 Propaq CS Directions for Use 7 GeneralInformation Intended Use, Symbols, and Safety Information Intended Use The Propaq CS monitor is intended to be used by skilled clinicians for multiparameter vital signs monitoring of neonatal, pediatric, and adult patients in health care facility bedside applications. It is also intended for intra-facility and ambulance transport. The ECG channel is intended for five-lead or three-lead ECG monitoring.The Respiration (RESP) channel is intended to detect the rate or absence of respiratory effort, deriving the signal by measuring the ac impedance between selected terminals of ECG electrodes.The Invasive Pressure (IBP) channel is intended for measuring arterial, venous, and intracranial pressures (and umbilical artery and vein pressures for neonates) using invasive transducers.The Noninvasive Blood Pressure (NIBP) channel is intended for indirectly measuring arterial pressures using an inflatable cuff. If ECG is also monitored, the Propaq CS Smartcuf™ software algorithm automatically synchronizes the NIBP measurement process to the occurrences of the R-wave, increasing accuracy in cases of extreme artifact and diminished pulses. The operator may disable or enable the Smartcuf algorithm in the NIBP Menu.The Temperature (TEMP) channel is intended to measure temperature using an attachable probe.The Pulse Oximetry (SpO 2 ) channel is intended to noninvasively measure oxygen saturation of arteriolar hemoglobin at a peripheral measurement site.The Capnography (CO 2 ) channel is intended to noninvasively measure the following vital signs or events: End-tidal CO 2  (ETCO 2 ), Inspired CO 2  (INCO 2 ), Breath Rate, and Apnea. This guide was written for clinicians. Although this guide may describe some monitoring techniques, Protocol Systems expects that you are a trained clinician who knows how to take and interpret a patient’s vital signs. This monitor has been designed as a quality monitor; however, inherent limitations require that good clinical judgment always prevails. SymbolsWarning  WARNING statements in this manual identify conditions or practices that could result in personal injury.Caution  CAUTION statements in this manual identify conditions or practices that could result in damage to the equipment or other property.Note   NOTE statements provide additional important information.

 Propaq CS Directions for Use 9 GeneralInformation General Warnings and Cautions Familiarize yourself with all warnings and cautions before using the Propaq CS monitor. In addition to the following, other warnings and cautions appear throughout this manual.Warning  Safe interconnection between the Propaq CS monitor and other devices must comply with applicable medical systems safety standards such as IEC 601-1-1.Within certain governmental jurisdictions, all interconnected accessory equipment must be labeled by an approved testing laboratory. After interconnection with accessory equipment, risk (leakage) current and grounding requirements must be maintained.Before you use a Propaq CS monitor on a new patient, always turn off the monitor for a few seconds, then turn it on again. This clears the prior patient’s trend values, alarm limit settings, and NIBP cuff inflation target.Always check the patient mode when monitoring a new patient. The patient mode determines default alarm limits, maximum cuff inflation pressure, and internal algorithm settings.The monitor may not meet its performance specifications if stored or used outside the specified temperature and humidity ranges.Place the Propaq CS monitor and accessories in locations where they cannot harm the patient if they fall from their shelf or mount.Do not connect more than one patient to a monitor. Do not connect more than one monitor to a patient.Inspect the power adapter cord periodically for fraying or other damage, and replace the adapter as needed. Do not operate the apparatus from ac power with a damaged power adapter cord or plug. Make frequent electrical and visual checks on cables, sensors, and electrode wires. All cables, sensors, and electrode wires must be inspected, properly maintained, and in proper working order to allow the equipment to function properly and protect patient safety.Avoid electrosurgery burns at monitoring sites by ensuring proper connection of the electrosurgery return circuit so that the return paths cannot be made through monitoring electrodes and probes.During defibrillation, keep the discharge paddles away from ECG and other electrodes, as well as other conductive parts in contact with the patient. Avoid contact with any accessories connected to the monitor’s left side panel.To ensure patient safety, the conductive parts of the ECG electrodes (including associated connectors) and other patient-applied parts should not contact other conductive parts, including earth ground, at any time.Do not operate this product in the presence of flammable anesthetics; explosion can result.Electronic equipment that emits strong electromagnetic or radio frequency signals can cause electrical interference with ECG monitor operation. This interference may distort the displayed or recorded ECG signal, thereby preventing accurate rhythm analysis. Avoid operating this device near equipment of this type.To help protect against electrical shock due to leakage current, use only monitor ac power adapters recommended in the Protocol Systems  Products and Accessories  booklet (P/N 810-0409-XX).For best product performance and measurement accuracy, use only accessories supplied by Protocol Systems or recommended in the Protocol Systems  Products and Accessories  booklet. Use accessories according to your facility’s standards and the manufacturer’s recommendations. Always refer to the manufacturer’s Directions for Use.If a product has been dropped or severely abused, send it to a qualified service person to confirm proper operation and acceptable risk (leakage) current values.Some or all NIBP safety functions are disabled in the NIBP TEST screen in the Service Menu. Do not attempt to conduct NIBP TEST when the cuff is attached to a patient.Do not use the Propaq CS monitor in a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) suite or a hyperbaric chamber. Such use can cause fire or explosion resulting in patient injury and monitor damage.Impedance pneumography and CO 2  monitoring may not operate properly when used in conjunction with high-frequency jet ventilation or high-frequency oscillatory ventilation.

16 Protocol Systems, Inc.Learn Propaq CS Operation with In-Service ModeYou can practice using the Propaq CS monitor with the in-service mode of operation.The in-service mode cannot be activated while you are monitoring a patient. During in-service mode, the monitor display and all printouts include the message SIMULATING or SIMULATED DATA.To practice with your Propaq CS monitor:1. Disconnect all patient cables connected to the monitor. You can leave the NIBP cuff connected to the monitor so you can take NIBP measurements.2. If you have been monitoring a patient, turn off the monitor and turn it back on.If your monitor is programmed so that the NIBP Automatic Mode is selected at powerup, select one of the Factory Patient Modes as the powerup patient mode (see page 23). Then turn the monitor off and turn it back on. (The in-service mode is not available if the NIBP Automatic Mode has been selected.)3. From the Main Menu, press SETUP, WAVE SELECT, INSERVICE.The Propaq CS monitor has two sets of simulated patient information. To change between the sets, from the Main Menu press SETUP, WAVE SELECT, and INSERVICE again.While in the in-service mode, you can press any monitor keys (except the AUTO/MANUAL key in the NIBP Menu) to change a function setting. For example, you can change ECG and RESP waveform sizes, set alarm limits, or set custom settings.You can also apply the NIBP cuff to yourself and take NIBP measurements.4. To exit the in-service mode, turn off the monitor.If you changed the powerup patient mode in step 2, be sure to restore the appropriate powerup patient mode according to your local protocol.Note  The in-service mode is not available if the monitor detects that a sensor has been connected (except for an NIBP cuff) or the NIBP Automatic Mode has been selected. If the monitor is in in-service mode and you connect a sensor (except for an NIBP cuff) or press the NIBP AUTO/MANUAL key, the monitor will turn off power to exit the in-service mode, and then turn on in the normal operating mode.The pacemaker signal indicators are not displayed in the in-service mode.

