• Low-level arrhythmia alarms (as set at Acuity System) are
not delivered to mobile devices running Clinician Notifier.
• Short-duration alarms (shorter than the alarm delivery
holdoff variable in WACS Configure Notification page) are
not delivered to mobile devices running Clinician Notifier
• Higher priority alarms that occur when another alarm is
suspended, but the new alarm does not interrupt the
suspend period because it is neither a lethal arrhythmia
nor an apnea alarm.

asserting or suspended

is replaced by another alarm that later ceases. The
original alarm is still active after the popup ceases.
