CAUTION: Dispose of used battery promptly in accordance with local laws. Keep away from children. Do not disassemble and do not dispose of in fire.

Due to the self-discharge characteristics of a Sealed Lead

Acid type battery, it is imperative that it is charged for 8 hours after 6 to 9 months of storage (or unit not in use). If not, permanent loss of capacity may occur as a result of sulfation. Charge retention at 20°C is 6 months to 83%.

Sealed Lead Acid and Lithium Ion batteries have no

“memory” characteristics, therefore, deep cycling is not recommended.

CAUTION: Recharge the Sealed Lead Acid battery with the Datascope

Charger P/N 0014-00-0032-02 or while the battery is inside the unit.

CAUTION: Recharge the Lithium ion battery while in the unit at room temperature. If the Accutorr Plus is being used in a hot environment, the Lithium Ion battery may not charge when the unit is connected to AC. This safety feature is important because charging a hot battery shortens the battery’s life span.

Introduction Product Limitations

Product Limitations

Non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP) accuracy depends on the application of the proper cuff size. See Section 3.0 for detailed information.

The Accutorr Plus will not operate effectively on patients who are experiencing convulsions or tremors.

The Accutorr Plus is a portable device intended for intra-hospital use.

If the pressure cuff is not placed at the patient’s heart level, the NIBP measurement may be subject to error, due to the hydrostatic effect.

The pulse rate data displayed on the Datascope Accutorr Plus is computed from the measurement of peripheral pulses (peripheral pulses taken only during a measurement cycle).

The rate measured by the Datascope Accutorr Plus may differ from the rate of an ECG monitor. This is because the ECG is an electrical signal that may not always result in a peripheral pulse.

Administration of certain vasoconstrictive drugs (for example, norepinephrine), may reduce peripheral perfusion to a level that prevents the Accutorr Plus from taking pulse rate measurements.

Arterial compression, tricuspid regurgitation, or other conditions may reduce perfusion to a level that prevents the Accutorr Plus from taking pulse rate measurements.

The presence of arrhythmias may increase the time required to complete a measurement and may extend this time to a point where a measurement cannot be completed.

The Datascope Accutorr Plus is not intended for use during CPR. The monitor uses an oscillometric technique based on normal peripheral circulation to compute blood pressure.

On occasion, increased motion, prolonged crying, or hyperactivity may produce measurements with a status code of 8810 (RETRY-UNABLE TO MEASURE) or 8813 (STOP-

UNABLE TO MEASURE). See section 3.16 for a list of status and error codes.

Unpacking

Remove the instrument from the shipping carton and examine it for signs of shipping damage. Save all packing materials, invoice, and bill of lading. These may be required to process a claim with the carrier. Check all materials against the packing list. Contact the

Datascope Customer Service Department (800) 288-2121 or (201) 265-8800 for prompt assistance in resolving shipping problems.

The Datascope Accutorr Plus is available in 3 models. They are, the Accutorr Plus NIBP, the

Accutorr Plus NIBP with Trend Screen and the Accutorr Plus NIBP with Trend Screen and

SpO

(Nellcor, or Masimo). Each model is supplied with Lithium Ion Battery Technology. The

Accutorr Plus NIBP measures non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP) and pulse rate. The Accutorr

Plus with Trend Screen incorporates a liquid crystal display (LCD). The LCD is used to view stored measurements (trend) and to access a menu system which is used to set the alarm volume and the SpO

beep volume and display view angle. The Accutorr Plus with Trend

Screen and SpO

adds the automatic SpO

measurement function with your choice of

Nellcor, or Masimo SpO

. In this manual, when a feature is described and it only refers to a particular model, it will be noted. When the name Accutorr Plus is used, it refers to all 3 models.

On all units temperature can be measured with the optional Predictive Thermometer Module

(PTM) or the optional AccuTemp IR Infrared Thermometer Module. All units can also be optionally equipped with a recorder module for documenting NIBP, pulse rate, SpO

and temperature information. Each printout includes the time and date of each measurement taken.

The Accutorr Plus can store up to 100 measurements in memory. These 100 measurements are shared by the number of patients that are monitored by the Accutorr Plus. When only one patient is monitored, then that one patient can have up to 100 measurements stored. When more than one patient is monitored each patient can have any number of measurements stored as long as the total number of stored measurements for all patients equals 100 or less.

The Accutorr Plus features front panel digital displays for Mean Arterial Pressures,

Temperature and Time and extra large displays for the Systolic, Diastolic, Pulse Rate and

SpO

. The Accutorr Plus models with Trend Screen incorporate a Liquid Crystal Display

* When using the thigh cuff, this product may not comply with product specifications listed in chapter 6.

** The limb circumferences of the color coded cuffs adhere to the AHA guidelines for size. They also incorporate index and range lines to assist in cuff selection. The cuff bladder and hose contain Natural Latex rubber. The bladder has a dacron cover.

A cuff that is too small for the limb will result in erroneously high readings. The correct size of the pressure cuff for a given patient has, among other considerations, a direct bearing on the accuracy of the obtained NIBP measurements. Base your selection of the cuff size on the limb circumference of the patient. The table above indicates the available Datascope cuffs for use with the Accutorr Plus. The design dimensions of the cuffs and their intended uses are based on recommendations of the American Heart Association.

NOTE: The cuffs that are used with the Accutorr Plus use special snap on connectors. Adapter hoses are available to connect

older style cuff connectors. See Accutorr Plus Versions, section 5.0 in the Operating Instructions for a detailed list of

cuffs and adapter hoses.

Operating Instructions 0070-10-0428-02 3 - 5

Manual NIBP Measurements and General NIBP Measurement Information Operation

WARNING: Use only Datascope accessories. Use of other than

Datascope accessories may result in erroneous measurements.

The pressure on the limb may not fall to zero between measurements if the cuff is wrapped too tightly. Therefore, assure that the cuff is properly applied.

The skin is sometimes fragile (i.e., on pediatrics, geriatrics, etc.). In these cases, a longer timer interval should be considered to decrease the number of cuff inflations over a period of time.

NOTE: In extreme cases, a thin layer of soft roll or webril cotton padding may be applied to the limb in order to cushion the skin when the cuff is inflated. This measure may affect NIBP performance and should be used with caution.

