Note that:
• If you press the NIBP button while taking a STAT
measurement, the E Series unit terminates all
subsequent measurements.
• If you press the NIBP button while the E Series unit is
taking an automatic measurement, it aborts the
current measurement, deflates the cuff, and takes all
subsequent measurements at the set interval.
Printing Data
A strip recorder is provided with the E Series unit to
document events and data. See the “Recorder
Operation” section of the E Series Operator’s Guide for
instructions on how to record data. If you have already
taken NIBP measurements, press the RECORDER
button to print a stripchart that includes the following
values for the currently displayed measurement:
• Systolic blood pressure
• Diastolic blood pressure
• Mean blood pressure
• Pulse rate
• Time of measurement
Checkout Procedure
Perform the following checkout procedure daily to ensure
that the NIBP option is functioning properly. This daily
checkout procedure also ensures that medical personnel
maintain familiarity with the proper use of the NIBP
option.
For more specific instructions on how to accomplish
each step listed below, refer to the related section in this
manual.
Perform the daily checkout procedure as follows:
1. Select the proper size cuff, as described in “Selecting
the Proper Size Cuff” on page 7.
2. Connect the hose to the E Series unit and to the cuff,
as described in “Connecting the Hose” on page 7.
3. Apply the cuff to a human test subject, as described
in “Applying the Cuff to the Patient” on page 7.
4. Set the cuff inflation pressure (if current setting is not
appropriate), as described in “Setting Cuff Inflation
Pressure” on page 9.
5. Take a blood pressure measurement.
During cuff inflation, inspect cuff, hoses, and
connectors for air leakage. If a leak is present, correct,
replace, or service item.
6. Verify that the unit displays no error messages.
7. Verify that the displayed blood pressure values are
correct.
8. With alarms enabled, verify that the patient alarms
are functional by adjusting the high and low limits and
repeating the above blood pressure measurement.
Check that the unit:
• emits a continuous audio tone, and
• highlights the alarming parameter’s value and
flashes the alarm symbol on the display.
9. Visually inspect hose, hose connector, and cuffs for
signs of damage. If damaged, replace the damaged
item.
Cleaning the Hose and Reusable Cuffs
You can clean the hose and reusable cuffs by wiping the
surface with a damp cloth and disinfecting with a mild
disinfectant solution. Blow dry air through the hose
before use; likewise, ensure the reusable cuff is dry
before use.
