When the level reaches 10%, the BP simulation mode will be disabled; however, the Manometer and ECG (optional) will continue to function. Once the battery level reaches 0%, the unit will automatically turn itself off to avoid damaging the batteries.
SETUP The Setup Mode allows the user to adjust the configuration of the simulator. The Setup screen can be entered using the key. The parameters can be changed by using key to highlight the line and to toggle the available options. The Setup screen can be exited using the key.
The following is a breakdown of the parameters available in the configuration of the unit and their available options: System Setup Configuration Parameter Description Range Systolic Shift Adjusts the Systolic Output of the NIBP Simulation. This is not a direct mmHg adjustment. Adjusts the Diastolic Output of the NIBP Simulation. This is not a direct mmHg adjustment. ±50.0 Diastolic Shift ±50.0 Static BP (NIBP-1030 Only) Adjusts the Static Blood Pressure Output.
SYSTOLIC AND DIASTOLIC SHIFT – The NIBP-1000 Series is equipped with the option to shift test results to compensate for different methods of measuring Oscillometric NIBP by various manufacturers and models of devices under test. CAUTION These adjustments must be used with caution as they will allow the user to adjust the output results to invalid values. These adjustments should only be used to aid in the simplification of testing and with documented controls.
CONNECTIONS Connecting Pressure Cuffs The NIBP-1010, NIBP-1020 and NIBP-1030 Blood Pressure Simulators are connected between the blood pressure cuff and the DUT (Patient Monitor). The blood pressure cuff should be disconnected from the DUT and a ‘T’ adapter inserted between the cuff and the DUT. The NIBP simulator is then connected to the open side of the ‘T’ adapter as pictured below: Blood Pressure Cuff DUT NIBP10xx NOTE: Roll the cuff tightly on itself or around a mandrel.
Connecting IBP Cables (NIBP-1030 ONLY) For models with IBP output, connect the DUT-appropriate IBP test cable between the NIBP-1030 IBP Connector (6-pin Mini-DIN as pictured below) and the DUT. The pin-out shown below for the Mini-DIN connector is the industry standard configuration used on most modern patient simulators. As such, there are many existing cables that may be used or you may obtain the proper cable from BC Group.
Auxiliary Connector The Auxiliary connector can be used for either standard RS-232 Serial communications using an optional accessory cable or for SpO2 simulation using the optional accessory MSP-2100 SpO2 module available from BC Biomedical.
THEORY OF OPERATIONS NIBP (Non-Invasive Blood Pressure) Function A stepping motor and piston pressure engine is used to generate the output waveforms. A precision pressure sensor is used to measure the pressure of the cuff. The pressure sensor is read by a 16-bit differential Analog to Digital converter. The cuff pressure is monitored and the motor/piston assembly reacts to provide the correct response based on the selected mode.
ECG Function A Digital to Analog converter is used to generate the ECG outputs based on stored waveform data for standard ECG and Arrhythmias. Respiration Function A Digital to Analog converter is used to generate the respiration waveform. The respiration output is present on the LA ECG lead only. Refer to Monitor manual to determine which lead the Monitor uses for respiration. It may be necessary to reverse the LA and LL leads for respiration to be detected.
RUNNING A TEST Depending on the model, there are up to 9 Basic Test Modes and 3 Sub-Test Modes. This section will walk through each of the tests and their basic operation. The Main Tests are accessible with a single key. The key will scroll through the following tests in a continuous loop: Adult 120/80 Adult 120/80 w/Pace Adult High 190/120 Adult Low 80/40 Neonatal 70/40 Alarm Test Arrhythmia Seq Leak Test Manometer BASIC TEST MODES NIBP: The first 5 test modes deal with various NIBP setups.
There are 5 selectable NIBP Basic Test Modes; Adult, Adult w/pace, Adult High, Adult Low and Neonatal. The displays will resemble the following examples: NOTE: The screens for the first test will have the individual components labeled. The component labels for subsequent tests are the same.
Adult 120/80 with Pace (Typical Screens) Adult High 120/80 (Typical Screens) 23
Adult Low 80/40 (Typical Screens) Neonatal 70/40 (Typical Screens) 24
ALARM TEST: Use the key to cycle through the Test Modes until Alarm Test appears. The purpose of this function is to help test the alarms of the monitor under test. The ECG output will alternate from a 47 BPM NSR with apnea respiration (0 brpm) to 160 BPM NSR with 80 brpm respiration. The time interval between alternations is 30 seconds. A count down timer is displayed to indicate the time still remaining for the current output. NOTE: While in this mode, the NIBP simulation output is disabled.
ARRHYTHMIA SEQUENCE: (NIBP-1030 Only) Use the key to cycle through the Test Modes until Arrhythmia Sequence appears. The purpose of this function is to provide a timed sequence of some of the more common Arrhythmias. The test will continually cycle through the 6 arrhythmias in the sequence listed below. A count down timer is displayed to indicate the time still remaining in each step. NOTE: While in this mode, the NIBP simulation output is disabled.
LEAK TEST: (NIBP-1030 Only) Use the key to cycle through the Test Modes until Leak Test appears. The purpose of this function is to provide a standard pressure leak test. The pressure input is connected to the system that is to be monitored. Pressure is then applied to the system. The Leak Test is initiated by pressing the key. The unit traces and displays the pressure drop and the time since the test was initiated. The unit also calculates and displays the leak rate in mmHg per minute.
MANOMETER: Use the key to cycle through the Test Modes until Manometer appears. The purpose of this function is to allow the unit to be used strictly as a Manometer with a full scale range of ± 500 mmHg.
SUB TEST MODES PEAK: (Optional) The optional Peak test feature is available whenever the display is in a pressure mode. It will continuously monitor the pressure input and display and hold the maximum value. This value may be reset at any time by pressing the key.
ECG PERFORMANCE TEST: (NIBP-1020 & NIBP-1030) The ECG output is selected by pressing displayed. The until the ECG Waveforms menu is key is used to choose the desired ECG output. There are 16 fixed waveforms available. NOTE: While in this mode the NIBP simulation is disabled, but the IBP simulation is active (NIBP-1030 only).
DYNAMIC IBP: (NIBP-1030 Only) The IBP output matches the NIBP setting in the NIBP mode or the ECG setting in the ECG Waveform mode. NOTE: The IBP sensitivity (5 µV/V/mmHg or 40 µV/V/mmHg) must be correctly selected in the SETUP Mode before using IBP. (See Setup section for more information.) STATIC IBP: (NIBP-1030 Only) A static Blood Pressure output may be selected in the SETUP mode. This fixed value will remain on the IBP output until changed.
TEMPERATURE SIMULATION: (NIBP-1030 Only) The temperature setting can be selected in the SETUP mode. This fixed value will remain on the Temperature output until changed. The output will simulate both YSI 400 and YSI 700 Temperature probes. NOTE: Both outputs are available at the output connector simultaneously. NOTE: On some Patient Monitors, if ECG simulation is active on the NIBP-1030 and you enable Temperature Simulation, the ECG trace may disappear from the Patient Monitor screen.
