Accutorr Plus™ Operating Instructions
The Accutorr Plus is available in three models—one basic and two advanced:
1. Accutorr Plus with Lithium Ion Battery
—the Accutorr Plus basic model, which
measures non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP) and Pulse Rate
2. Accutorr Plus with Nellcor® Pulse Oximetry and Lithium Ion Battery
Accutorr Plus advanced model, which includes basic model features, and adds Liquid
Crystal Display (LCD), Trend Screen and SpO
2
(Nellcor)
3. Accutorr Plus with Masimo SET® Pulse Oximetry and Lithium Ion
—the Accutorr Plus advanced model, which includes basic model features, and
adds Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), Trend Screen and SpO
2
(Masimo)
In this manual, when a feature is described and it only refers to a particular model, it will be
noted. When the name Accutorr Plus is used, it refers to all three models.
All Accutorr Plus models are supplied with Lithium Ion Battery Technology. All models
measure NIBP and pulse rate. The Accutorr Plus features front panel digital displays for Mean
Arterial Pressures, Temperature, and Time; and extra large displays for the Systolic, Diastolic,
Pulse Rate, and SpO
2
. The Accutorr Plus advanced models incorporate an LCD to view
stored measurements (trend); to access a menu system for setting the alarm volume and SpO
2
beep volume; and to display the view angle. Advanced models also add automatic SpO
2
measurement function with your choice of Nellcor or Masimo SpO
2
, depending upon your
model.
On all units, temperature can be measured with the optional Predictive Thermometer Module
(PTM) or the optional AccuTemp IR Infrared Thermometer Module. All units can also be
optionally equipped with a recorder module for documenting NIBP, pulse rate, SpO
2
and
temperature information. Each printout includes the time and date of each measurement
taken.
The Accutorr Plus can store up to 100 measurements in memory. These 100 measurements
are shared by the number of patients that are monitored by the Accutorr Plus. When only one
patient is monitored, then that one patient can have up to 100 measurements stored. When
more than one patient is monitored each patient can have any number of measurements
stored as long as the total number of stored measurements for all patients equals 100 or less.
The Accutorr Plus has an Interval Mode which enables the unit to take automatic NIBP
measurements at timed intervals.
The Accutorr Plus allows setting of alarm limits. All alarm violations are indicated by an
audible alarm tone, flashing front panel displays and brackets around the violated parameter
on the recorder print outs.
The Accutorr Plus also has the capability of operating from a battery.
