Take a manual NIBP measurement
WARNING Patient injury risk. Never install Luer Lock connectors on Welch Allyn
blood pressure cuff tubing. Using these connectors on blood pressure cuff tubing
creates the risk of mistakenly connecting this tubing to a patient's intravenous line
and introducing air into the patient's circulatory system.
Caution Inaccurate measurement risk. Any external compression of the blood
pressure hose or cuff may cause system errors or inaccurate measurements.
1. Properly size the blood pressure cuff and position it around the patient’s bare upper arm.
2. Touch Start to take a measurement.
Interval NIBP measurement
The monitor can take NIBP measurements automatically based on intervals you choose.
The Intervals tab provides all interval features.
From this tab, you can do the following:
• Configure intervals
• Turn off intervals
• Configure the monitor to print automatic measurements as they are completed
When the measurement is complete, the NIBP frame displays the measurement until the next
measurement is complete.
Note During intervals, each automatic and manual save of patient measurements clears
all measurements from Manual parameters frame.
The button changes to a timer ( ), which counts down to the next automatic
measurement.
Automatic measurements continue until you turn off intervals.
WARNING Patient harm risk. Do not use intervals on neonates out of earshot.
Verify that audio can be heard from where you intend to be.
Automatic print on interval
The printer can be set to automatically print patient data at each interval.
1. Touch the Settings tab.
