uring equipment is not available, the metrological control can be carried out by Ambu. In this case the Cuff
Pressure Gauge has to be sent to Ambu.
If there is an indication that the Cuff Pressure Gauge cannot keep the accuracy of measurement within the
24 months, or the metrological characteristics of the Cuff Pressure Gauge have been affected, a metrologi-
cal control has to be carried out immediately. This has to be carried out only by a person who meets the
requirements for metrological controls. The results of the control, as well as the measured values and
measurement procedures has to be documented.
After successful control, the Cuff Pressure Gauge has to be marked with a sign which indicates (clearly
and traceable) the year of the next inspection and the person who carried out the metrological control.
In order to check the values, the Luer nozzle of the Cuff Pressure Gauge has to be connected to a calibrated
pressure gauge (measurement inaccuracy max. ±0.6 cmH

O). Afterwards inflate via the inflation bulb to
30, 60 and 90 cmH

O and record the values. The values must be within the indicated tolerance. If this is
not the case, the device must be returned to Ambu for repair. If the values are within the tolerance, the
device can still be used.
