The trace is displayed and the corresponding
measurements are displayed in the Measurement result
table.
Measurement package configuration
A list of all cardiac calculations with needed measurements and
location in the Measurement package can be found in the
Reference manual.
There are many more measurements and parameters in the
measurement package than shown in the default Measurement
menu. Use the configuration system to set up the
measurements that should be available in the Measurement
menu and which parameters should be calculated.
The following example based on calculation of AV CO (Cardiac
Output by Aortic Flow) describes how to configure the
measurement package so that necessary measurements and
the resulting calculations are displayed on screen.
Measurement package configuration -
example
Calculation of Cardiac Output by Aortic Flow requires
measurement of:
• AV diameter located in the folder Dimension (2D mode)
• AV VTI located in the folder Aortic (Doppler AV Trace).
• Heart rate
If a calculated parameter (e.g. AV CO in AV Trace
measurement) requires another parameter to be calculated
(e.g. AV Diam) the user must first measure the required
parameter (e.g. AV Diam) before the dependent parameter (e.g
AV CO in AV Trace) gets calculated.
Configuration of the Measurement menu
If the AV diameter measurement is not present in the folder
Dimension in the Measurement menu, follow the following
procedure:
1. Press
CONFIG and select the category Measure.
The Measurement menu sheet is displayed (see
Figure 6-7).
