STAT MODE

WARNING:

Readings obtained during STAT mode may not meet the stated accuracy of this monitor.

WARNING:

In some cases, rapid, prolonged cycling of an oscillometric, noninvasive blood pressure monitor

cuff has been associated with ischemia. Apply the oscillometric cuff appropriately, according to

instructions, and check the cuff site and cuffed extremity regularly when blood pressure is

measured at frequent intervals or over extended periods of time.

The CARDELL Monitor can automatically take a series of blood pressure measurements for a

five (5) minute interval with a brief (approx. ten (10) second) pause between determinations to

allow venous blood return.

Press and hold the START/STAT pushbutton for two (2) seconds to activate this feature. The

Message Window will display "STAT XXX", where “XXX” is the real time cuff pressure. Between

readings the Message Window will display "0:XX S" where “XX” is the 10-second count down

until the next measurement.

After five (5) minutes of determinations the monitor will stop taking measurements and exit the

STAT mode. The monitor will return to the Manual mode and the Message Window will return to

the "Ready" message.

In the STAT Mode, while during a measurement or in the idle time between measurements,

pressing the CANCEL pushbutton will cause the monitor to exit the STAT mode and return to

the Manual mode. The monitor’s front panel NIBP numeric displays will indicate the reading of

the previous measurement taken and the Message Window will display the time stamp of that

reading.

NOTE:

Pressing the CYCLE pushbutton during the Manual, Automatic or STAT Modes will terminate the

current NIBP measurement (if active) and place the monitor in the Automatic Cycle mode. The

user will then be allowed to alter the Cycle time, if necessary, and begin a new NIBP

measurement.

WARNING:

When monitoring over an extended period of time, or at frequent intervals, periodically observe

the patient’s limb to make sure that the circulation is not impaired for a prolonged period of time.
