NBP Monitoring: Introduction
Introduction
NOTE
The Accutracker DX noninvasive blood pressure monitor is available
in the United States only. This model, available from GE Medical
Systems Information Technologies, has been modified by SunTech
Medical Instruments to operate with the ApexPro telemetry system.
NBP monitoring via telemetry is done with an Accutracker DX
noninvasive blood pressure monitor connected to the ApexPro
transmitter. The blood pressure cuff is connected to the Accutracker DX
blood pressure monitor, which measures and displays systolic and
diastolic blood pressures using the auscultatory method. When the blood
pressure monitor is connected to an ApexPro transmitter, digital values
are also displayed at the CIC Pro.
WARNING
The following conditions may affect the accuracy of
noninvasive blood pressure readings: seizures, tremors,
extreme hypotension or hypertension, arrhythmias, or
extremely high or low heart rate.
