Alarm List
Arterial Pressure Alarms
Appears:
The arterial pressure has reached the set arterial pressure
high alarm limit.
Machine actions:
- The blood pump stops.
- The venous blood line clamp closes.
- The ultrafiltration rate is set to zero and the dialysis
fluid is bypassed from the dialyzer (when blood is
detected).
When the arterial pressure is within the set alarm limits
again, the blood pump automatically starts and the venous
blood line clamp opens.
Possible cause:
- The arterial blood line has separated from the arterial
needle.
- The position of the arterial needle has c hanged.
- Air or infusion fluid have entered the arterial blood
line between the arterial needle and the blood pump
e.g. when an infusion is connected to the arterial
blood line prior to the blood pump.
