Welch Allyn Connex Spot Monitor Directions For Use

Enter manual parameters
CAUTION Weight scales attached to this monitor must be running on
battery power (battery type is specified in the weight scale manufacturer's
directions for use). Do not use the weight scale's external power supply.
Note If an approved, battery-powered weight scale is attached to the monitor,
measurements from the weight scale populate fields in the Manual
parameter section. You can adjust weight and height measurements in this
section. BMI will remain the same until you return to the Home screen.
Note Ensure that the current patient ID is correct before saving.
Note Authorized personnel can select and configure Manual parameters with the
online configuration tool. Only five parameter types appear in Manual
parameters.
1. On the Home tab, touch the parameter desired.
2. Using either the keypad or ▲ or ▼, manually enter information for the parameter
chosen.
Note Ensure that the current patient ID is correct before saving.
3. Touch OK on the numeric keypad to capture the parameter that you entered.
4. Touch Next to return to the Home tab.
5. Touch Save to save the data.
Note During intervals, each automatic and manual save of patient measurements
clears all measurements from the Manual parameters frame.
Configuration tool
The configuration tool is a web-based tool on the Welch Allyn website. The configuration
tool enables you to set the device settings for your facility. For more information, visit
the Connex Spot Monitor page on the Welch Allyn website.
Custom scoring
WARNING Risk to patient safety. Custom scores and messages serve as
guides to your facility's protocols; do not substitute custom scores for
patient physiological alarms. Appropriate alarms settings must be set
and maintained to ensure patient safety.
Custom scoring is defined through the Configuration tool on the Welch Allyn web site.
The order in which the custom score parameters are entered in the Configuration tool is
the order in which they will appear in the custom scoring.
Custom scoring enables you to configure specific parameters, based on your institution’s
practice standards, that calculate scores for patient monitoring. These scores generate
messages regarding the patient status, based on the parameters chosen. These
messages are provided only as reminders.
