CP 20_______________________________________________________________________Section 3
Plot Format
This option defines the default for one of five available plot formats. Please note that regardless of the plot format
selected, 10 seconds of 12-leads are always stored and printed.
The ECG plot options are:
Format
Option
3+1
3+3
6+6
Interpretation Option
The CP 20 automatically analyzes ECGs and prints the optional interpretation on the ECG printout. This option
allows you to select or suppress the "interpretive" text on the ECG report. Interpretive statement text can be
retrieved from memory if the interpretation option is disabled when the ECG is acquired and later enable.
NOTE: A qualified physician should review the computer generated ECG interpretation before the
treatment of any patient.
Reasons
This option allows reason statements to be included with the interpretive statement text. The reason statements
indicate why a particular interpretive statement was printed. Reason statements print in [square brackets] within the
interpretive text (if the interpretation is turned on). Turning the reason statement function on or off does not affect
the measurements performed or the interpretive statements selected by the analysis program. Reason statement text
cannot be retrieved from memory if the reasons option is disabled when the ECG is acquired and later enable.
For Example:
Anteroseptal Infarct [40+ MS Q WAVE IN V1-V4]
Where "Anteroseptal Infarct" is the interpretive statement.
And "40+ MS Q WAVE IN V1-V4" is the reason statement or explanation as to why the
interpretive statement was printed.
