Extended Database (CMS only)

No. of Parameters	Resolution	Size
16	12 seconds	9 hours
16	1 minute	48 hours
32	12 seconds	4 hours
32	1 minute	24 hours

If data is stored every minute, the values displayed are the stored averaged values of samples taken every 12 seconds for a one-minute interval (5 samples per minute). If data is stored every 12 seconds, the values displayed are the exact values taken at one of the 12-second intervals.

For example, if the database has been configured for 4 hours, typical of the OR, the data values appear at 12 second intervals. In this case, the values are exactly as measured, not averaged.

An asterisk on the trend or graph (*) indicates (1) a manually entered value, (2) a resampled continuously monitored value from the last second, or (3) a value more than 10 minutes old at the time of resampling.

Note—When the time in the upper right corner of the Graph Trends Task Window matches the system time (time bar at rightmost position on trend), the screen will be updated as new data is acquired. The Vital Signs display does not update automatically when new data becomes

available. To see new data, use the right arrow key .

Printed copies of the displayed data can be made (if a printer is

available) by pressing the Print Vitals key in the Vital Signs display, the Print Review key in the Blood Review display, or the

Print Graphs in the Graph Trends.

Trended vital signs can be recorded (if an M1116B PLUG-IN Recorder is available) by selecting “Vitals PLUG-IN” in the Vital Signs task window.
