vPad-A1 OPERATORS MANUAL
4.7.2.1 Heart Rate
The
Heart Rate
parameter sets the frequency of pulses during an
NIBP Simulation
. It can be set
from 20 to 240 beats per minute (BPM), in increments of 1 BPM.
4.7.2.2 Pulse Volume
Pulse Volume
refers to the parameter that sets the overall size of the simulated pulses. A simulation
with “High”
Pulse Volume
provides the most reliable readings from the monitor's perspective, since
large oscillometric signals are easier to detect. “Medium” and “Low” Pulse Volume can be used to
test the monitor's ability to handle less strong or generally weak pulse signals from the blood
pressure cuff.
4.7.2.3 Mode
The simulation
Mode
should be selected to suit the
NIBP
monitor type.
Available options are “Adult” and “Neonatal”. For a device intended for
monitoring both adults and neonates, the
Mode
setting should match the
currently selected options on the monitor, along with a cuff of appropriate
size.
4.7.2.4 Device
The
Device
dropdown menu contains a list of
NIBP
monitor makes and
models. Users must select an appropriate target device to ensure that the
calibrated
Envelopes
to be used for
NIBP Simulation
are suitable for the
monitor's specific oscillometric blood pressure measurement algorithms.
Note
: To add a new
Device
not found amongst existing options, refer to
section 4.8.2.4 -
Calibration: NIBP Envelopes
.
4.7.2.5 Simulation Envelope Selection
The A1 Patient Simulator generates
NIBP Simulations
that target a specific
set of
SYS
-
DIA
-
MAP
readings. Users can select the targeted readings from
the
Simulation
dropdown menu. The
Simulation
options available will
depend on both the
Device
and the current
Mode
setting (see
Figure 78
and
Figure 79Figure 79
). Once a target is chosen, the module will load the
calibration data from an Envelope file that was customized for the active
Device
.
