Chapter 11
Monitoring Invasive Pressures (IBP)
The Propaq MD IBP inputs are Type CF defibrillator proof.
This chapter describes how to use the Propaq MD unit to monitor invasive pressures (IBP).
The Propaq MD unit has three invasive pressure channels: P1, P2, and P3. You can use these
channels to measure arterial, venous, or intracranial pressures using invasive transducers with
5uV/V/mmHg sensitivity. Each channel requires its own connector, cabling, and pressure
transducer.
Invasive Pressure Transducers
The Propaq MD unit is compatible with many types of invasive pressure transducers, including
non disposable, disposable dome, and fully disposable transducers. See Appendix B,
Accessories, for a list of compatible transducers. Do not use light-sensitive disposable
transducers.
Use the invasive pressure transducers according to your organization’s established clinical
protocol and follow the manufacturer’s recommendations. Always refer the manufacturer’s
Directions for Use before using a transducer.