Propaq CS Directions for Use 27MonitoringECG/RESPPerform ECG/RESP MonitoringWarning Impedance pneumography detects respiratory effort via changes in chest volume; therefore, impedance pneumography can be used to detect central apnea. However, apnea episodes with continued respiratory effort, such as obstructive apnea and mixed apnea, may go undetected. Also, artifact due to patient motion, apnea mattress shaking, or electrocautery use may cause apnea episodes to go undetected. Always monitor and set alarms for SpO2 when using impedance pneumography to monitor respiratory function.The Propaq CS monitor automatically rejects cardiovascular artifact. This function is dependent upon accurate ECG R-wave detection. Therefore, always select the ECG lead with the most prominent QRS complex when monitoring respiration via impedance pneumography.Don’t place the Propaq CS monitor with RESP in close proximity to another respiration monitor because the RESP measurement frequencies may interfere with one another.Because pacemaker pulses in some instances may be falsely counted as breaths, impedance pneumography is not recommended for use on paced patients.Motion artifact can cause incorrect breath rate or heart rate readings. Minimize patient motion whenever possible.If a disconnected lead is in too close proximity to other electrical devices, it may cause false heart rate, a failure to detect apnea, or a failure to display a Lead Fail message.The Propaq CS monitor does not provide arrhythmia analysis. Therefore, arrhythmias are not analyzed and may cause the monitor to display inaccurate heart rates.The Propaq CS monitor will show + + + for HR numerics between 301-350 beats per minute. Above 350 beats per minute, it may display incorrectly low heart rates, due to intermittent picking of R-waves.High-intensity radio frequency (RF) energy from external sources, such as an improperly connected electrosurgical unit, can induce heat into electrodes and cables which can cause burns on the patient. Reading errors and damage to equipment may also result. This hazard can be reduced by (1) avoiding the use of small ECG electrodes, (2) selecting ECG electrode attachment points remote from the surgical site and from the electrosurgical return electrode, (3) using electrosurgical return electrodes with the largest practical contact area, and (4) assuring proper application of the electrosurgical return electrode to the patient. Verify patient mode. Incorrect patient mode may result in inaccurate heart rates and inappropriate alarm settings.To help prevent injury, use the provided garment clips to route the ECG cables away from the patient’s head.Use of ECG cables with loose or faulty detachable lead wires may cause erratic behavior of the ECG waveform, SpO2 (C-LOCK), and NIBP (Smartcuf) due to intermittent ECG lead wire connections.Use only ECG safety cables that are designed so that they cannot accidently be plugged into an ac mains outlet or make contact with other hazardous electrical potentials including earth ground. To prevent damage during defibrillation, don’t use ECG cables without 1 kΩ series resistors.Before you use a Propaq CS monitor on a new patient, always turn it off for a few seconds, then turn it on again. This clears the prior patient’s trend values and alarm limit settings. ECG/RESP
28 Protocol Systems, Inc.Caution To protect the Propaq CS monitor from damage during defibrillation, for accurate ECG information, and for protection against noise and other interference, use only ECG electrodes and cables specified or supplied by Protocol Systems (these cables have the required current-limiting resistors). Follow recommended application procedures.• Impedance pneumography (RESP) is not recommended for use with high frequency ventilation.• Since RESP is derived from the same leads as the ECG channel, the Propaq CS monitor determines which signals are cardiovascular artifact and which signals are a result of respiratory effort. If the breath rate is within five percent of the heart rate or a multiple or sub-multiple of the heart rate, the monitor may ignore breaths and trigger an apnea alarm.• When monitoring RESP it is highly recommended that you use SpO2 monitoring as a backup monitoring method.• The Propaq CS monitor counts as “breaths” respiratory efforts that are larger than two times background cardiovascular artifact.• Even though the Propaq CS monitor contains fully isolated patient-connected circuitry, it has not been specially designed for direct application on a patient’s heart.• Use only with accessories provided or recommended in the Protocol Systems Products and Accessories booklet. • Severe artifact and interference (such as defibrillation interference) can cause the waveform to move off the display for a few seconds before it is restored.Prepare for ECG/RESP Monitoring1. Inspect the ECG cable and replace it if it shows signs of wear, breakage, or fraying.2. Select the appropriate patient mode. To change patient modes, from the Main Menu press SETUP, MORE, CHANGE, then the desired patient mode (NEONATAL, PEDIATRIC, or ADULT) and then YES.3. Select electrode sites on the patient.Choose flat areas; avoid fatty areas and major muscles.4. Shave or clip hair from electrode sites, thoroughly clean skin, and lightly rub dry.You may use soap and water, isopropyl alcohol or special skin preparation pads. To avoid allergic reactions to electrodes, refer to the electrode manufacturer’s directions.5. If you are using pre-gelled electrodes, make sure the electrode date is not expired and the gel is intact and not dried out. For best results, use only silver/silver chloride electrode.If you are using non-gelled electrodes, apply a 1/4 to 1/2 inch mound of gel over the electrode contact area. For best product performance and measurement accuracy, do not use stainless steel needle electrodes, squeeze bulb electrodes, or electrodes with dissimilar metals. Do not use electrodes from more than one manufacturer on the same patient.
Propaq CS Directions for Use 29MonitoringECG/RESP6. Attach lead wires to the electrodes before applying them to the patient. Apply the electrodes to the patient as shown.7. Plug the ECG cable into the ECG connector on the monitor's left side panel.8. Support the ECG cable so it does not stress the electrode wires, ECG cable connectors, or electrodes.9. If an electrosurgical unit will be used, place the ECG cable and electrode wires as far as possible from the surgical site and from the electrosurgical return electrode and its cables. This minimizes interference.Although the ECG channel contains electrosurgical interference suppression (ESIS) circuitry, noise artifact may be displayed on the ECG trace while an electrosurgical device is in use. Choose electrode placement to minimize interference.10. Look for an ECG waveform and heart rate on the monitor. Depending on how your monitor is programmed, a beep tone may occur with each detected QRS.If there is no waveform, check the electrodes, wires, cable, and the monitor for a possible misconnection or lead fault.G+RA LA LL If using MCL1, select LEAD II on the monitor, and use all three electrodes.Standard 3-leadConfiguration  (G)=LA (-)=RA (+)=LLMarriott Configuration MCL 1 One of six V lead electrode placement sites for the C lead.LL LARA RL5-lead Configuration V6V1Neonate 3-lead ConfigurationRA  LALL

