Verification of Accutorr Plus Pneumatic Performance using an NIBP
Simulator (11d)
Select Room Number 11 and Bed Letter d, and press the NIBP START key to activate the
test.
For these tests, program the NIBP simulator to perform the desired test. Instead of
pumping up the cuff, this test uses the NIBP simulator to verify the Accutorr Plus pressure
reading for the NIBP Leak Test, Over Pressure test, and the Main Pressure Transducer
Verification Test. The Accutorr displays the pressure in the MAP display. Pressing the
DEFLATE key at any time during the test causes the NIBP module to open all valves,
clear the MAP display, and exit the test. The NIBP simulator must be exited separately.
NOTE:
The NIBP standard dynamic pressure simulation may produce Systolic / Mean / Diastolic
read outs on the Accutorr Plus outside of the specified limits. The pressure simulation
results may not be accepted as a measure of the Accutorr Plus clinical performance.

comes on, the pressure increases, and then the pump stops. After 10 seconds, verify
that the pressure settles below 100 mmHg. Compare the final pressure displayed to an
accurate external pressure gauge. The MAP LEDs reading should agree within ±1%
with the external pressure gauge. If it does not agree, a failure has occurred and
proceed to section 5.5.15 "Main Pressure Transducer Calibration" on page 5-14.
comes on, the pressure increases, and then the pump stops. After 10 seconds, verify
that the pressure settles between 100 mmHg and 200 mmHg. Compare the pressure
displayed to an accurate external pressure gauge. The pressure MAP LEDs reading
should agree within ±1% with the external pressure gauge. If it does not agree, a
failure has occurred and proceed to section 5.5.15 "Main Pressure Transducer
Calibration" on page 5-14.
comes on, the pressure increases, and then the pump stops. After 10 seconds, verify
that the pressure settles between 200 mmHg and 300 mmHg. Compare the final
pressure displayed to an accurate external pressure gauge; the MAP LEDs reading
should agree within ±1% with the external pressure gauge. If it does not agree, a
failure has occurred and proceed to section 5.5.15 "Main Pressure Transducer
Calibration" on page 5-14.
The reading and setting accuracy will be
dependent on the accuracy of the NIBP simulator
and the condition of the Accutorr Plus.
