  • Page 17: Factors To Take Into Account

    • To avoid minor tail movements that may cause artefacts, and improve transducer contact at the same time, it should be held using the guide on the accessory plate of the PANLAB traps (ref. LE 5095, in which case it is a good idea to work with the cuff/transducer jointly).

  • Page 18: On The Proper Treatment Of The Animals And Their Environment

    LE 5002 Non Invasive Blood Pressure Meter 7.2. ON THE PROPER TREATMENT OF THE ANIMALS AND THEIR ENVIRONMENT. • The room or laboratory where the measurements are to be taken should be free from environmental noises that may affect the animal’s tranquillity.

  • Page 19: Recommended Methodology

    Nevertheless, with these sources it is sometimes difficult to control the temperature the animal is submitted to; whereas ventilated heaters with thermostats offer greater possibilities (PANLAB offers various such devices in its catalogue). • IT IS VERY IMPORTANT to bear in mind that if the animal is overheated, as...

  • Page 20: Anaesthetising The Animals

    LE 5002 Non Invasive Blood Pressure Meter 7.5. ANAESTHETISING THE ANIMALS The experimenter may also anaesthetise the animals, if there are any doubts regarding the vasodilatation process. In any case, and if vasodilatation is not performed, the temperature around the animals must always be kept at a minimum of 25ºC.

The pulse wave (PULSE WAVE plug outlet) and the pressure variation (PRESSURE CUFF) of the cuff can be reproduced on paper with recorders, oscilloscopes or a data capture system such as PowerLab, BioPac or to the NIBP Chart software.

  • Page 23: Starting Up The Unit

    LE 5002 Non Invasive Blood Pressure Meter 9. STARTING UP THE UNIT Before taking any measurements, wait 5 minutes to allow the instrument to reach its normal working temperature. • Connect the cuff to the CUFF plug. Following the direction of the yellow arrow, insert it until it locks into place (indicated with a click).
  • Page 24 LE 5002 Non Invasive Blood Pressure Meter Figure 18. Cuff and Transducer placing in the tail. • Adjust the instrument GAIN until a proper pulse signal level is achieved on the pulse level display, avoiding unnecessary amplification increases. Such increases should be avoided because if the graph were to remain on the outside area it might not inform on the presence of artefacts or important frequency instability (the graph would oscillate).
  • Page 25 LE 5002 Non Invasive Blood Pressure Meter • After a short delay, a valve opens, slowly decreasing the cuff pressure. • The pressure value (the current value of which is shown under the DIA label on the digital display) will go down until the pulse level reaches its initial level again.

    LE 5002 Non Invasive Blood Pressure Meter 12. CHECKING OPERATION 12.1. PUMP CALIBRATION The procedure described below is for users to calibrate the pressure value on the display, which corresponds to the pressure in the cuff at all times. Proceed as follows: 1.

  • Page 29: Simulating Systolic Pressure

    LE 5002 Non Invasive Blood Pressure Meter To check the tail cuff, insert a solid element (i.e., a pencil) into it as a substitute for the animal’s tail and repeat the procedure described above. You can thus check for possible leaks in the membrane/cuff set.

  • Page 30: Transducer

    LE 5002 Non Invasive Blood Pressure Meter 12.4. TRANSDUCER A transducer in a good state of repair will NOT give pulses (BEAT), when left without vibrations and at maximum gain (GAIN on the right), although the odd intermittent impulse may be observed.

  • Page 31: Replacing The Cuff Membrane

    Generally, they should be changed when the first signs of loss of flexibility or drying are observed. The membrane must be an original PANLAB component. The use of parts made by other manufacturers is not recommended, as there is a major difference in the elasticity of the rubber between different makes, causing unpredictable cuff response.

Removing O rings and membrane. 3. Insert the new membrane into the cuff. Make sure that it is not taut to prevent additional strain on the cuff pressure.
