Stat intervals
You can configure the monitor to take NIBP measurements continuously.
When you select Stat on the Intervals tab in Settings, the monitor takes repeated NIBP
measurements for 5 minutes, starting a new cycle each time the cuff deflates below
safe venous return pressure (SVRP) for 2 seconds.
Current cuff pressures are not dynamically displayed during a Stat reading. The Home
tab displays the NIBP reading from the previous cycle until the current cycle finishes.
