How to start monitoring a new patient

This article explains how to start monitoring a new patient

Step 1: Log in to health.somnofy.com


Step 2: Create a new subject


If the new patient has not been measured with Somnofy or Guardian H10 before, you must first create a new service recipient. If you need a refresher on this, you can take a look at our article here.

 


Scenario 1: The old and new subjects are in the same room

Step 6: Choose the right Subject

Now, you can connect the device with the new subject.

 

Congratulations! You have successfully changed the monitored subject.

 


Scenario 2: The old and new subjects are in different rooms

Step 3: Move the device

If the new patient sleeps in another room, the device must be moved to a new room. If you have to mount a new wall mount, you can get a refresher on how to do this here.

Step 4 (opt): Move the device to the correct zone

If the rooms belong to different zones, these steps need to be done:
  • Under Administration and Devices, find the device you want to use. Click on the device.
  • Under "Device Information" and "Zone", click the down arrow and select the correct zone.
  • If the device is already connected to an (old) subject, a warning that the connection to the service recipient will be removed. Click OK.
  • If you have named the device as the room number, this must be changed under "Information about the unit" and "Name". Name the device the new room number.

Step 5: Choose the right subject

Now, you can connect the device with the new subject.

Step 6: Set maximum distance

If the device has been installed in a new room, it is important that the distance setting is correct. Measure the distance from the device`s head to the end of the bed, and set this distance under "Device Settings" to "Maximum Distance".

 

Congratulations! You have successfully changed the monitored subject.
