Non-Invasive Blood Pressure (NIBP) measurement

Warning

If a cuff is used on a patient with an infection, treat the cuff as medical waste, or sterilize before
reuse.

If frequently performing NIBP measurement using a cuff over an extended period of time, periodically
check the patient's circulation. In addition, wrap the cuff as indicated in the cautionary points in this
manual.

Do not connect the NIBP cuff or cuff joint to a luer lock adapter.

Do not bend cuff tube during inflation and deflation, particularly after a change of body position.

Do not wrap the cuff on the following parts:

- An upper arm on which intravenous drip or a blood transfusion is being performed.

- An upper arm on which an SpO

- An upper arm with a shunt for hemodialysis

If measuring blood pressure with the cuff wrapped on the arm on the side of the body where a
mastectomy was performed, check the patient's condition.

Caution

NIBP measurement should be performed on the upper arm.

During NIBP, stop excessive body movement by the patient and minimize trembling.

If a doctor has indicated that the patient has hemorrhagic diathesis or hypercoagulability, check the
condition of the arm after measurement.

Use the appropriate cuff size to ensure correct measurements. If too large a cuff is used, the
measured blood pressure value tends to be lower than the actual blood pressure. If too small a cuff is
used, the measured blood pressure value tends to be higher.

Before and during measurement, verify that none of the following apply to the patient:

- An inappropriate cuff size is used.

- The part where the cuff is wrapped is at a different height than the heart.
(A difference of 4 inches (10 cm) in height may cause a variation in the blood pressure value of up
to 7 or 8 mmHg.)

- Body movement or conversing during measurement.

- Cuff wrapped over thick clothing.

- Pressure on the arm due to a rolled up sleeve.

In the case of a cuff for adults, the cuff should be wrapped to a tightness that allows two fingers to be
inserted in between the cuff and the arm.

The accuracy of a flashing measurement value that is out of the measurement range cannot be
guaranteed. Always check the patient's condition before deciding what steps to take.

Do not use the cuff if it is damaged or has holes.

Only OMRON GS CUFF can be used with this device.

• If the patient has acute inflammation, a pyogenic ailment, or an external wound at the location where
the cuff is to be wrapped, follow the instructions of the doctor.

• Non-Invasive Blood Pressure measurement (NIBP) is performed by compressing the upper arm.
Some people may experience intense pain, or transient spotting caused by subcutaneous
hemorrhaging (bruising) may appear. The spotting will disappear with time; however, it may be
appropriate to inform patients for whom this may be a concern that spotting sometimes occurs, and if
necessary, refrain from measurement.

Non-Invasive Blood Pressure (NIBP) Measurement

Non-Invasive Pressure Measurement Principles

Oscillometric method
The beat in the pulsation generated by the contraction of the heart is captured as the pressure inside
the cuff to measure the blood pressure. If the cuff wrapped around the upper arm is pressurized
sufficiently, the blood flow stops, but the beat of the pulsation is present and the pressure inside the cuff
receives this and oscillates. Next, as the pressure inside the cuff gradually decreases, the oscillation of
the pressure within the cuff gradually increases and reaches a peak. As the pressure within the cuff
decreases further, the oscillation decreases from its peak.
The pressure within the cuff and the relationship with the increase and decrease of the oscillation within
the cuff in this series of processes are stored into memory, calculations are carried out, and the blood
pressure value is determined.
The pressure within the cuff when the oscillation increases drastically is the systolic pressure and the
pressure within the cuff when the oscillation decreases drastically is the diastolic pressure. Also, the
pressure within the cuff when the oscillation peaks is taken as the average pulsation pressure.
The oscillometric method does not determine the blood pressure value instantly like a microphone type
automatic blood pressure gauge with the auscultation method, but rather determines it from the series
of change curves as explained above. Therefore, it is not easily affected by external noise, an electric
scalpel or other electro surgical instruments.

Warning

Treat a cuff used on a patient with an infection as medical waste, or sufficiently sterilize the cuff
before reuse.

Caution

• Do not use the cuff if it is damaged or has holes.

• Use the appropriate cuff size to ensure correct measurements. If too large a cuff is used, the

measured blood pressure value tends to be lower than the actual blood pressure. If too small a cuff is
used, the measured blood pressure value tends to be higher.

Note:

It is important to use the correct sized cuff for a patient in order to get an accurate reading.

Measure the circumference of the patient's arm and select the cuff size
that is appropriate for the circumference.

Select the cuff that is suitable for the patient from the cuffs below.

Connecting the cuff

Connect the cuff tube to the NIBP connector on the unit and turn
clockwise to lock.

Caution

Only OMRON GS CUFF can be used with this device.

Note:

• If the cuff tube is too short, the optional 3.5 m or 1.5 m CUFF HOSE can be connected to lengthen the

cuff tube. Do not make the hose longer than 3.5 m, as this will affect measurement accuracy.

• Make sure the connections are tight.

Non-Invasive Blood Pressure (NIBP) Measurement

Applying the Cuff to the Patient

1. Wrap on a bare arm or over thin clothing.

Wrap the cuff on a bare arm or over thin clothing. Thick clothing or a rolled up sleeve will cause
inaccurate blood pressure measurements.
The device can be used on either the right or left arm.

2. Align the artery mark "INDEX ARTERY" with the brachial artery.

Run the cuff tube out the peripheral side with no bends (the brachial artery is on the inner side of the
patient's upper arm).

Make sure that "
1/2 -1 inches from the inner side of the elbow joint.

INDEX ARTERY" is outside the "RANGE", error in the blood pressure value will increase. In this

If "
case, use a different cuff size.

As a guideline for the tightness of the cuff, It should be possible to insert about two fingers under the
cuff.

1/2"-1"

3. During measurement, keep the brachial artery on which the cuff is
wrapped at the same height as the right atrium of the heart.

20

Caution

Make sure the cuff is wrapped in the correct arm position and is at the same height as the heart.
A difference of 4 inches (10 cm) in height may cause a variation in the blood pressure value of up to
7 - 8 mmHg.

Note:

• If measurement is difficult due to arrhythmia, use a different blood pressure measurement method.

• If the patient has acute inflammation, a pyogenic ailment, or an external wound at the location where
the cuff is to be wrapped, follow the instructions of the doctor.

• Non-Invasive Blood Pressure (NIBP) measurement is performed by compressing the upper arm.
Some people may experience intense pain, or transient spotting caused by subcutaneous hemorrhaging
may appear. The spotting will disappear over time, however, if it is possible that this will disturb the patient,
try the following technique:

- Wrap a thin towel or cloth (one layer) under the cuff.

If the towel or cloth is too thick, there will be insufficient cuff compression and the blood pressure value
will measure high.

• If the patient moves or the cuff is touched, this may be falsely detected as a pulse and over-inflation
will occur.

• Do not inflate the cuff when it is not wrapped on the upper arm. This may damage the cuff.

Taking the Measurement in "Manual Mode"

1. Press the [START/STOP] button.

Blood pressure measurement is performed once.

2. The measurement results are displayed.

If a measurement value is outside the corresponding range below, the value will flash.
SYS: 59 mmHg or less, or 251 mmHg or higher.
DIA: 39 mmHg or less, or 201 mmHg or higher.

PULSE: 39 bpm or less, or 201 bpm or higher.

■ Normal measurement ■ Measurement error /
failure

Caution

The accuracy of a flashing measurement value that is outside the measurement range is not
guaranteed. Always check the patient's condition before deciding what steps to take.

Note:

If inflation is insufficient, inflation may restart while measurement is in progress.
