CASMED 740 Vital Signs Monitor - Implox

CASMED 740 Monitors
IMPORTANT:
Excessive patient motion can contribute to inaccurate measurements. It is important that the
patient be kept still during a measurement. Make every attempt to alleviate fear, anxiety and
pain.
Press the START pushbutton to begin a measurement. For the first measurement the monitor
will inflate to the default setting or the Initial Inflation Pressure selected.
NOTE:
When the monitor is configured in the Alarms Off mode, the message “Alrm Off” is displayed in
the Message Window, the cuff inflation pressure will always be set to 150 mmHg (Adult) and 85
mmHg (Neonate). Also, as an example, if the Initial Inflation Pressure was set to 100 mmHg,
the first NIBP inflation pressure would be 100 mmHg followed by pressures at 150 mmHg.
The monitor’s front panel NIBP displays will indicate all dashes “- -“ while the measurement is in
progress and the Message Window displays the Inflation Pressure in the format “Meas XXX”,
where “XXX” is the pressure value. For subsequent measurements, the monitor will inflate
approximately 30 mmHg higher than the previously determined Systolic pressure.
The measurement typically takes less than 30 seconds to complete. In no case will the cuff
remain pressurized for more than 120 seconds for Adult/Pediatric patients and no more than 90
seconds for Neonates.
When the measurement is completed, the cuff will automatically deflate and the monitor will
display the Systolic, Diastolic, MAP (if enabled), and Pulse Rate values on the front panel
displays. The Message Window displays a time stamp of the NIBP measurement in the format
“BP HH:MM”. Where “HH” is the hour and “MM” is the minute of the measurement taken.
NOTE:
If SpO 2 is active, the Pulse Rate value will be determined from the SpO 2 measurement.
Press the CANCEL pushbutton, at any time, to stop a measurement and deflate the cuff during
the measurement process. The monitor’s front panel NIBP displays will indicate all dashes “- - “
and the Message Window returns to “Ready”.
The CANCEL pushbutton can be pressed after a measurement is taken to clear the current
reading from the displays. The monitor’s front panel NIBP displays will indicate all dashes “- -“
and the Message Window returns to “Ready”.
NOTE:
If any displayed NIBP measurement were to be left on the display for up to twenty-four (24)
hours, the monitor will automatically blank the displays to all dashes “- -“ and the Message
Window returns to “Ready”.
