ST Printing
Laser Printing ST Analysis Information
To print real-time ST analysis information on the laser printer, press Laser on the ST
Analysis screen. The patient’s demographic information and ST parameters are
printed with the ST analysis data.
If grid and/or ST points are selected when you press Laser, they are also printed. If the
Cal Pulse is displayed when you press Laser, a one-mv calibration pulse is printed on
the left side of the template.
Strip Recording
For central arrhythmia source patients with ST enabled, ST templates are printed pre-
ceding the Waveform data.
For bedside arrhythmia source patients, ST data is printed preceding the waveform
data and under the waveform data in laser prints.
Printing and Recording ST Episodes
Real-time ST
ST templates are printed at the start of the waveform data. The ST information is
printed before the waveform data, and before the bedside data (if any).
ST in History
ST episode alarms are stored in a patient’s history file if alarms are set to STORE. See
page 145 for details and instructions on printing ST history events.
Learning
The arrhythmia software “learns” ECG morphology for each lead and generates an ST
template called the learned template. A re-learn deletes previously stored templates
and creates new templates.
During the learning or relearning process, which takes 30 to 250 beats, “LEARNING”
appears in the patient information block. See “Learn and Relearn Considerations” on
page 70.
