Figure 74. NIBP: reading in progress
When the cycle completes, control returns to the previous direct-access display. To
view the final NIBP readings on the manometer scale, select Manometer from the
Setup NIBP menu.

• If you need to stop the reading and vent the cuff at any time during the
measurement, press
.
• If the monitor cannot get a valid NIBP reading, it displays the message
‘NIBP retry in progress’ in the upper left corner of the screen. Then, depending on
settings and patient mode, the monitor attempts one or two more
measurements. If the retries fail to produce a valid reading, the monitor displays
an NIBP error message.
8. If motion artifact such as shivering or coughing interferes with NIBP readings, do the
following:
• Position the patient’s limb away from the body so that the applied cuff is not in
contact with the patient’s body or any other object (such as a bed rail). Keep the
cuff as close to heart level as possible.
• Verify that the Smartcuf filter is ON. (See “Improving NIBP accuracy with
Smartcuf” on page 68.)
• Verify that the ECG leads are properly connected to the patient, and monitor ECG
during NIBP. (ECG monitoring is required for Smartcuf.)
Note For every inch the cuff is placed above the heart, add 1.9 mmHg (0.253 kPa) to the
displayed NIBP reading. For every inch below the heart, subtract 1.9 mmHg
(0.253 kPa).
