NOTE
When measuring patients who are conscious, help the patient to relax. Measurement
may not be accurate if the patient’s arm is tense or if the patient talks.
The data for measurement on a leg tends to be higher than measurement on the arm.
When making diagnosis based on the NIBP values, measure NIBP on an upper arm.
Do not apply pressure to the cuff or air hose. NIBP may not be measured correctly
because of noise or NIBP measurement may stop due to the NIBP safety circuit.
When the transmitter is attached to the patient arm and the NIBP measurement
is performed when moving, tell the patient to relax and keep quiet. Otherwise,
measurement may be stopped or remeasurement is repeated due to body movement.
If there is an abnormal noise generated during measurement, stop using the transmitter
and contact your Nihon Kohden representative.
Do not measure NIBP of a patient on whom an IABP is being used. Measurement may
be incorrect due to the mixing of the patient’s own pulse and IABP pulse.
NIBP cannot be measured on a neonate using this transmitter.
