7.3.5 Alarm Status Symbols
Apart from the aforementioned alarm indicators, the patient monitor still uses the following
symbols telling the alarm status:
indicates alarms are paused.
indicates alarms are reset.
indicates the alarm sound is turned off.
indicates individual measurement alarms are turned off or the system is in alarm
off status.
NOTE
z When multiple alarms of different levels occur simultaneously, the patient monitor
will select the alarm of the highest level, light the alarm lamp and give alarm
sounds accordingly, while all the alarm messages are displayed circularly on the
screen.
z Some physiological alarms, such as asystole, are exclusive. They have identical
alarm tones and alarm lights with normal high level physiological alarms, but their
alarm messages are displayed exclusively. That is to say, when an exclusive
physiological alarm and a normal high level physiological alarm are triggered
simultaneously, only alarm message of the exclusive physiological alarm is
displayed.
