Manual NIBP Measurements and General NIBP
Measurement Information
1.
Select a pressure cuff that is appropriate for the size of the patient. Use the chart below
as a guideline.
A cuff that is too small for the limb will result in erroneously high readings. The correct size of
the pressure cuff for a given patient has, among other considerations, a direct bearing on the
accuracy of the obtained NIBP measurements. Base your selection of the cuff size on the limb
circumference of the patient. The table above indicates the available cuffs for use with the
Accutorr Plus. The design dimensions of the cuffs and their intended uses are based on
recommendations of the American Heart Association.
NOTE:
The cuffs that are used with the Accutorr Plus use special
snap on connectors.
WARNING: Use only authorized accessories. Use of unauthorized
accessories may result in erroneous measurements.
