Chapter 3 Monitoring Overview; Zoll M2 Monitoring Functions - ZOLL M2 Operator's Manual

This chapter provides an overview of the ZOLL M2 unit's monitoring functions. It describes
the types of vital sign monitoring that ZOLL M2 provides, and the flexibility that the
ZOLL M2 unit provides in displaying a patient's vital signs information.

ZOLL M2 Monitoring Functions

The ZOLL M2 unit provides standard monitoring functions, and allows you to view the vital
signs measurements in a variety of formats. The ZOLL M2 unit also allows you to set alarm
limits for the monitoring functions. If a patient's vital signs measurements go outside of these
limits when alarm functions are enabled, the ZOLL M2 issues an audible alarm tone and
displays visual alarm indications to alert you.
When the ZOLL M2 unit is powered off for less than 30 seconds, all patient monitoring
parameter settings are retained. When the ZOLL M2 unit is powered off for 30 seconds or
longer, all patient-specific parameters (alarm limits, defibrillator energy, etc.) are reset to their
default values.
The ZOLL M2 unit can monitor the following patient vital signs:
ECG
•
Heart Rate
•
CPR-related Chest Compressions rate and depth
