The NIBP parameter will not measure blood pressure
effectively on patients who are experiencing seizures or
tremors.
Arrhythmias will increase the time required by the NIBP
parameter to determine a blood pressure and may extend the
time beyond the capabilities of the parameter.
Do not apply external pressure against the cuff while
monitoring. Doing so may cause inaccurate blood pressure
values. Use care when placing the cuff on an extremity used
to monitor other patient parameters.
NIBP cuff inflation/deflation may lead to inaccurate values
from other monitored patient parameters that are measured
distally from the NIBP measurement site at the same
extremity.
PATIENT SAFETY. Ensure that the connection tubing is not
kinked. Kinked tubing may cause continuous cuff pressure,
which can interfere with the blood flow and cause injury to
the patient.
PATIENT SAFETY. Do not place the cuff on the arm on the side
of a mastectomy as this may lead to injury or swelling of the
arm due to cuff pressurization. To avoid this risk, use another
limb if possible.
Do not place the cuff over a wound as this may cause further
injury.
