Using Apollo
Blood Pressure
Apollo supports non-invasive blood pressure measurements, and systolic and diastolic readings can
be obtained and manipulated through the software.
Systolic and Diastolic Blood Pressure
To manually adjust the systolic and/or diastolic blood pressure:
1. From the Cardiovascular panel, select the parameter of desired blood pressure.
2. Set the pressure by moving the blue slider left or right, or by typing in a
value.
3. Select Accept to exit and save the changes. The switch is now orange,
indicating a change has been made.
4. If using CAE Physiology (optional), return to the programmed physiologic
model by selecting the switch and turning the Override switch to
Modeled.
Non-Invasive Blood Pressure Measurement
Blood pressure can be taken manually on either arm. Non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP) monitoring
techniques can be used by attaching the standard cuff modified with a T-fitting and adapters.
For information on attaching the NIBP arm and modifying the blood pressure cuff, see the Setup
section in this user guide.
