Printing trends

Printed trends are useful for reviewing the patient's vital signs over the last several
minutes to the last five hours. The Propaq enables you to print one trend or several trends
with a press of a button, or automatically at 4-hour intervals.

Printing a single trend

The best way to print just one trend is with the PRINT button in the Trends Menu. When
you press the PRINT button, the displayed trend is printed. If you want to print a trend
different from the one displayed, press NXT TRND until the desired trend is shown.

Printing several trends

The best way to print several trends at one time is to set up the printer to print the trends
you want and then press the PRINT TRENDS button on the expansion module, or the PR
TREND button in the Printer Menu, whenever you want the trends printed.

1.

From the Main Menu, press SETUP, MORE, PRINTER, MORE. The printer trend
select window appears.

2.

Using the NEXT and CHANGE buttons, select each of the trends you want printed
and turn them on. Turn off all other trends.

3.

Now, each time you want to print the selected trends, press PRINT TRENDS.

Automatic trend prints

To automatically print trends at 4-hour intervals, activate AUTO TREND and select the print
times.

Use the CHANGE button to set the trend print times according to the start time (clock
hour) of each shift or to OFF.

Once the Propaq is set up, it will print all the selected trends at each 4-hour interval. You
can place the printouts in the patient's record at the end of each work shift.

This symbol indicates that the NIBP reading was taken in
the presence of high motion artifact while monitoring
ECG. Artifact can affect accuracy. To help reduce artifact,
