and the previous (higher) pressure where no sound was heard. The interval of
uncertainty can be reduced by half by adding one half of the bleed step size
(4mmHg) to the manual systolic pressure.
• For diastole, record the cuff pressure at which the last Korotkoff sound was
heard. Actual diastolic pressure is somewhere between that pressure and the
next lower pressure. The interval of uncertainty can be reduced by half by
subtracting one half of the bleed step size (4mmHg) from the manual diastolic
pressure.
1.4.4 Patient Instructions
If the cuff becomes uncomfortable during a reading, make certain that the patient knows
how to terminate the readings by pressing the STOP key on the front of the monitor, and in
the event that discomfort persists they should fully remove the cuff and inform the doctor.
If the cuff slips out of place, make certain that the patient knows how to correctly
reposition the cuff for successful readings. If the cuff is not properly positioned, event
codes may appear on the monitor.
• The patient should make every effort to keep the monitor dry. However,
there is no hazard if the monitor does get wet. If this occurs, power the
monitor OFF and return it to Spacelabs Healthcare for service.
• The monitor should be kept within the pouch at all times.
1.5 Data Transfer and Reports
After monitoring is complete, connect the monitor to either a PC Direct or Base Station
interface to transmit patient data and generate blood pressure reports. Refer to the 90121
ABP Report Management System, the 92506 ABP Report Management System Client
Application, Cardionavigator CIMS User Manual or Sentinel CIMS User Manual, or the
90239 ABP Report Generator Operations Manuals for more details.
Note: Pulse rates obtained from the ABP monitor should be used only as an
indication for the heart rate.
1.6 Cleaning/Disinfecting
Visually inspect the monitor, air hose, and pressure cuff for dirt, debris, frayed or worn
areas, etc. prior to patient use.