2. Attach the cuff hose to the NIBP cuff connector (18). To do this, hold the hose behind the knurled pressure fitting (female). Push onto the male connector until a click is heard. To remove, hold the knurled female fitting and pull firmly to release.

3. Apply the cuff to the patient. To reduce errors, the cuff should fit snugly, but with enough room for two fingers to be placed between the cuff and the patient’s arm (on adults), and with little or no air present within the cuff. Cuff should fit loosely on neonates. Apply the cuff so that the center of the inflation bag (bladder) is over the brachial artery. Be sure that the INDEX line on the cuff falls between the two RANGE lines. If not, a larger or smaller cuff is required. Be sure the cuff lies directly against the patient’s skin. For best results, the cuff should be placed on the arm at heart level and no clothing should come between the patient and the cuff.

NOTE: Avoid compression or restriction of the pressure hose. The

NIBP cuff should not be placed on a limb that is being utilized for any other medical procedure. For example, an

I.V. Catheter.

4. If required, select the patient size with the PATIENT SETUP key (37). On initial power up, the configurable default setting is used. Otherwise, the last selected patient size is used.

Initial default cuff inflation pressures depend on the Patient Size setting. See section

3.2.2 for details on changing the initial cuff inflation pressure.

5. Press the START NIBP key (38) to begin an NIBP measurement. A beep is sounded after a completed measurement.

NOTE: Inflate the cuff only after proper application to the patient’s limb. Cuff damage can result if the cuff is left unwrapped and then inflated.

The cuff begins to inflate to the selected cuff pressure. After reaching the selected pressure, the cuff begins to slowly deflate and the Accutorr Plus collects oscillometric pulsations.

If the initial cuff inflation is found to be inadequate, the unit retries with a higher inflation pressure (+50 mmHg in the adult mode; +50 in the pediatric mode; +40 mmHg in the neonate mode). A triple beep tone is generated.

NOTE: Any time there is an unsuccessful NIBP measurement, a triple beep tone is generated.

Manual NIBP Measurements and General NIBP Measurement Information

Have the patient remain still to avoid unnecessary motion artifact. After the cuff pressure drops below the diastolic pressure, the results of the measurement are displayed and the cuff is vented to atmosphere.

If an error code displays in the Systolic Display or a status code in the Room/Bed Display,

refer to Section 3.16, Status and Error Codes, for its explanation. A successful measurement

clears a status code. To clear a status code, press the ROOM/BED NUMBER key (24).

6. When required, press the DEFLATE key (36) to interrupt a measurement. The cuff will deflate.

NOTE:

Once the initial measurement is taken for a room/bed, the

Accutorr Plus will continue to use the selected patient size.

Check the patient’s limb for any indications of circulation impairment.

NIBP Pressure Limit Fail Safe

If the cuff is over-pressurized, it will automatically deflate and the status code 8812 (STOP -

CUFF OVER PRESSURE) or error code 987 (STOP - HARDWARE OVER PRESSURE) will be displayed in the Room/Bed or systolic display.

The unit must be turned off and back on again to reset the hardware over-pressure switch

(error code 987) before any new measurements can be taken.

Cuff Inflation Time

If the cuff pressure does not attain 20 mmHg within 40 seconds of the start of inflation or if the target pressure is not reached within another 60 seconds, then the cuff is deflated and

status codes will be displayed in the Room/Bed display. See section 3.16 for a list of error

and status codes.

Automatic Adjustment of Cuff Inflation Pressure (Adaptive

Inflation)

The unit adjusts the inflation pressure according to the previous reading of the systolic pressure. After the first successful measurement, the inflation pressure is the previous systolic

+50 mmHg in the adult mode, +50 mmHg in the pediatric mode and +40 mmHg in the neonate mode. When not in Interval mode the Adaptive inflation may be disabled.

To view the current inflation pressure, press and hold (2 beep tones, approximately 3 seconds) the Patient Setup Key (37). The current inflation pressure is shown in the MAP display. If required, use the Patient Info. Up & Down arrow keys (27 & 28) to change the inflation pressure. It is also possible to permanently override this adjustment in the User

Configuration. See section 3.15 for details.

Operation

Automatic NIBP Measurements (Interval Mode)

The Accutorr Plus can be set to automatically take NIBP measurements. On initial power up, the interval setting will default to OFF. The User Configuration mode can be used to set

custom defaults for the Interval Mode. See section 3.15, User Configuration for details. In this

mode, the adaptive inflation is always enabled.

Follow Steps 1 - 4 in the Manual Procedure, section 3.3, to select, attach and apply the cuff

and to adjust the initial cuff inflation pressure.

5. Press the INTERVAL key (34). The current selection is displayed in the Interval/

Elap.Time/Temp. display (33). Press the INTERVAL key to scroll to the next available interval selection. The selections are: Off (—— when set to graphic display), CONT

(continuous), 1, 2.5, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 60, 120 and 240 minutes. When an interval setting is selected, except for Off, the Interval Indicator (35) flashes. When the interval mode is activated the Interval Indicator illuminates continuously.

6. The displayed interval time is entered when the INTERVAL key has not been pressed for

15 seconds or, when the TIMER/TEMP key (32) is pressed, which changes the display back to Elap. Time or, when the START NIBP key (38) is pressed, which initiates an NIBP measurement, activates the Interval Mode, and changes the display back to Elap. Time.

7. If the START NIBP key (38) has not already been pressed, press to take a measurement and to activate the interval mode.

NOTE:

If the interval time is changed, the START NIBP key does not need to be pressed for the new interval to initiate. When the new time interval has elapsed, a measurement will be taken.

When the NIBP continuous interval is chosen, the Accutorr

Plus will take back to back (one right after the other) blood pressure readings. As a safety precaution, a five minute limit is placed on continuous measurements. After 5 minutes, the NIBP interval will automatically switch to measurements taken once every 5 minutes. This is done to reduce the chance of surface vessel rupture (petechia).

If it is desirable to maintain a fixed cuff inflation pressure, the adaptive inflation feature may be disabled when not in Interval mode.

Canceling an Automatic NIBP Measurement

To cancel a scheduled measurement, press the DEFLATE key (36). This will suspend the timed NIBP measurements until the START NIBP key (38) is pressed. The interval indicator will

flash. See section 3.4.4 for more details on the start and deflate function.

