DESCRIPTION
FOR MORE INFORMATION
Alarm limits
Limits display along the right side of the
parameter.
Heart symbol
Flashes with detected QRS signals.
Alarm indicator
Indicates whether alarms are on or silenced.
Absence of indicator means alarms are off.
Heart rate
Device accurately detects and displays heart rates
between 20 and 300 beats per minute (bpm). If
patient’s heart rate is below 20 bpm or above
300 bpm, or pacing is active, dashes (– – –)
appear. If ECG is not active, the SpO
2
or NIBP
monitor can display pulse rate, indicated by PR
(SPO
2
)
or PR (NIBP).
SpO2/SpCO/SpMet
Oxygen saturation level displays as a percentage
from 50 to 100. Saturation below 50% displays
as <50%. A fluctuating bar graph represents the
pulse signal strength. When available and
selected, the SpCO or SpMet value is displayed
as a percent for 10 seconds, and then the SpO
2
area reverts to the SpO
2
reading.
EtCO2
End-tidal CO
2
level displays in mmHg, Vol%, or
kPa. Respiratory rate (RR) displays in breaths per
minute.
IP1/IP2
Displays systolic, diastolic, and mean invasive
pressures in mmHg. Two channels are available;
default labels are P1 and P2.
User-selectable labels include the following:
• ART (arterial pressure)
• PA (pulmonary artery pressure)
• CVP (central venous pressure)
• ICP (intracranial pressure)
• LAP (left atrial pressure)
Temp
Displays
skin, esophageal, rectal, or bladder
temperature.
NIBP
Displays systolic, diastolic, and mean arterial
pressures (MAP) in mmHg, and time to next BP,
when interval is set.
Time
Real or elapsed.
