Monitoring NBP
2000966-386D Dash™ 3000/4000/5000 10-5
WARNING
—Do not place the cuff on a limb being used for A-V fistulas,
intravenous infusion or on any area where circulation is
compromised or has the potential to be compromised.
WARNING
—Do not apply external pressure against the cuff while monitoring.
Doing so may cause inaccurate blood pressure values.
WARNING
—Use care when placing the cuff on an extremity used to monitor
other patient parameters.
WARNING
—Arrhythmias will increase the time required by the NBP
parameter to determine a blood pressure and may extend the time
beyond the capabilities of the parameter.
WARNING
—For SuperSTAT NBP (Adult/Pediatric) Only. It takes one to three
minutes for the NBP parameter to establish irregular rhythm after
ECG is connected. (The NBP parameter will relearn the rhythm in
the event of a lead fault, disconnect, or lead switch.) In patients with
irregular rhythm, wait three minutes after ECG has been connected
and ECG heart rate is present on the monitor screen before
performing an NBP determination.
CAUTION
—Accuracy of NBP measurement depends on using a cuff of the
proper size. It is essential to measure the circumference of the limb
and select the proper size cuff.
