    Introduction About the DINAMAP Compact Monitor DINAMAP Compact Monitors provide noninvasive determination of systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, pulse rate, temperature, and oxygen saturation. These portable AC- and operated monitors are primarily intended for use in hospital acute care settings such as outpatient surgery, accident and emergency, labor and delivery, GI/endoscopy, and medical/...
  • Page 5: Cautions

    Cautions 9 Do not use replacement batteries other than the type supplied with the Monitor. Replacement batteries are available from Critikon. See Appendix D. The DINAMAP Compacf Monitor is designed to conform to Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) standard IEC 601-l-2, 1993 and will operate accurately in conjunction with other medical equipment which also meets this requirement.
  • Page 6 Place the Compact Monitor on a rigid, secure surface. Monitor must only be used with mounting hardware, poles, and stands recommended by Critikon. See Appendix D. The weight of the accessory basket contents should not exceed 6.6 lb (3 kg).
  • Page 7: Getting Started

    This is also a good time to check for any damage or shortage. If there is a problem or shortage, contact Critikon. It is recommended that all the packaging be retained, in case the Monitor must be returned for service in the future.
  • Page 8 external power is being applied and that the battery is charging. If the battery is not inserted, the external power indicator LED will flash. When the Monitor is running on battery power, a battery icon appears in LCD area 3 (toggling with the time indicator) indicating the charge status.

    Using the Monitor Noninvasive Blood Pressure Determination Description The BP parameter is included in Models T, S, TS, and BP. Blood pressure is monitored noninvasively in the DINAMAP Compact Monitor by the oscillometric method, which measures the amplitude of the pressure oscillations within the blood pressure cuff.

    4. Vitals determinations are started by selecting the Vitals button in the Main menu. (Refer to the “Using the Menu System” section.) Selection of this button initiates SpOZ, and predictive temperature determinations (depending on Monitor model). In the Vitals mode, the blood pressure is determined one time.
  • Page 19: General Cautions

    The Compact Monitor is designed for use only with dual-tube cuffs. Use only accessories recommended by Critikon. Failure to use recommended accessories may result in inaccurate readings. See Appendix D. Blood pressure cuffs should be removed from the patient when the Monitor is powered off.

Differences may occur because electrical signals at the heart occasionally fail to produce a peripheral pulse or the patient may have poor peripheral perfusion. Also, if a patient’s beat-to- beat pulse amplitude varies significantly (e.g., because pulsus alternans, atrial fibrillation, or the use of a rapid-cycling artificial ventilator), blood pressure and...

The cuff pressure must drop below 5 mmHg (neonate) or 15 mmHg (adult) before another determination can be started. BP information will be displayed for 2 minutes on the LED unless another determination is started within that time frame.
  • Page 24 Stat Mode 4E?9 Multiple BP readings can be taken at any time by pressing the Stat key (13). If a Manual determination is not in progress, a 5-minute series of determinations will start. If a Manual determination is in progress, that determination will become the first in the series.

  • Page 33 Using the Monitor Circulation distal to the sensor site should be checked routinely. The site must be inspected every 8 hours to ensure adhesion, skin integrity, and correct optical alignment. If skin integrity changes, move the sensor to another site. Try to keep the patient still, or change the sensor site to one with less motion.

    At each step the microprocessor stores cuff pressure, the matched pulse amplitude, and the time between successive pulses. The stepped deflation and matched pulse detection continues until diastolic pressure is determined or total cuff pressure falls below 7 mmHg.
