monitor.
Essential Performance
The essential performance features are defined as blood pressure measurement with:
▪ Error tolerances of the pressure gauge and measurement results within the required limits according to IEC
80601-2-30.
▪ Maximum change value in blood pressure determination according to IEC 80601-2-30.
▪ Power delivery (pressure supply to the cuff) within the set limits according to IEC 80601-2-30
▪
An error is issued in the event that successful blood pressure measurement is impossible.
