12.5.7 Starting a STAT Measurement
To start a STAT measurement:
1. Select the NIBP parameter window to enter the [NIBP Setup] menu.
2. Select [NIBP STAT]. The STAT mode initiates 5 minutes of continuous, sequential, automatic NIBP measurements.
WARNING
Continuous non-invasive blood pressure measurements may cause purpura, ischemia and neuropathy in
the limb with the cuff. Inspect the application site regularly to ensure skin quality and inspect the cuffed
limb for normal color, warmth and sensitivity. If any abnormity occurs, move the cuff to another site or stop
the blood pressure measurements immediately.
12.6 Understanding the NIBP Numerics
The NIBP display shows numerics only as below. Your display may be configured to look slightly different.
1. Time of last measurement
