When using reusable transducers, you must re-enter the calibration factor periodically,
as follows:
1. Open the setup menu of the IBP parameter you wish to monitor
(see pages 14-2 and 14-13).
2. Scroll to
3. Dial the calibration factor and click to confirm.
CAUTION: Always zero a reusable transducer before calibration. You must calibrate
the transducer within five minutes of a zero to obtain accurate measurements.
You or your hospital's technical personnel can obtain the calibration factor using one
of the following methods. Using either method, you must first zero the transducer.
Always record the new calibration factor so it is available to future users of the
transducer.
Calibration Using a Manometer or Simulator
To recalculate the calibration factor using a manometer or a pressure simulator:
1. Open the setup menu of the IBP parameter you wish to monitor
(see page 14-13).
2. Connect manometer or pressure simulator to the transducer.
3. Close transducer to the patient and open it to the manometer.
4. Use the manometer or simulator to create a pressure on the transducer within
the associated pressure range.
5. Click on
6. Use the rotary knob to highlight the reading on the manometer or simulator
and click. The monitor calculates the new factor and displays it as the
value.
