NBP Measurements
Single Measurements
The monitor gives you two options for taking NBP measure-
ments:
! Taking single NBP measurements.
! Selecting the Interval Mode to take NBP measurements auto-
matically at specific time intervals.
NOTE: After an NBP measurement, the valves are opened to
ensure that all residual pressure is released from the cuff. During
this process, it is normal for the NBP valves to “chatter” for a few
moments following the NBP measurement.
STEPS: Taking a Single NBP Measurement
1. Press the fixed key NBP Start/Stop. The cuff inflates.
2. Wait until the cuff deflates.
At the end of the measurement, the monitor emits an end-of-mea-
surement tone (2 beeps), if the measurement tone is enabled in
the NBP menu (see below). To cancel an NBP measurement in
progress, press
NBP Start/Stop again.
Interval Mode
The interval mode lets you program the monitor to initiate NBP
measurements automatically at specific intervals. The following
time intervals are available:
! 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 30, 45, 60, 120,
180, 240 minutes (or OFF).
NOTE: The minimum time between the end of an automatic inter-
val measurement and the next automatic measurement is 30 sec-
onds.
