25.5 NIBP Tests
25.5.1 NIBP Leakage Test
The NIBP leakage test checks the integrity of the system and of the valve. It is required at
least once a year or when you doubt the measured NIBP. If the test failed, corresponding
prompt messages will be given. If no message is displayed, it means no leakage is detected.
Tools required:
 An adult cuff
 An air tubing
 A correct sized cylinder
Follow this procedure to perform the leakage test:
1. Set the patient category to [Adu].
2. Connect the cuff to the NIBP connector on the monitor.
3. Wrap the cuff around the cylinder as shown below.
4. Select [Main Menu][Maintenance >>]ė[User Maintenance >>]. Enter the required
password and then select [OK].
5. Select [Module Maintenance >>]Ä—[NIBP Leakage Test]. The NIBP display shows
[Leakage Testing…].
After about 20 seconds, the monitor will automatically deflate. This means the test is
completed. If the message [NIBP Pneumatic Leak] is displayed, it indicates that the NIBP
airway may have leakages. Check the tubing and connections for leakages. If you ensure that
the tubing and connections are all correct, perform a leakage test again.
If the problem persists, contact your service personnel.
