Maternal Vital Signs History: What is the Maternal Vital Signs History Screen?
What is the Maternal Vital Signs History Screen?
This feature displays/prints maternal vital signs data in a spreadsheet format—called
Vital Signs History. An example of the maternal Vital Signs Screen is shown on
page 12-4. A printout example is shown on page 12-6.
CAUTION
DATA STORAGE—Stored data for history is immediately lost
when the monitor is turned off.
This ensures that stored data for one patient is not inadvertently
transferred to a new patient. It should be noted that the maternal
Vital Signs History feature is most beneficial when a patient is
being continuously monitored. If a patient is being monitored
intermittently, all history data is erased each time the monitor is
turned off.
If a significant amount of history data has been collected and the
monitor must be turned off, you may wish to print the data prior to
powering off the monitor in order to retain a hard copy for your
files.
The monitor stores up to 8 hours of data on a first-in, first-out basis —available for
review and printing at any time. After 8 hours of data storage, the oldest data begins
to be replaced by new data.
NOTE: The monitor stores blood pressure and maternal pulse oximetry events
from the monitor’s built-in parameters. The monitor only stores external
device data from the TAT-5000 external temperature probe. See monitor
service manual for proper communications settings to interface TAT-5000.
The monitor stores the following maternal vital signs data:
 Each manual and automatic blood pressure event is stored. A blood pressure
event includes the systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, mean arterial pressure,
and maternal pulse rate derived from the blood pressure cuff.
 An event snapshot of MSpO
2
is taken every minute. An MSpO
2
event includes
the MSpO
2
and the maternal pulse rate derived from the sensor.
 An event snaphot of the MHR is taken every minute. An MHR event is the
MHR value derived from the MECG electrodes.
 Manual temperature events initiated from the external TAT-5000 temperature
probe.
