Combined heart rate /arrhythmia parameter field
Parameter fields report parameter values and
indicate the alarm status of parameters. Parameter
fields can also report technical conditions such as
disconnected sensors, and so on. For detailed
information regarding the content of parameter
fields for each parameter, see the chapter
“Troubleshooting“on page 509.
The following diagram shows a typical parameter
field layout. This layout may change when
additional parameters are put on display. For more
information, see “Parameter fields“on page 62.
When one or two ECG leads are selected for
display and arrhythmia monitoring is activated, all
arrhythmia values and labels appear in the heart
rate parameter field. The arrhythmia parameter
field contains the following elements:
A Heart rate parameter label
B Units of measure – can be
activated/deactivated
C Arrhythmia label
D Area reserved for actual event calls (for
example, Brady) or the message LEARN
E Upper/lower alarm limits or crossed triangle
symbol when alarms are deactivated
F Number of Premature Ventricular Contractions
(PVC) per minute
G PVC/min label
H Heart rate
I Heart symbol that pulsates with each detected
beat (if pacer detection is activated, the symbol
appears as when a paced beat is detected)
Separate arrhythmia parameter field
When three ECG channels are selected for display
and arrhythmia monitoring is activated, all values
and labels appear in a separate parameter field
below the heart rate parameter field.
A Arrhythmia label
B PVC/min label
C Upper/lower alarm limits or crossed triangle
symbol when alarms are deactivated
D Number of premature ventricular contractions
(PVC) per minute
E Area reserved for arrhythmia event call (for
example, Brady) or the message LEARN.
