Real-time graphs

Graphs display data from a device in a graphical format. You can view graphs that display device data in real-time during a titration.

NOTE: The Enable live graphs toggle must first be turned on under Options.

To review real-time data graphs:
  1. Click the graph Graph_icon.PNG icon.

    Displayed graphs will match the applied settings on the PAP device.

  2. To reorder the displayed graphs for various settings, click and drag the grab grab_icon.PNGicon

Optional settings that can be applied:

Time span: Sets view to display as little as 10 seconds of data, or as much as one hour.

Reset zoom: Returns the view to 30 seconds

Session: Displays three colors

  • Blue: indicates the currently visible window

  • White: indicates no recorded data

  • Grey: indicates undisplayed data.

Live view: Returns to current data.

Configure traces: Sets the displayed graphs, graph colors and parameters.

Red vertical cursor line: Snaps to your cursor and displays a popup of therapy values for that timestamp.

Mask pressure graph

Trigger and Cycle therapy events display on the real-time Mask pressure graph with these symbols:

  • Top axis marker presents a circle with SpontaneousCycle (blue fill), SpontaneousTiMinCycle (purple fill), or TimedCycle (orange outline) events only.

  • Bottom axis marker presents a triangle with SpontaneousTrigger (blue fill) or TimedTrigger (orange outline) events only.

Description

Ellipse_15.png

Spontaneous Cycle: Spontaneous cycled breath marker indicates patient-cycled breath (i.e inspiratory time is between Ti min and Ti max).

Ellipse_17__1_.png

Spontaneous TiMin Cycle: Spontaneous TiMin cycled breath marker indicates patient-cycled breath with inspiration held until TiMin. (i.e. inspiratory time equal TiMin).

Ellipse_16.png

Timed Cycle: Timed cycled breath marker indicates machine-cycled breath (i.e. inspiratory time equal Ti in PAC and T mode or Timax in S and ST mode.

Spontaneous Trigger: Spontaneous triggered breath marker indicates patient-triggered breath (i.e. the patient has initiated the breath).

Vector_10.png

Timed Trigger: Timed triggered breath marker indicates machine-triggered breath (i.e. breath delivered at the set backup rate or breath rate).
