Infl ation Pressure
300 mmHg max.; during infl ation the infl ation pressure
automatically adapts to patient's BP
Infl ation Rate
between approx. 6 seconds (to 140 mmHg) and
approx. 18 seconds (to 300 mmHg)
Max. Cuff Pressure
300 mmHg
Cuff Defl ation Method
pulse-dependent defl ation rate
approx. 3 mmHg/beat or approx. 3 mmHg/s
Calibration
calibration with external pressure meter
Artifact Rejection
automatic artifact rejection and comparison of the rest-
ing BP readings from both methods for plausibility
