pressure measurement (NIBP)
NIBP measurement technology has been optimized for measuring
blood pressure with a normal sinus rhythm. Cardiac arrhythmias
can impair the ability of the non-invasive blood pressure
measurement module to record correct measured values.
Furthermore, arteriosclerosis, reduced circulation, diabetes, old
age, pregnancy, preeclampsia, kidney disease, trembling, shivers
and the use of a cardiac pacemaker can impair the ability of the
non-invasive blood pressure measurement module to record
correct measured values.
With an individual NIBP measurement, the device inflates the NIBP
cuff to the set pressure (initial NIBP cuff pressure). The user can
adapt the initial NIBP cuff pressure (Initial function button). To
determine the patient's systolic and diastolic blood pressure, the air
is slowly released from the NIBP cuff whilst measuring the pressure
of the pulse wave. The values for the diastolic and systolic blood
pressure are determined from this and shown in the display. At the
end of the NIBP measurement, the device releases the remaining
air from the NIBP cuff.
The NIBP measurement can be influenced by various factors:
