Monitoring IBP
11-3
WARNING
z
If measuring intracranial pressure (ICP) with a sitting patient, level the transducer
with the top of the patient’s ear. Incorrect leveling may give incorrect values.
11.4 Understanding the IBP Display
The IBP measurement is displayed on the monitor as a waveform and numeric pressures. The
figure below shows the waveform and numerics for the Art pressure. For different pressures,
this display may be slightly different.
1. Waveform
2. Systolic pressure
3. Diastolic pressure
4. Mean pressure
5. Pressure unit
For some pressures, the parameter window may show the mean pressure only. For different
pressures, their default unit may be different. If the Art and ICP pressures are measured
simultaneously, the parameter window of the ICP display will show numeric CPP, which is
obtained by subtracting ICP from the Art mean.
