Special alarm behavior
Activating any of the following features alters the
normal alarm annunciation behavior:
– ASY/VF alarms
– SpO2 desaturation alarm
– NIBP/SpO2 interlock function
– Zeroing invasive blood pressures
– Privacy, Standby, Cardiac bypass, and OR
modes
– French NFC mode
ASY/VF alarms
You can control the alarming behavior for
ventricular fibrillation (VF) and asystole (ASY)
alarms.
To make sure that asystole and ventricular
fibrillation alarms are always reported do one of the
following:
– Turn arrhythmia monitoring on
or
–Set the HR source to ECG (see page 212)
when the ARR mode setting is set to Off (see
page 225)
If you select Follow HR alarm, deactivate HR and
arrhythmia alarm monitoring, the message HR,
ASY, VF off appears.
SpO2 desaturation alarms
The alarm priority is upgraded to high-priority if the
SpO2 value falls below the Desat. alarm limit.
Deactivating the SpO2 alarm automatically
deactivates the desaturation alarm. The
desaturation alarm can be activated only if SpO2
alarms are activated (see page 148, page 263, and
page 277). When using the Infinity MCable –
Nellcor OxiMax, this feature is only available if the
SatSeconds alarm function is set to Off (see page
279).
NIBP/SpO2 interlock alarms
To avoid SpO2 false alarms when the blood
pressure cuff and the SpO2 sensor are placed on
the same limb during an active non-invasive blood
pressure measurement, select the NIBP/SpO2
interlock function in the General settings page
(see page 458).
When the function is activated, all SpO2 alarms are
deactivated during an active non-invasive blood
pressure measurement. To activate or deactivate
this function, see page 460.
WARNING
Alarm signals are not generated for
ventricular fibrillation and asystole events
when the following conditions are met:
–The ASY/VF alarms setting is set to Always
on or Follow HR alarm (see page 458).
–The ARR mode is set to Off.
–The HR source is set to ART or SpO2 with
ECG available as a heart rate source.
