How SpO
2
, SpCO and SpMet
measurements are Displayed
The pulse CO-oximetry option displays a
plethysmograph waveform derived from data supplied by
the sensor. The oxygen saturation value is displayed as
“SpO2%”. A signal strength indicator, left of the SpO
2
field, shows the relative change in the pulsatile signal
(see below).
Note: The SpO
2
numeric displays dashes (-----) in the
oxygen saturation field whenever pulse oximetry
values are likely to be contaminated due to the
presence of excessive ambient light, inadequate
perfusion, high signal artifact, a defective or
disconnected sensor, etc.
If SpCO or SpCO/SpMet is installed and Auto Display is
enabled, the CO-oximetry data field will alternate
between the SpO
2
, SpCO and SpMet measurements.
SpO
2
will display for 20 seconds, followed by SpCO for
10 seconds. SpO
2
will then display again for 20 seconds,
followed by SpMet for 10 seconds (if installed). This
alternating pattern will repeat until Auto Display is
disabled.
Note: The presence of factors such as excessive
ambient light, inadequate perfusion, high signal
artifact, or a defective or disconnected sensor can
cause contamination to the SpCO and SpMet
values. In this case, the numeric value will appear
as dashes.
Displaying the Plethysmographic Waveform
The E Series unit can display one or two waveforms in
MONITOR, DEFIB, or MANUAL (AED) mode, as long as
the defibrillator is not charging or ECG analysis is not in
progress. The unit displays only one waveform in
PACER mode.
With SpO
2
monitoring, the unit can display a normalized
plethysmographic waveform below the ECG trace for a
visual indicator of SpO
2
monitoring.
From the physiological monitoring menu, press the
Wave 2 softkey to cycle the display from the capnogram
waveform, to the plethysmograph waveform, to no
second waveform displayed.
The unit temporarily removes the second waveform from
the display when you press the CHARGE, ANALYZE, or
ENERGY SELECT buttons, or the Sync On/Off softkey.
The unit restores the second waveform to the display
4 seconds after:
• A shock is delivered.
• A shockable rhythm analysis is completed, unless the
defibrillator is charging.
• ENERGY SELECT button is pressed.
• Sync mode is turned off.
Physiological Monitoring
When you turn the E Series unit to MONITOR (ON for
AED units), the physiological monitoring menu is
displayed with the following softkeys: Param, Wave 2,
ID#, Alarms and 12 Lead (if installed).
Param Softkey
When the Param softkey is pressed, the following
softkeys appear: Select, Enter, and Return.
Press the Select softkey to scroll the highlight area
among the different available physiological parameters.
Press the Enter softkey to select the highlighted
parameter.
Press the Return softkey to return to the physiological
monitoring menu.
