Apnea events
In the Adult and Pediatric Mode, you can set the apnea delay to 6, 10, 15, 20, 25, or 30
seconds. In the Neonatal Mode, you can set the apnea delay to 6, 10, 15, or 20 seconds.
The Propaq initiates an alarm in response to each apnea event longer than the apnea delay
setting.
When an apnea event is detected, the BR numeric automatically goes to 0 and an apnea
alarm occurs. After the alarm ceases, the Propaq prints an Apnea Ticket if the Apnea
Ticket setting in the Printer Setup window is set to ON.
