8.2.2 Setup of the Fully Programmable Load Programs 1-8
Programs 1-8 serve to provide the user with a stress program spectrum that will ac-
commodate the patient groups that are to undergo ergometry. Every parameter in these
eight programs is freely definable and will be upheld by the ergometer unless an alarm
parameter is exceeded or a manual change is made to ergometry by the operator.
In this manual you will find examples of such patient group oriented programs. These
example programs are the same as those that are factory pre-programmed prior to
shipment. Naturally, these programs can also be overwritten and individually adapted
to the wishes and needs of the user.
Program Flow:
Classify the patient as belonging to a particular patient group.
Select the appropriate program (1-8).
If necessary, change circulation alarm parameters
Start program (quiescent blood pressure measurement)
Print-out of resulting data
Load program start at Po
Print-out of the loaded data with every blood pressure measurement
Increment the load according to the pre-programmed
load increments at the pre-programmed intervals
Load program termination (caused by reaching an alarm parameter,
dropping below the minimum RPM rating of 25 RPM or because the „END“ key
was pressed - transition to the recuperation phase
Print-out of measurement results for the on-going
blood pressure measurements
Terminate ergometry by again pressing the „END“ key
Output of the summary protocol