NOTE: Pressing the DEFLATE key (36) will also end a measurement cycle that is already in progress.

To take an immediate measurement and to reactivate the Interval mode, press the START

NIBP key (38). The next timed measurement will be taken at the time set by the interval. For example, if the interval was set to 30 minutes, the next timed measurement will be 30 minutes after the START NIBP key was pressed.

Automatic NIBP Measurements (Interval Mode)

NOTE:

If the Interval mode is no longer required, set the interval to

“OFF” prior to pressing the START NIBP key. See section 3.4

for details on changing the interval mode.

If the DEFLATE key (36) is pressed, it will take 10 seconds before another measurement can be taken. The START NIBP

INDICATOR (39) will be illuminated, when ready.

When in the Interval mode and the Room/Bed is changed, the interval mode is suspended (interval indicator flashes) until the NIBP Start key is pressed.

Changing the Interval Setting

If the interval time is changed while the Accutorr Plus is in the interval mode, the new interval time is used once it is entered. For example: The interval time is set to 60 minutes. Thirty minutes have elapsed since the last timed automatic measurement and the interval time is changed to 10 minutes. Once the interval time is entered, the Accutorr Plus will take an automatic NIBP measurement in 10 minutes and then once every 10 minutes.

Effects of Changing the Room Number and/or Bed Letter on the

Interval Setting

When the Room Number and/or Bed Letter is changed, the interval setting will remain the same.

NOTE: The interval setting can be changed if required. Also, if an

NIBP measurement is in progress, the measurement will stop and the cuff will deflate. The timed interval measurements will not activate again (interval indicator flashes) until the START NIBP key (38) is pressed.

START and DEFLATE Functions

The START NIBP and DEFLATE functions have the following effects on the timed measurement sequence.

INTERVAL mode is active and the START NIBP key (38) is pressed causing an unscheduled measurement to be taken. Taking this unscheduled measurement does not affect the timing of the interval cycle, therefore, the scheduled measurements will still be taken as if there were no interruptions. Only one measurement is taken for each measurement cycle - even if the unscheduled measurement coincides with the scheduled measurement.

INTERVAL mode is active and the DEFLATE key (36) is pressed. The INTERVAL INDICATOR

(35) flashes. No additional measurements will be taken until the START NIBP key (38) is pressed. If a timed measurement is in progress, the measurement is suspended and the cuff deflates.

INTERVAL mode is active and the interval time is changed. The measurement cycle is reset with the new interval. A measurement will be taken after the new interval time has elapsed.

The Factory Default for all parameter alarms, except Low SpO

, is OFF. The Low SpO

2 factory default is 86. The User Configuration mode can be used to set custom defaults. See

section 3.15, User Configuration for details. The factory and custom defaults for alarms can

be changed as required to accommodate the needs of individual patients. The SET ALARMS key (29) and the Patient Info. Up and Down Arrow keys (27 & 28) are used to set alarm values.

1. Press the SET ALARMS key (29) (1 beep) to enter into the alarm set mode.

The first time this key is pressed, all NIBP displays blank except for the systolic display which shows the current high systolic alarm value. The word HI is displayed in the

Interval/Elap. Time/Temp display (33). When the unit has been configured to display graphics, the symbol

_ _ _ _

is displayed. When the graphic is displayed, the top lines blink. This indicates the high alarm is selected.

The second time the SET ALARMS key (29) is pressed the Systolic LO parameter is selected. The word LO is displayed in the Interval/Elap. Time/Temp display (33). When the unit has been configured to display graphics, the symbol

_ _ _ _

is displayed.

When the graphic is displayed, the bottom lines blink. This indicates the low alarm is selected.

Each time the SET ALARMS key (29) is pressed a new parameter is selected for alarm setting (all other displays blank). The order they are available is: Systolic HI, Systolic LO,

Diastolic HI, Diastolic LO, MAP HI, MAP LO, Pulse Rate HI, and Pulse Rate LO, SpO

2 and SpO

LO. When all of the available parameters have been selected, the next press of the ALARM SELECT key returns the Accutorr Plus to normal operation.

2. To change an alarm limit setting, use the Patient Info. Up & Down Arrow keys (27 & 28).

The Up arrow increments the alarm limit setting. The Down arrow decrements the alarm limit setting.

To cancel all of the changed alarm values while still in progress of changing, press the

DEFAULTS key (14) (1 beep tone).

If the SET ALARMS or Arrow keys have not been pressed for 15 seconds, the Accutorr

Plus returns to normal operation and saves any alarm limit changes.

NOTE: If the patient size is changed, the alarm settings will change to the default settings for the new patient size.

Alarm Violations

An alarm condition exists if the parameter is equal to or is outside the high/low limit range that has been set. When an alarm limit is violated, the following actions occur:

• The LEDs for the parameter in an alarm condition flashes.

• The parameter in an alarm condition is in reverse video on the LCD (Accutorr Plus models with Trend Screen).

• The alarm tone is sounded (unless muted with the MUTE key (30)).

• The parameter(s) that was in an alarm condition will be in brackets [ ] when printed on the recorder.

How to Mute Alarms

When an NIBP alarm exists, press the MUTE key (30) (1 beep tone) to silence the alarm tone for 2 minutes. The alarm tone will return after the next measurement value that violates the selected limits.

When an SpO

alarm exists, press the MUTE key (30) (1 beep tone) to silence the alarm tone for two minutes. The alarm tone will return after two minutes, unless the SpO

value changes and is within the alarm limits. If during that two minutes the measured SpO

value changes to a value that is within the acceptable range, and then returns to a value that is outside the set alarm limit, the alarm tone will return before the two minutes elapse. Example

(within 2 minutes): • SpO

low alarm limit has been set to 90. • SpO

is measured at 89; the alarm tone sounds and the SpO

display flashes. •The MUTE key is pressed. • SpO

is measured at 88; there is no alarm tone, but the SpO

display flashes. • SpO

is measured at

91; no alarm tone sounds and the display stops flashing. • SpO

is measured at 89; the alarm tone sounds and the SpO

display flashes.

Press and hold the MUTE key (30) (2 beep tones, approx. 3 seconds) to permanently silence the alarm tone. The MUTE LED (31) illuminated. The LEDs for the alarming parameter will continue to flash. To reactivate the alarm tone function, press the MUTE key (30) again.

