The method of IBP measurement is direct measuring the BP of artery or veins on the
pressure sensor mainly through liquid coupling so as to obtain the pressure curve of the
continuous BP.
The monitor can provide up to 2 channels of IBP measurement results.

Use only IBP transducers specified in this manual. Never reuse disposable
pressure transducers.
The operator should avoid contact with conductive parts of the accessories
