Managing Alarms
12.3. What To Do When You Hear An Alarm Tone
When you hear an alarm tone, you should look at the message area of the PPM3
display screen to see why the tone is sounding. The action you should take
depends on the message you see, as the following table shows:
Message displayed
What to do
Any physiological alarms
Check the patient.
Consult the messages table in the appropriate physiological
monitoring chapter (e.g., ECG Monitoring) for possible
causes and suggested actions.
MPC connection lost
Check to make sure that the Network Cable is still securely
connected to the PPM3 and to the wall plate marked
"Nightingale Monitoring System."
Talk to the MPC operator and check to make sure that the
MPC is still operating normally.
If none of these steps is successful, contact Zoe Medical
Technical Support.
Monitor problem detected
Power-cycle the PPM3.
If this message continues, contact Zoe Medical Technical
Support.
Battery low
Plug the PPM3 Monitor into a wall outlet to recharge the
internal battery.
