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.
The need to maneuver the electrocardiograph through the doorway to the patient’s bedside is eliminated; this 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 wireless technology features full diagnostic-quality ECG 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.
