B30 Patient Monitor

Determining pressure values visually
By moving the horizontal cursor across the pressure waveform, you can get accurate pressure
values at selected points. This may be useful, for example, if the patient's breathing pattern is
irregular. The cursor is not available for pressures shown with a combined scale.
1. Press the
Invasive Pressures key.
2. Select Px Setup - Px Cursor.
3. Move the cursor up or down by turning the ComWheel. Every time the cursor is moved,
the time (hours and minutes) and pressure values are displayed on the screen. This way,
you can keep track of the changes made.
4. You can remove the cursor by selecting Remove cursor. Note that if the cursor is not
removed, it remains visible in the Normal Screen.
Labeling channels
The label of the pressure channel sets its display scale, color, filter, alarm source and alarm
limits. The label descriptions are preconfigured.
To change the label:
1. Press the
Invasive Pressures key.
2. Select P1 Setup.
3. Select Label.
The labels are the following:
P1, P2 Standard labels
Art Arterial pressure
CVP Central venous pressure
PA Pulmonary arterial pressure
RAP Right atrial pressure
RVP Right ventricular pressure
LAP Left atrial pressure
ICP First intracranial pressure
ABP Arterial blood pressure
Both Art and ABP labels are available for situations when two arterial lines are desired but you
want to use different settings or alarm labels.
