Recording Alarms
The monitor initiates a timed recording for life-threatening alarms and limit violations
provided that:
z
The parameter is being monitored.
z The parameter alarm is enabled.
z The parameter alarm recording is enabled.
z A recorder/printer is available.
Turn parameter alarms and alarm recordings on or off on the
Alarm Limits
or the
Arrhythmia Setup
tables (see the chapters Alarms and Messages and Arrhythmia ).
Alarm recordings have priority over timed, trend, and diagnostic log recordings (e.g.,
if a trend recording is in progress, the monitor immediately cancels it to print the
alarm recording instead).
The monitor cancels an alarm recording if you modify the display, size, or scale of a
waveform during recording. You can also cancel an alarm recording by pressing the
monitor’s Record fixed key or the
Stop
key on the recorder. The monitor alerts you to
a cancelled recording request by briefly displaying the message “ Recording
Cancelled .”
If a cascaded waveform is displayed, the recording prints out only the top waveform.
If a new alarm occurs while an earlier alarm is ready to print or the printing is in
progress, the monitor finishes printing out the first alarm recording and
ignores the
second alarm recording .
NOTE:
z
The monitor prints a recording for life-threatening alarms even if the alarm
recording function is turned off.
z
Continuous recordings have priority over alarm recordings. Alarm recordings
cannot be printed while continuous recordings are already in progress.
z
Neonatal OCRG apnea alarm recordings print 144 seconds of patient data,
consisting of 108 seconds of pre-event data and 36 seconds of post-event data.
