Understanding the ECG Display
Your display may be configured to look slightly different.
1 Lead label of the displayed wave
2 ECG Filter label
3 1 mV calibration bar
4 Pacer spikes
5 Pace pulse markers
6 Current heart rate
7 Current heart rate alarm limits and paced mode symbol
8 EASI or Hexad lead placement label
ECG HR numeric: This is the heart rate derived from the monitored ECG.
Pace pulse markers: These are shown if the
Paced Mode status has been set to On, the pacer spikes are
not configured to have a fixed size, and the patient has a paced signal.
Pacer Spikes: The pacer spikes are shown in white, unless the ECG wave is white, then they will be
green. If the pacer spikes have been configured to have a fixed size, they will be displayed in the
background as a dotted line.
Synchronization pulse marks: When a cable is connected to the ECG sync pulse output connector, and
the synchronization pulse is configured to be shown, the synchronization marks appear as vertical lines
on the ECG wave. The synchronization marks will be shown in yellow, unless the ECG wave is yellow,
then they will be green.
ST numerics in ECG wave: ST numerics can be configured to show underneath the ECG wave on
the left side.
Hexad lead placement label: When 6-lead placement for a Hexad derived 12-lead ECG is used, the
Hexad lead placement label is displayed and all derived leads are marked with a "d" in front of the lead
label, for example dV1.
1 Pacer spikes configured to have a fixed size
1 Synchronization marks in yellow