Alarms and Changing the Room Number and/or Bed Letter

When changing the rooms and beds, the alarm settings will change if the final room/bed displayed is a different patient size than the original room/bed. When a new patient size is detected, the alarm settings change to the defaults for the different patient size. See section

3.15 for information on custom defaults.

To View and Delete Stored Data (Trend Mode)

All five models of the Accutorr Plus are capable of storing up to 100 entries of measurement data. Each time a successful NIBP measurement is made, the data is automatically stored in memory. When a temperature measurement is made between two minutes before and two minutes after an NIBP measurement, it is stored as the same entry with the NIBP measurement. If a temperature measurement is made outside this time, it is stored as a separate entry. When either NIBP or temperature measurements are stored and SpO

2 information is available, then the SpO

data is also stored.

When 80 entries are stored into trend memory, the MEMORY FULL Indicator (20) will flash.

When 100 entries are stored into trend memory, the MEMORY FULL Indicator (20) will illuminate continuously. Once 100 entries are stored, old data can be deleted manually for any patient; or when new data is available, the Accutorr Plus will automatically delete the oldest data for the currently displayed patient.

NOTE: The unit will also automatically delete data that is 24 hours old.

The Accutorr Plus NIBP uses the Systolic, Diastolic, MAP, and Temp displays to view stored data. The Accutorr Plus models with Trend Screen use the LCD to display up to 5 measurements at a time. The stored data that is viewed is for the currently selected patient

(indicated by the room number/bed letter).

CAUTION:

Do not place the sensor on an extremity with an invasive catheter or blood pressure cuff in place.

CAUTION:

A pulse oximeter should not be used as an apnea monitor.

CAUTION:

A pulse oximeter should be considered an early warning device. As a trend towards patient deoxygenation is indicated, blood samples should be analyzed by a laboratory co-oximeter to completely understand the patient’s condition.

CAUTION:

Ensure proper routing of the patient cable to avoid entanglement and/or strangulation.

NOTE: In the event you are unable to obtain a reading, or the reading is inaccurate, check the patients vital signs by alternate means and consider the following:

• If your patient is poorly perfused, try applying the sensor to another site (i.e. a different finger or toe).

• Check that the sensor is properly aligned.

• In electrosurgery, make sure the sensor is not too close to ESU devices or cables.

• Check to make sure the site area is clean / non-greasy. Clean the site and sensor if needed. Nail polish and fungus should be removed.

Datascope Pulse Oximetry Sensors

A. Introduction

A wide range of Datascope sensors are available for connection to the Accutorr Plus model with SpO

. The sensors cover both short-term and long-term monitoring needs on patients ranging from infants to large adults.

The DATASENSOR is intended for short-term adult monitoring.

The FLEXISENSOR

SD, available in five different sizes, provides both short-term and longterm monitoring for large adults, adult ear, adults, pediatrics, and infants. The

FLEXISENSOR

SD is used when the DATASENSOR is not convenient or suitable.

The ear sensor is intended for long-term adult monitoring.

A range of disposable bandages are available for use with the FLEXISENSOR

SDs. They are available in 2 styles, SENSOR GUARD

™

(used for large adults, adults and pediatrics), and Coban with SENSOR GUARD

™

(used for infants).

Use of the sensors does not cause any penetration of the skin, nor is there any electrical contact or transfer of excessive heat to the patient.

0070-10-0428-02 Accutorr Plus

™

Operating Instructions

Operation SpO

Measurements (Accutorr Plus Model with SpO

)

The sensor is composed of a dual light emitting diode (LED) (emitter) and a photo diode

(detector). The emitter discharges two colors (wave lengths) of light into the patient’s extremity

(finger, toe, ear). The wavelengths of the light emitted are nominally 660nm and 890nm with the energy not exceeding 15mW. The detector receives the light not absorbed by the blood or tissue components. The Accutorr Plus model with SpO

then uses the relative absorption of the two light wavelengths to compute and display SpO

(functional saturation) and Pulse

Rate measurements.

The key benefits of the sensors are:

• Electro-Surgical Noise (ESU) Rejection - The sensor configuration of both the

DATASENSOR and the FLEXISENSOR

SD provide uninterrupted monitoring and absence of false alarms during the use of ESU (ESU can be set at any power level). This design prevents electro-surgical noise entering the monitor, via the sensor, and interfering with unit operation.

• Monitoring Restless Patients - Motion artifact rejection is achieved in several ways.

1. The sensor design used with their recommended bandages assures a snug fit of the sensor to the patient.

2. Light emitting diodes (LEDs) and detectors gather a strong signal from the patient. The wavelengths of the light emitted are nominally 660nm and 890nm with the energy not exceeding 15mW.

3. When in the presence of motion, the software adjusts the “averaging-period”, increasing it to a maximum of 15 seconds during motion, and automatically reducing it during quiet periods to obtain a fast response. This combination reduces the number of monitoring interruptions and false alarms from patient motion.

• Tracking of Weak Peripheral Pulse Levels - Many patients suffer poor peripheral perfusion due to hypothermia, hypovolemia, reduced cardiac output, etc. The Accutorr Plus model with SpO

is designed to automatically increase its gain to track patients with poor peripheral perfusion.

• Rejection of Ambient Light - Many monitoring situations involve high levels of ambient light, i.e., operating room lights, neonatal phototherapy, heat warmers, etc. The Accutorr

Plus model with SpO

, the sensors, and the bandages each contribute to the rejection of ambient light. The monitor automatically measures and corrects for high levels of ambient light. The enclosed design of the DATASENSOR prohibits the interference of high levels of ambient light on adults with sensor operation. The opaque material used in the composition of the bandages, which are used with the FLEXISENSOR

SD, helps keep out ambient light.

• Patient Comfort - The FLEXISENSOR

SD line is designed to work with a disposable bandage of two styles (SENSOR GUARD

™

and Coban) which conform comfortably and safely to the particular patient’s anatomy.

