ST/AR Configuration Reporting Tools

This section provides a list of the 7-character encoded ST/AR configuration parameters that
display as part of the alarm information on alarm strip recordings. This information can be
used to identify problems in the operation of ST/AR arrhythmia analysis as well as in the
interpretation of results obtained by the algorithm. The information is encoded with a [ ]
after the time stamp.
Note The ST/AR diagnostic tool encoding scheme is only available on SDN and Telemetry beds.
The items are coded into a 7 character string, broken down as follows:
