3.7 Using the Pouch
BP10 is not intended for direct contact with the patient’s skin. During normal use, BP10
should be worn over clothing, in a pocket, or in a pouch. The waterproof pouch with
clear front is an appropriate means for holding BP10. For details about the specified
pouch, refer to
"Miscellaneous " on page 11-3 .
To secure the pouch, follow the recommended procedure:
1. Place BP10 into the pouch with the NIBP hose exiting from the pouch opening.
2. Pinch the snap-fastener to close the pouch.
3. Secure the pouch on the patient with ties around the patient’s shoulder and under
the arm, as shown in Figure 3-6 and Figure 3-7.
4. Apply the cuff and hose. You can place the hose around neck (as shown in Figure
3-6) or secure the hose on the waist tie (as shown in Figure 3-7).
5. Prepare the patient and start NIBP measurement. Refer to Preparing the Patient 6-
4 and Taking a Measurement 6-5 for details.
WARNING
•
While using a pouch with BP10 on the patient, consider the patient’s
condition. Be careful about the placement of the straps, as the straps could
present a strangulation hazard.