B. Sensor Selection and Application

Selection of a specific sensor is based on the patient’s size, physical condition, and expected monitoring duration. General guidelines for the selection of a sensor are provided in the

Datascope SpO

Sensor Selection Table, page 3-22. Instructions for the application of a

sensor to a patient are provided in each sensor package. For optimal DATASENSOR and

FLEXISENSOR

placement ensure that cable side is placed in the correct position (see

FIGURE 3-5 and FIGURE 3-6).

D. Sensor Inspection

Before use, always inspect sensors, cables, and connectors for damage, i.e., cuts and abrasions. Do not use the sensor, cable or connector if damaged. Replace with a good working sensor.

For long sensor life:

• Do not drop on the floor, or give other sharp shocks to the sensor(s). Between use, store the sensors in the accessory pouch, or coil the sensor cable and store on the side of the

Accutorr Plus rolling stand using the optional cable retainer. For accessory part number

information see section 5.0, “Accutorr Plus Versions and Accessories”.

• Avoid running any cart, bed, or any piece of equipment over the sensor cable.

• Avoid strong pulls on the sensor cable (10 lbs/4kg).

• Watch for cracks in the DATASENSOR housing.

• Watch for cracks, cuts, rips, fogging, or signs of moisture in the FLEXISENSOR

Sensor Performance

For the BEST performance:

• DO NOT PLACE any sensor on an extremity with an arterial catheter or blood pressure cuff in place. Placement of an arterial catheter or blood pressure cuff on an extremity may obstruct normal blood flow. False pulse rate information may result if the FLEXISENSOR

SD is placed on that same extremity. Place the sensor on the limb opposite the site of the arterial catheter or blood pressure cuff.

• Encourage the patient to remain still. Patient motion may affect the sensor’s performance.

If it is not possible for the patient to remain still, replace the sensor bandage on the

FLEXISENSOR

SD to assure good adhesion, or change the site of the DATASENSOR.

• Check the DATASENSOR site every 2 hours and check the FLEXISENSOR

SD site every

8 hours for indications of skin abrasions, sensor displacement, sensor damage, or circulation impairment. Check the sensor site every 4 hours if the ear clip is used. If necessary, remove and reapply the sensor. If any of the above mentioned indications occur, immediately remove the sensor and find an alternate site. NOTE: Check the sensor site more frequently on infant and active patients.

• Incorrect placement can also reduce the acquired sensor signal, and therefore compromise performance. Select an alternate site (toe) or use a FLEXISENSOR

SD if the sensor can not be placed on the patient’s finger correctly or if the fingernails interfere with the acquisition of a reliable signal.

• Use of the DATASENSOR is not recommended for long-term monitoring (4-6 hours). For monitoring situations exceeding 4-6 hours, either reposition the DATASENSOR every 2-4 hours to a different site (finger/toe) or use a FLEXISENSOR

SD with its appropriate bandage.

• Do not over-tighten the sensor bandages. Excessive pressure on the monitoring site can affect SpO

readings and may reduce readings below true SpO also result in pressure necrosis and other skin damage.

. Excessive pressure can

• Sensor configuration provides virtually uninterrupted monitoring during following situations:

Electro-cautery Noise - Electro-cautery noise rejection is designed into the sensors.

Motion Artifact - The monitor’s software adjusts the “averaging period” increasing it during motion and reducing it during inactivity. This decreases the number of monitoring interruptions and false alarms.

Weak Peripheral Pulses - The monitor’s gain is automatically increased to track pulses on patients with decreased peripheral perfusion.

Inaccurate reading may be caused by incorrect sensor application or use; significant levels of dysfunctional hemoglobins, (i.e. carbohemoglobins or methemoglobin); or intra-vascular dyes such as indocyanine green methylene blue; exposure to excessive illumination, such as surgical lamps (especially ones with a Xenon light source), bilirubin lamps, fluorescent lights, infrared heating lamps, or direct sunlight; excessive patient movement; venous pulsations; electro-surgical interference; and placement of a sensor on an extremity that has a blood pressure cuff, arterial catheter, or intra-vascular line.

CAUTION:

In certain situations in which perfusion and signal strength are low, such as in patients with thick or pigmented skin, inaccurately low SpO2 readings will result. Verification of oxygenation should be made, especially in preterm infants and patients with chronic lung disease, before instituting any therapy or intervention.

CAUTION:

If the sensor or patient cable is damaged in any way, discontinue use immediately. To prevent damage do not soak or immerse the sensor in any liquid solution. DO NOT

NELLCOR

Sensors

NELLCOR

provides a family of sensors suitable for a wide variety of clinical settings and patients. Specific sensors have been developed for neonates, infants, children, and adults.

OXISENSOR

™

oxygen transducers are sterile adhesive sensors with optical components mounted on adhesive tape. OXIBAND

oxygen transducers and the DURAFORM

™

oxygen transducer system are reusable sensors that are applied with disposable adhesive. The

DURASENSOR

DS-100A adult digit oxygen transducer is a reusable sensor with its optical components mounted in a plastic casing. The NELLCOR

RS-10 reflectance oxygen transducer is an adhesive sensor for application to forehead or temple.

OXIBAND

adhesive wrap or FORM-A adhesive bandage for each patient. Do not resterilize OXISENSOR

™

oxygen transducers.

C. Performance Considerations

To insure optimal performance, use an appropriate sensor, apply it as directed, and observe all warnings and cautions.

If excessive ambient light is present, cover the sensor site with opaque material. Failure to do so may result in inaccurate measurements. Light sources that can affect performance include surgical lights, especially those with a xenon light source, bilirubin lamps, fluorescent lights, infrared heating lamps, and direct sunlight. If poor perfusion affects instrument performance, and the patient weighs more than 50 kg (110 lbs.), consider using the OXISENSOR

™

R-15 adult nasal oxygen transducer. Because the R-15 obtains its measurements from the nasal septal anterior ethmoid artery, an artery supplied by the internal carotid, this sensor may obtain measurements when peripheral perfusion is relatively poor. For low peripheral perfusion, consider using the NELLCOR

RS-10 reflectance oxygen transducer, which is applied to the forehead or temple.

If patient movement presents a problem:

• Verify that the sensor is properly and securely applied.

• Use a new sensor with fresh adhesive backing.

• Move the sensor to a less active site.

• Use a type of sensor that tolerates some patient motion, such as the OXISENSOR

D. Automatic Calibration of NELLCOR

Sensors

The oximetry subsystem incorporates automatic calibration mechanisms. It is automatically calibrated each time it is turned on, at periodic intervals thereafter, and whenever a new sensor is connected. Also, the intensity of the sensor’s LEDs is adjusted automatically to compensate for differences in tissue thickness.

Each sensor is calibrated when manufactured; the effective mean wavelength of the red LED is determined and encoded into a calibration resistor in the sensor plug. The instrument’s software reads this calibration resistor to determine the appropriate calibration coefficients for the measurements obtained by that sensor.

NOTE:

Do not place the sensor on an extremity with an invasive catheter or blood pressure cuff in place.

Ensure proper routing of patient cable to avoid entanglement and/or strangulation.

CAUTION:

When equipped with MASIMO® SpO2, use only MASIMO® oxygen transducers including MASIMO LNOP® patient dedicated adhesive sensors and MASIMO PC Series Patient

Cable. Use of other oxygen transducers may cause improper Oximetry performance.

CAUTION:

Excessive ambient light may cause inaccurate measurements. Cover the sensor with opaque materials.

CAUTION:

Many patients suffer from poor peripheral perfusion due to hypothermia, hypovolemia, severe vasoconstriction, reduced cardiac output, etc. These symptoms may cause a loss in vital sign readings.

CAUTION:

The site should be checked at least every eight (8) hours

(every four (4) hours with the Adult re-usable finger sensor).

Ensure proper adhesion, skin integrity, and proper alignment. Nail polish and fungus may effect readings.

Exercise extreme caution with poorly perfused patients.

Skin erosion and pressure necrosis can be caused when sensors are not frequently monitored. Assess the site every two (2) hours with poorly perfused patients.

CAUTION:

If the sensor or patient cable is damaged in any way, discontinue use immediately. To prevent damage do not soak or immerse the sensor in any liquid solution. Do not attempt to sterilize.

Temperature Measurement (Optional)

NOTE:

For information on the optional AccuTemp IR Thermometer

Module see the Operating Instructions manual that is provided with the thermometer, part number 0070-00-

0346.

For information on the optional Welch Allyn Sure Temp

Thermometer, see the Operating Instructions manual that is provided with the thermometer, Datascope P/N (0992-00-

0198).

The Welch Allyn thermometers do not report the measurements to the Accutorr Plus trend memory.

An optional Datascope Predictive Thermometer Module (PTM) is available to connect to the

Accutorr Plus. The Predictive Thermometer provides temperature measurements in approximately 30 seconds. The Predictive Thermometer module takes oral, rectal or axillary temperatures.

For instructions on how to connect the temperature module see section 3.17.

Patient temperature depends upon the site measured. Predictive Thermometers are typically substituted for mercury thermometers to measure oral, rectal and axillary sites. While correlation among these various sites is generally good, actual temperature differences among sites will vary by patient and physiological activity. Consequently, attempts to estimate the temperature of one site based on the temperature of any other site (e.g., rectal temperature axillary temperature) have met with less than favorable results.

WARNING: It is essential that a single use disposable probe cover is used when taking temperature measurements.

Datascope Predictive Thermometer Measurements

When the predictive thermometer probe is removed from its holder, the Interval/Elap. Time/

Temp display shows 85°F (29.4°C). This is an internal self test feature. Once the probe is in place in the patient and the probe detects a temperature greater then 85°F (29.4°C), the

Time/Temp display will begin flashing. When the temperature measurement is complete, the display will stop flashing and a beep tone is sounded. NOTE: After a measurement allow 60 seconds for the tip to cool before proceeding with the next measurement.

How to Apply Datascope Probe Cover (PTM)

1. To open probe cover box, remove the “tear out” tab on the end of the box top.

2. Place the box of probe covers into the holder of the thermometer module with the opening to the bottom.

3. Remove the probe from its chamber in the thermometer. This turns on the thermometer.

4. Insert the probe into a probe cover in the box, and push firmly on the cap of the probe handle until you feel the probe cover “snap” into place.

CAUTION:

Use only Datascope recommended probe covers. Use of any other probe cover may result in erroneous readings or damage to the probe.

3.11.3 How to take Oral, Rectal, and Axillary Temperatures

1. ORAL TEMPERATURES - Using the BLUE oral probe assembly, place the probe tip firmly in the sublingual pocket next to the frenulum linguae (the vertical fold of tissue in the middle of the tongue) toward the back of the mouth.

NOTE: Accurate temperatures can only be obtained in the “heat pocket” at this location. Temperatures in other locations in the mouth may vary by two degrees F (one degree C) or more. Hold the probe steady in this location. The patient’s mouth must be closed for the measurement. The thermometer reading will begin to flash, then will indicate the rising temperature as the measurement proceeds.

2. The display will stop flashing and a beep tone is generated when the final temperature has been reached. The final reading will be displayed for approximately 1 minute.

3. Remove the probe from the patient’s mouth, and discard the used probe cover by pressing on the button on the probe handle. Discard the used probe cover according to standard hospital procedures.

4. After the Accutorr Plus records the patient’s temperature, replace the probe in the probe chamber (50). Wait at least 60 seconds before taking another temperature to allow probe to cool down.

5. RECTAL TEMPERATURES - Use a RED rectal probe assembly. Install a probe cover as instructed for oral temperatures, and insert the probe into the patient’s rectum. To insure proper tissue contact, angle the probes lightly after insertion. Insertion depth is recommended at 1/2" to 3/4" for adults and 1/4" to 1/2" for children. A lubricant may be used if desired. The measurement will proceed similarly to the oral measurement, and the final reading will be displayed when the display stops flashing.

FIGURE 3-9 Probe Placement for Axillary Temperatures

6. AXILLARY TEMPERATURES - Using the RED rectal probe, install a new probe cover in the normal manner. Have the patient raise his/her arm. Place the probe tip in the axilla, pressing gently to assure good contact. Have the patient lower his/her arm, holding the probe in position almost parallel to the arm. The measurement will proceed similarly to the oral measurement, and the final reading will be displayed when the display stops flashing.

FIGURE 3-10 Probe Placement for Axillary Temperatures

NOTE:

It is important that the tip of the probe does not come into contact with a heat source(i.e., hands or finger) prior to taking a temperature. If this should happen, allow at least 5 seconds for the tip to cool before proceeding with the reading.

