Loosen the Mounting Arm

Turn the red knob counterclockwise to loosen the entire mount.
Screw the end of the mounting arm to which the clamp is not attached into the back of the VetGuardian Device.

Attach the clamp to an IV Pole or kennel.

Attach the black clamp to an IV Pole or directly to a cage. Tighten the clamp securely.

Using the Device

In this tutorial, we'll go over the basics of running your first session with VetGuardian. We'll take a tour of the app, learn how to add a patient, configure alarm settings, and more.

Steps

Quis viverra ornare, eros dolor interdum nulla, ut commodo diam libero vitae erat. Aenean faucibus nibh et justo cursus id rutrum lorem imperdiet.

1

Selecting Your Device

Open the VetGuardian Application. Click on the “down arrow” in the top left of the blue menu bar. This is your starting point, where you can view all connected devices. Click on the device you’d like to run a session with. 
2

Adding a Patient

From here, click on the blue “New” button to enter information. Or, if it's a recurring patient, you can simply enter the patient ID into the search box. If the app finds previous patients, they will show up as you type in this box.

In order to run a session on a new patient, we must first enter all their necessary information into the system. It's important to note that VetGuardian will not start a session unless every box is filled out, but once the patient is in the system, we can easily set them up for future sessions by simply searching their patient ID, or by selecting Rerun.
3

Configuring Warning and Alarm Ranges

When you select different species, you’ll see different warning and alarm ranges. The low and high “warning” ranges will notify you when the patient’s vitals are outside the normal range. The low and high alarm ranges will notify you when the patient’s vitals are outside both the normal range “and” warning range.
4

Starting a Session

Clicking on the “Enable video” button on the right side of your screen will turn on the camera. This can be helpful for ensuring the patient is inside the frame so that vitals can be accurately detected.

Clicking on the green “Start” button will begin the session. Once starting a session, wait a few moments for the device to start picking up vital signs. If you'd like to input manual readings such as a manual temperature or respiratory rate, you can add those into the system in the bottom left of the screen.