Although Monitor Mode is useful to minimize baseline wander due to artifact, ST segments can be distorted in Monitor Mode. This can potentially cause underestimation of ST elevation and overestimation of ST depression. Although the monitor does not have automated ST segment monitoring, ST segments may be accurately displayed and printed in Extended Mode.RESP LEAD  Selects the RESP lead: Ld1 (RA-LA) or Ld2 (RA-LL). RESP lead selection is independent of ECG lead selection.Choose the RESP lead that gives you the best signal.

32 Protocol Systems, Inc.Use the Propaq CS Monitor With Pacemaker PatientsWarning Pacemaker signals can differ from one pacemaker to the next. The Association for Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI) cautions that “in some devices, rate meters may continue to count the pacemaker rate during occurrences of cardiac arrest or some arrhythmias. Do not rely entirely upon rate meter alarms. All pacemaker patients should be kept under close or constant observation.”The presence of much pacer-like noise can cause the displayed heart rate to be erratic even though the ECG trace may look undistorted with the pacer indicator off. To help avoid this noise problem, use fresh ECG electrodes and make sure the ECG cable lead wires make good connections.If the patient being monitored has a pacemaker, the Propaq CS monitor detects and can indicate the occurrence of pacemaker signals. 1. To access the monitor pacer indicator, from the Main Menu press ECG/RESP, MORE, and then NEXT to select the PACER DISPLAY.2. Press CHANGE to set the PACER DISPLAY either ON or OFF.When ON, the monitor displays (and prints on printouts) vertical dashed lines to indicate each time a pacemaker signal is detected. (If the pacemaker signal is strong enough, the monitor also displays it as a waveform “spike.”)When OFF, the vertical lines are not displayed (or printed), but the pacemaker signal waveform spike is still displayed if strong enough.Note  Pacemaker pulses are not counted as heartbeats as defined by the Pacer Pulse Rejection specifications (see page 100).Noise on the ECG signal may be detected as pacer signals, causing the pacer indicator to appear on the display. If you don't need to indicate pacemaker signals, turn off the pacemaker indicator for a better ECG waveform display.NET OFFHRVMON17:05:10 PRINT FAULT II P1( 96)BPMmmHg(M) 121 79SDP2(M) 259SDADULTON NETWORKmVcm1 80ALLEN KIMPacemaker signal indicators
Propaq CS Directions for Use 33MonitoringINV PRSPerform Invasive Blood Pressure (IBP) MonitoringWarning If electrocautery is used, always avoid using any transducer with a conductive (metal) case that is electrically connected to its cable shield. Using a conductive transducer case with such a shield connection risks high-frequency burns at the ECG electrodes if the transducer case becomes earth grounded.Although complete disconnections of invasive pressure transducers will be detected by the normal alarm functions, partial disconnection will not be detected, nor will the use of some incompatible transducers. The user must exercise reasonable measures to ensure that approved transducers are used and that pressure transducers are connected properly.Before you use a Propaq CS monitor on a new patient, always turn it off for a few seconds, then turn it on again. This clears the prior patient’s trend values and alarm limit settings.For best product performance and measurement accuracy, use only accessories supplied by Protocol Systems or recommended in the Protocol Systems Products and Accessories booklet. Use accessories according to your facility’s standards and the manufacturer’s recommendations. Always refer to the manufacturer’s Directions for Use. Do not use light-sensitive disposable transducers.1. Inspect the transducer cable and transducer dome for wear, breakage, or fraying. Replace any worn or broken accessory.2. Set up the transducer according to your hospital's procedures. Always refer to the transducer manufacturer’s Directions for Use. If the transducer is a disposable unit with separate cable, connect the transducer to the transducer cable.3. Plug the transducer (or transducer cable) into an invasive pressure connector on the monitor left side panel.4. To zero the transducer, open the transducer's stopcock to atmospheric air. Wait a few seconds for the transducer to settle. Before zeroing, make sure the transducer cable is properly connected to the monitor and the transducer is open to atmospheric air and positioned at the same level as the patient’s heart. The monitor will not zero the transducer if the pressure waveform is pulsatile, there is too much signal noise, or the transducer’s offset is too great.MONVMON IIBRP1BPMTEMPP1100.498.61.897NOTZEROEDNIBP( 85) mmHg(M)%°F122 58MCO2SpO2mmHg 38 Br/m12SDRANGERESCALEZERO P1ZERO P2MORET1T2∆TmVcm1mVcm1112The message NOT ZEROED immediately appears in the IBP numerics window for the invasive pressure channel being used.INVPRS

