12.5 Setting Up the NIBP Measurement
12.5.1 Preparing the Patient
In normal use, perform NIBP measurement on a patient who is in the following position:

Comfortably seated

Legs uncrossed

Feet flat on the floor

Back and arm supported

Middle of the cuff at the level of the right atrium of the heart
NOTE

It is recommended that the patient relaxes as much as possible before performing measurement and that
the patient does not talk during NIBP measurement.

It is recommended that 5 min should elapse before the first reading is taken.

The operator should not touch the cuff or tubing during NIBP measurement.
12.5.2 Preparing to Measure NIBP
1. Power on the monitor.
2. Verify that the patient category is correct. Change it if necessary. If not, select [ Main Menu ]
→
[ Patient Setup>> ]
→
[ Patient Demographics ]
→
[ Patient Cat. ], and set the patient category to [ Adu ], [ Ped ] or [ Neo ].
3. Plug the air tubing into the NIBP connector on the monitor.
4. Select a correct sized cuff by referring to the limb circumference marked on the cuff. The width of the cuff should
be 40% (50% for neonates) of the limb circumference, or 2/3 of the upper arm’s length. The inflatable part of the
cuff should be long enough to encircle at least 50% to 80% of the limb.
5. Apply the cuff to an upper arm or thigh of the patient and make sure the Φ marking on the cuff matches the artery
location. Do not wrap the cuff too tightly around the limb. It may cause discoloration, and ischemia of the
extremities. Make sure that the cuff edge falls within the marked range. If it does not, use a cuff that fits better.
6. Connect the cuff to the air tubing and make sure that the air tubing is not compressed or twisted. Air must pass
unrestricted through the tubing.
NOTE

The use of the equipment is restricted to one patient at a time.

For known hypertensive patients, you need to set initial cuff pressure to a higher value to reduce the
measurement time.
