Adult / pediatric QRS
ST-segment elevation
ECG-artifact simulation
Pacemaker waveforms
ECG Functions
Pacer amplitude and
width
The MPS450 provides complete 3-, 5-, and
12-lead ECG simulation that includes seven
artificial pacemaker conditions. Normal sinus
rhythm is output over a range of heart rates
and voltage amplitudes.
ST-segment elevation is adjustable.
Supraventricular
arrhythmia
Premature arrhythmia
Missed beat
Ventricular arrhythmia
Arrhythmia Functions
Conduction defect
The MPS450 simulates 36 types of
arrhythmias, such as PVCs, tachycardia,
fibrillation, flutter, and asystole. Simulated
conduction defects include first-, second-, and
third-degree heart block; and left- and right-
bundle-branch block.
Square/pulse/triangle/sine
R waveforms
Wave amplitude
ECG-Performance Testing
R-wave rate and width
The MPS450 generates square, pulse,
triangle, sine, and R waveforms for
performance testing. Wave amplitude is
adjustable, as well as R-wave rate and width.
Respiration lead
Baseline (impedance)
Respiration rate
Respiration amplitude
Respiration
Apnea simulation
Calibrated respiration rates are generated
from 15 to 120 BrPM (breaths per minute),
including four respiration-impedance
selections, with two different lead selections
(LA or LL). The output-impedance level is
adjustable to 500, 1000, 1500, or 2000 ohms.
The MPS450 generates apnea pauses (0
BrPM) of 12, 22, and 32 seconds, as well as a
continuous-apnea condition.
BP sensitivity
BP zeroing
Static-pressure levels
Dynamic BP waveforms
BP respiration artifact
Blood Pressure
Swan-Ganz simulation
The MPS450 simulates static and dynamic
invasive pressures, providing complete blood-
pressure simulation. The MPS450 also
provides calibrated static pressures and
dynamic waveforms to simulate signals such
as pulmonary-artery, left- and right-ventricle
and Swan Ganz (RA-RV-PA-PAW) pressures.
