THE WELCH ALLYN SPOT VITAL SIGNS IS NOT INTENDED FOR USE ON NEONATAL
PATIENTS.
To ensure pediatric blood pressure accuracy and safety, the Welch Allyn Child Print Cuff
(5200-03), the Welch Allyn Small Child Durable One-Piece Cuff (5082-203-3), and the
Welch Allyn Small Child Disposable One-Piece Cuff (5082-93-3) are the smallest cuffs
allowed for use with young children and infants. The circumference of the child's arm
must fit within the range markings on the blood pressure cuff.
To position the blood pressure cuff:
The preferred blood pressure measurement site for adults and children is the upper arm.
Keep the patient's arm relaxed and motion-free during measurement(s).
Note
Wrap the blood pressure cuff snugly with room between the blood pressure cuff and the
arm for no more than two fingers. Excessive tightness may cause venous congestion and
discoloration of the limb. Possible error may occur if the blood pressure cuff is wrapped
too loosely, preventing proper inflation.
Place the blood pressure cuff on a bare arm; clothing interferes with measurement
accuracy. Verify that the cuff artery marker is placed over the brachial artery. Ensure that
the hose is not twisted, kinked, or compressed, as this may cause measurement errors.

WARNING Do not place the blood pressure cuff on any extremity that is used
for intravenous infusions or any area where circulation is compromised.
WARNING Do not change the connector(s) on the blood pressure cuff tubing of
this device to luer type. Luer type connectors are commonly used in intravenous
infusion systems. Using the luer connectors on blood pressure cuff tubing
creates the risk that the blood pressure tubing could be mistakenly connected to
a patient's intravenous line, resulting in the introduction of air into the patient's
circulatory system.
