Note: This section is provided as a reference and intended for authorized service personnel only.
Pass Criteria
International standards for automated NIBP devices require that the pressure must not exceed 300mmHg on adults and pediatric patients and 150mmHg on neonatal patients
with a tolerance of 10% for 15 seconds or greater than 10% for 3 seconds. The overpressure pass criteria for the Advantage module are:
Adults, Pediatrics 300 ±10mmHg
Neonates 150 ±5mmHg
Equipment
• Calibrated Manometer*
• Pneumatic "T" Adapters
• 500mL bottle or regular-sized cuff wrapped around solid object
• Hand Bulb
• Connection Tubing
*Verify the manometer has been calibrated within the last 12 months. Calibration accuracy shall be within ±0.02% to ±0.25% FS (Full Scale) and a measurement uncertainty
of ±1 LSD (Least Significant Digit).
Test Method for Adults and Pediatrics
1. Connect the manometer (A), 500mL bottle (B) or cuff wrapped around solid object (C), and hand bulb (D) to the NIBP module (E) using "T" adapters and
connection tubing.
