the two respiratory electrodes in the right midaxillary and left lateral chest areas at the patient’s
maximum point of breathing movement to optimize the respiratory wave.
10.6 Abdominal Breathing
Some patients with restricted chest movement breathe mainly abdominally. In these cases, you
may need to place the left leg electrode on the left abdomen at the point of maximum abdominal
expansion to optimize the respiratory wave.
NOTE:
Place the red and green electrodes diagonally to optimize the respiration waveform.
Avoid the liver area and the ventricles of the heart in the line between the RESP
electrodes so as to avoid cardiac overlay or artifacts from pulsating blood flow. This is
particularly important for neonates.
10.7 Selecting RESP Lead
To change RESP lead, in the
RESP Setup
menu, select
RESP Lead
to pick up the appropriate
lead from the pop-up list.
10.8 Changing Hold Type
To change the calculation mode, in the
RESP Setup
menu, set
Hold Type
to
Manual
or
AUTO
.
When it is set to the
AUTO
mode,
Hold High
and
Hold Low
are unavailable, and the monitor
can calculate the respiration rate automatically. When it is set to the
Manual
mode, you can
adjust the broken lines in RESP area by the
Hold High
and
Hold Low
items.
10.9 Changing the Size and Speed of the Respiration Wave
Select the RESP waveform area to open the
RESP Waveform
Setup
menu:
Select
AMP
, and choose an appropriate value. The bigger the value is, the higher the
waveform amplitude will be.
Select
Sweep
:
select an appropriate setting from the pop-up list.
10.10 Changing the Apnea Alarm Time
The apnea alarm is a high priority red alarm used to detect apneas. The apnea alarm delay time
defines the time period between the point where the monitor cannot detect any respiration activity
and the indication of the apnea alarm. Users should set it cautiously.
1.
In the
RESP Setup
menu, select
Apnea Alm
.
2.
Select the appropriate setting from the popup list.
