Abstract

See full text

A defibrillator/monitor (10) employing a message processing routine (60) that controls the way in which information from a plurality of sensing circuits (28) is communicated to an attending physician by output devices (30). In that regard, each of the various conditions monitored by the sensing circuits has a priority associated therewith. Each condition may be associated with one or more of five different types of messages: an initial display message, steady state display message, initial sound message, steady state sound message, and display icon message. The different messages, like the different conditions, may also be prioritized. The particular message or messages produced by the output devices in response to a particular set of conditions is then dependent upon the relative prioritization of the conditions and messages as evaluated by a microcomputer (18) in accordance with the routine.
