5.2 Alarm Levels
By severity, alarms can be classified into three categories: high level alarms, medium level alarms and low level alarms.
Physiological alarms Technical alarms
High level Indicate that your patient is in a life
threatening situation, such as Asystole,
Vfib/Vtac and so forth, and an
emergency treatment is demanded.
Indicate a severe device malfunction or an improper operation,
which could make it possible that the equipment cannot detect
critical patient status or may cause therapy failed, and thus
threaten the patient’s life, such as low battery.
Medium
level
Indicate that your patient’s vital signs
appear abnormal and an immediate
treatment is required.
Indicate a device malfunction or an improper operation, which
may not threaten the patient’s life but may compromise patient
monitoring or therapy.
Low level Indicate that you patient’s vital signs
appear abnormal and an immediate
treatment may be required.
Indicate a device malfunction or an improper operation, which
may compromise a certain function but will not threaten the
patient’s life.
5.3 Alarm Indicators
When an alarm occurs, the equipment indicates it to the user through visual or audible alarm indications.

z
When multiple alarms of different levels occur simultaneously, the equipment will select the alarm of the
highest level and give visual and audible alarm indications accordingly. Alarm messages will be displayed
circularly.
z
Some physiological alarms, such as Asystole, are exclusive. They have identical alarm tones and alarm lights
with normal high level physiological alarms, but their alarm messages are displayed exclusively. That is to
say, when an exclusive physiological alarm and a normal high level physiological alarms are triggered
simultaneously, only alarm message of the exclusive physiological alarm is displayed.
5.3.1 Alarm Lamps
If an alarm occurs, the alarm lamp will flash. The color and flashing frequency match the alarm level as follows:
„
High level alarms the lamp quickly flashes red.
„
Medium level alarms the lamp slowly flashes yellow.
„
Low level alarms the lamp lights yellow without flashing.
