observation. Rate meters might continue to count the
pacemaker rate during occurrences of cardiac arrest or
some arrhythmias. Do not rely solely upon rate meter
alarms.
WARNING Always turn on Analyze Pacers for paced
patients, and always turn off Analyze Pacers for non-
paced patients. The Acuity System analyzes
arrhythmias based on whether the Analyze Pacers
setting is on or off. The Analyze Pacers setting is Off
