Using the NIBP Parameter
This chapter includes information specific to the non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP) parameter. Refer to chapters
4-6 for general step-by-step monitoring instructions. The remainder of this chapter assumes that the monitor is
properly installed and set up.
Non-invasive Blood Pressure Measurement Capability
The non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP) parameter provides systolic, diastolic, and mean arterial blood pressure
values. The measured values for non-invasive blood pressure (SYS, DIA, and MAP) are displayed in the NIBP
parameter box. The time of the last successful reading will also be displayed. If 24 hours have passed since the
last NIBP reading, the measured values will be removed. NIBP measurements can be made in automatic, manual,
or STAT modes.
