Patient training
The Genesis DM monitor begins the process of uploading data as soon as the monitor detects the device.
The audio and text prompts inform the patient that the upload is in progress and then announces when the
data upload is finished.
If the patient fails to turn the peak flow meter on and place it into the cradle, Genesis DM skips peak flow
collection and moves on to the next device. If the Genesis DM has collected all data from all devices, the
monitor concludes the monitoring session.
Once the Genesis DM establishes communication with the peak flow meter, Genesis DM displays and
says:
"Receiving data, please wait; Data upload is finished."
The Genesis DM monitor does not display peak flow meter test results.
For a complete list of prompts, refer to Appendix B
Patient Instructions
Patients should complete all testing and place the peak flow meter in its cradle before the monitoring
session. The patient should then follow the prompts to transmit data.
1.
When the monitor prompts to activate the peak flow, pick up the device and press the button
twice.
2.
The meter turns on and displays a zero with dashes going through it.
3.
Return the peak flow to its cradle. The Genesis DM communicates with the device and downloads
data. During the transmission, data flashes on the peak flow display but test results do not display on
the monitor.
4.
When data collection completes, the monitor prompts for the next programmed device or, if data
collection is complete, concludes the monitoring session.
