To initiate relearn of a patient’s ECG rhythm for arrhythmia and ST-segment
analyses

The relearn operation cannot be undone.

1.

In the patient’s Virtual Monitor, click Setup, Arrhythmia Alarms.

The Arrhythmia Alarms Setup window appears.

If your window appears abbreviated, your system includes the Lethal Arrhythmia
Analysis option (lethal arrhythmia detection, only).

2.

Carefully evaluate the patient’s current rhythm to ensure that you want the Acuity
System to establish it as the patient’s normal ECG rhythm.

3.

Click ST/Arr Relearn or RELEARN.

A RELEARN alert occurs at the patient’s Virtual Monitor and Waveform Window. The
alert remains until relearn is finished.

4.

Carefully evaluate the new ECG rhythm and ST segment to ensure that the Acuity
System has learned an appropriate rhythm. For instructions, see

“Respond to a

RELEARN alert”
