Contrast; Monitoring Mode - Nellcor N-395 Operator's Manual

Note:
The default power-on operating mode can be changed to
the neonatal patient setting by qualified service

Monitoring Mode
In Monitoring Mode - Pleth View (Figure 9), tlie N-395 displays
%SpO2 readings, pulse rate readings, and a pletli waveform. In
the Monitoring Mode - Blip (Magnified) View (Figure lo), the
Pulse Amplitude Indicator and a larger %SpOz and pulse rate
reading are displayed. The pleth waveform is not displayed.
Instructions on how to select one of the two views by using the
softkeys are given later in this section.
The %Sp02 is displayed for values between 1% and 100%.
Pulse rates are displayed for values from 20 to 250 beats per
millute and zero beats per minute. Pulse rates below 20 (except
zero) will be displayed as 20, and pulse rates above 250 will be
displayed as 250. A pulse rate of zero is used to indicate that
the monitor is not monitoring a pulse.
A variable-pitch beep sounds once for each pulse, and tlie Pulse
Amplitude Indicator (in the Blip [magnified] View) visually
displays relative pulse strength at the sensor site. The pitch of
the beep decreases as %Sp02 decreases.
