The Alerts page gives you a centralised view of every alert that has fired across your facility. You can filter by severity to focus on what matters most right now, review sensor readings that triggered each alert, and view the alert rules that define your facility’s monitoring posture — all without refreshing the page.Documentation Index

Opening the Alerts page
Select Alerts from the left-hand sidebar navigation. The page loads with the Alert activity view active, showing the most recent alerts at the top of the queue. The header area displays three live summary statistics:- Active alerts — alerts that have fired and not yet been resolved
- Critical open — the number of unresolved critical alerts; if this is greater than zero, a “Needs review” notice appears in red
- Rules live — how many alert rules are currently enabled out of the total configured
Alert data updates in real time. You do not need to refresh the page to see new alerts as they arrive.
Reading the alert queue
Each row in the alert queue shows you everything you need to assess the event quickly.| Column | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Severity indicator | A coloured dot — red for critical, amber for warning, cyan for info — plus a severity badge |
| Device or bed | The label or ID of the sensor or bed that triggered the alert |
| Timestamp | When the alert was triggered, displayed in your local time |
| Sensor readings | Up to three sensor values from the payload that triggered the alert (e.g. “Breathing Rate 6 · SpO₂ 88”) |
| Status | Active (not yet resolved) or Resolved (followed up or cleared) |
Filtering by severity
Use the filter buttons above the alert list to narrow the queue to a specific severity level.- All severities — shows every alert regardless of severity
- Critical — shows only critical (red) alerts
- Warning — shows only warning (amber) alerts
- Info — shows only informational (cyan) alerts
Switching between Alert activity and Rules
The Alerts page has two views. Switch between them using the tab buttons at the top of the list area.- Alert activity
- Rules
Shows all triggered alerts sorted by most recent first. This is the default view. Use it to monitor what has happened and identify any open events that have not been attended to.The same severity filters apply here, so you can scope the queue to just the category you need.
Alert rules
Alert rules are the conditions that tell Sentalis when to generate an alert. A rule specifies a sensor field, a comparison operator (greater than, less than, or equals), a threshold value, and a severity level. For example, a rule might read: “If breathing_rate is less than 8, generate a critical alert.” Rules are created and edited by administrators. As a clinical or operational staff member, you can view the active rules to understand your facility’s monitoring coverage. If you think a rule threshold needs adjustment, contact your facility administrator.Enabling and disabling a rule
Enabling and disabling a rule
On the Rules view, each rule card has a toggle in the top-right corner. Flip the toggle to pause or resume the rule. A paused rule is marked Paused and will not generate new alerts until re-enabled.Changes take effect immediately. Only administrators have permission to toggle rules.
Creating a new alert rule (admins only)
Creating a new alert rule (admins only)
Select New alert rule from the top of the Alerts page to open the rule creation dialog. Provide a name, choose the sensor field to monitor, set the operator and threshold value, and select a severity level. Select Create Rule to save.The new rule becomes active immediately and appears in the Rules view.
