Discharging a patient from a monitor clears all patient information while retaining the
unit name, bed number and factory or custom defaults.
WARNING
DISCHARGE TO CLEAR PATIENT DATA—When admitting a
new patient to the monitor, you must clear all previous patient data
from the monitor. To accomplish this, disconnect all patient cables
and discharge the patient from the monitor.
To manually discharge a patient from the monitor, follow this procedure:
1. Disconnect all patient cables.
2. Select MORE MENUS > ADMIT MENU > DISCHARGE PATIENT or NEW
CASE.
3. If in COMBO or ROVER COMBO monitoring modes, select on of the following
to terminate telemetry monitoring:
MONITOR — Discharge from monitor only. If ECG was acquired from
telemetry, telemetry will be monitored by the central station.
TELEMETRY — Discharge from telemetry only. ECG monitoring
automatically switches to the monitor.
BOTH — Discharge from monitor and telemetry.
4. If the monitor is setup to view other monitors, the following events occur when
the host monitor is discharged:
When running the VOA or AVOA software option, the viewed bed is
removed from the display and the monitor reverts to the factory or custom
defaults.
When running the AutoView XM software option, the viewed bed is
removed from the display, the monitor reverts to the factory or custom
defaults. All monitors from other care units are removed from the list of
watched monitors. All monitors in the same care unit are retained and
monitored according to the VIEW ON ALARM control settings.
