BeneVision N22/N19 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual 20 - 3
■ Cardiac arrhythmia
■ Tachycardia with a heart rate higher than 200 bpm
■ The patient’s weight and height are out of range: patient heights below 120 cm (48”) or above 230 cm (90”),
and patient weights less than 30 kg (67 lbs.) or greater than 155 kg (341 lbs.)
■ Aortic balloon or aortic balloon pump
■ Patient movement
■ Signal interference from cable connections and/or power cords.
■ During operations on the opened thorax the current distribution can be distorted and can lead to
inaccuracies.
■ Simultaneous use of electrical cautery systems during surgical procedures
• The ICG module allows the examination of adult patients in a resting position. The measured
parameters can be used only if the ICG waveform has sufficient signal quality and is without
artefact.
20.4 ICG Parameters
By selecting the ICG numeric area → Hemodynamic Parameters, you can view the hemodynamic parameters
for evaluation of the patient’s hemodynamic status.
