12.4 Setting Up the NIBP Measurement
12.4.1 Preparing to Measure NIBP
1. Power on the monitor.
2. Verify that the patient category is correct. Change it if necessary.
3. Plug the air tubing into the NIBP connector.
4. Select a correct sized cuff and then apply it as follows:
‹
Determine the patient’s limb circumference.
‹
Select an appropriate 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.
‹ Apply the cuff to an upper arm or leg 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 larger or smaller
cuff that will fit better.
5. Connect the cuff to the air tubing and make sure that the bladder inside the cover is not
folded and twisted.
NOTE
z
The use of the equipment is restricted to one patient at a time.
12.4.2 Starting and Stopping Measurements
You can start and stop measurements by using the hardkey on the monitor’s front.
12.4.3 Correcting the Measurement if Limb is not at Heart
Level
The cuff should be applied to a limb at the same level as the patient’s heart. If the limb is not
at the heart level, to the displayed value:
„
Add 0.75 mmHg (0.10 kPa) for each centimeter higher, or
„ Deduct 0.75 mmHg (0.10 kPa) for each centimeter lower.
