Monitoring and Measurements
General
• Connect the ECG electrodes, the NIBP cuff, the SpO
2
sensor, the CO
2
sensor, and
the temperature sensor to the patient as required.
• As soon as the sensors are connected, the corresponding indication appears on the
display.
• Check or set the alarm limits (see “Alarms” on page 33).
Caution The guidelines in this section are given as an overview only. They are
not a substitute for, nor do they overrule manufacturer documentation and
instructions or departmental procedures.
Note Values are only displayed when the ECG cable or at least one sensor is
connected. If a sensor is disconnected, a technical alarm is issued. The measured
value will no longer be displayed if the sensor is disconnected and the alarm is
acknowledged.
Note This section gives a general overview of the parameters that can be measured
with the monitor. It is aimed at medical professionals and no specific medical
direction is given or implied; any instructions given here do not overrule local
medical directives.
The individual parameter menu settings are selected with the trim knob,
