VistaPoint 2.1 QuickStart
and Instructions for Use
This guide will help you get started with monitoring
using the VistaPoint™application and the VitalPatch®
biosensor.
The VitalPatch biosensor (referred to as “VitalPatch” in
this document) is an adhesive device worn on the
chest to measure and record vital signs. Refer to the
VitalPatch Instructions for Use (IFU-02 or IFU-06) for
detailed clinical instructions.
The VistaPoint application collects and uploads vital
signs from the VitalPatch and approved third-party
devices to your care team.
VistaPoint runs on the portable VistaTablet™device.
VistaPoint is a software Graphical User Interface
intended for use by healthcare professionals to
display physiological data collected by the Vista
Solution wireless remote monitoring system in home
and healthcare settings. VistaPoint is a secondary,
adjunct patient monitor and is not intended to replace
existing standard-of-care patient monitoring practices.
Refer to the VitalPatch Instructions for Use (IFU-02 or
IFU-06) for additional indications, warnings and
precautions.
VistaPoint Precautions
• Invalid posture data (shown as “?”) indicates a
non-calibrated state where respiration rate, posture,
and fall data are considered invalid.
• Body movements and contact with the VitalPatch
may produce motion artifacts that aect the
displayed, measured values for ECG and heart rate.
• After applying VitalPatch, it may take 45 seconds
for heart rate to stabilize and respiration rate 120
seconds to stabilize. During the stabilization period
VistaPoint will display “--” for those vital signs.
• After applying VitalPatch, it may take several
minutes for skin temperature to register an accurate
value (for VitalPatch with rmware 1.4.0.x).
Contraindications (When not to use)
Do not use the VistaPoint application as a
standalone diagnostic monitor. However, the data
may be applicable for use in diagnosis.

Use the VistaPoint Application
When pairing is complete, you will be shown the
VistaPoint dashboard with vital signs (see gure
above). Do the following, as directed by your care
team:
• Keep the VistaTablet device powered on and
charged (see Section 1 on page 2). Keep the
VistaTablet device near you as much as possible
(less than 30 feet) to ensure constant monitoring.
• Use the dashboard to observe vital signs and
monitor VitalPatch battery life.
• If directed by your care team, take oxygen
saturation, blood pressure, or weight readings (see
Section 12-18).
Verify Correct Display of Vital Signs
After pairing and calibrating, verify that data is owing
from the connected VitalPatch and is displaying on
the dashboard. Ensure that the VitalPatch ID above
the ECG display matches the identier on the
VitalPatch adhesive backing and/or pouch. A
matching ID provides conrmation that the correct
VitalPatch is connected. Additionally, verify that the
posture reected on the dashboard matches the
patient’s current posture.
To refresh the application at any time, swipe from the
top of the screen down.

Using the Optional Adhesive Overlay
to Prevent “VitalPatch Off Body”
If the VitalPatch will be exposed to conditions where
lifting and patch-o may occur, you may apply an
optional adhesive overlay to help keep the VitalPatch
adhered to the skin. See Section 6 on Page 5.
Use only the approved adhesive overlay described in
IFU-09, Adhesive Overlay Instructions for Use. The
use of other adhesives or tape is not recommended
and will prevent proper operation of the VitalPatch
and will void the warranty of the VitalPatch. DO NOT
use the adhesive overlay if the VitalPatch has already
lifted o the skin. The overlay may be used if the
VitalPatch begins to peel up at the edges but has not
lost contact with the skin.
Message: “VitalPatch Off Body”
Indicates that the VitalPatch detects that it was
removed.
• If removal was intentional, tap Disconnect Patch to
end the monitoring session.
• If removal was not intentional, inspect the
VitalPatch for adhesive peel-o or lifting on the
edges. If the adhesive looks intact, press the
VitalPatch down against the skin to re-adhere and
tap Wait for Reconnect.
Successful Reconnection After “VitalPatch Off Body”
If reconnection after “VitalPatch O Body” is
successful, a “Posture Calibration Required” message
will be displayed (see gure below). Tap Calibrate to
begin the posture recalibration process. See Step 5 and
6 beginning on Page 6.
If you do not recalibrate, VistaPoint will not provide
you with respiration rate or posture while out of
calibration. Accuracy of fall detection and body
temperature is also considered invalid. Heart rate and
live ECG will continue to update continuously.
When to Replace VitalPatch After “VitalPatch Off Body”
Replace the VitalPatch if:
• The VitalPatch does not reconnect after several
minutes.
• The “VitalPatch O” message continues.
• The VitalPatch cannot be reapplied by pressing
down to re-adhere.
• The VitalPatch partially or completely falls o the
skin.
