Modifiers and manual parameters

Modifiers enable you to save additional information for the measurements for a specific
patient:
• Standard modifiers are the same on all devices
• Custom modifiers are specific to a facility or a unit; custom modifiers are set up
during the initial configuration requested by your facility.
Manual parameters are core measurements that you can enter physically on the monitor,
such as height, weight, temperature, and pain.
WARNING Inaccurate measurement risk. Pulse rate measurements
generated through the blood pressure cuff or through SpO2 are subject to
artifact and might not be as accurate as heart rate measurements
generated through ECG or manual palpation.
