N -I B
ON NVASIVE LOOD
The NIBP display area consists of:
• Symbols that represent the status of blood pressure measurements.
• Numbers that represent the measurement values (see Figure 2 and Table 1):

The movement of the Cuff Inflation Status Bar reflects the cuff inflation pressure. As the cuff inflates,
the Cuff Inflation Status Bar lengthens. As the cuff deflates, the Cuff Inflation Status Bar shortens.
When the cuff is fully deflated, the Cuff Inflation Status Bar is not displayed.
On M Series CCT units, a Patient Type indicator appears in the display area if the unit is in pediatric
("P") or neonatal ("N") mode. There is no Patient Type indicator if the unit is in adult patient mode
(default).
The Artifact Indicator flashes when the M Series unit detects artifact in the signal. (On M Series CCT
units, the Artifact Indicator alternates with the Patient Type indicator if the unit is in either pediatric
or neonatal patient mode.) Under such circumstances, perform additional blood pressure
measurements. If you repeatedly obtain artifact, use alternate techniques to obtain blood pressure prior
to taking clinical action.
The M Series default unit of measure is millimeters of mercury (mmHg), but you can configure the
M Series to display kilopascals (kPa). See the M Series Configuration Guide for information on
configuring alternate units of measure.
