CAUTION
Selecting the display mode for IP waveforms
You can select the invasive pressure waveforms to be shown as individual waveforms,
or in a combined view.
1. Select Monitor Setup > Screen Setup.
2. B850 and B450 with the Double Video license: Select Screen 1 or Screen 2 tab.
3. Select Upper Parameter Area.
4. Select an option from the Invasive Pressure Waveforms list:
To view individual waveforms, select Individual.
●
To combine the currently displayed adjacent waveforms (2 to 4), select
●
Combined. The new waveform field will use the combined height of the original
fields.
To combine up to four waveforms in one field, select 4invP. The new waveform
●
field will use the height of two upper parameter windows.
Setting up a split screen
You can split the waveform area into two parts. The split screen option divides the
screen so that you can view graphic and/or numeric data of the chosen measurement
on the left while still having waveforms and parameter windows visible at the same
time.
1. Select Monitor Setup > Screen Setup.
2. B850 and B450 with the Double Video license: Select Screen 1 or Screen 2 tab.
3. Select Split Screen.
4. Select the type of split screen you need from the dropdown list:
Off: no split screen
●
ST shows current and reference QRS complexes and ST trends.
●
Spiro 1 is a basic view of Patient Spirometry data.
●
Spiro 2 is an enhanced view of Patient Spirometry data.
●
EEG shows the EEG compressed spectral array (CSA).
●
AEP shows the current auditory evoked potentials (AEP) waveforms.
●
Minitrend shows minitrends beside waveforms.
●
Locked alarm and parameter settings
Some care unit and profile settings can be locked. Clinicians cannot adjust the locked
settings for the admitted patient. These settings are indicated with a lock symbol:
The alarm and parameter settings that can be locked vary by acquisition module.
They are set in the Care Unit Settings and they are password protected.
For more information, see the CARESCAPE Modular Monitors Supplemental
Information Manual.

The waveform autoscaling feature automatically updates the
display from the best possible signal amplitude. Always make
sure that the waveform display scale is correctly understood
and does not lead to delayed patient treatment.
