ECG alarm limits

The HR Alarms can be set to Single or Multiple through Monitor Setup > Defaults &
Service > Default Setup > Care Unit Settings > Parameters. This setting is password
protected.
The Single heart rate alarm setting allows you to set one common HR limit for multiple
sources (e.g., ECG, SpO
Alarms Arrhythmia tab. With this setting activated, turning off the SpO
pressure (Art, Fem, UAC) HR alarm limits also turns off the primary HR alarm, and
adjusting the SpO
primary HR limit value.
The Multiple heart rate alarm setting allows you to set a primary heart rate/pulse rate
source and up to three individual heart rate/pulse rate alarms and limits from the HR
Alarms Arrhythmia tab. It also allows you to set PVC and SVC alarm limits for ECG.
With the Multiple heart rate setting activated, turning off the SpO
does not turn off the primary HR alarm. The invasive pressure channels that appear
in the HR Alarms Arrhythmia tab depend on the channels that are configured for
arterial pressures. A maximum of 2 channels will appear if both invasive pressure
channels are configured to arterial pressures, (e.g., Fem 1, Art 2).
The HR alarm delay is configurable from 0 to 20 seconds in increments of 5 seconds
for the invasive pressure and SpO
supplemental information provided.
