the start of pressurization to
pressurize properly.
During interval measurements,
"AUTO" is used.

Measuring the Blood Pressure
Caution
If the instrument malfunctions during measurement, for example, the air is not
exhausted, remove the cuff from the patient immediately.
Blood pressure measuring procedure
1. Press the NIBP START/STOP key to start a measurement.
2. When "AUTO" is selected for pressurization, the cuff pressure is adjusted automatically to the
patient's blood pressure value. Otherwise, the cuff is pressurized to the set value.
3. After measurement, the air is rapidly exhausted from the cuff and the measurement values are
displayed. When the pulse rate by the ECG or SpO
2
unit is not available, the pulse rate obtained by
blood pressure measurement is displayed.
4. When the blood pressure can not be detected, the measurement is repeated three times.
Note
•
Make sure that the cuff is at the same level as the patient's heart.
•
Advise the patient to sit comfortably and relax, remain still and keep quiet during measurement.
•
To cancel a measurement that is in progress, press the NISB START/STOP key.
•
When an error occurs during measurement, the error code appears in the SYS display and the error
message appears at the bottom of the display.
