46 Patient monitoring Welch Allyn Propaq Encore Vital Signs Monitor
START/STOP Starts and stops NIBP measurements. Any time the Propaq Encore is
taking a noninvasive pressure measurement, the
START button
changes to
STOP so you can stop the measurement in progress. This
button initiates the same action as the
START/STOP button at the left
side of the screen. Pressing
STOP will automatically vent the cuff.
AUTO/MAN This button switches the mode between Automatic or Manual Mode.
The Manual Mode is the default unless you change it by
reprogramming your Propaq. Measurements can be taken at intervals
of 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, 15, 30, and 60 minutes. Press
START to initiate a
measurement.
INTERVAL Selects the interval at which NIBP measurements are automatically
taken. The interval you select, ranging from one minute to 60 minutes,
is shown on the display next to the word TIME.
TURBOCUF Automatically starts NIBP measurements and continues to take as
many measurements as possible within five minutes.
SMARTCUF Enables or disables the Smartcuf motion artifact filter. NIBP
measurements can still be taken when Smartcuf is off. Artifact may
interfere with the accuracy of NIBP measurements with Smartcuf off.

This symbol indicates the NIBP reading was taken in
the presence of high motion artifact while
