Overview
The monitor can acquire and process non-invasive blood pressure (NBP) signals and
display the results. Blood pressure measurements are determined by the oscillometric
method and are equivalent to those obtained by intra-arterial methods, within the
limits prescribed by the Association for Advancement of Medical Instrumentation,
Electronic Automated Sphygmomanometers (AAMI/ANSI SP-10).
The monitor’s NBP system inflates and then deflates a pneumatic cuff wrapped
around the patient’s arm or leg. A hose links the cuff to the monitor, which determines
systolic, diastolic, and mean blood pressures for adult, pediatric, or neonatal patients.
The monitor can initiate blood pressure measurements singly, at set intervals, or
continuously over a 5-minute period.
The monitor can be configured to sound an attention tone whenever an NBP
measurement is completed (see page 2-9 for information).
Display Features
The monitor displays non-invasive blood pressure in the form of numerical values and
trends. There is no NBP waveform. For information on trended data, see chapter 6,
Trends.
The NBP parameter box shows the latest readings for mean, systolic and diastolic
pressure. See page 2-5 for more information on prioritizing and displaying parameter
boxes.
NOTE: NBP should be calibrated yearly by your hospital’s technical personnel or
other qualified personnel as described in the monitor’s Service manual (see “Safety
Considerations” on page 6).
