4. Using Vetcorder
4.1 Prior to Use
Warnings and Cautionary Advice
Use only cables, electrodes, sensors, and other accessories
specified in this manual.
The device has no alarms and will not sound if the
measurement reading is too low or too high.
Before using ECG
Proper electrode placement is required to get accurate ECG
readings. Places where leads attach to the body must be prepared
correctly to ensure the best possible contact. Dogs and cats
usually have enough electrolyte material on their skin and hair so
that merely moistening lead sites with 70% isopropyl alcohol is
9
appropriate. This will usually be sufficient for ECG
recording/monitoring for a short time (30 to 60 minutes),
depending upon the relative humidity. Alcohol may need to be
reapplied during longer procedures. For pets with a dense
undercoat, you may need to use the blue clips that have been
provided to assure the leads have contact with the skin.
Warnings and Cautionary Advice
When connecting external electrodes, make sure that the
connectors are attached to the Pet, to prevent them from
contacting conductive parts or earth.
If using the ECG for long-term monitoring, periodically
inspect the electrode application site to ensure skin quality. If
the skin quality changes, replace the electrodes, or change
the application site.
Do not use this device during defibrillation.
Interference from a non-grounded instrument near the animal
/ patient and electro surgery interference can cause problems
with the waveform.
The QRS algorithm has been tested for accuracy by the QRS
segment data. Inadequate QRS segment levels or distortion
will require heart rate verification by a clinician.
Before using Pulse Oximeter
Before using Daily Check or Pulse Oximeter function, pay
attention to the following points to obtain precise measurements.
The area where the SpO2 sensor is attached must be clean to
ensure proper reading.
Any of the following conditions may cause inaccurate
measurements, including but not limited to:
-Flickering or very bright light
-Poor blood circulation
-Low hemoglobin
-Hypotension, severe vasoconstriction, severe anemia, or
hypothermia
-Injection of intravascular dyes.
The Pulse Oximeter may not work if the Pet has poor

4.2 Daily Check
About Daily Check
Warnings and Cautionary Advice
Before using this function, please read the Section 4.1.
When using Daily Check, please ensure you select the
correct animal.
11
To ensure better tracking of health status, it is strongly
suggested that every Daily Check measurement is made at
the same time period when the body is in the relative same
situation. E.g., every morning or every night.
Daily Check measurement is a function that combines the
measuring of ECG (Electrocardiograph) waveform, HR (heart
rate), Pleth waveform, SpO2 (blood oxygenation) and PI
(Perfusion Index). It takes a 30 second recording and provides a
summary once completed.
When using the Daily Check function with more than one patient,
you can create individual patient profiles. Before using the Daily
Check measurement or reviewing the data, ensure that the correct
patient is selected. Please refer to Section 5.8 to know how to
manage patients (labeled “Pet Management”).
To better manage your patient’s health status, it is recommended

or place the SpO2 sensor in another location.
The Pulse Oximeter measures oxygen saturation of
functional hemoglobin. High levels of dysfunctional
hemoglobin could affect the accuracy of the measurements.
Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations
for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile
radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast towers,
and TV broadcast towers may affect accuracy.
The pleth waveform displayed on the device is normalized.
Warnings and Cautionary Advice
Limit movement as much as possible when using the Daily
Check or Pulse Oximeter. Failure to do so may result in
incorrect reading or analysis.
Do not use the Pulse Oximeter on the same paw/leg when
using a blood pressure cuff or monitor.
Do not use the Pulse Oximeter outside the specified
operating and storage temperature ranges.
DO NOT USE this device during MRI (magnetic resonance
imaging).
Prolonged continuous SpO2 monitoring may increase the
risk of undesirable changes in skin characteristics, such as
irritation, reddening, blistering or burns.
Check the SpO2 sensor application site every 6-8 hours to
determine the positioning of the sensor and the circulation
and skin sensitivity of the animal. Sensitivity varies
depending on medical status or skin condition. For animals
with poor peripheral blood circulation or sensitive skin,
inspect the sensor site more frequently.

4.6 Pulse Oximeter
About Pulse Oximeter
Warnings and Cautionary Advice
Before using this function, please read the Section 4.1.
The Pulse Oximeter measures the amount of oxygen in the blood,
pulse rate and perfusion index. The SpO2 sensor works by
transmitting red and infrared light through the skin to the small
blood vessels or capillaries, reflecting the amount of oxygen in the
blood and displaying the measurement on the screen. The oxygen
saturation (SpO2) is measured and displayed as a percentage of
full capacity. Pulse rate (PR) and perfusion index (PI) will also be
measured and displayed. The Perfusion Index is a relative
assessment of the pulse strength at the monitoring site.

Before using ECG
Proper electrode placement is required to get accurate ECG
readings. Places where leads attach to the body must be prepared
correctly to ensure the best possible contact. Dogs and cats
usually have enough electrolyte material on their skin and hair so
that merely moistening lead sites with 70% isopropyl alcohol is

appropriate. This will usually be sufficient for ECG
recording/monitoring for a short time (30 to 60 minutes),
depending upon the relative humidity. Alcohol may need to be
reapplied during longer procedures. For pets with a dense
undercoat, you may need to use the blue clips that have been
provided to assure the leads have contact with the skin.
Warnings and Cautionary Advice
When connecting external electrodes, make sure that the
connectors are attached to the Pet, to prevent them from
contacting conductive parts or earth.
If using the ECG for long-term monitoring, periodically
inspect the electrode application site to ensure skin quality. If
the skin quality changes, replace the electrodes, or change
the application site.
Do not use this device during defibrillation.
Interference from a non-grounded instrument near the animal
/ patient and electro surgery interference can cause problems
with the waveform.
The QRS algorithm has been tested for accuracy by the QRS
segment data. Inadequate QRS segment levels or distortion
will require heart rate verification by a clinician.
Before using Pulse Oximeter
Before using Daily Check or Pulse Oximeter function, pay
attention to the following points to obtain precise measurements.
The area where the SpO2 sensor is attached must be clean to
ensure proper reading.
Any of the following conditions may cause inaccurate
measurements, including but not limited to:
-Flickering or very bright light
-Poor blood circulation
-Low hemoglobin
-Hypotension, severe vasoconstriction, severe anemia, or
hypothermia
-Injection of intravascular dyes.
