Chapter 10: Clinical Actions and Analysis
here are several tools that assist the user in evaluating
patients. These include tools to compute derived
parameters, perform event reviews and review patient
data history from other EV1000 technologies.
Access all of these screens by touching the Clinical
Actions button.
Zero & Waveform
Zero Heart Reference Sensor (HRS)
The Zero & Waveform screen allows the user to zero the
HRS. The user is required to zero the HRS before initiating
monitoring. See “Zero and Apply Heart Reference Sensor
and Start Monitoring” on page 7-5 for more information.
Analog Pressure Out
The Zero & Waveform screen also allows the user to output
the arterial waveform to a bedside patient monitor. See
“Output Signal to Patient Monitor” on page 7-8 for more
information.
Central Venous
Pressure Manual Entry
The CVP entry screen allows the user to input a patient’s
CVP value to derive continuous SVR/SVRI calculation. See
“Central Venous Pressure Manual Entry” on page 7-8.
Derived Value
Calculator
The Derived Value Calculator lets the user compute a
patient’s DO
2
, VO
2
, SVR and CPO and provides a conve-
nient way to display these parameters for a one-time calcu-
lation.
1 Touch the Clinical Actions button.
2 Touch Derived Value Calculator.
3 Enter the required values and the derived calculations will
automatically display.
4 Touch the Home button to return to the
monitoring screen.
Event Review
Use Event Review to view parameter-related and
system events that occurred during monitoring. Up
to 72 hours of events are recorded in order with the most
recent event at the top.
1 Touch the Clinical Actions button.
2 Touch Event Review.
