Patient Preparation
Cuff selection and application are important. Inappropriate selection or
improper application of the cuff will result in erroneous measurements.
WARNINGS
The system is designed for use with dual-hose cuffs and tubing.
The use of single-hose cuffs with dual hose tubing can result in
unreliable and inaccurate NBP data.
Use care when placing cuff on extremity used to monitor other
patient parameters.
Do not place the cuff on a limb being used for A-V Fistulas,
intravenous infusion, or any area where circulation is
compromised or has the potential to be compromised.
Cuff selection:
1. Identify patient limb circumference.
2. Select appropriate cuff: limb circumference is identified on each cuff.
Cuff placement:
1. Place cuff snugly around extremity being used.
2. Marking on cuff should match artery location.
3. Cuff should be 2 to 5 cm (1 to 2 inches) above the elbow if using brachial
artery.
4. The air pad should be exactly over the brachial artery. Tubing is
immediately to the right or left of the brachial artery to prevent kinking
when elbow is bent.
For further information on cuffs, please contact your sales/service
representative.
