Auto-admit allows for the immediate monitoring of a patient at the Panorama Central Station.
To auto-admit a patient:
1. Verify that the monitoring device is in the Equipment List. For information on how to
access the Equipment List, refer to the “Equipment Setup Tab” on page 9-21.
2. Connect/attach the monitoring device to the patient.
3. Turn on the monitoring device. The monitoring device begins monitoring the patient. The
parameters that are monitored are dependent on the monitoring device.
NOTE: Auto-admit uses the system default settings for monitoring
the patient.
2.4.2 Standby
Standby mode suspends the monitoring of a patient at the Panorama Central Station while
retaining the patient’s historical data and setup priorities. It is, therefore, important that a
patient in Standby mode be alternatively monitored while in Standby.
To activate Standby mode at the Panorama Central Station:
1. Select the Patient Setup menu button.
2. Choose a patient tile by selecting its digital data or waveform area.
3. Select a Standby tab.
•The Panorama Standby Only button places the patient in Standby at the
Panorama Central Station.
•The Panorama and Bedside Standby button places the patient in Standby at the
Panorama Central Station and the bedside monitor.
