Patient monitoring
Required parameters
If a parameter is required, a Skip button appears at the bottom of the parameters, and a
Next button appears in the lower-right corner of the screen. Parameters may require
three types of inputs.
• Numerics
• Drop-down lists
• Parameter option buttons
If you choose not to record information for the parameter, a dialog box appears to
confirm that the parameter is not being recorded.
If you have a required modifier, such as height, weight, or pain, it will take priority over
other defined modifiers.
Once all parameters have been completed or skipped all required parameters, optional
parameters may appear. Once these have been completed or skipped, touching the Next
button returns you to the Home tab.
WARNING Patient injury risk. Many environmental variables, including
patient physiology and clinical application, can affect the accuracy and
performance of the monitor. Therefore, you must verify all vital signs
information, especially NIBP and SpO2, before treating the patient. If there
is any question about the accuracy of a measurement, verify the
measurement using another clinically accepted method.
WARNING Patient injury risk. During defibrillation, keep discharge paddles
away from monitor sensors, and other conductive parts in contact with the
patient.