36 Protocol Systems, Inc.Take a Non-Invasive Blood Pressure (NIBP) ReadingWarning Periodically observe the patient’s limb to make sure that the circulation is not impaired for a prolonged period of time. Also make sure the cuff is properly placed according to the following instructions. Prolonged impairment of circulation or improper cuff placement can cause bruising.The Propaq CS monitor should never be used to monitor NIBP on one patient while simultaneously monitoring ECG on another patient.If a noninvasive blood pressure measurement is suspect, repeat the measurement. If you are still uncertain about the reading, use another method.Do not attempt to take NIBP pressures on patients during cardiopulmonary bypass.When monitoring NIBP, match the monitor patient mode to the NIBP cuff. For neonates, set the monitor to Neonatal Mode unless the circumference of the limb is too large for the cuff. In that case, use the Pediatric Mode. Be aware, however, that the maximum cuff inflation limits are based on the patient mode, not the cuff; the maximum cuff inflation limits for Pediatric Mode are greater than for Neonate Mode (see page 104 for values).Warning Before you use a Propaq CS monitor on a new patient, always turn it off for a few seconds, then turn it on again. This clears the prior patient’s NIBP cuff inflation target, trend values, and alarm limit settings.At powerup, the Propaq CS monitor has an NIBP default inflation pressure (cuff inflation target) based on the patient mode (see page 104 for the values). After each NIBP measurement, the monitor adjusts the target inflation pressure to optimize the next NIBP measurement. To avoid possible patient discomfort, turn the monitor off and then on between different patients to reset the cuff inflation target to the default value.NIBP measurements can be adversely affected by poorly fitting cuffs or improper cuff placement. Be sure to select the appropriate cuff and apply the cuff properly according to the directions in this manual.Note  NIBP measurements are affected by normal physiological pressure variations from reading to reading.Improve NIBP Accuracy with Smartcuf™NIBP measurements can be adversely affected by many factors such as cardiac arrhythmias, sudden changes in blood pressure, body motions such as convulsions or shivering, bumping the cuff, vibration, vehicle motion, or weak pulses.The patented Smartcuf software filtering technology greatly increases NIBP measurement accuracy in the presence of motion artifact or diminished pulses. Smartcuf synchronizes the NIBP reading with the R-wave of the patient’s ECG to eliminate noise created by external stimuli such as patient motion or vibration. The monitor must perform ECG monitoring while using Smartcuf.To enable the Smartcuf filter:• Connect the ECG leads to the patient and perform ECG monitoring during NIBP.• From the Main Menu, press NIBP to display the NIBP Menu (shown on page 38) and set Smartcuf to ON.NIBP
Propaq CS Directions for Use 37MonitoringNIBPIf artifact is so severe while Smartcuf is enabled that it affects the accuracy of an NIBP measurement, that measurement is marked with a special symbol on the display and on printouts:There may be some situations where it is desirable to disable Smartcuf. This may include situations with very extreme motion artifact, certain types of arrhythmias, or other situations where it is not possible to obtain a good ECG signal. NIBP measurements can still be performed when Smartcuf is disabled.To disable Smartcuf, from the Main Menu press NIBP to display the NIBP Menu and set Smartcuf to OFF.Take the NIPB Reading1. Select a cuff and hose appropriate for the patient. Select cuff size based on limb circumference. Use only hoses and cuffs listed in the Protocol Systems Products and Accessories booklet.Note  Be sure the patient mode selected is appropriate for the cuff you are using. For instructions about changing the patient mode, see page 22. Be aware that changing patient modes will cancel an NIBP reading in progress.2.

If below the heart, subtract 1.9 mmHg for every inch.The cuff should be snug, but not uncomfortable. The hose must not be kinked or pinched. Make sure the cuff tubing is centered over the brachial artery.If SpO2 will also be monitored, place the NIBP cuff on a different limb than the SpO2 sensor to help reduce unnecessary SpO2 alarms.4. Screw the hose connector onto the NIBP connector on the monitor's left side.5. From the Main Menu, press NIBP to display the NIBP Menu:START/STOP  Starts and stops NIBP measurements. During the measurement, you can press STOP (or the Start/Stop NIBP key at the right side of the screen) to stop the measurement and vent the cuff.If the Propaq CS monitor does not recognize a valid NIBP reading, it automatically attempts another measurement while displaying a retry message.

NIBP measurements can still be taken when Smartcuf is off. Artifact may interfere with the accuracy of NIBP measurements with Smartcuf off.6. If motion artifact such as shivering, coughing, or other motion interferes with NIBP readings, do the following:Position the patient’s limb away from the body so the applied cuff is not in contact with the patient’s body or any other object such as a bed rail. Try to keep the cuff at the same level as the heart.Make sure the Smartcuf filter is ON. Make sure ECG leads are properly connected to the patient and perform ECG monitoring during NIBP. (ECG monitoring is required for Smartcuf.)7. Set alarm limits according to your facility’s standards.
40 Protocol Systems, Inc.Perform Temperature Monitoring1. Place the temperature probe on the patient.Warning Application and use of metal-jacketed temperature probes that come in contact with conductive objects or clinical personnel during electrocautery may cause burns at the patient-probe/electrode contact points. Do not touch conductive temperature sensors during defibrillation or cautery.Use only temperature probes listed in the Protocol Systems Products and Accessories booklet. Other probes may produce incorrect temperature readings.2. Plug the probe cable into one of the temperature connectors on the monitor side panel. Within a few seconds, the monitor displays the temperature:If you connect a second temperature probe, the monitor displays the temperature for T1, T2, and ∆T.3. To set alarm limits, from the Main Menu press SETUP, ALARMS, LIMITS to access the Alarms Limits Menu. Press NEXT PARAMETER as needed to highlight the desired temperature parameter.

Propaq CS Directions for Use 41MonitoringSpO2Perform SpO2 MonitoringWarning Oxygen saturation measurements using pulse oximetry are highly dependent on proper placement of the sensor and patient conditions. Patient conditions such as shivering and smoke inhalation may result in erroneous oxygen saturation readings. If pulse oximetry measurements are suspect, verify the reading using another clinically accepted measurement method, such as arterial blood gas measurements.Tissue damage can be caused by incorrect application or use of a sensor (e.g., wrapping the sensor too tightly, applying supplemental tape, failing to periodically inspect the sensor site, leaving a sensor on too long in one place). Refer to the Directions for Use provided with each sensor for specific instructions on application and use, and for description, warnings, cautions, and specifications.Sensors exposed to ambient light while not applied to a patient can exhibit semi-normal saturation readings. Be sure the sensor is securely placed on the patient and check its application often to ensure accurate readings.Before you use a Propaq CS monitor on a new patient, always turn off the monitor for a few seconds, then turn it on again. This clears the prior patient’s trend values, alarm limit settings, and NIBP cuff inflation target.Note  During SpO2 monitoring, the monitor performs an SpO2 self-calibration procedure every 15 minutes to help make sure the SpO2 channel is functioning properly. During the self-calibration, the SpO2 waveform is displayed as a flat line for a few seconds. After calibration, the SpO2 monitoring resumes.1. Attach the sensor to the patient according to the sensor manufacturer's instructions, observing all warnings and cautions.Use only NELLCOR accessories and sensors with the Propaq CS monitor SpO2 option as listed in the Protocol Systems Products and Accessories booklet. Each sensor is designed for application to a specific site on a patient within a certain size range. To ensure optimal performance, use an appropriate sensor and apply it as described in the sensor's Directions for Use. Always observe all warnings and cautions. Consider using other types of listed sensors for different applications if you have problems obtaining good measurements.If excessive ambient light is present, cover the sensor site with opaque material to block the light. Failure to do so may result in inaccurate measurements. Light sources that can affect performance include surgical lights (especially those with a xenon light source), bilirubin lamps, fluorescent lights, infrared heating lamps, and direct sunlight.If NIBP will be monitored while using SpO2, place the NIBP cuff on a different limb than the SpO2 sensor to help reduce unnecessary SpO2 alarms.2. Plug the sensor into the SpO2 sensor extension cable and plug the cable into the monitor, or plug the sensor directly into the monitor.3. Lock the connector in place by turning the locking ring clockwise until it stops. The monitor displays STANDBY in the SpO2 numeric window until it measures and displays the SpO2 value.The monitor self-calibrates the SpO2 channel whenever the monitor is first turned on, at least every 15 minutes thereafter, and whenever a sensor is connected to the SpO2 channel. During calibration, the SpO2 waveform is momentarily flat.As oxygen saturation increases and decreases, the pitch of the heart tone rises and falls.SpO2

