NOTE: Invasive pressure monitoring is an optional feature that your
institution may not have purchased.
For acquisition of invasive blood pressure, a pressure transducer (see
enclosed publication "Accessories – Dash 2000/3000") is connected to the BP
connector on the monitor. In conformity to common practice, connection of the
extracorporeal pressure transducer to the patient is accomplished by tubes
with stopcocks located near the transducer dome.
This chapter gives guidelines for preparation, adjusting setup, and specialized
features for invasive pressure monitoring. Detailed operating procedures are
given for the CVP pressure site. Other pressure sites have menu items just
like those in the CVP Menu so you can apply the same principles when
monitoring those sites.
There is one blood pressure connector (labeled BP) on the right side of the
monitor as shown in the illustration below.

NOTE: The signal input is a high-insulation port, it is defibrillator-proof

The insulated input ensures patient safety and protects the device during
defibrillation and electrosurgery.
