D. Buttons
E. Averaged values
F. Measurement windows
6. When you see the message [Ready for New Measurement], select the [Start] button
and then inject the solution within 4 seconds. As shown in the figure above, during the
measurement, the currently measured thermodilution curve is displayed. At the end of
the measurement, the thermodilution curve is transferred to one of the 6 measurement
windows and the monitor prompts you to wait for a certain period of time before
starting a new measurement.
7. Repeat step 6 until you have completed the measurements you want to perform. A
maximum of 6 measurements can be stored. If you perform more than six
measurements without rejecting any, the oldest will be automatically deleted when a
seventh curve is stored. After the measurements are completed, you can select from the
6 measurement curves. Then, the system will automatically calculate and display the
averaged C.O. and C.I. values.
When injecting, the stopcock to the PA catheter is open and the stopcock to the injectate
solution is closed. After the measurement is completed, turn off the stopcock to the PA
catheter and turn on the stopcock to the injectate solution, and then draw the injectate
solution into the injectate syringe.
