NIBP Alarm Message Summary
The 90217 ABP monitor provides an extensive set of result codes that indicate the
status of the monitor and the potential causes of an inability to take a valid
reading.
When any alarm message is displayed, the NIBP parameter value is immediately
changed to ??? and an alarm is triggered. If your module has been configured for
an alarm using the Module Configuration Manager, the parameter display will
blink yellow for Low and Medium priority alarms, and will blink red for High priority
alarms. The alarm condition will persist until a new NIBP reading is taken. (Refer
to the Module Configuration Manager chapter of the UCN Operations Manual).
The following messages are displayed on the UCN monitor to provide ABP status
information to the caregiver. These messages summarize the 90217 event codes.
Some of these messages include an event code in parentheses to provide more
detailed analysis of the event. A complete list of the event codes can be found in
the 90217 ABP Monitor Operations Manual (070-0137-xx).
NIBP UNAVAILABLE (xx)
Displayed when the 90217 ABP monitor has detected an internal condition,
defined by the code (xx). Typically, this indicates a hardware or software failure
that requires that the transmitter be removed from service.
NIBP READING FAILURE (xx)
Displayed when the ABP monitor was unable to make a reading. The code (xx)
defines the cause of failure.
NIBP AIR LEAK
Displayed when an air leak has been detected in the pneumatic system,
preventing a reading from being taken.
