Invasive pressures
●
Do not turn on the IABP algorithm unless a balloon pump is in use.
●
If two pressure measurement modules that map to the same pressure channel
are connected, the first detected pressure measurement module is assigned to
the indicated pressure channel.
●
A pressure channel is activated when a pressure transducer interface cable is
connected to the PDM (Masimo), PDM (Nellcor), Tram 451, Tram 451N5, Tram
451M, Dual BP, BP/CO, BP, or BP/Dual Temp, or E-COP module, or when a pressure
transducer is connected to the E-COPSv, E-PSMP, E-PP, E-P, or E-PT module.
●
A pressure channel is deactivated when the pressure transducer interface cable is
disconnected from the PDM (Masimo), PDM (Nellcor), Tram 451, Tram 451N5, Tram
451M, Dual BP, BP/CO, BP, or BP/Dual Temp, or E-COP module, or when the pressure
transducer is disconnected from the or E-COPSv, E-PSMP, E-PP, E-P, or E-PT module.
●
E-modules: A deactivated pressure channel does not release the assigned pressure
channel. To release an assigned pressure channel, remove the module from the
system.
●
PCWP: Follow your care unit’s policy and procedures for obtaining PCWP
measurements, including balloon inflation duration.
●
SPV and PPV: Measurement is reliable only when the patient is mechanically
ventilated.
