How Trends are Accumulated

For each of the four continuous trends, numerics are sampled every two minutes to a
maximum of 150 samples (up to five hours). When the maximum is reached, the trending
continues but the older data is no longer stored. The readings are displayed in descending
order, most recent first.

The following is programmable: which trend window comes up first. The NIBP trend
window is the factory default.

To clear trend data before connecting a new patient, the monitor power must be cycled. This
will prevent the trend data of a previous patient from being attributed to the new patient.

NIBP Trends

A maximum of 128 NIBP readings are collected (up to 8 hours). NIBP is not measured
continuously like other vital sign parameters. The numerics on this trend are captured at the
time of the NIBP reading.

If an error number (ERR# x) is listed in an NIBP TREND printout or display, it indicates that
an NIBP equipment alert occurred. See page 62 for NIBP alert error numbers and definitions.

Displaying Trends

Displayed trends show the last five hours of data. Trends are displayed if you are at the main
menu and have only one waveform turned on in the wave selection window. Trends are also
displayed when you press the

button in the first Setup Menu.

This symbol indicates that the NIBP reading was taken
in the presence of high motion artifact while monitoring

ECG. Artifact can affect accuracy. To help reduce

artifact, see page 59.

When the SEARCH message appears in an
NIBP TREND display or printout, it indicates

that the monitor was not able to complete an

NIBP measurement during that time period.
