vPad-A1 OPERATORS MANUAL
4.5 Invasive Blood Pressure
4.5.1 General
The
Invasive Blood Pressure (IBP) simulation provides static pressure settings or dynamic output
waveforms suitable for testing up to two invasive blood pressure channels of a multi-parameter monitor.
To access the IBP simulation, touch the IBP tab on the left side of the vPad-A1 Main screen (
Figure 17
).
On selection, the simulation setup menu will be displayed, activating the individual parameter values shown
on the screen.
4.5.2 Parameters
Parameters related to IBP can be selected from the dropdown lists at the top of the
screen. There are three modes of operation: Static Blood Pressure, Dynamic Blood
Pressure
, and Intra-Uterine Pressure. Touching the top-most menu box will
present a list of the options available, as shown in
Figure 55
.
Selecting any of these options will then display a list of relevant parameters for the
second list. Users may set parameters as described in section 4.1.3 -
Parameter
Values and Options
.
Note
: Since it is not possible to display a selector or button for every simulation
parameter at the same time, the IBP menu displays, in yellow, a summary list
of all the parameter settings which are currently in use. See
Figure 56
for an
example of a parameters summary.
