LIFEPAK 15 Monitor/Defibrillator Operating Instructions

Monitoring Invasive Pressure
Intended Use
The LIFEPAK 15 invasive pressure (IP) monitor is intended for measuring arterial, venous,
intracranial, and other physiological pressures using an invasive catheter system with a
compatible transducer.
The IP monitor is a tool to be used in addition to patient assessment. Care should be taken to
assess the patient at all times; do not rely solely on the IP monitor.
Indications
Invasive pressure monitoring is indicated for use in patients who require continuous
monitoring of physiological pressures in order to rapidly assess changes in the patient’s
condition or response to therapy. It may also be used to aid in medical diagnosis.
Contraindications
None known.
IP Monitoring Warnings
Possible Inaccurate Pressure Readings, Air
Embolism, Blood Loss, or Loss of Sterility
Before use, carefully read these operating instructions,
and the transducer and infusion set instructions for use
and precautionary information.
Inaccurate Pressure Readings
Pressure readings should correlate with the patient’s
clinical presentation. If readings do not correlate, verify
that the zeroing stopcock is positioned at the patient’s
zero reference, rezero the transducer, and/or check the
transducer with a known or calibrated pressure.
Manually check cuff blood pressure.
Inaccurate Pressure Readings
Changing the patient’s position changes the zero
reference level. Relevel the transducer’s zeroing
stopcock any time the patient’s position is changed.
