Calibrating Reusable Transducers
You must calibrate reusable invasive blood pressure transducers with the mercury
manometer within five minutes after zeroing. Note: This procedure is for reusable
transducers only.
STEPS: Calibrating the IBP Transducer
1. Zero the pressure transducer via the IBP setup menu.
2. Click on the IBP1 parameter box.
3. Click on
Mano. Cal.
4. Connect the pressure transducer to the mercury manometer.
5. Pump the manometer to a value recommended by your hospital protocol.
6. Dial in the calibration value to match the mean pressure value and click the
knob.
7. If you are monitoring two invasive blood pressures, repeat these steps for the
second pressure parameter.
NOTE: If invasive blood pressure alarms are on, the message IBP static appears.
