ANS2000

Product catalog summary

Overview: The ANS2000 is a handheld ECG Monitor/Respiration Pacer unit designed for measuring R-R interval variations and conducting Valsalva tests. It connects to a PC via a serial cable and uses ANS Reader software for data analysis.

Specifications:

Battery: Requires one 9 Volt Alkaline battery with automatic shut-off after 8 minutes.
Input: Standard ECG 3-lead configuration with 24-inch lead wires.
Pacer Rate: Five respiration cycles per minute.
Cable: 10-foot long DB9 serial cable.
Size and Weight: 19 cm x 10 cm x 3.3 cm, weighing 300 grams.
Computer Requirements: IBM compatible PC with Windows 95 or later and one available serial port.

Procedures:

RR-Variation Test: Measures beat-to-beat heart rate variation with respiration. The test lasts six minutes, and the patient follows a respiration pacer.
Valsalva Test: Consists of Pre-blow, Blow, and Post-blow phases. The patient blows into a manometer at 40 mmHg for 20 seconds. The test lasts two minutes.

Data Analysis:

Data from tests is displayed and editable on-screen. Users can insert or delete R-wave marks as needed.
Reports include R-R Interval and Valsalva data with analyses such as Mean Circular Resultant and Cross-Correlation Statistics.
Data is saved individually, and original files remain unaltered. Multiple edits can be combined into one report.

Reports:

Color reports are printed in an easy-to-read format.
Referral Reports provide results indicating if test outcomes fall within normal, age-adjusted ranges.

Data from the RR-Variation and Valsalva tests is easy to view and edit on screen. Data is analyzed by the ANS Reader software. ANS2000 performs two simple tests of cardiac autonomic nervous function: All ECG data is displayed and the user can scroll through the complete test to view each heart beat. If an R-wave was missed by the Reader software the user can insert a mark at the appropriate point. Alternatively, if the software mistakes an irregular signal as an R-wave, the mark can be deleted. A histogram of R-R Intervals and an Automatic Find feature makes it easy to find and edit unusual data....
