Propaq Encore display The display shows waveforms, vital sign numeric values, Propaq Encore status, and alarm information in different windows. Different vital sign numeric values (such as heart rate and blood pressures) have upper and lower range limits. If the Propaq Encore detects a vital sign value outside of the Propaq's measurable range, the monitor displays – – – (below the range) or + + + (above the range) instead of the vital sign value. WARNING The Propaq Encore will show + + + for HR numerics between 301350 beats per minute. Above 350 beats per minute, it may display incorrectly low heart rates, due to intermittent picking of R-waves. Note
Due to differences in software versions and standards required by different countries, the displays shown in this reference guide may be slightly different than the display on your Propaq Encore.
