7.3.3 Connecting ECG Cable
Plug the ECG cable into the ECG connector. An ECG waveform and numeric
appears on the monitor display.
7.3.4 Selecting Leads
Depending on the patient to be monitored, you shall select the proper leads
as required.
1. Select ECG parameter area, enter ECG parameter setup menu, select【Lead
Type】.
2. You can select【3 lead】,【5 lead】or【12 lead】.
7.3.5 Checking Paced Status
It is important to set the paced status correctly when you start monitoring
ECG.
If the【Paced】status has been set to【Yes】, the icon will be shown
on the screen. If the system detects paced signal, the symbol “
︱
” will be
marked on the ECG wave.
To change the paced status, you can select【Patient Manage.】smartkey→
【Pat. Information】, and set the【Paced】status in the popped up menu.
Warning:
For paced patients, you must set【Paced】to【Yes】. If it is incorrectly
set to【No】, the monitor could mistake pace pulses for regular QRS
complexes and fail to alarm during asystole.
Some pace pulses can be difficult to reject. When this happens, the
pulses are counted as a QRS complex, and could result in an incorrect
HR and failure to detect cardiac arrest or some arrhythmias. Keep
pacemaker patients under close observation.
For non-paced patients, you must set【Paced】to【No】, otherwise, the
system can not detect the arrhythmia related to Ventricular
Premature(including PVCs count), and will not conduct ST analysis.