Adjust the placement of the sensor until a good SpO2 waveform is displayed. A waveform with artifact may cause erroneous oxygen saturation readings.7. Press MORE to display the second SpO2 menu:8. Press RESPONSE to select the appropriate time required to measure SpO2:9. If the C-LOCK function is desired, press C-LOCK to set it to ON.C-LOCK synchronizes the pulse oximeter's systole determination to the R-wave to reduce the effects artifact may have on SpO2 measurements. Under some conditions you may find more stable SpO2 readings with C-LOCK set to ON. SYNC appears next to the waveform when synchronization to the ECG has been obtained. Synchronization takes a few seconds to establish the first time. If C-LOCK is on and the HR source is SpO2, the heart rate source is automatically changed to ECG. An ECG signal must be present or C-LOCK does not activate.If you get false SpO2 alarms with patients with low perfusion states or multiple arrhythmias, try turning off C-LOCK.10. Set alarm limits according to your hospital’s standards.Response Time Indications for UseNORMAL 5-7 seconds Use for relatively stable patients.FAST 2-3 seconds Use when patient movement or other artifact is not present.SLOW 10-15 seconds Use when patients exhibiting movement are preventing accurate measurement at NORMAL setting.BR70SpO2197%MCO2SpO2mmHg 38 Br/m12SIZEMOREPREVIOUSMENU2XPulse amplitude indicatorOxygen saturation percentageRESPONSEC-LOCKPREVIOUSMENU

You can therefore perform intermittent or “spot-check” SpO2 monitoring.1. While monitoring SpO2, remove the SpO2 sensor from the patient, but leave it connected to the monitor. When the monitor detects the lack of a pulsatile waveform, it sounds a patient alarm and displays this menu:2. Press STANDBY to place SpO2 into the Standby Mode.The monitor suspends the SpO2 alarm tone indefinitely and displays STANDBY in place of SpO2 numerics. SpO2 remains in the Standby Mode until the SpO2 sensor is reapplied to a patient. Other vital sign monitoring is not restricted. By contrast, if you press SUSPEND instead of STANDBY, the monitor temporarily suspends all alarm tones; however, the alarm tone resumes after 90 seconds if the SpO2 sensor is still disconnected from the patient—see page 53.3. To resume SpO2 monitoring, reapply the SpO2 sensor to a patient.The monitor exits the Standby Mode and resumes SpO2 monitoringNote  The message STBY on the SpO2 trend display and trend printouts indicates the monitor was in the SpO2 Standby Mode.SUSPENDSTANDBY
44 Protocol Systems, Inc.Perform Mainstream CO2 MonitoringThe capnography (CO2) option measures End-tidal CO2 (ETCO2), Inspired CO2 (INCO2), Breath Rate, and Apnea. Patients using Mainstream CO2 must either be intubated or breathing through a tight-fitting face mask connected to a breathing system such as an anesthesia circle system. The Mainstream CO2 option requires the SpO2 option.Warning Avoid exposing older Mainstream CO2 sensors to non-patient sources of CO2 such as vehicle engine exhaust or smoke. Exposure to these CO2 sources can temporarily trap CO2 within the monitor or Mainstream CO2 sensor housing, even when monitor power is off. This can temporarily cause an erroneous elevated CO2 measurement baseline until the trapped CO2 leaks out and the baseline returns to zero (which can require as long as 3-24 hours).Do not attempt to verify operation of the CO2 sensor by blowing through it directly. Always blow through an attached airway adapter. Otherwise, a small amount of CO2 from your breath may enter the CO2 sensor housing and cause a small shift in the measured CO2 values. It may take 3-24 hours for the sensor to return to proper calibration.Do not clean and/or reuse a single-patient-use airway adapter. When a single-patient-use airway adapter becomes occluded, replace it.For best product performance and measurement accuracy, use only accessories supplied by Protocol Systems or recommended in the Protocol Systems Products and Accessories booklet. Use accessories according to your facility’s standards and the manufacturer’s recommendations. Always refer to the manufacturer’s Directions for Use for instructions about operation, cleaning, and replacement. Only sensors recommended by Protocol Systems provide calibrated waveforms and numerics.Note  The Mainstream CO2 operating temperature range is 10° to 40°C. This is different than the range of 0° to 40°C for other Propaq CS monitor functions. CO2 monitoring outside the specified range can cause inaccurate CO2 measurements.1. Select the appropriate airway adapter.2. Connect the adapter, ventilator circuit, and CO2 sensor according to the manufacturer’s instructions.Low dead space airway adapterAdult airway adapterWindow WindowCO2
Propaq CS Directions for Use 45MonitoringCO2Warning Before using an airway adapter, always look through the window lumen and inspect the adapter for inadvertently lodged obstructions and for window integrity.If the sensor does not easily slide onto the adapter, do not attempt to force these components together. They fit together in only one way. Take care not to damage the glass window.After attaching the sensor to the adapter, check for proper placement. Check the sensor and adapter periodically during monitoring to make sure they are properly connected and the adapter is not clogged by obstructions or debris.When attaching the airway adapter, position the adapter so the sensor is on top to avoid fluid collection in the sensor airway slot. Any concentration of fluids here can cause inaccurate CO2 readings.When connecting the adapter and sensor to the ventilator circuit, do not use the adapter and sensor as a wrench to twist the adapter into the ventilator circuit. Such action could damage the adapter and sensor.Always check to make sure there are no leaks in the breathing circuit. Check all of the connections.3. Plug in the CO2 sensor cable to the Mainstream CO2 connector on the monitor left side panel. Warning When disconnecting the CO2 sensor from the tracheal or endotracheal tube, check the sensor to determine how hot it is. If it is too hot for patient comfort, do not allow it to come into contact with the patient.4. See page 48 and set up the CO2 display and alarm limits.Note  When disconnecting the airway adapter from the ventilator circuit, always detach the CO2 sensor from the airway adapter before removing the airway adapter from the ventilator circuit.
46 Protocol Systems, Inc.Perform Sidestream CO2 MonitoringThe capnography (CO2) option measures End-tidal CO2 (ETCO2), Inspired CO2 (INCO2), Breath Rate, and Apnea. Patients using Sidestream CO2 can either be intubated or non-intubated using a CO2 Sampling cannula or a combination CO2 Sampling/Oxygen Delivery nasal cannula. The Sidestream CO2 option requires the SpO2 option.Warning Do not use Sidestream CO2 if flammable anesthetic gases are in use.If the Sidestream CO2 option is connected to a ventilatory circuit, be sure to adjust appropriate ventilator or anesthesia system settings to compensate for the sampling flow volume (90 or 175 ml/min) that is aspirated from the ventilatory circuit by the Sidestream CO2 option.Avoid exposing a Propaq CS monitor with the Sidestream CO2 option to non-patient sources of CO2 such as vehicle engine exhaust or smoke. When such exposure is possible, avoid opening the printer door. Exposure to these CO2 sources can temporarily trap CO2 within the monitor, even when monitor power is off. This can temporarily cause an erroneous elevated CO2 measurement baseline until the trapped CO2 leaks out and the baseline returns to zero (which can require as long as 3-24 hours).For best product performance and measurement accuracy, use only accessories supplied by Protocol Systems or recommended in the Protocol Systems Products and Accessories booklet. Use accessories according to your facility’s standards and the manufacturer’s recommendations. Always refer to the manufacturer’s Directions for Use for instructions about operation, cleaning, and replacement.Note  The Sidestream CO2 operating temperature range is 5° to 40°C. This is different than the range of 0° to 40°C for other Propaq CS monitor functions. CO2 monitoring outside the specified range can cause inaccurate CO2 measurements.• When monitoring a small child with a rapid respiratory rate, Mainstream CO2 can provide a more accurate representation of the expired CO2 waveform than Sidestream CO2.• Breath rates greater than 50 breaths/minute may reduce the reported ETCO2 values. Select the 175 ml/min flow rate to minimize errors at higher breath rates.• The 175 ml/min flow rate is recommended for intubated adult patients.1. Firmly insert the Sidestream CO2 watertrap into the Sidestream CO2 connector on the monitor left side panel.Warning The watertrap is disposable and should only be used for a single patient. Do not reuse the watertrap for another patient.2. See page 48 and set up the CO2 display and alarm limits, then continue this procedure with step 3.Sidestream CO2  ConnectorWatertrapExhaust Port.

