Time to Alarm for Tachycardia
The ranges of time to alarm using test waveforms as
indicated in ANSI/AAMI EC13 Sec. 4 1. 2. 1 (g) are 4 to 5
seconds.
Pacemaker Pulse Rejection Capability
Rejects pace pulses using test waveforms as indicated in
ANSI/AAMI EC13 Sec. 4. 1. 4.1 (with amplitude from +/- 2
to +/- 700 mV, width from 0.1 to 2.0 ms).
Range and Accuracy of Heart Rate Meter
Meets the ANSI/AAMI EC13 Section 4.2.7 recommended
minimum range and accuracy.
Heart rate range is 15 - 300 b/min for adults patients and
15-350 b/min for pediatric patients with accuracy of 1% of
the range. (Note: for rates equal to or less than 15, the
displayed heart rate is 0).
