WARNINGS
• Use clinical judgment to decide whether to perform a repeated series of NIBP
measurements because of the risk of purpura, ischemia and neuropathy in the limb
with the NIBP cuff.
• Arrhythmias, erratic heartbeats and patient motion can result in inaccurate readings
and/or prolonged measurements. If questionable readings are obtained, check the
patient’s vital signs by alternate means before administering medication.
• The performance of the automated sphygmomanometer can be affected by extremes of
temperature, humidity and altitude.
