Alarm Control: Alarm Structure
Alarm Structure
The alarm structure of the CIC Pro is divided into two classifications:
Patient status alarms
System status alarms
Within each classification there are levels that correlate to the severity of
the condition that is causing the alarm. The levels and how the CIC Pro
responds to each are described below.
Patient Status Alarms
Patient status alarms are triggered by a patient condition that exceeds
parameter limits, or by an arrhythmia condition. Patient status alarms
provide the highest priority information.
The levels within the patient status alarm category and how the CIC Pro
responds to each are shown in the following chart. The chart begins with
the most critical type of alarm (Crisis) and ends with the least critical
type of alarm (Message).
NOTE
Only arrhythmia alarm conditions are stored in alarm histories.
