patient cable with module
2. Prepare patient
The patient needs to expose the skin and lie down on examination bed in a supine position.
Make sure the patient is comfortable and relaxed and does not feel cold. The individual should
lie back on a suitably large examination bed with arms and hands extended along the sides of
the body: this will minimize the likelihood of the ECG trace being aected by muscle tremor.
Step 1
Thoroughly clean the areas of the skin where the electrodes will be placed. In some cases, it
may be necessary to shave the hair to provide better electrical contact with the surface.
Step 2
Place electrodes on the patient cable.
Step 3
3. Add/select patient
On your MESI mTABLET UNIT, select
existing patient (1) or add a new one (2).

When the ECG signal is stable you can
begin the recording process by pressing
AUTO for automatic 10s signal acquisition
(1) or MANUAL for up to 5 minutes of ECG
signal capture (2).
6. Perform the measurement
If necessary, it is possible to activate filters
capable of improving the legibility of the
signal without modifying its morphology.
Activation of the filters has an eect on both
the displayed and the printed signal. To
guarantee a correct and accurate analysis,
any automatic interpretation of the trace
is performed always and only on the non-
filtered ECG signal.

WARNINGS
Do not place the electrodes on wounds, as this may cause additional injury.
It must be ensured that neither the patient nor the electrodes (including the neutral electrode) come
into contact with other persons or conducting objects (even if these are earthed).
The MESI mTABLET ECG users must be adequately trained to use the device. Before the first use of
the device, users must carefully read the entire instructions for use and follow the instructions for use
of the connected equipment.
Do not use this unit in areas where there is any danger of explosion or the presence of flammable
gases such as anaesthetic agents.
Protect the device from moisture and liquids and extremely high/low temperatures. Also, protect the
device from mechanical stress and do not expose it to direct sunlight, as this can cause the device to
not function properly.
MESI mTABLET ECG module must not be used in an oxygen-rich environment.
The ECG measurement unit is not intended for use in conjunction with high frequency surgical
equipment.
Portable RF communications equipment including peripherals such as antenna cables and external
antennas should be used no closer than 30 cm (12 inches) to any part of the device including cables
specifed by the manufacturer. Otherwise degradation of the performance of this equipment could
result.
