4.7.2.6 Running NIBP Simulations
When NIBP Simulation setup is complete, the button prepares the
simulator hardware for an impending test. Blood pressure cuff inflation and
deflation are entirely driven by the device under test, as is the case during a
normal diagnostic NIBP measurement. The module will begin monitoring
cuff pressure and display a Result screen as shown in
Figure 80
.
The Result screen displays a summary of the active Simulation parameters along
with fields for entering observed readings. For details on how to enter data for
Test Records, see section 5.1.2 -
Test Results
. The interface also instructs users
to initiate an NIBP measurement on the patient monitor.
Pressing the button will show a graphical representation of system pressure
during the course of a single NIBP measurement. The graph is a pop-up that
overlays the bottom section of the Result screen until it is dismissed.
The button clears the graph.
Pressure from that time forward continues
to be displayed.
The button hides the graph.
Pressure is updated in the background.
If the initial
DUT measurement is unsatisfactory, users may elect to make multiple NIBP
measurements. The unit is ready to generate multiple Simulations until user assigns a /
or presses .
Note
: It is recommended that users exit the NIBP Simulation Result screen when finished to
conserve battery power.
