Strip Chart Recorder: Annotations
Fetal Heart Rate Alarm Status/Limits. For
example:
HI=160 LO=120
This annotation prints at startup indicating the fetal heart rate alarm status
and limits. The bell icon
indicates that the alarm function is enabled. HI
represents the high alarm limit in BPM; LO represents the low alarm limit in
BPM. The alarm settings are adjustable via the user setup mode. The
annotation is reprinted every 10 minutes along with the time. If the alarms
are disabled, the entire line is omitted.
Chart Speed
(Example: 3 CM/MIN)
The chart speed prints on the bottom annotation line twenty seconds after
you turn on the recorder. It also prints following paper advancement.
This message prints on the bottom of the uterine activity grid whenever:
you press the UA Reference button ; or
automatic re-zeroing occurs during tocotransducer monitoring
BASELINE PRESSURE OFFSCALE
This annotation prints on the bottom line of the uterine activity grid during
IUPC monitoring when the pressure falls below 0 mmHg for more than 20
seconds.
Maternal NBP vital signs data. For example:
NBP 103/ 71 M 83 P 72
Maternal vital signs data prints as it is received from an external non-
invasive blood pressure monitor. A solid diamond prints in the bottom two
lines of the heart rate grid. The diamond marks the time of the blood
pressure reading and also indicates that the information comes from an
external device interfaced via one of the monitor’s RS-232C ports. The vital
signs data prints in one of the top three lines of the annotation area as soon
as a printing line is available.
Fetal oxygen saturation data. For example:
FSpO2 47%
The %FSpO2 data received from an external fetal oxygen saturation
monitor, prints once every five minutes. A solid diamond prints in the bottom
two lines of the heart rate grid. The diamond marks the time of the fetal
oxygen saturation reading and also indicates that the information comes
from an external device interfaced via one of the monitor’s RS-232C ports.
The vital signs data prints in one of the top three lines of the annotation area
as soon as a printing line is available.
Remote notes from a central information
system. For example:
EPIDURAL GIVEN.
AROM.
POS CHG LEFT SIDE
This annotation represents notes received from a remote central information
system. The computer icon
prints in the bottom two lines of the heart
rate grid. The icon marks the time of the annotation and also indicates that
the information comes from a remote computer. The notes print on any line
except the first. (The first line is reserved for NBP vital signs data.)
FMD
This annotation prints following the primary ultrasound mode annotation (US
) when fetal movement detection is enabled.) The annotation
represents only that the feature is enabled; it does not indicate that fetal
movement has been detected.
