ADC e-sphyg 2 User Manual page 14

Apply the cuff to patient's arm.
Choose the right size of cuff for
your patient. NOTE: Only these 3 cuffs
may be used in auto mode.
The lower edge of the cuff should be about 1" (2 to 3 cm)
above the inner elbow and BLADDER TUBE should be over the
inner part of the arm, positioning the ARTERY MARK of the
cuff over the brachial artery.
Press the surface of the cuff to make sure that the hook and
loop adhesive fastens securely.
The cuff should be wrapped loosely enough so that two fingers can be placed between
the cuff and patient's arm. If the cuff is wrapped tighter or looser than this,
inaccurate blood pressure readings may result.
If your patient is wearing a shirt that might restrict circulation in his/her upper arm or
he/she rolls his/her sleeve up over the upper arm, the blood flow will be restricted,
preventing accurate measurement.
Press START/STOP button.
The cuff is inflated automatically after zero settings.
Pressurization stops when pressure reaches the preset pressure value and
pressure starts to descend.
Heart mark flashes in the segment LCD synchronizing detected pulse.
Deflation rate is displayed at the lower right corner of the segment LCD.
Press START/STOP button whenever the measurement
should be interrupted.
The device will stop during any course of measurement
procedure and rapidly exhaust air from the cuff.
Air is rapidly exhausted from the cuff as
measurement completes.
Blood pressure and pulse rate are displayed.
