Silenced NIBP alarms
The silence alarm behavior is different for NIBP than for any other parameter. Unlike
the continuously monitored parameters, NIBP is measured periodically. As a result,
silencing a physiological NIBP alarm will clear that active alarm until the next NIBP
measurement is taken. If the new measurement is outside the alarm limits, the alarm
is activated again.
NIBP recheck after alarm violation
NOTE
PDM and PSM only.
If the NIBP value exceeds the alarm limits and the NIBP alarm priority selection is
Escalating
, a new measurement takes place automatically. If the NIBP measurement
is taken manually, the recheck measurement is taken immediately after the first
measurement. When the NIBP measurement is taken automatically, the recheck
measurement is delayed by 30 seconds before the second measurement is taken.
NIBP measurement description
The acquisition modules use oscillometric technology to acquire NIBP. Oscillometry
is the most commonly used means of indirect blood pressure measurement in
automated devices. It is based on the principle that pulsatile blood flow through an
artery creates oscillations of the arterial wall.
Oscillometric devices use a blood pressure cuff to sense these oscillations that appear
as tiny pulsations in cuff pressure. By measuring and analyzing at various cuff
