You can start the NIBP measurement using either the direct function keys on the module or on
the side panel, or by pressing the
NIBP
key on the Command Board.
In the beginning of the measurement, sys and dia labels are replaced by the inflation limit
indication (
Infant, Child, Adult
) for five seconds. The cuff pressure is displayed in the mean
pressure value field.
If motion artifacts are detected, the monitor automatically holds deflation until the motion
stops (maximum of 30 seconds). If the artifacts prevent proper measurement, a new
measurement starts automatically.
When the measurement is ready, you can hear a short beep and see the result numbers
flashing.
WARNING
The monitor sets the inflation pressure automatically according to the
previous measurement. Discharge the patient from the monitor to reset the
inflation limit before measuring a new patient.
During measurement
•
Observe the cuffed limb frequently. Measurement may impair blood circulation. Intervals
below 10 minutes and STAT measurements are not recommended for extended periods
of time.
•
Make sure that the tubes are not bent, pressed or stretched. Measurement may be
impaired.
•
Blood pressure values may be affected by a change in the patient's position.
•
The presence of some arrhythmias during NIBP measurement may increase the time
required for the measurement. For details, see
“Functioning of NIBP measurement during
NIBP
