11.7.2 Understanding the PAWP Dialog
• The PAWP dialog supports an expanded PA waveform and up to three (3) other waveforms
(primary ECG lead, PA, and CO
2
/Respiration).
• The waveforms in the PAWP dialog are ordered as follows: ECG lead, ART, PA, and Resp/CO
2
.
• All waveforms in the PAWP dialog scroll at the configured PA sweep speed.
• All waveforms in the PAWP dialog share a common erase bar.
• The ECG waveform is always positioned in the first waveform position in the PAWP dialog.
• When the ART waveform is configured to On in the PAWP Setup dialog, and it is active, the ART
waveform displays in the second waveform position in the PAWP dialog.
• PA is the third waveform in the PAWP dialog.
• Resp/CO
2
is the fourth waveform in the PAWP dialog.
• When currently monitoring CO
2
, the CO
2
waveform is included in the PAWP dialog.
• In the absence of the CO
2
waveform, the Respiration waveform is included in the PAWP dialog.
