General
The BP RECORDER 58500 combines three main systems
pressure generation-pressure monitoring system
l
a pulse amplifier and
l
a thermal-array analog & digital recording unit
l
with two auxiliary systems
pulse rate measuring and recording
l
microprocessor controlled functions to self diagnosis,
l
calibration, signal filtering, signal storage.
Instrument Description
Pressure is transmitted to the tail cuff; as soon the cuff
pressure exceeds the diastolic pressure and starts to nar-
row the tail artery, the amplitude of the recorder pulse
wave gradually decreases until the artery is completely
constricted (ischemic), the graph becoming a straight line.
This point indicates the maximum internal pressure of the
artery (systolic pressure) on the paper grid, on which the
actual pressure of the system is digitally printed in 10
mm Hg steps.
At the end of the recording a second pressure measure-
ment can be started, with decreasing pressure. The sy-
stolic pressure is indicated, this time, by the return of the
pulse tracing.
The animal pulse rate can be assessed in real time by a
pulse rate counter which picks the signal from the pulse
transducer.
