Display PI (perfusion
index)
(Masimo only)
Configures whether there will be a
perfusion rate displayed in the digital tile.
The perfusion index is a calculated
percentage between the pulsatile signal
and non-pulsatile signal of arterial blood
moving through the site. PI is an
indicator of the pulsatile strength. The
perfusion index allows clinicians to
assess the pulse strength at the
monitoring site for optimal sensor
placement.
On, Off
Sensitivity Mode
(Masimo only)
Choose the sensitivity mode depending
upon signal quality and patient motion.
High
This mode should be used for the sickest
patients, where obtaining a reading is
most difficult. Maximum Sensitivity is
designed to interpret and display data
for even the weakest of signals. This
mode is recommended during
procedures and when clinician and
patient contact is continuous.
Normal
This mode provides the best
combination of sensitivity and probe off
detection performance. This mode
is recommended for the majority of
patients.
APOD (Adaptive Probe Off Detection)
This mode is the least sensitive in
picking up a reading on patients with
low perfusion but has the best detection
for probe-off conditions. This mode is
useful for patients that are at particular
risk of the sensor becoming detached
(pediatric, combative, etc.)
High, Normal, APOD
Post Avg. Time
(Masimo only)
Configures the alarm delay. 2-4 sec, 4-6 sec, 8 sec, 10 sec, 12 sec,
14 sec, 16 sec
Fast Sat
(Masimo only)
Configures whether there will be a
turned on or off. FastSat enables rapid
tracking of arterial oxygen saturation
changes as may be required in urgent
situations.
