Neonates 150 ± 5mmHg
Test Method
The steps outlined below are for manually performing an overpressure test. Some or all of
these steps may be incorporated into a service tool provided by the medical device
manufacturer.
1. Set the corresponding patient profile. See Chapter 5: Profiles on page 103.
2. Perform an NiBP measurement.
3. Connect a manometer, volume and hand bulb to Module using "T" adapters.
4. From the Main Screen, touch the Start NIBP measurement button.
5. Touch the "Test" button on the display.
6. Increase the pressure to approximately 250mmHg using the hand bulb.
7. VERY SLOWLY increase the pressure from 280 to the overpressure point. Once it is
reached, the valves will open and the pressure will rapidly reduce to 0mmHg.
8. If one of the overpressure values is not within the pass criteria above, return the
module for service to an authorized service center.
