A Manual Cardiac Output

with extreme blood
temperature fluctuations.
• Select CARDIAC OUTPUT
NOW from the Cardiac
Output menu.
• Watch for the INJECT NOW
message and inject desired
fluid volume.

immediately upon seeing the INJECT NOW message. If too
much time elapses, the monitor will cycle itself and the
message PUSH CO NOW OR TURN AUTO ON is displayed.

is displayed and the washout
curve begins to move across
the display.
• The message
CO COMPLETE is displayed
with the CO value.
NOTE: Up to four trials are displayed in the trial window. The
fifth trial automatically deletes the first. All trials are
averaged and the data is stored in the cardiac calcs.

• Select CHANGE VALUE to
exit or add unmonitored
parameter values.
• Move the cursor to RETURN
and press to select.
