SpO2 and pulse rate with Nellcor OxiMax MCable
SpO2 display
On the Cockpit, the SpO2 display consists of:
– SpO2 parameter field
– SpO2 pulse plethysmogram waveform
SpO2 parameter field
The 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 272.
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 SpO2 parameter field contains the following
elements:
A SpO2 label
B Units of measure – can be
activated/deactivated
C PLS (pulse) label
D PLS value
E Upper/lower alarm limits or crossed triangle
symbols when alarms are deactivated
F Alarm off symbol when alarms are deactivated.
When alarms are activated, the alarm limits are
displayed instead.
G Message area for SpO2 messages
H SpO2 saturation value
I SpO2 blip that pulsates with each detected
pulse (only when the selected pulse tone
source is SpO2 – see page 278).
NOTE
The pulse plethysmogram waveform is directly
proportional to the strength of the pulse
amplitude.
NOTE
The alarm limits for SpO2 remain visible at the
Cockpit, the M540, on the ICS, and on remote
devices even though the Show alarm limits
setting is deactivated (see page 460). For PLS,
the limits area in the parameter field appears
blank.
If SpO2 and/or PLS alarms are deactivated, the
usual symbol appears next to the parameter
label.