The thermometer will turn itself off about 3 minutes after turning it on, or when the probe is returned to the probe chamber (50). Always store the probe in the chamber, or disconnect it completely to obtain maximum battery life.

The thermometer will not take a reading if the patient temperature is less than 6°F (3.3°C) above the ambient temperature.

3.11.4 Storing Temperature Measurements

Predictive temperature measurements are automatically stored in the trend memory.

AccuTemp IR temperature measurements are stored in the trend memory only if the AccuTemp

I.R. thermometer is returned to the Accutorr Plus within 60 seconds of the reading. Welch

Allyn Sure Temp Thermometer measurements are not stored in the trend memory.

When a temperature measurement is completed within 2 minutes before or after an NIBP measurement, it is stored as occurring at the same time as the NIBP measurement. If more than one temperature measure is taken during this ±2 minutes, then only the last temperature measurement is stored.

When a temperature measurement is taken outside of this ±2 minutes, then it is stored as an individual item. Also, when temperature measurements are taken within two minutes of each other, the newer measurement replaces the older measurement. When more than 2 minutes passes between temperature measurements, then each measurement will be stored.

Battery Operation Operation

3.14 Battery Operation

When the Accutorr Plus is powered from the battery, the Battery Indicator (17) is illuminated continuously.

To conserve power, most displays will blank (time out) at user selected times. The LCD illumination time out can be set between 3 and 15 minutes. The LED displays time out can be set between 5 and 60 minutes. Since the Accutorr Plus can be powered from either an AC or

DC source, the user configuration allows the setting of separate times for each type of power

source. See User Configuration, section 3.15 for more information on setting the time out

minutes.

When the battery charge is low, but not below the cutoff voltage, the battery LED will flash and the recorder will not operate. When the LED begins to flash or Sealed lead acid units, approximately 30 minutes of battery time remain for the Accutorr Plus NIBP, 20 minutes for the Accutorr Plus NIBP with Trend Screen and 10 minutes for the Accutorr Plus NIBP with

Trend Screen and SpO

. Units with Lithium ion batteries will provide approximately 10 minutes of low battery warning time.

When the battery charge drops below the cutoff voltage the Accutorr Plus will automatically turn off. Patient information will be retained for later use.

Battery run time for the Accutorr Plus NIBP is approximately 5 hours with a Sealed lead acid battery or 8 hours with a Lithium ion battery using a new fully charged battery at 25

C with a NIBP measurement taken every 5 minutes and the recorder not in use. Battery run time for the Accutorr Plus NIBP with Trend Screen is approximately 3 hours for a Sealed lead acid battery or 8 hours for a Lithium ion battery using a new fully charged battery at 25

C with a

NIBP measurement taken every 5 minutes and the recorder not in use. Battery run time for the

Accutorr Plus NIBP with Trend Screen and Datascope SpO

is approximately 1.5 hours for a

Sealed lead acid battery or 3.5 hours for a Lithium ion battery using a new fully charged battery at 25

C with a NIBP measurement taken every 5 minutes continuous SpO

2 measurement and the recorder not in use. Battery run time for the Accutorr Plus NIBP with

Trend Screen and Masimo or Nellcor SpO

is approximately 2 hours for a Sealed lead acid battery or 4.5 hours for a Lithium ion battery using a new fully charged battery at 25

C with a NIBP measurement taken every 5 minutes continuous SpO

measurement and the recorder not in use.

The Accutorr Plus automatically recharges the battery, when required, when the unit is plugged into an AC receptacle. Maximum battery recharge time is 8 hours for Sealed lead acid or 2 hours for Lithium ion.

CAUTION:

To avoid loss of patient data (trend), do not replace the battery unless the Accutorr Plus is connected to an AC receptacle. Hospital defaults and the time are unaffected by battery replacement.

4.2.1

Introduction

This section of the manual outlines routine maintenance that should be performed by the user.

The Accutorr Plus is designed for stable operation over long periods of time and under normal circumstances should not require technical maintenance beyond that described in this section. However, it is recommended that routine maintenance calibration and safety checks be performed at least once a year, or more often as required by local statutory or hospital administration practice.

Care and Cleaning Of Monitor

The monitor enclosure may be cleaned with a mild soap and water solution or ammoniated window cleaner. Apply cleaning solution to the cloth, not directly onto the monitor. DO NOT apply large amounts of liquid. DO NOT use abrasive cleaning agents or organic solvents.

Remove dust and dirt particles with a soft sponge moistened with cleaner solution; or a fine, soft-hair brush. To prevent scratches DO NOT use abrasive cleaning materials. Fingerprints and stains may be removed by using a liquid lens cleaner and a soft cloth. DO NOT wipe a dry screen or use alcohol or chlorinated hydrocarbon solvents.

Decontamination of the Accutorr Plus

WARNING: Perform this process with the unit powered down and power cord removed.

Decontamination of a unit that has come in contact with a biological material can be performed using LpH SE Germicidal detergent. Apply a small amount of detergent to a disposable wipe (paper based) and wipe down the outside of the unit. Discard the wipe appropriately. After waiting 10 minutes, use a clean dry wipe to dry the unit.

CAUTION:

Do not get the detergent into any vent openings.

Sterilization and Cleaning of Reusable Cuffs

User Maintenance

Cleaning Cuffs with Bladders

Remove the latex bag from the cuff. The cuff and latex inflation bags may be cleaned with an alcohol wipe, a disinfectant wipe, or by sponging with a damp cloth. Both may be sterilized with commercially available disinfectant soaks.

CAUTION:

Some disinfectants may cause skin irritation. Please rinse cuff thoroughly with water to remove any residual disinfectants.

CAUTION:

Using dark colored soaks may stain the cuffs. Test a single cuff to ensure that no damage will occur.

Hand washing will enhance the service life of the cuff. Remove the latex bag and hand wash the cuff in warm, soapy water; then rinse thoroughly. Allow the cuff to air dry, then insert the latex inflation bag.

CAUTION:

When ironing or pressing the cuffs, be aware that the

Velcro® fasteners can melt at temperatures above 325°F

(162°C).

CAUTION:

Cuffs with bladders contain natural rubber latex which may cause allergic reactions.

