Monitoring Pulse Rate - Welch Allyn 300 Series Directions For Use Manual

Directions for Use
For example: If the monitor is set to Neonatal and you set MAP Disabled, MAP Disabled
becomes the default setting for neonatal patients until you change the enabled/disabled
setting again.
Enabling and disabling MAP measurement
See "MAP measurement enable and disable"
STAT measurement
If the selected interval is STAT, the monitor takes repeated NIBP measurements for 5
minutes, starting a new cycle each time the cuff deflates below safe venous return
pressure (SVRP) for two seconds.
Current cuff pressures are not dynamically displayed during a STAT reading. The message
window displays the NIBP reading from the previous cycle until the current cycle finishes.
(Before the first cycle finishes, the display reads '0.')

Monitoring pulse rate

The monitor displays the pulse rate at the end of all NIBP or SpO
displays NIBP pulse information only if no SpO

display rises, the stronger the measured pulse; however, the height of the indicator
display is not mathematically proportional to the volume of the pulse.
