22. Suntech NIBP Monitoring (Option)
Description of warning and caution
WARNING: This device should not be used when oscillometric pulses may be altered by
other devices or techniques such as External Counterpulsation (ECP) or Intra Aortic
Balloon Pump Counterpulsation.
WARNING: DO NOT use the OEM NIBP module for any purpose other than specified in
this manual without written consent and approval from SunTech Medical.
WARNING: DO NOT use in the presence of flammable gaseous anesthesia agents
because of flame hazard.
WARNING: DO NOT immerse the monitor in any fluid, place fluids on top, or attempt to
clean the unit with any liquid detergents or cleaning agents. This may cause an electrical
hazard. If accidental wetting occurs, please
WARNING: DO NOT attach the cuff to a limb being used for IV infusions as the cuff
inflation can block the infusion, potentially causing harm to the patient.
CAUTION: Substitution of a component different from that supplied may result in
measurement error.
CAUTION: Repairs should be undertaken only by personnel trained or authorized by
SunTech Medical.
CAUTION: Accuracy of any blood pressure measurement may be affected by the position
of the subject, his or her physical condition and use outside of the operating instructions
detailed in this manual. Interpretation of blood pressure measurements should be made
only by a physician or trained medical staff.
CAUTION: All air hoses and cuffs used to connect the patient to the module must be
approved by SunTech Medical.
CAUTION: Hoses of a certain material and/or durometer may cause the module to perform
in an improper fashion.
Also, cuffs that are extremely small or large in volume may cause errors to occur
depending on the BP mode selection.
CAUTION: If the blood pressure cuff is on the same limb as a pulse oximeter probe, the
oxygen saturation results will be altered when the cuff occludes the brachial artery.
