Setting up the monitor before use
Normal screen and other pages
When monitoring begins, the main page appears automatically. This preconfigured
page is called the normal screen. Any changes you make to the screen setup during
monitoring are changes to this normal screen. These changes are not permanent
unless they are saved to a profile. They are valid until the case is reset/the patient
is discharged from the monitor. They are also kept in the monitor memory for 15
minutes after the power is turned off.
Pages are user-defined screen formats. The contents are preconfigured but can
be changed. Page configuration is password protected, but once the pages are
configured they can be selected to screen by all users. There may be pages designed,
for instance, for physicians, surgeons, or nurses. For more information on page
configuration, see the CARESCAPE Modular Monitors Supplemental Information
Manual.
In addition to the normal screen, each profile can have up to five additional pages and
some of these may be preconfigured. These additional pages are needed for instance
when all the measured parameters do not fit on the normal screen page. These pages
can also include information that is needed only during a specific phase of care. The
name of the page currently in use is always displayed in the upper part of the screen.
