AUTOMATIC SAFETY FEATURES
The monitor has been designed for patient safety. The maximum amount of time allowed to
complete a blood pressure measurement is 150 seconds. If the measurement has not been
completed within that time, the cuff is deflated automatically and a message is displayed
indicating the problem.
To prevent exposure of the extremity to an inordinately high pressure, the cuff is deflated
automatically when the pressure in the system is greater than 290 mmHg.
In the event of a microprocessor failure, the cuff will be deflated automatically within ten (10)
seconds.
All equipment parts are protected against the effects of the discharge of a defibrillator. No
separate actions are required when using this equipment with a defibrillator.
Should the AC power be interrupted coming into the monitor, the monitor automatically runs off
battery power. An indication of this would be a change in color of the Battery Charge LED from
Green to either Orange or Red.
Whenever the power is disconnected from the monitor and the monitor is not allowed to shut
down in an orderly fashion, the monitor, when re-powered alerts the user.
CAUTION:
Regardless of these safety features, always be sure to check that there are no signs of
prolonged impairment of patient circulation and that the monitor is functioning properly.
