1.
To re-initiate an alarms off with reason condition, select the alarms off reason in
the telemetry patient’s
Alarm Control
tab sheet.
2.
To re-initiate an alarm pause from the transmitter, press both transmitter buttons
simultaneously twice.
NOTE
The transmitter buttons must be pressed once to end the alarm pause at the
transmitter, then a second time to start a new alarm pause at the transmitter
(see below).
The
Pause Alarm
LED on the transmitter continues to flash after an
Alarm Pause
Breakthrough
occurs. This is because there is no communication from the CIC Pro
center back to the transmitter to indicate that the alarm pause has ended.
After an
Alarm Pause Breakthrough
occurs, you can turn off the flashing
Pause
Alarm
LED by pressing both transmitter buttons simultaneously.
Silencing alarms
Temporarily silencing alarms from the CIC Pro center
WARNING
Do
not
continuously try to silence audible alarms. You may
inadvertently silence new patient alarms.
Once you are notified of an alarm condition, you can silence audible alarms from the
CIC Pro center for one minute by clicking the
Silence Alarms
button located on the
display screen or by pressing the
Silence Alarms
key located on the keyboard.
This sends a silence notification to the bedside monitor. For most GE monitors, this
silence notification will silence the alarms for up to one minute. However, the viewed
bedside monitors must be configured to allow bedside alarms to be silenced from the
CIC Pro center.
NOTE
The following conditions apply when you silence alarms at the CIC Pro center:
The alarms remain silent for one minute unless a new patient alarm
condition occurs.
ApexPro telemetry beds: If a patient alarm condition of any severity
level occurs, the alarm silence condition is cancelled and the alarm will
break through.
Monitors and CD Telemetry-LAN telemetry beds: If a patient alarm
condition of equal or greater severity level occurs, the alarm silence
condition is cancelled and the alarm will break through.
The alarms for all patients are silenced simultaneously. You cannot silence
patient alarms one at a time.
The CIC Pro center displays a filled alarm silence icon when alarms are
silenced at the CIC Pro center or at a monitor.
