Function
Select the type of NBP cuff used on the patient (ADULT,
PEDIATRIC or NEONATAL).
WARNING
—The correct cuff size must be selected to obtain reliable
NBP data and to prevent overpressure in neonatal or
pediatric use.
NOTE
You must select CLEAR NBP READINGS after
changing this setting for the target pressure to take
affect.
Remove all values from the NBP parameter window, remove
NBP messages from the display and remove all NBP
information from the VITAL SIGNS history.
CAUTION
—Changes made to these control settings are persistent.
They are recalled when a patient is discharged from the
monitor.
NOTE
Only available in software version 6 or later.
Create a custom series of automatic NBP measurements,
including the time interval between measurements and the
number of measurements to perform. For more information,
refer to Setup Custom Automatic NBP Measurements on
page 10-9.
Select the target inflation pressure for the first NBP
measurement. The choices vary by cuff size.
NOTE
You must select CLEAR NBP READINGS after
changing this setting for the target pressure to take
affect.
NOTE
SuperSTAT NBP briefly over-inflates beyond the initial
inflation pressure and then steps down to the correct
pressure. To benefit patient comfort, lower the default
initial inflation pressure.
NOTE
Only available in software version 6 or later.
Turn the feature on or off to display pulse rate values in the
parameter window when the display setting is INDV 3 WFS.
