16 Monitoring Invasive Blood Pressure (IBP)
16.1 IBP Introduction
IBP monitoring is intended for adult, pediatric and neonatal patients. PAWP monitoring is only intended for adult
and pediatric patients.
You can monitor up to 4 (using the built-in IBP module and the external IBP module together) invasive blood
pressures.
The following picture shows the external IBP module.
16.2 IBP Safety Information
• Use only pressure transducers specified in this manual. Never reuse disposable pressure
transducers.
• Make sure that the applied parts never contact other conductive parts.
• To reduce the hazard of burns during high-frequency surgical procedure, ensure that the monitor’s
cables and transducers never come into contact with the high-frequency surgical units.
• When using accessories, their operating temperature should be taken into consideration. For more
information, see instructions for use of accessories.
• All invasive procedures involve risks to the patient. Use aseptic technique. Follow catheter
manufacturer's instructions.
• Mechanical shock to the invasive blood pressure transducer may cause severe shifts in zero balance
and calibration, and cause erroneous readings.
• Using IABP may cause IBP, including PR, measurements inaccurate or failed.
