Event Surveillance

Events are electronic records of episodes in your patient’s condition. You can trigger them manually, or set them to trigger automatically during pre-defined clinical situations. Depending on the level of event surveillance available on your monitor, the information stored for each event episode can include:

waveforms for up to four measurements of your choice (depending on episode type, see table on page 243 for more details)

numeric vital signs for all the measurements monitored

any alarm conditions active when the event episode was triggered

any annotations connected with the event.

You can navigate through the event database to view events retrospectively, and you can document events on a recording or report marked with the patient name, bed label, and the data and time.

Levels of Event Surveillance

The appearance of the Events windows and menus and the settings you can select for events depends on the event surveillance option purchased for your monitor: basic event surveillance, advanced event surveillance, or neonatal event review. This table lists the differences between the options.

To determine which level of event surveillance your monitor has, select Main Setup ->

Event Surveill. -> Setup Events and select the trigger group to see the available event groups.

if the only event group listed is NER, your monitor has the Neonatal Event Review option

if there is one event group and it is not NER, your monitor has the Basic Event Surveillance option

if you see six event groups, your monitor has the Advanced Event Surveillance option.
