Operational Verification

These procedures verify that the 90217 ABP monitor's blood pressure readings are consistent with
design standards.
Note:
These procedures use the DynaTech Nevada CuffLink Blood Pressure Simulator. If
you are using a different simulator, refer to its operator's manual and determine
equivalent tests. Refer to the end of this Maintenance chapter for instructions on using
the CuffLink simulator in the automatic or the manual mode.
Equipment Required
• DynaTech Nevada CuffLink Noninvasive Blood Pressure Analyzer (and equivalent) and
associated tubing, manuals, fittings (software version 2.0 or higher is required)
• 1/8 inch I. D. tubing (P/N 162-0019-00 or equivalent)
• Adult cuff (P/N 016-0264-00 or equivalent)
• Luer connector (P/N 103-0008-00)
Blood Pressure Simulator Preparation
1 Turn ON the CuffLink simulator and allow it to warm up for a minimum of 15 minutes.
2 Verify that the calibration sticker is current. If it is not, the simulator will need to be calibrated by
the manufacturer or its authorized service facility.
3 Check the zero pressure by selecting ADAMS Adult from SelectBp in the Main Menu.
4 Press ENT.
5 Press F5 to zero the pressure.
