Monitoring Invasive Pressures (IBP)

The X Series IBP inputs are Type CF defibrillator proof.

This chapter describes how to use the X Series unit to monitor invasive pressures (IBP).

The X Series 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 X Series 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.
