Vital Sign and ST Segment Trends
Intended Use
The trends feature of the LIFEPAK 15 monitor/defibrillator provides the ability to graphically
display and document the patient’s vital signs (VS) and ST segment measurements for up to
eight hours. VS trending is intended for use with any patient who requires continuous monitoring
of vital signs over an extended period of time to identify changes in patient condition and to
document patient response to therapy. ST trending is intended for use with patients suspected
of having acute ischemic events, such as unstable angina, and for patients during treatment of
an acute ischemic event. ST segment measurement is initiated using a 12-lead ECG and is
derived using the University of Glasgow 12-Lead ECG Analysis Program.
VS and ST Trends Warning
Inaccurate Interpretation of Patient Status
Vital sign and ST graphs are tools to be used in addition
to patient assessment. Artifact and noise may produce
spurious data. Ensure artifact-free monitoring as much
as possible and assess the patient frequently to confirm
the appropriateness of monitor data.
