NIBP and SpO2 Monitoring

Procedure

RUNNING OTHER DIAGNOSTIC TESTS (NIBP, SpO2 etc.) :
While the ECG is running, other tests can be performed simultaneously. These are available under the "Options" menu.

They are also available under the following function keys:

• F2 performs an NIBP cycle. The resulting Systolic and Diastolic are reported on the screen and to the database if the run is stored

• F6 performs an SpO2 reading. When determined, the results are displayed on the screen and stored to the database when the run is stored

• F8 performs a scale reading. Make sure the scale is on, and the patient is standing on the scale. When determined, the results are displayed on the screen and stored to the database when the run is stored

* Temperature testing to come

Note 1: NIBP and SpO2 can be run without starting ECG

Note 2: these vitals values are available under the "Demographics/Chart" button in the database and are shown in various reports, tables, and graphs (mostly notable in stress reporting)

System Setup Options:
In setup, numerous selections are available: different types of SpO2 devices, continuous operations, NIBP cycle times, NIBP inflation pressure, etc.

Clicking on "Multi Test" offers numerous display formats and automatic options can be selected: all 12- lead ECG with vitals displayed, trend SpO2 (store SpO2 continuously), automatic sequencing, etc.

Clicking on "Limits Alerts" allows the setting of min and max limits.
