History: Description
Description
NOTE: Age in this section refers to when and how long ago the vital signs were
taken.
The history mode allows you to access stored patient data in clinical mode and a
failure alarm history in advanced configuration mode. The history mode is
especially useful when doing hospital rounds: if the patient’s temperature and
SpO
2
measurements are taken while an NIBP determination is in progress, then
upon completion of the determination, pressing the History button once shows
all vital signs on the same screen for that patient.
The following information refers to operation in clinical mode. The V100 Monitor
can hold up to 40 stored entries in history. It displays the most recent entries
first. When full, the oldest entry is removed so the most recent entry can be
stored. Additionally, entries are
automatically removed when they become older
than 24 hours.
The age of each entry is maintained and displayed in the min window with a
minus sign (-) in front of it when other data stored for that entry is displayed. For
entries that are greater than 59 minutes old, the age is displayed as HH:MM
(hour:min). For entries that are less than or equal to 59 minutes old, the age is
displayed in total minutes.
When viewing entries in history that are out of limits, the corresponding HIGH or
LOW indicator appears in red.
An entry is stored in history at the completion of an NIBP determination and at
the completion of a successful predictive temperature measurement. At the end
of an NIBP determination, systolic, diastolic, MAP, pulse rate, SpO
2
, and
temperature (if measurement is completed while the NIBP determination was in
progress) values are stored. However, when continuously monitoring SpO
2
,
values are not stored periodically but only when an NIBP determination
completes. At the end of a temperature determination that completes while an
NIBP determination is not in progress, only the temperature value is stored.
To obtain a full set of vitals stored in the same history
entry:
1. Place the SpO
2
sensor on patient’s finger and place the cuff on the other
limb.
2. Start the NIBP determination.
3. Take the temperature measurement while the NIBP determination is in
progress.
4. Upon completion of the NIBP determination, remove the cuff and sensor.
5. Press the History button to view all vitals.
