Figure 54- Status Box during an Alarm Event
The Dialogue Box, found in the upper right corner of the display screens, can provide
information on the patient, prompt an action, or serve as a reminder. The Dialogue Box can
appear alone or supplement the message displayed in the Status Box during a Warning
condition. In some cases, Dialogue Boxes, if ignored for a prolonged period, can trigger a
Warning message in the Status Box. Although a Dialogue Box can appear during a Warning
or Alarm event, the messages displayed in each may represent two separate, unrelated issues.
Normal Status
The Status Box displays a green background under normal operation when no problems have
been detected. During dialysis operation, the Status box will display a message describing
the current mode of the machine—CRRT or DIALYSIS. When a Dialogue Box message is
not displayed, the Dialogue Box displays the current time, patient blood pressure and pulse
and the time taken.
Warning Status
The Status Box background changes to yellow when a Warning condition exists. A Warning
condition, although potentially serious, does not pose an immediate threat to the patient.
