Monitoring
NIBP
If artifact is so severe while Smartcuf is enabled that it affects the accuracy of an NIBP measurement,
that measurement is marked with a special symbol on the display and on printouts:
There may be some situations where it is desirable to disable Smartcuf. This may include situations
with very extreme motion artifact, certain types of arrhythmias, or other situations where it is not
possible to obtain a good ECG signal. NIBP measurements can still be performed when Smartcuf is
disabled.
To disable Smartcuf, from the Main Menu press
NIBP
to display the NIBP Menu and set Smartcuf to
OFF.
Take the NIPB Reading
1.
Select a cuff and hose appropriate for the patient. Select cuff size based on limb circumference.
Use only hoses and cuffs listed in the Protocol Systems Products and Accessories booklet.
Note
Be sure the patient mode selected is appropriate for the cuff you are using. For instructions about changing the patient
mode, see page 22. Be aware that changing patient modes will cancel an NIBP reading in progress.
2.
Squeeze as much air from the cuff as you can before placing it on the patient.

This symbol indicates the NIBP
reading was taken in the
presence of high artifact while
monitoring ECG with Smartcuf
enabled. Artifact can affect
accuracy. To help reduce
artifact, see step 6 on page 39.
