Chapter 21 Calculation and Titration Table
The monitor provides calculation function and titration table. Calculations are patient data that
are not directly measured but calculated by the monitor.
The monitor can perform drug calculation and hemodynamic calculation.
NOTE:
The drug calculation function acts only as a calculator. The patient weights in Drug
Calculation menu and in Patient Information menu are independent of each other.
Therefore changing the Weight in Drug Calculation menu will not change the weight in
