FEATURES
Intended Use
Life Scope G5/G7 is intended for continuous
monitoring, recording, and alarming of multiple
physiological parameters of adults, pediatrics
and neonates in the OR, recovery room, ICU,
CCU, HCU, NICU, ER, ward and other areas.
Several types of input unit are available. See the
chart in the following page.
For CSM-1500, an input unit can be directly
connected to the main unit and can be used as
an integrated monitor.
For CSM-1700, an input unit can be connected to
the DAU (Data Acquisition Unit) and the input
part can be installed away from the main unit.
Transport function
Life Scope G5/G7 supports transport. Patient
information and review data can be transferred to
another bed by disconnecting the input unit from
the source monitor and connecting it to the
destination monitor. (Transport function requires
an optional QM-600P memory unit in the input
unit.)
A Life Scope PT BSM-1700 series transport
monitor can also be used as an input unit for the
Life Scope G5/G7 bedside monitor.
After connecting the input unit to the destination
bedside monitor in the network, the data in the
input unit is automatically transferred to the
bedside monitor and central monitor. All patient
information, including trend and waveforms, is
automatically transferred to maintain one
seamless patient record.
Nihon Kohden's networking technology enables
seamless monitoring across different central
monitors. You can see continuous past data even
from a different central monitor at a different site.
Up to 11 MULTI connectors are available.
Multilink connectors
A multilink connector receives data from an
external device such as an anesthesia machine
or ventilator and the monitor displays the
external device data with other monitoring data.

helps respiration management of patients
connected to an anesthesia machine. (Requires
an optional GF-220R multi-gas/flow unit.)
BIS monitoring
BIS monitoring helps clinicians determine and
administer the precise amount of anesthesia
drug to meet the needs of each individual patient.
PPV/SPV
PPV (Pulse Pressure Variability) and SPV
(Systolic Pressure Variability) is an indicator of
intravascular volume. It is useful in guiding fluid
therapy for patients receiving mechanical
ventilation.
esCCO
The optional QL-005P esCCO software/ QL-006P
esCCO/Hemodynamics review program enable
esCCO measurement. esCCO is a new
technology to calculate cardiac output
non-invasively and continuously. esCCO uses
PWTT (Pulse Wave Transit Time) which is
obtained from the SpO2 and ECG-signals. It can
continuously display esCCO, esCCI, esSV,
esSVI, esSVR and es SVRI.

CVP_ET
Respiration affects the intrapleural pressure and
makes the CVP value unstable. Nihon Kohden’s
original technology of CVP_ET (end tidal CVP)
uses the mainstream CO2 signals to calculate the
CVP at the end tidal CO2 point. CVP_ET provides
a stable and physiologically correct CVP value.

