Automatic Admit
The AUTO ADMIT feature defaults to ON, but can be turned off in MONITOR
DEFAULTS. When turned ON in MONITOR DEFAULTS, the AUTO ADMIT
feature provides automatic admission of the patient and activation of alarms. The
monitor will automatically admit the patient after 30 seconds of continuous ECG or
SpO

physiologic data has been detected. The capability to manually admit a patient
is still available at any time.
WARNING
The AUTO ADMIT feature is only available on Dash monitors
using software version 6.6 and later. For monitors earlier than
version 6.6, or if the ADMIT PATIENT TO ACTIVATE ALARMS
message continues to display on the monitor 30 seconds after ECG
or SpO

physiologic data has been detected, you must manually
admit the patient using the Admit/Discharge button on the keypad,
or through the ADMIT menu.
WARNING
A clinical site might consist of a mixed environment of Dash
monitors with auto admit turned ON and some with Auto Admit
turned OFF, or Dash monitors earlier than version 6.6 that do not
support the AUTO ADMIT feature. If the ADMIT PATIENT TO
ACTIVATE ALARMS message continues to display on the monitor
30 seconds after ECG or SpO
2
physiologic data has been detected,
you must manually admit the patient using the Admit/Discharge
button on the keypad, or through the ADMIT menu.