Propaq CS Directions for Use 47MonitoringCO23. For a non-intubated patient, position the cannula on the patient according to the manufacturer’s instructions.Warning The cannula is disposable and should only be used for a single patient. Do not reuse the cannula for another patient.If oxygen is being delivered while using Sidestream CO2, be sure to use a CO2 Sampling and O2 Delivery Cannula. Using a different type of cannula could obstruct oxygen delivery.4. Connect the sample line to the cannula (for a non-intubated patient) or the elbow connector (for an intubated patient) and the watertrap. Make sure that the sample line is firmly connected.Warning The exhaust port for Sidestream CO2 is an output for the expired gases from the patient and any connected breathing apparatus. The exhaust port is intended only for connection to gas collection equipment such as gas scavenger devices (the device should comply with ISO 8835-3:1997 E). Do not allow any other connection to the exhaust port.If the Sidestream CO2 option is connected to a ventilatory circuit, be sure to adjust appropriate ventilator or anesthesia system settings to compensate for the sampling flow volume (90 or 175 ml/min) that is aspirated from the ventilatory circuit by the Sidestream CO2 option.If you use a gas scavenging system with Sidestream CO2, be sure to install it according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The scavenging system should comply with ISO 8835-3:1997 (E).Sidestream CO2 accuracy decreases if additional tubing is connected to the sample line.

Propaq CS Directions for Use 53Alarms &AlertsRespond to Patient AlarmsWhen an apnea alarm or patient alarm occurs, the monitor produces an audible tone and visual indicators and displays the following:1. Press the Suspend/Resume Alarms key in the upper right corner of the screen or SUSPEND in the Patient Alarm Menu. The tone is suspended for 90 seconds. During that period, visual alarm indications continue.To “unsuspend” the alarm before 90 seconds has elapsed, press the Suspend/Resume key or RESUME. If an alarm condition still exists, the tone will again sound. For NIBP, pressing Suspend/Resume or RESUME will not resume the NIBP alarm because NIBP is not continuously measured.Warning Suspending an alarm suspends ALL alarm tones for 90 seconds or until RESUME is pressed.2. Check the patient and provide appropriate care.3. To adjust alarm limits, press Home, SETUP, ALARMS, LIMITS to display the Alarm Limits Window. Use NEXT PARAMETER and NEXT SETTING as needed to highlight the limit you want to change.• Press UP or DOWN to change the limits.• Press ON/OFF to turn an alarm off or on. (The ON/OFF button is not available for HR/PR alarm limits if HR/PR ALARM LIMITS in the Settings window is set to CANNOT TURN OFF.)4. If you want to quickly turn off all alarm limits, from the Main Menu press SETUP, ALARMS, ALL ALARMS. You cannot turn off the Apnea alarm.5. After caring for the patient, turn on the appropriate alarm limits.Flashing numerics indicate that limits have been violated.Alarm lights (see table on page 109)Press LIMITS to adjust alarm limits (if LIMITS is available).Press to suspend the tone for 90 seconds.Suspend/Resume AlarmsHome
54 Protocol Systems, Inc.Customize Alarm Limits Based on Patient’s Current Vital Signs1. To quickly set all alarm limits, from the Main Menu press SETUP, ALARMS, STAT SET. The monitor turns on all alarms and calculates new alarm limits based on the patient’s current vital sign values. Make sure that the new limits are appropriate for the patient.Warning If a patient’s vital sign value falls outside of the upper or lower alarm range limit, STAT SET turns off the alarm and the alarm limit except for the following:1. The lower alarm limits for SpO2 and ETCO2 are not turned off by STAT SET.2. If HR/PR ALARM LIMITS in the Settings window is set to CANNOT TURN OFF, STAT SET affects HR/PR alarm limits as follows: HR/PR PATIENT VALUE DISPLAY UPPER LIMIT LOWER LIMITOverrange +++ Maximum UnchangedUnderrange - - - Unchanged MinimumIndeterminate ??? Unchanged Unchanged STAT SET Limit Calculations11. New alarm limits calculated by STAT SET cannot be outside the allowable alarm limit range. If a new limit is calculated to be above or below the allowable alarm limit range, it defaults to the maximum or minimum alarm limit allowed for that vital sign.Vital Sign If the Patient’s Vital Sign Value is Then Calculated New Lower Limit is Then Calculated New Upper Limit isHeart Rate HR ≤ 99100 - 250HR ≥ 251HR x 0.8HR - 20UnchangedHR x 1.2HR + 20250Pulse Rate PR ≤ 99PR ≥ 100 PR x 0.8PR - 20 PR x 1.2PR + 20Invasive Pressure Inv Prs ≤ 2526 - 99Inv Prs ≥ 100Inv.

