Chapter14 NIBP Monitoring
14.1 General Information
NIBP measurement can be performed in the oscillation method;
It can be used in big cuff and small cuff( decided to use based on the animal's limbs cuff type);
Measurement mode: manual, automatic and continuous measurement. Each mode can show NS,
NM and ND.
♦ “Manual” mode: measurement can only be done once.
♦ “Auto” mode: measurement can be repeated. The interval time can be set as
1/2/3/4/5/10/15/30/60/90/120/180/240/480 minutes.
♦ “Continuous” mode: measurement can continuously be done within 5 minutes.
Warning
Don’t apply NIBP measurement onto a patient with sickle cell disease or any skin
damage or expected to have skin damage.
For patients with serious DIC, users should decide whether to apply NIBP measurement
based on clinical assessment, as there may have blood tumor at the touching area
between body and cuff.
In case of measurement on infants and newborns, users must ensure to select the correct
mode setting (refers to Patient Information Menu setting). A wrong mode may threaten
patient safety, as adult blood pressure levels are too high to be applied on infants and
newborns.
