Tango M2 Stress Test Monitor

The Tango M2 Stress Test Monitor gives you the confidence to know that patient movement, mechanical vibration and observer variability won’t interfere with an accurate reading. Your focus can be where it matters most - on your patient.

Whether performing a test using a treadmill, ergometer, or pharmacological stress testing, the Tango M2 reliably monitors blood pressure allowing you to focus on your patient. The Tango M2 was specifically designed to overcome noise, motion and physical difficulties associated with cardiac stress and exercise testing. You can even pair it with a hands-free interface and add the SpO2 measurement option to make the Tango M2 a seamless cardiac testing center.

 

Why choose our Tango M2?

  1. Seamless Integration: Automated communication with your stress system reduces the risk of transcription errors.

  2. Non-Exercise BP Mode: Allows BP measurement during patient set-up and recovery without an ECG signal.

  3. Stat Mode: Rapidly repeated automatic BP measurements for time sensitive and emergent situations.

  4. Color LCD: Improved usability with a new 7" color LCD display.

  5. Verified Measurements: Headphones are optional.

  6. Data Retrieval: Easier troubleshooting with 300 BP reading history and USB capabilities for measurement retrieval.

  7. Field Upgrades: USB port allows for field upgrades, making sure end-users always have the current software.

How do I set up the Tango M2 monitor to work with my stress system? To setup your Tango M2 BP monitor with your stress system, please visit the Tango M2 Interface Notes on the Technical Library page under the Customer Technical Support section of this website. If your stress system is not listed, please contact us.
The Tango M2 displays a Status Message. What does it mean and what do I do? There are 2 places where you can find more information about Status Messages:
  1. See the eLibrary within your Tango M2 for quick troubleshooting tips. You can find the eLibrary under the Main Menu; select Monitor Setup >E-Library >Status Messages.
  2. Look in the Tango M2 User Manual under the Status Messages & Alarms section for details on each Status Message and solution.
  3. You may also click here to watch a useful video tutorial.
The Tango M2 monitor returns a result of 0/0 after blood pressure (BP) measurements. What do I need to do to get a BP reading? There are certain noisy conditions where the Tango M2 cannot accurately measure BP. When the Tango M2 encounters these situations, it returns a reading of 0/0. Microphone placement is critical for reliable operation of the Tango M2; there are many places to find cuff placement help.
  1. See the eLibrary within your Tango M2 for quick cuff placement tutorials. You can find the eLibrary under the Main Menu; select Monitor Setup >E-Library > Tutorials.
  2. Look in the Tango M2 User Manual under the Using Tango M2 during a Stress Test section for details on each type of cuff; the Orbit-K and the Single Patient Use (SPU) kit.
  3. Follow the instructions in the Cuff Tutorial (located on the SunTech Medical website under Support > Product Training & Tutorials) for correct microphone placement.
Can I use a heart rate or blood pressure simulator to test whether the Tango M2 is working correctly with my stress system? You cannot use a heart rate or blood pressure simulator to test whether the Tango M2 is working with your stress system. The Tango M2 monitor requires that the ECG signal and the Korotkoff sounds, collected by the microphone in the cuff, originate from the same source, meaning the patient.
How do I clean the Orbit-K cuff after a stress test? Please refer to the instructions for use.
My Tango M2 displays a message, “Please Verify Calibration” or “Equipment Maintenance and Calibration Required.” What do I do? Verification of Pressure Calibration is required every year to maintain the accuracy of the Tango M2’s BP readings. You will need to contact the SunTech Medical Technical Support for help. In addition, the following items will be needed to verify calibration. Equipment Required:
  1. Calibrated electronic manometer or equivalent.
  2. 500mL volume or the Orbit-K Adult Plus cuff wrapped around something that will not break or crush (no glass).
  3. Hand Inflation Bulb with bleed valve.
  4. Tubing, Tee pieces, and miscellaneous connectors or you can order the T-Tube Kit (SunTech Part # 98-0030-00).
