Except for the VS box annotations and waveform locations, the definitions described below are
applicable to both P1 and P2 channels.
Systolic/Diastolic Format
Item Name Definition
1 P1 VS waveform, or P2 VS
waveform
Is the detected P1 (or P2) waveform, Trace E (or Trace F)
To change the waveform speed, see Sweep Speed on page 3-25.
2 Alarm flag area Displays P1 (or P2) alarm flags when detected; see page 4-31.
3 P1 (or P2) VS box label Indicates the P1 (or P2) vital sign parameter, and accesses the P1 menu (or P2
menu)
4 Unit of measure Indicates that the pressure measurement numeric values are given in mmHg
(millimeters of mercury) or kPa (kilopascals); see Pressure Units on page 3-32.
5 Systolic numeric Is the patient’s detected systolic invasive blood pressure measurement
6 Diastolic numeric Is the patient’s detected invasive diastolic blood pressure measurement
7 Systolic upper alarm limit
Is the upper limit setting for the P1 (or P2) systolic alarm, and accesses the P1
Alarm Limits menu (or the P2 Alarm Limits menu)
8 Diastolic upper alarm limit
Is the upper limit setting for the P1 (or P2) diastolic alarm, and accesses the P1
Alarm Limits menu (or the P2 Alarm Limits menu)
