Events Pop-Up Keys
Depending on the events view you choose, a selection of the events pop-up keys let you navigate
through the stored events and carry out events-related tasks.
Event Triggers
You can trigger event capture manually, for example, if you want to record a patient’s condition before
a procedure. You can also set events to trigger automatically, when the patient’s values cross a
predefined threshold value, or when a particular measurement or procedure is carried out.
The trigger condition for event groups is set in the monitor’s Configuration Mode.
If you use alarm limits as event triggers, the event capture is triggered automatically when your
patient’s values violate set alarm limits, or when a specified alarm condition, such as apnea, occurs. No
events of this kind are triggered if alarms are switched off. Changing alarm limits changes the event
trigger definitions.
The asterisk symbols beside the trigger tell you about the alarm triggers:
*** indicates a high priority (red) alarm
** indicates a lower priority (yellow) alarm.
Triggers without asterisk symbols are user-defined triggers.
