Equivalent in size and weight to a conventional wired patient cable, the WAM™ provides freedom of movement for the clinician while acquiring electrocardiograms.
ECG acquisition can be initiated at the WAM or the electrocardiograph. The WAM offers ON/OFF, 12-lead ECG acquisition, and rhythm printing at the bedside with a simple press of a button. Visual and audible feedback is provided at the WAM.
Maneuvering the electrocardiograph through the doorway to the patient’s bedside is eliminated which is particularly advantageous in critical situations or when the patient is in isolation.
Dedicated and secure communication links the WAM to a single electrocardiograph.
Mortara technology features full diagnostic ECG quality with a high-fidelity acquisition sampling rate of 40,000 samples per second per channel, a benefit for accurate pacemaker detection. Elimination of the cable reduces a source of artifact resulting in high-quality ECG tracings.
Under typical usage, the battery operated WAM can acquire 250 resting ECGs. Advanced power management automatically turns WAM off.
