Selecting Adult or Neonatal Mode
In modules that offer both adult and neonatal modes, you can determine the
current mode by observing which key is highlighted or by reading the menu
prompt in the NIBP menu. The factory default setting is adult.
The following events occur with each change of mode:
• The monitor erases current NIBP readings from the display but retains them
in memory.
• Previous NIBP readings appear immediately if present in memory. If not,
readings appear as the measurements are taken.
• Alarm limits and state (ON/OFF) are automatically changed for the new mode
(adult or neonatal).
• Active NIBP alarms reset; alarms in violation terminate and suspended
alarms end.
Displaying Heart (Pulse) Rate Data
Non-invasive pressure measurements may be displayed with or without a pulse
rate. If you choose to display pulse rate, only five measurements may be
displayed in the NIBP table. Otherwise, ten measurements may be displayed as
shown in Figure 13-1: Bedside monitor display. Pulse rate is obtained from ECG,
arterial pressure (ART), SpO
2
, and NIBP (in that order), depending on the
availability of these parameters.
Initiating a Manual Measurement
You can start a measurement at any time by touching the STAT key.
If an initial measurement attempt is not successful, a single retry will be initiated
after a 5-second interval (short-term mode) or 30-second internal (long-term
mode).
WARNING:
• The mode (adult or neonatal) selected must correlate with
the hose connected to the module and the patient type.
!
• New measurements cannot be initiated if another measurement
is already in progress.
