Non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP)
You can still take single measurements during an
interval cycle.
Interval measurements are not possible during:
– Venous-stasis mode – the measurements
resume immediately after the cuff deflates.
– Cardiac bypass mode – select the NIBP
start/stop button to resume interval
measurement after exiting cardiac bypass
mode.
– Standby mode – select the NIBP start/stop
button to resume interval measurement after
exiting standby mode.
– Activated Continuous mode.
Aligning interval mode settings between
Cockpit and M540
If interval mode is deactivated on the Cockpit and
an M540 is docked with interval mode activated
and a measurement is in progress, the non-
invasive blood pressure measurement is canceled
automatically. In addition, interval mode is
deactivated on the M540.
If interval mode is activated on both devices but you
dock an M540 with a different interval time, the non-
invasive blood pressure measurement continues.
However, the M540 interval time is adjusted to the
Cockpit setting at the end of the measurement.
If you turn the M540 off and on again, and interval
mode is activated on both the Cockpit and the
M540, select NIBP start/stop button to resume
interval mode.
To start/stop interval mode
1 Select the non-invasive blood pressure
parameter field to select the NIBP page directly,
or
Select Sensor parameters... from the main
menu bar.
2 Select the NIBP tab to access the NIBP page.
3 Select Interval time [min] and make your
selection. The available settings are: Off
(default), 1, 2, 2.5, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 45, 60,
120, 240 min.
For any interval setting of 5 minutes and up, the
following time alignment occurs. After the first
measurement is completed, all subsequent
measurements align with the next natural time
boundary that corresponds to the selected
interval. For example, if a 5-minute interval is
selected at 10:03, the next interval starts at
10:05, 10:10 and so on. If a 10-minute interval
is selected at 10:07, the next interval starts at
10:10, 10:20, and so forth.
4 Press NIBP start/stop button on the main
menu bar if you change the mode setting from
Off to another setting (otherwise, interval
measurements will not start).
To stop interval measurements
Press the NIBP start/stop button on the main
menu bar of the Cockpit.
or
Press the start/stop key on the front of the
M540.
NOTE
A safety timer ensures that a cuff remains deflated
for at least 30 seconds before the end of a
measurement and the beginning of a new one.
This precaution avoids prolonged impeded blood
flow which could be harmful. The safety timer
overrides any interval setting and is of particular
importance in the 1 and 2-minute intervals.
NOTE
Pressing the NIBP start/stop button longer than
two seconds suspends interval mode and sets the
Interval time [min] to Off.
If the M540 is power cycled while in interval mode,
you must press the NIBP start/stop button to
resume interval measurements.
