Setting Up Drug Dosage Calculations
The Drug Dosage calculation feature enables you to edit the inputs and to store
up to six drug records. Titration tables are displayed for each drug record entered.
Drug dosage calculations operate similarly to physiologic calculations except that
weight is handled differently, and that you must select an ADULT or NEONATE
patient type. Refer to Entering Patient Type and Gender on page 3-9 for details on
adult/neonate selection.
Accessing Calculation Data
Calculations can be accessed via the local bedside monitor or from a remote
monitor on the network depending upon the options purchased. Contact your
system administrator for details if you are unable to access this function.
The data displayed in the Calculations table is from the local bedside or the
specified remote monitor as selected.
Updating Data Between Monitors
The UPDATE DATA key is used to synchronize calculation data between multiple
monitors. For example, if lab data for calculations were entered at the central
monitor and stored in the bedside monitor database, using the UPDATE DATA
key would provide those values for calculations performed at the bedside.
Display Detail - Physiologic Calculations
Tables for Physiologic calculations occupy several display zones above the
message line, allowing display of waveforms on the remaining display zones of
the screen. The Drug Dosage calculations table has a different format, but
occupies the same four lower display zones.
WARNING:
• If the monitor is turned OFF, all clinical calculations data
will be lost.
