Blood Pressure Determination
Description
The BP
parameter is included
in
Models 100, 200, 300, and
400. Blood pressure is monitored noninvasively
in the
PRO Monitor by the oscillometric method, which measures
the amplitude of the pressure oscillations within the blood
pressure cuff. Further information about the oscillometric
method is in Appendix C.
The PRO Monitor has four
BP modes:
1. Manual,
2. Auto, 3. Stat, and 4. Vitals
(UK: All Obs). The
mode,
which is selected by the user, is
shown on the LCD (25).
The
BP measurements are automatic, and once the cycle is
complete the LED displays (7, 9, 19, 22) show systolic
pressure, diastolic pressure, mean arterial pressure, and
pulse rate.
