OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS:
Semi-Automatic Mode (Con't)
14 Resetting statMAP to clear the NSV
.
Clearing the NSV from statMAP occurs automatically or manually.
Automatic
1) Turn Unit OFF and back ON. (Record the NSV on the patient's
chart.)
2) Begin new BP Session with same or next patient by inflation of
the cuff.
3) Unit is cleared of all previous session NSV readings.
Manual
1) Turn Unit Off and back ON.
2) Inflate Cuff to approximately 160 mmHg, wait for 1 step down
deflation.
3) Open the Deflate Trigger in the down position.
4) The LEDs will light in sequence sweeping from 20 to 280, the
Cuff Site and Mode amber light will flash once or twice and go
out, the 20 LED will light and remain solid.
5) Unit is cleared of all previous session NSV readings.
NOTE: If for any reason the statMAP is unable to get a BP reading,
all LEDs will sequence around the dial once to indicate the failure
to determine the BP. The AMBR LEDs will flash to indicate to the
user to completely purge the cuff, which the user should do by fully
opening the deflate trigger (down position). Determine and correct
the reason for the BP measurement difficulty. Often the problem is
one or more of:
1) movement during the determination
2) cuff is not proper size or snugness (check size/fit)
3) initial cuff inflation is too low (pump cuff higher)
