10.1-Inch Color Touchscreen

The Contec E18M features a 10.1-inch high-resolution color LCD with 1280 × 800 pixel resolution.

The display supports both touchscreen operation and physical function buttons, providing flexible control during ECG acquisition and review.

Waveform Display Options

The E18M can display:

• 3-lead waveforms
• 6-lead waveforms
• 12-lead waveforms
• 18-lead waveforms

Multiple waveform configurations can therefore be viewed according to the clinical workflow.

Simultaneous 18-Lead ECG Acquisition

The E18M is designed for simultaneous 18-lead signal collection.

It also supports Cabrera-lead waveform display, providing an additional ECG lead presentation option for clinical assessment.

Advanced Digital ECG Filtering

The electrocardiograph incorporates digital filtering designed to reduce various forms of ECG interference.

Supported filtering includes:

• Power-frequency interference filtering
• Baseline-drift filtering
• Electromyogram (EMG) interference filtering
• Low-pass filtering

These functions help produce clearer ECG waveforms for review and recording.

Automatic ECG Measurement & Preliminary Interpretation

The E18M automatically measures routine ECG parameters, including:

• PR interval
• QRS duration
• QT interval
• QTc interval
• P axis
• QRS axis
• T axis

The system also provides preliminary ECG interpretation to assist healthcare professionals in reviewing ECG recordings.

Medical Record Storage

The Contec E18M includes a case database capable of storing at least 4,000 medical records.

This supports:

• ECG case storage
• Record review
• Case database management

The extensive storage capacity can be useful for clinical environments where ECG records need to be retained and reviewed.

Built-In Thermal Printer

The E18M features an integrated thermal printer for ECG recording.

The printer supports:

• Automatic printing formats
• Manual printing formats
• Rhythm-line printing
• Adjustable grid settings

This provides flexibility for printing ECG records according to clinical requirements.

Rechargeable Battery & AC/DC Operation

The E18M supports dual AC/DC power operation and incorporates a rechargeable lithium battery.

According to the supplied specifications, the battery provides:

• Up to 10 hours of standby time
• More than 3 hours of continuous printing

This supports portable and bedside ECG use.
