ERIES ON NVASIVE
If the R Series unit is configured to automatically generate strips, it prints a history of the STAT
measurements at the end of the 5-minute period.
Caution Before taking the first measurement, a period of at least 5 minutes should elapse to give time for
blood pressure stabilization.
Aborting STAT Measurements
You can abort STAT measurements at any time. Doing so terminates the current measurement
and all subsequent measurements.
To abort STAT measurements, either:
Press the NIBP button (
•
Press the NIBP Stat softkey.
•
If the NIBP Stat softkey label is not displayed, see "Displaying the NIBP Menu" on page 12.
The R Series unit immediately aborts all measurements, and the cuff deflates.
Taking Automatic Measurements
You can set the R Series unit to automatically take a series of measurements at selected
intervals. For example, if you set the R Series unit to take an automatic measurement with an
interval of 15 minutes, it immediately takes a measurement, waits 15 minutes, takes another
measurement, waits another 15 minutes, and so on.
To take automatic measurements at set intervals, you must:
1. Set the measurement interval (if not set to desired value).
2. Start automatic measurements.
Setting the Measurement Interval
Before you take automatic measurements, ensure that the measurement interval is properly set.
The measurement interval is the time period between when one measurement starts and the
next measurement starts. The measurement interval options (in minutes) are: 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8,
9, 10, 15, 20, 30, 45, 60, 90, and 120.
When you turn on the R Series unit, the measurement interval is set to the default value of
30 minutes. To change the default, see the R Series Configuration Guide.
To set measurements intervals:
1. Press the the Settings softkey, then the Auto Interval softkey from the NIBP menu.
If the Settings softkey is not displayed, see "Displaying the NIBP Menu" on page 12.
The R Series unit displays the Auto Interval menu:
Press the Inc or the Dec softkey to scroll through the interval options.
