3.5.3 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS DURING THE NIBP MESURAMENT
This module should not be used when oscillometric pulses may be altered by other devices or techniques
such as External Counterpulsation (ECP) or IntraAortic Balloon Pump Counterpulsation.
D
O NOT USE THE NIBP MODULE FOR ANY OTHER PURPOSE THAN SPECIFIED IN THIS MANUAL WITHOUT WRITTEN
CONSENT AND APPROVAL FROM PROGETTI S
DO NOT USE IN THE PRESENCE OF FLAMMABLE GASEOUS ANESTHESIA AGENTS BECAUSE OF FLAME
HAZARD.
DO NOT ATTACH THE CUFF TO A LIMB BEING USED FOR IV INFUSIONS AS THE CUFF INFLATION CAN BLOCK
THE INFUSION, POTENTIALLY CAUSING HARM TO THE PATIENT.
A WRONG SIZE OF NIBP CUFF MAY GIVE FALSE AND MISLEADING RESULTS WHEN USED DURING NIBP
MEASUREMENTS.
THE NIBP MODULE IS DESIGNED TO WORK WITH SUNTECH® CUFFS AND HOSES. THE USE OF OTHER
BRANDS MAY COMPROMISE PERFORMANCE AND ACCURACY.
THE REPLACEMENT OF A DIFFERENT PART FROM THAT RECOMMENDED AND/OR SUPPLIED MAY RESULT
IN MEASUREMENT ERROR. REPAIRS SHOULD BE UNDERTAKEN ONLY BY PERSONNEL TRAINED OR
AUTHORIZED BY PROGETTI S.R.L.
Accuracy of any blood pressure measurement may be affected by the position of the subject, his
or her physical condition and use outside of the operating instructions detailed in this manual.
Interpretation of blood pressure measurements should be made only by a physician or trained
medical staff.
If the blood pressure cuff is on the same limb as a pulse oximeter probe, the oxygen saturation
results will be altered when the cuff occludes the brachial artery.
To obtain accurate blood pressure readings, the cuff must be the correct size, and also be
correctly fitted to the patient. Incorrect size or incorrect fitting may result in incorrect readings.
When a cuff is going to be positioned on a patient for an extended length of time, be sure to
occasionally check the limb for proper circulation. The module may not operate correctly if used
or stored outside the relevant temperature or humidity ranges described in the Performance
specifications.
