RR Alarm
1. Press the RR Alarm key to display alarm setup menu.
Set ON/OFF of RR alarm and upper and lower alarm
limit.
The alarm will be set common to RR measured from
impedance respiration waveform or RR measured from
CO
2
waveform.
The adjustable increment for upper and lower limit
depends on the patient type.
Adult / Child : 5bpm increment
Neonate : 2bpm increment
NOTE
If the alarm is based on the RR measured from CO
2
waveform, RR alarm
will not generate unless 2 or more respiration is detected within 30 seconds
after power ON or after discharge.
Key Item Description
Individual Alarm
Selecting ON will generate the RR alarm.
Selecting OFF will not generate the RR alarm.
Lower Alarm
Limit
Sets the lower alarm limit (5
〜
145Bpm
／
5
〜
148Bpm).
Setting a value 5Bpm or below will turn OFF the alarm.
Upper Alarm
Limit
Sets the upper alarm limit (10
〜
150Bpm
／
4
〜
150Bpm).
Setting a value 150Bpm or above will turn OFF the
alarm.
Automatic
Setup
Automatically sets the upper limit to
＋
20Bpm, and the
lower limit to
−
20Bpm to the current value.
Apnea Alarm
1. Press the Apnea Alarm key to display the alarm setup menu.
Set ON/OFF of apnea alarm and upper limit of apnea
time.
Apnea will be set common to apnea time measured from
impedance respiration waveform or apnea time
measured from CO
2
waveform.
The upper limit can be set in 1-second increment.
There is no lower limit.
WARNING
The purpose of this respiration alarm is to alert the user to evaluate for
the possible occurrence of apnea events by identifying the absence of
respiration. It is not intended to be classified as an “Apnea Monitor” and
will not identify the condition creating the possible event. (Central,
Obstructive or Mixed.)
NOTE
If the alarm is based on the apnea time measured from CO
2
waveform,
apnea alarm will not generate unless 2 or more respiration is detected
within 30 seconds after power ON or after discharge.
