TIPS

• When taking the first reading in the recovery room, walk through the Take a Home Reading section of the Patient System

Guide with the patient.

• To experience the most benefit from the CardioMEMS™ HF System, it is important that the patient take readings

daily or as instructed by their physician. Taking readings should become part of their daily routine. It should only take

about 2–3 minutes.

• Many patients place the PES on their bed to take their readings.

• Once turned on, the PES takes a few minutes to warm up for use.

• There are three options for connectivity for the PES: cellular, Wi-Fi

connection. There is no cost to the patient for cellular service.

• If the patient does not have cellular coverage in their area, they can use Wi-Fi or landline connectivity. Refer the patient

to the QSG for instructions on how to connect to Wi-Fi or landline in their home.

TROUBLESHOOTING

• If the PES will not connect to the Merlin.net™ PCN when you are trying to pair the unit, take the PES to an outside

window to obtain a stronger cellular connection. If you are still unable to attain connectivity, reference the

Setup-No Wireless Connection Available section of the Hospital Electronics System Guide.

• Have the patient hold the handheld unit with the opposite hand from where their implant is located (i.e., right hand if

sensor is implanted on the left side). This helps to ensure the patient's back, where the sensor is located, is flat against

the pillow.

• To avoid interference during a home reading, instruct the patient to:

– avoid placing the handheld unit directly on their chest during a reading.

– ensure that there are no metal objects near the PES. This could include jewelry, keys, belts, electric heating blankets,

metal bed frame or rails, or other medical equipment such as a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machine,

hearing aid charger or oxygen supply.

• Have the patient take slow deep breaths if they are having trouble getting a strong signal strength. Breathing quickly or

taking really big breaths causes respiratory variability, making it hard for the system to get a strong signal.

• If the volume needs to be adjusted on the PES, select Options on the start screen of the handheld unit. Select Volume

and then toggle up or down to increase or decrease.

Clinic staff can contact Abbott Technical Support for any questions/difficulty taking readings.
