– Home Screen
WARNING! The SonarMed AirWave system is to be used to verify ETT placement, movement and
obstruction; it is only to be used as an adjunct to airway management. This device is not to be used as a
stand-alone diagnostic system.
Once calibration is complete, the Monitor enters the
Patient Monitoring Screen
, also known as the
Home
Screen
, and begins taking periodic measurements. This screen allows the user to set baseline and provides
icon-graphical and numerical representation of the status of the ETT including indicators for ETT tip movement,
passageway size, and ETT obstruction. Figure G-41 details the various features of this screen.
