2.3 Routine Operation
This section provides guidelines and step-by-step instructions for the vital sign measurements
that are routinely performed with the Duo.
2.3.1 NIBP Measurement
CAUTION: A patient's skin is sometimes fragile (i.e., on pediatric and
geriatric patients, or due to physiological conditions). In
these cases, a longer duration between NIBP measurements
should be considered to decrease the number of cuff
inflations over a period of time. In extreme cases, a thin
layer of soft roll or cotton padding may be applied to the
limb in order to cushion the skin when the cuff is inflated.
This may affect NIBP performance and should be used with
caution.
CAUTION: Please consult a physician for interpretation of blood
pressure measurements.
CAUTION: A blood pressure measurement can be affected by the
position of the patient, and his/her physiological condition
as well as other factors, such as patient movement.
CAUTION: Any condition that may affect the regularity and strength of
arterial pressures (such as patient movement, cardiac
arrhythmias, restriction of hose, etc.), will affect the
accuracy and ability to measure the NIBP.
The Duo utilizes the oscillometric method of measuring Non-Invasive Blood Pressure (NIBP).
The measurement includes systolic (Sys.), diastolic (Dia.) and mean arterial pressure (MAP).
There is no provision for interval measurement. Each measurement must be initiated by
pressing the NIBP Start/Stop key while the Duo is in normal monitoring mode.
The initial default cuff inflation pressure is dependent on the patient size setting as follows:
If the Duo is in normal monitoring mode, then the selected NIBP unit of measure LED will be
illuminated red, regardless of whether there is an NIBP value being displayed.
Upon power ON of the Duo, the NIBP unit of measure setting defaults to the most recent
setting made in the Unit of Measure mode.
During the inflation and bleed portions of the NIBP measurement, the current cuff pressure
displays in the MAP section of the NIBP parameter tile and updates approximately once
every second.
After the first successful measurement, the subsequent inflation pressure for the same patient
will be 50 ±10 mmHg above the previous systolic pressure measurement.
