Printing History Events
Printing
To print a history event, press Record or Laser on the History or History review
screen. You can also print from the expanded History Review screen. To print tagged
events only, see page 143.
All events in a patient’s history file can be printed from either the strip chart recorder
or the laser printer. Printouts of history events are as follows:
• Strip recordings of a history event include the top two waveforms in the His-
tory Review screen printed with 10 seconds of waveform before the event and
10 seconds of waveform after the event. The vital signs of the patient at the
time of the event precede the waveform.
• Laser printouts include up to four waves displayed in the History Review
screen. The patient’s vital statistics, as well as the alarm limit which triggered
the laser printout, are printed under the waveforms and Chart data, if set on
the Chart popup.
If ST analysis was enabled when the event was stored, ST information is printed as
shown in the next section.
ST Information Printed
• For patients with central arrhythmia processing, digital ST values and tem-
plates, level and slope are printed on all strips and laser reports if ST data is
available. If ST is enabled, only 18 seconds (rather than 20) are printed on
laser.
• For patients with arrhythmia processed by the bedside monitor, digital ST val-
ues are printed without ST templates, if ST data is available from the bedside
monitor.
• ST digital data is printed preceding the waveform data on strip recordings and
in the ST waveform templates on laser printouts.
• Ventilator patient history events are printed only on the laser printer.
