Merlin@Home Software Model EX2000 v8.2.2 for Merlin@Home Transmitter Models EX1150, EX1150W, EX1100, and EX1100W.
The Merlin@home Transmitters are a component of St. Jude Medicals (SJM) Remote Care System. These Merlin@home transmitters are used to retrieve information from the SJM implantable medical device (IMD) using RF telemetry. The data is then sent back to the Merlin.net Patient Care Network through a built-in modem or, alternatively, through a USB cellular adapter or a USB based Broadband Kit. The transmitted data enables clinicians to remotely monitor a patients IMD using a secure, encrypted, password-protected web site, thus reducing the number of in-clinic visits a patient needs to make to their physician. The transmitter monitors the patients device daily between scheduled follow-ups and can alert a clinician if it detects anything out of the norm. |
