Enabling/Disabling Resp Monitoring

Select the Resp Monitoring prompt to enable or disable

Resp

monitoring. When Resp

Monitoring is set to On (the default), the Propaq MD unit displays the Respiration Rate Meter.
When set to off, Propaq MD removes the Respiration Rate meter from the display.

Warning!

When using impedance pneumography, the Propaq MD unit automatically rejects
cardiovascular artifact (CVA). This function requires the accurate ECG R-wave
detection. Therefore, always select the ECG lead with the most prominent QRS complex
when using impedance pneumography to monitor respiration.

Heart Rate Meter

The Heart Rate meter displays the heart rate that it derives from the ECG monitoring function
(by default) or from a monitoring function that you specify. If the ECG (or user-specified
monitor function) measurements are not available, the Heart Rate meter derives the heart rate
from the following monitoring functions, if they are available, in this order: User-selected
default source, ECG, IBP channel 1, SpO

2

, IBP channel 2, IBP channel 3, and NIBP. The Heart

Rate meter is labeled

HR

(as in the following example) if the source is ECG, and

PR

if any

other source is used.

Configuring Heart Rate (HR) Meter Alarms

The Propaq MD unit allows you to enable and disable the Heart Rate (HR) alarm, to set alarm
limits, and to select a Heart Rate tone.
