NIBP: Alarms
What to do When Taking NIBPs on Different Patients
To ensure the previous patient’s NIBP will not be used for adaptive target
inflation pressure when taking an NIBP on a new patient, you can 1.) clear the
history by holding the history key for more than 2 seconds, or 2.) if in manual
mode, wait for more than 2 minutes since the last determination was taken on
the previous patient.
In manual mode, the monitor will not use the displayed NIBP values for adaptive
target inflation pressure if it has been more than 2 minutes since the end of the
previous determination. In manual mode, the NIBP values are displayed for a
maximum of 30 minutes. In auto mode, the displayed NIBP values are used for
adaptive target inflation pressure independent of the length of time the values
are displayed.
Alarms
Upon completion of a determination that results in Systolic and Diastolic values,
these values are checked against the appropriate set of patient type limits
based upon the hose type detected. During Stat mode determinations, Systolic
and Diastolic values are not checked against their limits. When the limit alarms
are active, they can be silenced by pressing the Silence or Alarms button.
The Systolic window is used for NIBP status alarms. When active, the status
alarms, with the exception of E80 NIBP OVERPRESSURE, are acknowledged and
silenced when a new determination is attempted. All NIBP alarms can be
acknowledged and silenced by pressing the Silence button.
