2.4.2 ECG/RESP The DPM4 patient monitor has the following ECG functions: Lead type: 3-lead, 5-lead, 12-lead Lead way: 3-lead (1 channel): I, II, III 5-lead (2 channels): I, II, III, aVR, aVL, aVF, V 12-lead (8 channels): I, II, III, aVR, aVL, aVF, V1-V6, CAL Floating input Right-foot drive Lead-off detection...
RESP The DPM4 patient monitor measures the RESP based on the impedance principle. While a man is breathing, the action of the breast leads to impedance changes between RL and LL. Change the high-frequency signal passing the RL and LL to amplitude-modulation high-frequency signal (AM high-frequency signal), which is converted to the electric signal after being detected and amplified and then sent to the A/D converter.
2.4.4 SpO2 The SpO2 value is obtained through the pulse waves of the finger tips based on specific algorithm and clinical data. The SpO2 probe is the measurement transducer. It has two inbuilt LEDs and an inbuilt light receiver. The two LEDs include one red-light diode and one infrared diode, which emit light in turns.
2.4.6 IBP The IBP module can monitor the arterial pressure, central venous pressure and pulmonary arterial pressure. Measurement principle: Introduce a catheter, of which the external end is connected to the pressure transducer, into the blood vessel under test, inject the physiological saline. Since the liquid can be transferred by pressure, the pressure inside the blood pressure is transferred by liquid to the pressure transducer, and the dynamic waveform of the pressure inside the blood pressure is obtained in real time.
