Chapter 4 Monitor Mode
Monitor mode is used for single patient's monitoring and management.
4.1 Admitting a Patient
The monitor displays physiological data and stores it in the trends as soon as a patient is
connected. This allows you to monitor a patient who is not yet admitted. It is however important
to admit patients properly so that you can identify your patient on recordings, reports, and
networked devices.
During admission you enter data that the monitor needs for safe and accurate operation. For
example, the patient category setting determines the algorithm the monitor uses to process and
calculate some measurements, the safety limits that are applied for some measurements, and the
alarm limit ranges.
