Responding to Active Alarms -- Silencing the Alarm

When a patient alarm is triggered and the alarm tone sounds

1. Check the patient and provide appropriate care.

2.

Press the Alarm Silence/Reset button (

)on the Propaq MD unit’s front panel to silence the

alarm briefly (90 seconds).

3.

After caring for the patient, check that the appropriate alarms are set (for more information
about setting and enabling alarms, see appropriate monitoring chapters later in this manual).

Note:

Pressing

suspends the alarm tone for all active alarms. If the patient’s vital signs

measurements trigger another, different alarm, the patient alarm tone will sound, even
if the first alarm silence period hasn’t expired.
