A V-Tach alarm is activated at the Panorama Central Station as follows:

• The V-Tach lethal arrhythmia alarm is activated when the configured number of 

consecutive PVCs is reached at a rate equal to or greater than the V-Tach threshold. 
The range of the V-Tach rate is 100 to 180 beats. The range of the V-Tach threshold is

Non-Lethal Arrhythmia Alarms

A Non-Lethal Arrhythmia is an arrhythmia that is most likely not life threatening to a patient. 
Bigeminy, Bradycardia, Couplet, Irregular Heart Rate, Pause, PVC, Run, Trigeminy, and 
Ventricular Rhythm (V-Rhythm) alarms are non-lethal arrhythmia alarms, and depending on 
the alarm, default to Alarm Priority 2 or 3 (except for Bradycardia).

Bigeminy Alarm

The Bigeminy alarm is activated at the Panorama Central Station when three or more 
cycles of one PVC coupled to one normal beat are detected. 

The Bigeminy alarm has priority settings of 2, 3, and OFF. When the setting is: 

• Set  to  2, the Panorama Central Station produces an Alarm Priority 2 sound once the 

condition is identified. 

• Set  to  3, the Panorama Central Station produces an Alarm Priority 3 sound once the 

condition is identified.

• Set  to  OFF, the Panorama Central Station does not produce any audio alarm indicators 

for the Bigeminy alarm condition.

• The Bigeminy alarm causes a yellow Bigeminy text message to display in the Patient 

Status line.

Bradycardia (Brady) Alarm 

The Brady alarm is activated at the Panorama Central Station when the heart rate falls to a 
value 10% lower than the user selected value for low heart rate alarm.
