Displaying Split Screen Trends

 

The alarm limits are represented by a rectangle, filled with the

 

parameter’s color at low intensity. When a measurement exceeds an

 

alarm limit, it is clearly visible against the screen’s black background. The

 

limits themselves are displayed on the right side of the trend display, next

 

to their corresponding boundaries.

 

The alarm-limit values are always displayed within the rectangle defined

 

by alarm limits, if they fit.

 

Note—Some trends, such as vital signs that are received through VueLink,

 

do not have alarm limits associated with them. In this case, no rectangle

 

is displayed for the alarm range. Instead, the default range scales are

 

displayed with low intensity on the left side of the trend display, to

 

distinguish them from alarm limits.

 

Trend data is only displayed for those vital signs that are positioned in the

 

left column of the numeric display.

Viewing Trend

Three trend values are displayed for invasive pressure; systolic, diastolic,

Data for

and mean pressure. These three trends are displayed together as shown in

Invasive Blood

the diagram below.

Pressure

 

Display of Trend Data for Invasive Blood Pressure - Example

The alarm limits can apply to any of the three pressures, depending on how they are configured. The alarm limits are therefore prefixed with a letter, which identifies the pressure to which they are configured. These letters are:

S

Systolic pressure

D

Diastolic pressure

M

Mean pressure
