Alarms
When configured, a graph prints automatically when a patient experiences a Crisis or
Warning alarm. Arrhythmia alarm graphs run until the end of the alarm event or
manually stopped by the user. The printer prints the 10 seconds of data that occurred
immediately before the event, and prints for the duration of the event. The printer
stops printing when the patient returns to a normal rhythm. If a printer is not available
at the time of the alarm event, a 20-second graph is saved. This saved graph will print
when a printer becomes available.
You can temporarily adjust patient status alarm levels and limits. See Adjusting alarm
control settings on page 5-8.
System status alarms
System status alarms are triggered by network or equipment problems. They are of
lesser priority than patient status alarms.
There are three severity levels of system status alarms:
„
System Warning : Serious network or equipment problems.
„ System Advisory : Network or equipment problems.
„
System Message : Additional information only.
The CIC Pro center’s response to system status alarms is as follows.