Propaq CS Directions for Use 55Alarms &AlertsAlarm HoldoffsTo help minimize false alarms, the monitor briefly delays or “holds off” triggering alarms for limit violations for HR/PR, SpO2, and RR/BR. After the alarm holdoff period begins, if the monitor detects that the patient’s vital sign has returned to acceptable limits, the monitor cancels the alarm holdoff. The next time a vital sign limit is violated, the monitor starts a new holdoff period.Connect Nurse Call OptionThe Propaq CS monitor can be connected to a Nurse Call system through a customized cable that connects to the left-side Nurse Call connector. When connected, the monitor immediately notifies the Nurse Call system whenever a patient alarm occurs.To connect the monitor to the Nurse Call system, you need a cable (Protocol Part Number 008-0634-XX) that has been customized for your Nurse Call system. If you do not have this cable, contact your biomedical engineering department for assistance. For specifications, see page 110.Note  When an apnea alarm or patient alarm occurs, pressing the Suspend/Resume Alarm key or SUSPEND suspends the alarm tone and Nurse Call alarm for 90 seconds. However, the visual indicators on the monitor are not suspended during this time.Even though the Nurse Call option allows remote alarm indication, it does not replace appropriate bedside surveillance by trained clinicians.Vital Sign Alarm Holdoff Time PeriodHR/PR 3 seconds (except NIBP PR)SpO210 secondsRR/BR 5 secondsNurse Call Connector
56 Protocol Systems, Inc.Respond to An Equipment AlertWhen the monitor detects an equipment problem, it produces an audible alert tone every five seconds. It also displays an equipment alert message similar to the following:1. Press any key at the bottom of the screen to silence the alert tone (or press the Suspend/Resume Alarms key in the upper right corner to silence the alert tone for 90 seconds).2. Determine what caused the problem and correct it. For descriptions of equipment alert messages and suggested responses, see page 57.Sometimes an equipment alert also causes one or more patient alarms. Patient alarms have a higher priority than equipment alerts and are displayed first. Respond to the patient alarm or alarms (see page 53), then respond to the equipment alert.If you turn off any alarm limits while responding to a patient alarm, be sure to restore the appropriate alarm limits before resuming patient monitoring.NET OFFHRMON17:05:10 PRINT FAULT IIBRP1( 96)BPMmmHg(M)TEMP 100.498.61.897121 79SDP2( 15) mmHg(M) 259SD%°FMCO2SpO2mmHg 38 Br/m12ADULTON NETWORKT1T2∆TmVcm1112EQUIPMENT ALERTNIBP FAULTCUFF NOT DETECTEDPRESS ANY KEY BELOW TO ACKNOWLEDGEALLEN KIMGeneralequipment alertmessageSpecific problemPress any key tosilence the alert tone.
Propaq CS Directions for Use 57Alarms &AlertsTroubleshooting Equipment Alert MessagesECG MessagesIf a lead fault occurs, the ECG equipment alert typically shows which lead failed. If multiple leads fail, the monitor displays MULTIPLE.ECG LEAD CHANGED. The Propaq CS monitor has automatically changed an ECG lead due to a lead wire or electrode problem. LEAD FAIL: REPLACE ELECTRODES. The cable may not be properly connected to the electrodes or the electrodes may have failed. Check for proper connection; replace electrodes if needed.RESP MessagesLEAD FAIL. One or more electrodes are making very poor or no contact. Check for proper connection; replace electrodes if needed.INAPPROPRIATE ECG CABLE. ECG cable appears not to contain 1 kΩ current limiting resistors. These resistors are required for RESP operation and to protect the monitor from damage during defibrillation. Replace cable with proper type.NOISY SIGNAL, CHECK ELECTRODES. Electrodes are making poor contact and may be dried out. Replace electrodes.IBP MessagesTRANSDUCER NOT DETECTED. The transducer connection is broken.TRANSDUCER SHORT CIRCUIT. This message appears when the Propaq CS monitor senses a short in the transducer. The transducer should be replaced.INCOMPATIBLE TRANSDUCER. Check the compatible transducers listed in the Protocol Systems Products and Accessories booklet to confirm you are using a compatible transducer.NIBP MessagesIf an error number (ERR# x) is listed in an NIBP trend printout or display, it indicates that the corresponding NIBP equipment alert occurred.AIR LEAK, CHECK HOSE (ERR# 1). The Propaq CS monitor could not properly inflate cuff. Check the hose and cuff for obvious leaks, such as the O-rings in the hose connections.CUFF NOT DETECTED (ERR# 2). During cuff inflation the detected pressure did not sufficiently rise. Check that the cuff connection is tight and take the measurement again.KINKED HOSE, CHECK HOSE (ERR# 3). The Propaq CS monitor could not properly inflate cuff. Check for a kinked hose between the monitor and the patient.
58 Protocol Systems, Inc.OVERPRESSURE CONDITION (ERR# 4). The pressure in the cuff exceeded the acceptable limits for patient mode. Check the hose and try taking another measurement.WEAK PULSES, CAN'T FIND SYS/DIA (ERR# 5). There are not enough pulses to determine the systolic or diastolic pressures, but a mean pressure is available. Try reapplying the cuff after squeezing as much air from it as you can.ARTIFACT, CAN’T FIND SYS/DIA (ERR# 6). The systolic or diastolic pressures are unreliable due to artifact, but a mean pressure is available. May be caused by patient motion.NO PULSES DETECTED (ERR# 7). The cuff may not be properly applied to the patient, or the patient may not have detectable pulses due to shock or arrhythmias.Warning The Propaq CS monitor cannot differentiate between physiologic and cuff application causes of the NO PULSES DETECTED message. Always evaluate the patient for presence of life threatening conditions whenever this message occurs.CONNECT ECG TO REDUCE NIBP ARTIFACT (ERR# 8). NIBP artifact prevents a valid reading. Connect ECG electrodes to improve NIBP measurements.NO VALID BLOOD PRESSURE FOUND (ERR# 9). This message can occur due to motion artifact, the Propaq CS monitor being set in the wrong patient mode, or the wrong hose or cuff being used in relation to the patient mode.CALIBRATING, PLEASE WAIT (ERR# 10). The Propaq CS monitor periodically recalibrates the NIBP channel to ensure it can properly make NIBP determinations. Normal monitor operation continues while the NIBP channel is calibrating. If the NIBP channel has not updated its calibration in 15 minutes, the channel will briefly deactivate until a new calibration has occurred.LOW BATTERY, NIBP DISABLED (ERR# 11). The battery lacks sufficient voltage to be able to operate the NIBP channel. Connect the Propaq CS monitor to the ac power adapter.SERVICE REQUIRED, NIBP DISABLED (ERR# 12). Have the monitor serviced.CUFF TOO LARGE FOR PATIENT MODE (ERR# 13). The monitor detects a cuff too large for the current patient mode. First, verify the patient mode. If the patient mode is correct, confirm the cuff size is correct and make sure the cuff fits snugly. If this alert occurs in Neonatal Mode, change the patient mode to Pediatric Mode and check the alarm limits. If the alert occurs in Pediatric Mode, change to Adult Mode and check the alarm limits. Note that different pressures and retries are used for each mode as stated in “NIBP Specifications” on page 104.KINKED OR NEONATE HOSE (ERR# 14). This message occurs when a hose is kinked or when a neonate hose is detected in the adult patient mode. Check the hose or the patient mode selection.ARTIFACT PRESENT, MINIMIZE ARTIFACT (ERR# 15). The monitor has detected too much artifact to allow accurate readings. Take steps to reduce artifact. Position the patient’s limb away from the body so the applied cuff is not in contact with the patient’s body or any other object such as a bed rail. If the Smartcuf motion artifact filter is on, make sure that the ECG leads are properly connected to perform ECG monitoring during NIBP. If the Smartcuf motion artifact filter is off, consider turning it on (and connect ECG if not already connected).