Mainstream EtCO2 for both intubated and
non-intubated patients
Life Scope G5/G7 can use the compact and
lightweight TG-980P & TG-920P cap-ONE
mainstream CO2 sensor kit to obtain smooth and
accurate EtCO2 and respiration rate within 5 or
10 seconds. Unique nasal adapter effectively
catches the nasal and oral expired CO2 without
dilution for non-intubated patient. cap-ONE mask
provides ETCO2 measurement and oxygen
supply for non-intubated patients.
8-channel EEG
EEG monitoring is available with the optional
AE-918P neuro unit. Up to 8 channels of EEG
can be monitored.
CSA/DSA
CSA and DSA show the power in each EEG
frequency band plotted over time. CSA and DSA
can help spot EEG trends and changes in brain
function which might not be obvious from the raw
waveforms.
CCU:
12 lead ECG simultaneous display
12-lead ECG waveform can be displayed on the
home screen. This makes it easier to recognize
multi-focus VPC, ST change and ventricular
hypertrophy.
12-lead ECG analysis
The 12-lead ECG analysis of Life Scope G5/G7
has the same accuracy and reliability as a
dedicated electrocardiograph. There is no need
to change electrodes to another instrument.
Arrhythmia detection
Upgraded arrhythmia detection lets you analyze
multi-channel ECG. The multi-template matching
method reduces false alarms and assures high
quality detection. 25 arrhythmia items can be
detected.
ST display and review
ST waveforms of all ECG leads can be displayed.
The reference ST waveforms are also displayed
so you can see changes in the ST waves. You
can adjust the ISO point, J point and ST point for
ST level measurement.
ST review shows the ST level on a multi-axis
chart. This helps the clinicians easily recognize
ST change and location in the heart.
NICU:
Neonate arrhythmia algorithm
Life Scope G5/G7 has software for monitoring
neonates. A dedicated neonate arrhythmia
recognition algorithm recognizes narrow QRS.
NIBP inflation pressure for neonate
Connection of a neonate NIBP air hose is
detected and the inflation pressure range is
automatically changed for patient safety.
OCRG
OCRG (oxycardiorespirogram) combines
compressed trends of beat-to-beat heart rate,
respiration, and oxygenation levels. OCRG can
help doctors detect the cause of apnea attack.
Dual SpO2
Monitoring the difference in SpO2 between right
upper limb (pre-ductal) and lower limb
(post-ductal) is useful to diagnose PPHN
(Persistent Pulmonary Hypertension of Newborn),
decide the timing to start and stop treatment as
well as the operation schedule.
aEEG (amplitude-integrated EEG)
Because the brain of a newborn baby is
immature, it is difficult to detect seizures by
observation. Life Scope G5/G7 provides aEEG
which makes it easier to detect brain seizure.
aEEG monitoring is also becoming important in
hypothermia therapy for neonatal
encephalopathy.
Mainstream CO2 sensors for neonate
Mainstream CO2 monitoring for neonate is
available with a cap-ONE TG-980P CO2 sensor
kit. The airway adapter YG-213T has a dead
space of only 0.5 ml.
PI (Pulse-amplitude Index)
The Pulse-amplitude Index indicates the
percentage of pulsatile signal in the entire
transmitted IR signal. PI supports to assess
peripheral perfusion.
(PI is displayed when using Nihon Kohden SpO2
sensors and Masimo sensors)
SQI bar graph for SpO2
The SQI (signal quality index) bar graph shows
the pulse waveform quality for SpO2
measurement. (SQI bar graph is available only
with Nihon Kohden SpO2)
Non-adhesive SpO2 probe
The TL-535U (P206) and TL-260T (P205A)
Multi-site Y probe are designed so that the
adhesive of the attachment tape does not stick to
the delicate skin of neonates or low birth weight
infants.
Network
LS-NET (Life Scope Networking)
You can connect Nihon Kohden central monitors
and bedside monitors by LS-NET (Life Scope
Networking with Ethernet LAN).
7
Interbed
When Life Scope bedside monitors are
connected in an LS-NET network, you can
exchange and view data of other bedside
monitors. Both individual display and 20 bed
display are available.
Connecting to a network printer without a central
monitor
You can connect a network printer to a Life
Scope G5/G7 monitor on the LS-NET through the
LAN port.
You can print real time and review data on A4
papers.
Other Features
Screen capture
You can save Life Scope G5/G7 screen capture
images and transfer PNG data by USB.
This is helpful for preparing clinical reports.
*QM-150P is required.
iNIBP
Nihon Kohden's unique iNIBP inflation algorithm
provides fast and painless measurement of NIBP.
iNIBP is available.
Nihon Kohden’s YAWARA CUFF 2 NIBP cuffs
prevent bruising, increase patient comfort and
reduce noise for more accurate NIBP
measurement.
PWTT-triggered NIBP measurement
PWTT (pulse wave transit time) is continuously
and non-invasively measured from the ECG and
SpO2. If a sudden, critical circulation change
happens between the periodic NIBP
measurements, PWTT may detect it and trigger
NIBP measurement to confirm it.
Respiration calculation
Life Scope G5/G7 can calculate respiration
dynamics, the flow rates and dosages for
medication titration. This is the ideal solution for
medical and paramedical personnel who need
rapid dose calculation. In addition to preset
drugs, you can add custom medications.
Graphical and tabular trends
Up to 72 hours of graphic and tabular trends of
all parameters can be saved and reviewed.
*When transport function is ON, up to 24 hours.
Full disclosure
Up to 72 hours of full disclosure waveforms for 5
parameters can be saved and reviewed.
*When transport function is ON, up to 24 hours.
Data time is synchronized between review windows
When one review window is changed to another
review window, the new review window open in
the same time as the first review window. For
example, to check the waveform information for
the time of an alarm file in the Alarm History
window, select the corresponding file and change
the full disclosure window. The full disclosure
waveform for the corresponding time is displayed.
This makes it easy to compare various vital sign
data for the patient at the selected time between
the review windows.
Alarm escalation
The alarm escalation function automatically
escalates the alarm priority to a selected level if
the alarm continues or SpO2 drops. Alarm
escalation applies to vital alarms (SpO2 limit,
apnea and high pressure system IBP) and
technical alarms (ECG and SpO2). Alarm
escalation can contribute to decreased medical
accidents and improved quality of care.
Sleep mode
Sleep mode prevents the monitor from disturbing
the patient during sleep or other times. The
screen is darkened and the sync sound and
alarm indicator are turned off. Sleep mode is
available when the Life Scope G5/G7 bedside
monitor is connected to the central monitor.
Drug calculation
Life Scope G5/G7 can calculate the flow rates
and dosages for medication titration. This is the
ideal solution for medical and paramedical
personnel who need rapid dose calculation. In
addition to preset drugs, you can add custom
medications.
Synthesized 18-lead ECG (synECi18)
Synthesized 18-lead ECG derives the waveforms of
the right chest leads (V3R, V4R, and V5R) and back
leads (V7, V8, and V9) from the standard 12-lead
ECG data.
The measurement procedure is the same as the
standard 12-lead ECG but more information can be
obtained.
18-lead synthesized ECG is expected to be useful in
detecting right side and posterior infarction.
Optional software QL-004P is required.
