Labeling invasive blood pressure channels
The invasive blood pressure label determines how
a signal is analyzed and reported. The M540 takes
the pressure labels from the connected pod or
MCable provided the transducers are connected.
When a new label is assigned to a pressure
channel, the M540 clears the parameters and
conditions set for the previous label (including
alarms and waveform scales). It replaces these
values with the settings of the new label. When the
M540 is docked on the M500, all pressure labels
are transferred to the Cockpit.
The following rules apply to labeling pressure
channels:
– If no pressure labels are assigned, the labels
GP1 to GP4 are automatically assigned
depending on how many pressures are
connected.
– The zero value, the date, and time associated
with the pressure channel remain unchanged
even if a new label is assigned.
To assign a pressure label manually
Select the invasive blood pressure parameter
field to select the IBP page directly.
or
1 Select Sensor parameters... from the main
menu bar.
2 Select the IBP tab to access the IBP page.
3 Select the desired IBP tab (labeled GP1, GP2,
GP3, or GP4) along the right side of the IBP
page.
4 Select the button next to Label and choose the
label from the list (see the table on page 311).
NOTE
If the Cockpit displays the generic pressure labels
(GP1, GP2, GP3, GP4), the displays on the
Hemo2 and Hemo4 pods are labeled P1a, P1b,
P1c, P1d.
NOTE
Certain pressure labels have extra selections in
their corresponding Cockpit parameter setup
pages. For example, from the PA page you can
start a wedge pressure and from the ICP page
you can set a minimum scale.
