1.2.4 NIBP Module Overview
The Duo monitor determines non-invasive blood pressure using the oscillometric method. The
blood pressure cuff is inflated until the pressure in the cuff is sufficient to block blood flow in
the brachial artery. As the cuff begins to deflate, blood beginning to flow through the artery
will cause the artery to pulsate. These pulsations are transmitted through the blood pressure
cuff and connecting hose to the pressure transducer in the NIBP module. The output of the
pressure transducer is an analog pulsating signal. This signal is filtered by a high-pass filter
and then amplified. The amplified analog signal is then converted to a digital signal. The
digital signal is then processed to determine the systolic, diastolic, and mean pressures as
well as heart rate.
