4 Monitoring NBP
44
2
Select Setup Sequence to open the Setup Sequence menu.
Up to four measurement phases can be setup which will run consecutively. For each phase you can
set the number of measurements and the interval between them. If you want to run less than four
phases in a sequence, you can set the number of measurements for one or more phases to Off.
3 Select each phase in turn (A, B, C and D) and select the number of measurements and the time
interval between the measurements.
4 To have measurements continue after the sequence, set the number of measurements for your last
phase to
Cont and this phase will run indefinitely.
CAUTION
Be aware that, if none of the phases are set to Cont, NBP monitoring will end after the last
measurement of the last phase.
When the NBP measurement mode is set to Sequence, the repetition time for Auto mode cannot be
changed.
Understanding the NBP Numerics and Symbols
Note: The Alarms Off symbols indicate that no physiological alarms are available from the Cableless
Measurement Devices when not assigned to a host.
Measurement modes with a series of measurements can be indicated with two different symbols:
An S in front of the symbol indicates
Sequence mode and an A, B, C or D indicates which phase of
the sequence is currently running.
During Measurements
The cuff pressure is displayed instead of the timestamp.
1 Systolic/Diastolic pressure
2 Mean pressure
3 Pulse rate
4 Pulse rate indicator
5 Measurement mode (see below)
6 Alarms Off symbol for Pulse
7 Timestamp
8 Alarms Off symbol for NBP
indicates that a series is running and
shows the relative time to the next
measurement.
indicates that auto or sequence mode is
selected but the measurement series has
not yet started.
