High Priority Alarms
A
high priority alarm
warns you when a patient’s measurement matches or exceeds the high or low alarm limit for
that measurement. For example, if the low SpO
2
alarm limit is set to 92, and the patient’s measured SpO
2
is 90, a
high priority alarm is triggered. During a high priority alarm:
Figure 4.1: Alarm Example
The High Priority ALARM indicator flashes (red).
The digits for the violated alarm limit flash.
A message is displayed (subject to the display priority).
The High Priority Alarm tone sounds (if not silenced).
NOTE: The alarm actions occur for each violated alarm, even if more than one alarm is violated at the
same time.
