NIBP Monitoring
13-2
13.1 Overview
The Non-invasive Blood Pressure (NIBP) module measures blood pressure using the
oscillometric method. This monitor can be applied to adult, pediatric, and neonatal
patients. Three modes of measurement are available: manual, automatic and
continuous.
îš„ Manual: Pressing the NIBP key on the control panel starts a NIBP
measurement.
îš„ Auto: The NIBP measurement is conducted automatically at a preset interval.
îš„ Continuous: The NIBP measurement is performed as many times as possible in
five minutes.
The NIBP measurement does not produce any waveform. Instead, it displays the
measurement result in the NIBP parameter window as shown below.
Figure 13-1 NIBP Parameter Window
1. NIBP label: Selecting this label to access the NIBP SETUP menu.
2. Time of last measurement.
3. NIBP unit: mmHg or kPa.
4. Prompt information area: Shows the NIBP measurement mode and other
information.
5. Systolic pressure value (NS)
6. Mean pressure value (NM)
7. Diastolic pressure value (ND)
If a set of measured results appears in grey, it indicates this measurement is
performed at least 1 hour ago.
