4.8 Alarm Treatment Measures
During monitoring, make sure there is at least one physician in the area where the alarm sound
can be heard or the alarm messages can be seen, so necessary measures can be taken when an
emergency occurs.
When the monitor gives out an alarm and catches your attention, you should:
- Check the patient's condition.
- Identify the cause of the alarm.
- Silence the alarm if necessary.
- Check if the alarm is terminated when the alarm condition is solved.
When the monitored parameter(s) come(s) back within the adjusted limits, or if the abnormal
technical condition does not exist any longer, the monitor stops giving out the alarm.
