To define a stage, double click on the selected stage or highlight and click Edit Stage.
Time/Speed/Grade or Power: use the up/down arrows to define stage time, and treadmill speed/grade, or
ergometer power in watts.
- set Time in increments of five seconds, starting at 10 seconds.
- set treadmill speed from 0.0 to 12.0 mph, and 0.0 to 19.3 kph.
- set treadmill grade from 0° to 25° elevation.
- set ergometer power starting at 10 watts.
ECG Print/BP Measure: use the drop-down menus to define when to print an ECG and/or prompt for a blood
pressure reading.
- to print/prompt at the beginning of a stage, select Begin.
- to print/prompt at the end of a stage, select End.
- select Off for no print/prompt.
- select Every to manually define the print/prompt time. Use the upper portion of the time selection to define
frequency; use the lower portion to define when.
Dose: use the drop-down menu to define when to administer the next pharmacological stage. Settings
available are the same as for ECG Print/BP Measure above.
NOTE: When using a device to acquire a BP measurement at the beginning of a stage, X-Scribe will start
BP acquisition immediately upon stage start. When acquiring a BP measurement at the end of a stage,
X-Scribe will start acquisition one minute before stage end enabling the BP measurement to be printed on
the ECG printout. If X-Scribe does not receive the BP measurement within the one-minute time period, the
BP measurement will not appear on the ECG printout.
Recovery
Number of Stages: use the up/down arrows to define the number of recovery stages needed. A maximum of 10
stages at 30 minutes per stage and a minimum stage time of 10 seconds per stage may be defined for each
protocol.
Define individual stages in the same manner as for Exercise.
