18 Functional Verification Welch Allyn Propaq Encore Vital Signs Monitor
4. Set the patient simulator as follows:
• ECG Waveform: normal sinus rhythm
• ECG Rate: 80 beats per minute (bpm)
• ECG Size: 1 mV amplitude
• Resp Lead: Lead I
• Resp Baseline Impedance: 1 K
Ω
• Resp Rate: 40 breaths/minute (br/m)
• Resp Breath Amplitude: 1.0
Ω
5. Set the monitor as follows:
• Respiration Lead: Lead I (ECG/RESP > MORE; select lead and change as
necessary)
• ECG Lead: Lead II (ECG/RESP > ECG LEAD)
• ECG Size: 1 mV (ECG/RESP > ECG SIZE)
• Resp Size: 8X (ECG/RESP > RESP SZE)
• Respiration ON (ECG/RESP > MORE; select and set RESP to ON)
• ECG Sweep: 25 mm/Sec (SETUP > MORE; select and change HR/PR sweep as
necessary)
• Alarms (software versions 2.5X) : Set alarm limits to OFF for HR/PR and RR/BR
(SETUP > ALARMS > LIMITS > ON/OFF > NEXT > ON/OFF > NEXT PAGE > ON/
OFF > NEXT > ON/OFF. Press the MAIN MENU button. The ALARM(S) OFF light
will turn on, indicating one or more alarm limits have been disabled.
• Alarms (all other software versions) : All alarms OFF (SETUP > ALARMS > ALL
ALRM [software version 2.XX: press YES when prompted] until all alarms are off
except for the Apnea alarm, which cannot be turned off. The ALARM(S) OFF light
will turn on, indicating that one or more alarm limits have been disabled.
• Audible vital signs alarms (software versions 2.5X) : OFF (SETUP > MORE >
MORE > SERVICE > YES > MORE > MORE > SETTINGS > ALL ALRM > YES.
The ALARM light will turn on, indicating the patient alarms are suspended.
6. Connect the ECG channel to the patient simulator using all five ECG leads.
Part 1— Visual Check
1. Press MAIN MENU.
2. Press the FREEZE/UNFREEZE button to freeze the waveform.
3. Check that a normal sinus rhythm ECG waveform is displayed with a peak-to-peak
amplitude of 10 ±1 mm. There should be a soft beep tone with each QRS event.
4. Check that the monitor’s displayed respiration peak-to-peak amplitude is 12.5 ±1 mm.
5. Press FREEZE/UNFREEZE to unfreeze the display.
6. Check that the monitor's heart rate display is 80 ± 4 bpm, and the respiration rate is
40 ± 2 bpm before proceeding to the next step.
7. Disconnect the LA ECG lead wire from the simulator.
