Connecting the non-invasive blood pressure hose and cuff
The following diagram shows where the non-
invasive blood pressure hose connects to the non-
invasive blood pressure hose connector (A) on the
side of the M540.
A Non-invasive blood pressure connector on the
M540
B Non-invasive blood pressure hose
C Blood pressure cuff
To connect the hose and cuff
1 Select a blood pressure cuff size that is
appropriate for the patient.
2 Connect the blood pressure cuff (C) to the hose
(B).
3 Connect the non-invasive blood pressure hose
(B) to the non-invasive blood pressure
connector (A) of the M540.
NOTE
The accuracy of the oscillometric blood pressure
signal can decrease (up to loss of measurement)
under the following conditions:
– weak pulses
– irregular pulses
– patient movement artifacts
– tremor artifacts
– respiratory artifacts
– pulses generated from a ventricular assist
device
NOTE
A systolic blood pressure higher than the current
high inflation limit may trigger a message that the
non-invasive blood pressure inflation limit is low.
When this message appears, manually check the
blood pressure of the patient.