88 Protocol Systems, Inc.Replace Power Adapter FusesIf the green battery charging light is off and the ac power adapter does not provide power to the monitor even when all connections are intact, the adapter fuses may need to be replaced. This procedure must be performed by a qualified service person. To change fuses:1. Unplug the removable power cord from the ac power source and adapter.2. Using a small, flat-blade screwdriver, carefully pry the fuse module away from the adapter.3. Remove and replace both fuses with the correct type specified on the adapter. The fuse module can contain spare fuses.Note  Replace both fuses at the same time, even if only one fuse has opened due to an overcurrent situation. The unopened fuse may be damaged and unreliable.Caution Spare fuses are contained in housings next to the fuses in the fuse module as shown in the illustration. Between the fuses is a small printed-circuit board (PCB) that sets the power adapter to the desired ac mains voltage. When handling the fuse module, the PCB may slide out.Make sure the voltage selector indicates the proper ac input voltage. If you change the adapter voltage setting, you must replace all fuses to match the appropriate type specified on the bottom of the power adapter. The only fuses contained in the power adapter when shipped from the factory are fuses specified for the original adapter input voltage setting.Replace each fuse only with the specified type (see page 114).If the small PCB between the fuses has slipped out of place, slide it back into place in the fuse module, and verify that the voltage setting indicated in the window on the fuse module is correct. If the voltage setting is incorrect, simply slide the PCB out of the fuse module, rotate it 180° and slide it back into place.FusePowerSwitchVoltageSelector andIndicatorSpare FuseFuse ModulePower Adapter

Propaq CS Directions for Use 109ReferenceAlarms SpecificationsCharacteristic SpecificationIndicators (see table below) Red indicator light: flashing light indicates patient alarm; continuously on indicates patient alarms are suspended.Yellow indicator light: continuously on indicates one or more alarm limits have been disabled; flashing light indicates an equipment alert.Tone Frequency 900 HertzTone is steady for a patient alarm and sounds for 1 second every 4 seconds for an equipment alert.Selectable Tone Volume Low, Medium, HighLimits Settable on all parametersControl Automatic preset or manual settingsAlarm Priority Highest priority: Apnea, then patient alarmsLowest priority: Equipment alertsAlarm on Tachycardias Most tachycardias will alarm in less than 8 seconds. These include AAMI 3.1.2.1 part f. waveforms. Certain multifocal tachycardias may initially alarm as “low rate.”Apnea delay setting Adult/Ped = 6, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 secondsNeonate = 6, 10, 15, 20 secondsAlarm Holdoff Time Period11. To help minimize false alarms, the monitor briefly delays or “holds off” triggering alarms for limit violations for these vital signs. After the alarm holdoff period begins, if the monitor detects that the patient’s vital sign has returned to acceptable limits, the monitor cancels the alarm holdoff. The next time a vital sign limit is violated, the monitor starts a new holdoff period.HR/PR = 3 seconds (except NIBP PR)SpO2 = 10 secondsRR/BR = 5 secondsAudio Alarm Holdoff with Acuity When a Propaq CS monitor in Adult or Pediatric Mode is connected to an Acuity System, the audio alarms at the bedside monitor can be delayed up to 4 minutes and 15 seconds. The delay time is selected in Acuity software at the time of Acuity installation. Visual alarm indications and Nurse Call alarm are not delayed.
