PHYSIOLOGICAL CALCULATIONS (HEMO/OXY/VENT CALCULATIONS)
VF8 DELTA/DELTA XL/KAPPA 16-5
If a value is missing or suspect (for example, artifact), you can enter or modify its
values as follows:
1. Highlight the parameter in question and click. A data entry keypad appears:
2. Click on the digits of the new value.
3. Click on
Accept when you are done. The modified value immediately
appears on the Calculations screen, marked with a pound sign (
#). Modified
values are not written to Main Screen parameter boxes and waveforms, nor
are they trended.
Hemodynamic Parameters
