NIBP Monitoring

NIBP Measurement Modes

Blood pressure measurements can be made in three modes:
MANUAL mode One measurement of each systolic/diastolic/mean arterial pressure.
Automatic (AUTO) mode Measurements at preset intervals.
STAT mode As many measurements as possible within a 5-minute period.

Description of NIBP Operation

Setting Initial Inflation Pressure
With the monitor in the normal monitoring mode:
1. Press the Mode button twice until current NIBP target inflation is displayed.
2. Change NIBP target inflation to be desired, using the Up/Down (+/-) selection buttons.
3. Press any other button to return to normal operation. If there is no activity for 3 seconds,
the monitor will return to normal operation.
The numeric display in the lower right corner of the NIBP frame indicates the setting of the
initial inflation pressure. The initial inflation pressure can be set from 100 to 270 mmHg for
adult (80 to 170 mmHg for pediatric, 50 to 132 mmHg for neonatal), in intervals of 10, 12, 20
or 30mmHg. You may select an initial cuff inflation pressure. This is particularly important
with children, since an initial cuff inflation pressure of factory default, 160 mmHg for adult
(120 mmHg for pediatric, 90 mmHg for neonatal) may be uncomfortable, and is typically
higher than it needs to be.
