Introduction to the Instrument 1-23
Electrocardiogram/Respiration (ECG/Resp) Measurement
'HVFULSWLRQ
The Measurement Server has a three-channel electrocardiogram and respiration
measurement. It is designed to be used with adult, neonatal, or pediatric patients in ICU and
OR environments.
0HDVXUHPHQWV
The ECG/Resp measurement produces continuous real-time waves for both cardiac and
pulmonary activity. It also generates numerics for the average heart rate (HR), derived from
the ECG, and for the respiration rate (RR).
(&*5HVS)HDWXUHV
This illustration shows the user controls and connectors for the ECG/Resp.
Features of the ECG/Resp measurements are described in the following paragraphs.
(&*0RGHV
The QRS complexes are detected automatically.
In non-paced mode, no pace pulses are expected and no pace pulse rejection occurs. In paced
mode, pace pulses of channel 1 and 2 are annotated with a small dash on the screen.
5HVS0RGHV
In auto mode, the Monitor measures respiration and adjusts the detection level automatically.
In manual mode, the user sets the detection level for measuring respiration.
This standard 12-pin
connector will accept
ECG cable.
