9.6.4 Initiating Auto Alarm Limits
The monitor provides the auto alarm limits function to automatically adjust alarm limits according to the
patient’s vital signs using. When auto limits are selected, the monitor calculates safe auto limits based on the
latest measured values. To get accurate auto alarm limits, you need to collect a set of measured vital signs as a
baseline.
To initiate auto alarm limits, follow this procedure:
1. Access the
Limits
page in either of the following ways:
◆
Select the
Alarm Setup
quick key
→
select the
Limits
tab.
◆
Select the
Main Menu
quick key
→
from the
Alarm
column select
Limits.
2. From the
Limits
page, select
Auto Limits
at the left bottom.
3. Select
OK
from the popup dialog box.
Then the monitor will automatically calculate alarm limits basing on the latest measured values. Before applying
these automatically created alarm limits, confirm if they are appropriate for your patient from the
Limits
menu. If
not, you can adjust them manually. These alarm limits will remain unchanged until you select auto limits again
or adjust them manually.
The monitor calculates auto limits basing on the following rules:
