ENGLISH
Prior to use of the cuff, empty the cuff until there is no residual air inside it to ensure accurate measurement.
Do NOT twist the air tube or put heavy things on it.
When unplugging the air tube, hold the head of the connector and pull it out.
The NIBP measurement will not be affected when the monitor is connected to the patient on whom the electro-
surgical unit and defibrillator is being used.
The appearance of arrhythmia results in irregular heart beat which may affect the accuracy of NIBP measurement.
It is recommended to take the measurement again at this situation.
The blood pressure measurements determined with this device are equivalent to those obtained by a trained
observer using the cuff/stethoscope auscultatory method, within the limits prescribed by the American National
Standard, manual, electronic, or automated sphygmomanometers.
The monitor can be used on the patient who are pregnant or pre-eclamptic, but close attention should be paid to
such patients.
The performance of NIBP function can be affected by the extremes of temperature, humidity and altitude, please
use it within the appropriate working environment.
9.3 Measurement Limitations
1. Serious angiospasm, vasoconstriction, or too weak pulse.
2. When extremely low or high heart rate or serious arrhythmia of the patient occurs. Especially auricular fibrillation
will lead to unreliable or impossible measurement.
3. Do not take the measurement when the patient is connected with an artificial heart-lung machine.
4. Do not take the measurement when the patient uses diuresis or vasodilator.
5. When the patient is suffering from major hemorrhage, hypovolemic shock and other conditions with rapid blood
pressure change or when the patient has too low body temperature, the reading will not be reliable, for reduced
peripheral blood flow will lead to reduced arterial pulsation.
6. Patient with hyperadiposis;
9.4 Measurement Mode
There are three measuring mode for NIBP measurement:
Manual:
measurement on demand.
Auto:
continually repeated measurements at set intervals.
STAT:
continually rapid series of measurements over a five minute period, then return to the previous mode.
9.5 Setting Up the NIBP Measurement
9.5.1 Preparing to Measure NIBP
1. Power on the monitor.
