1
Enter the Wave menu of the measurement.
2 Select Label.
3 Choose a label from the list.
The monitor automatically applies the scale, color, etc. settings stored in the Profile for the label you
select. You can change scale settings in Monitoring Mode, but color can only be changed in the
monitor’s Configuration Mode.
Any labels already being used in the monitor are shown “grayed-out” in the list and cannot be selected.
Give me an example Let’s imagine you used a Press module to monitor your previous patient’s CVP.
Now you want to use the same module to measure ABP with a new patient. You’ve set up your arterial
line. When you connect the pressure transducer to the module, the pressure shown on the screen still
uses the CVP color and wave scale and is labeled CVP. To rectify this, just change the pressure label to
ABP. Now the pressure has the correct color, the wave is shown in the correct scale, and the
appropriate alarm limits for ABP are active.
Resolving Label Conflicts
Each label must be unique, that is, it can only be assigned once. You cannot monitor two pressures
labelled “ICP” at the same time. If you need to use two identical pressures, you must assign different
labels to them, for example, P and ICP.
Measurement labels are stored in the measurement device (module or measurement server). If you try
to use two measurement devices that have identical labels, this causes a label conflict in the monitor.
Depending on your configuration, the monitor will either
resolve the conflict automatically, by assigning a new, generic label
to the most recently connected conflicting label (e.g. a second FAP
label could be changed to ABP)
•display the Measurement Selection window automatically
for you to resolve the conflict
take no action, you must enter the Measurement
Selection window and resolve the conflict
All the currently available measurement devices are depicted in the Measurement Selection
window. Any measurement labels causing a label conflict are shown in red. If a measurement device is
connected but currently unavailable, for example, because it was deactivated due to a label conflict, the
device is shown “grayed-out”.
To resolve a label conflict,
1 Select the measurement selection key or select Main Setup -> Measurement Selection
