Specifying Cuff Settings; Selecting A Measurement Mode - Philips SureSigns VS1 PM2200 Instrucciones De Uso

If for some reason the monitor does not detect arterial occlusion, it will inflate to the value specified in the
Initial Inflation Pressure setting, which is described below.
Note— If a patient is moving, shaking, or agitated during a blood pressure measurement, the Smart
Inflation feature might interpret the movement as a pulse. If this occurs, the cuff could potentially inflate to
a pressure higher than 180 mmHg (23.9 kPa). If your patient cannot remain still, Philips recommends that
you disable the Smart Inflation feature. To disable Smart Inflation, press the System soft key, and then press
the Cuff Option soft key. Use the OK button to move the cursor to the Smart Inflation choice and uncheck
the X. When Smart Inflation is disabled, the monitor will not inflate any higher than the value specified in
the Initial Inflation Pressure setting.

Specifying Cuff Settings

Use the Cuff Settings screen to specify the overall parameters of the NIBP cuff measurements. The cuff
pressure is shown in the mean arterial pressure (MAP) window during the measurement cycle.
