3. Set IBP1 Label or IBP2 Label.
• The same label cannot be selected for different pressures. When two pressures are detected having
the same label, the monitor automatically changes one pressure label to a currently unused one.
13.5.3 Setting the Pressure Type for Display
For the non-specific pressure (P1, P2, P3 or P4), the displayed pressure type is configurable. To set the displayed
pressure type, follow this procedure:
1. Select the numeric area or waveform area of the non-specific pressure to enter the corresponding pressure
dialog.
2. Select the
Setup tab.
3. Set
Measure:
â—† If this non-specific pressure is arterial pressure, set the Measure to All. In this case, its corresponding
numeric area displays systolic pressure, diastolic pressure and mean pressure.
â—† If this non-specific pressure is venous pressure, set the Measure to Mean Only. In this case, its
corresponding numeric area displays only the mean pressure.
13.5.4 Changing the Sensitivity
The IBP value displayed on the monitor screen is the average of data collected within a specific time. The shorter
the averaging time is, the quicker the monitor responds to changes in the patient’s blood pressure, and the
higher the sensitivity. Contrarily, the longer the averaging time is, the slower the monitor responds to changes in
the patient’s blood pressure, the lower the sensitivity, but the measurement accuracy will be improved. For
critically ill patients, selecting higher sensitivity will help with understanding the patient’s state.
To set the sensitivity, follow this procedure:
1. Select the IBP numeric area or waveform area to enter the corresponding pressure dialog.
2. Select the
Setup tab.
3. Set
Sensitivity.
13.5.5 Setting the IBP Waveform
To set the IBP waveform, follow this procedure:
1. Select the IBP numeric area or waveform area to enter the corresponding pressure dialog.
2. Select the
Setup tab.
3. Set the following properties of the IBP waveform:
â—† Speed
◆ Scale: if Auto is selected, the size of the pressure’s waveform will be adjusted automatically.