Cleaning Bladderless Cuffs

Clean cuffs with warm water and a mild detergent. Do not use a detergent containing hand conditioners, softeners, or fragrances.

NIBP cuffs can be sterilized with gamma sterilization without effecting the repeated performance of the cuff. Steam sterilization is not recommended. Use of a washing liquid containing bleach is not recommended because chlorine will chemically break down the urethane on the inside of the cuff.

Antimicrobial Definition

Datascope bladderless cuffs are treated with an antimicrobial coating. Antimicrobial technology effectively controls a broad spectrum of bacteria, fungi, algae and yeasts on a wide variety of treated substrates.

Battery Maintenance

The Accutorr Plus is available with either a sealed lead acid or lithium ion battery. These battery types may be subject to local regulations regarding disposal. At the end of the battery life, dispose of the battery in accordance with any local regulations.

CAUTION:

Li-Ion batteries are intended for replacement by qualified service personnel only.

CAUTION:

Batteries used in this device may present a risk of fire or chemical burn if mistreated. Do not disassemble, heat above

100°C (212°F), or incinerate. Replace Sealed lead acid battery with Datascope P/N: 0146-00-0043 only. Replace

Lithium Ion battery with Datascope P/N: 0146-00-0069 only. Use of another battery may present a risk of fire or explosion.

CAUTION: Dispose of used battery promptly. Keep away from children.

Do not disassemble and do not dispose of in fire.

Due to the self-discharge characteristics of a Sealed Lead

Sealed Lead Acid and Lithium Ion batteries have no

“memory” characteristics, therefore, deep cycling is not recommended.

CAUTION:

Recharge the Sealed Lead Acid battery with the Datascope

Charger P/N 0014-00-0032-02 or while the battery is inside the unit.

CAUTION:

Recharge the Lithium ion battery while in the unit at room temperature. If the Accutorr Plus is being used in a hot environment, the Lithium Ion battery may not charge when the unit is connected to AC. This safety feature is important because charging a hot battery shortens the battery’s life span.

CAUTION: Remove the battery if the Accutorr Plus is not likely to be used for an extended period of time.

The batteries used in the optional thermometer modules are

9 volt alkaline type. (NOTE: These batteries are not rechargeable.) Replace when error code 8832 appears in the Temp/Elap. Time/Interval display on the front panel display.

CAUTION:

To minimize the chance of thermometer damage from battery leakage, remove the 9 volt battery if the thermometer is not intended to be used for an extended period of time.

Datascope Thermal Paper Durability

NOTE: If the paper jams as it is coming out from under the recorder door, remove the paper cutter to allow for better access to the paper jam. The paper cutter can be sharp and must be carefully taken out.

Datascope Thermal Paper Durability

Our thermal paper will perform for at least two years from the date of manufacture. In actual experience our papers are very stable and should last for many more years under normal storage conditions.

We do not recommend that our paper be exposed for a long period of time to certain vinyls, plastics, adhesives, wet-toner copies, or certain carbon papers.

In storage, under normal office filing conditions (70°F, 45% relative humidity), our thermal paper can be expected to maintain acceptable legibility for many years — the exact period is dependent upon actual conditions. Under adverse storage conditions such as high temperatures and/or humidity, papers are less stable.

Our thermal papers use a dye and co-reactant to form an image. The dye is slightly sensitive to UV light and will exhibit some fading over an extended exposure to normal office light or shorter exposure to intense UV light. The degree of fading depends upon:

A. The degree to which the image was developed originally.

B. The intensity of the UV light.

C. The percentage of UV in a light source.

D. The dyes in a particular paper.

While black image papers are inherently more stable, none of the papers are fade proof.

Some image intensity/color change will occur under prolonged and severe exposure to UV light.

Therefore:

• Store paper in a cool, dry place

• Do not subject finished records to exposure to sunlight or storage over 120°F

• Finished records may fade if exposed to adhesive (Scotch Magic tape) or clear plastic page protectors

*Neonatal accuracy specifications are based upon testing the N-3000 and N-25 neonatal sensors on healthy adult volunteers in induced hypoxia studies, in the range of 70 - 100%

Sp02. The specified accuracy also takes into account published literature which predicts that there may be small difference in % Sp0

reported by the Oximetry when measurements from adult and fetal blood 100% fetal hemoglobin are compared. Fetal hemoglobin is present in concentrations varying from 10% to 90% in neonatal blood, and this percentage declines over time. As the percentage of fetal hemoglobin in neonatal blood declines, the theoretical effect on accuracy due to this source is reduced.

Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.

Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the Accutorr Plus is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the Accutorr Plus should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the Accutorr Plus.

Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.

Indirect Blood Pressure Measurements and Associated Errors

Indirect Blood Pressure Measurements and

Associated Errors

Place the patient in a supine position to obtain true physiological pressure. If the cuff is not at the patient’s heart level, the pressure values obtained will not reflect the true physiological pressure. Instead, the readings will be decreased by 1.86 mmHg for every inch the cuff is placed above the heart level and increased by 1.86 mmHg for every inch the cuff is placed below the heart level. This effect is due to hydrostatic pressure.

Blood has weight and it is this weight that influences these blood pressure readings. The value of the weight of blood depends on where the measurement is taken with respect to the heart. When the patient is supine, on a flat surface, the arm is near enough to the heart level so no adjustment of the NIBP readings will be necessary.

Precautions With Using Automatically Cycled Blood

Pressure Cuffs

Reports have been made of nerve injury occurring during use of automatically cycled blood pressure cuffs. The authors recommend the following practices when using automatically cycled blood pressure cuffs:

• Position and support the limb in such a way as to minimize stretching of and weight exertion on affected nerves.

• Avoid cuff placement that applies pressure on the ulnar nerve. Cuff tubing should not exit the cuff over the course of the ulnar nerve at the elbow.

• Select a measurement interval that provides adequate venous drainage during cuff deflation.

• Periodically inspect the limb bearing the cuff in order to detect venostasis.

Cuff Size

Using a narrow cuff gives erroneously high pressure readings. If a standard cuff is applied to an obese patient or a patient with large biceps, the extra tissue and fat will dissipate the applied pressure, requiring an additional pressure increase to collapse the artery. On the other hand, over-wrapping a slender arm gives erroneously low pressure readings. Too much force per unit area is exerted. This requires less pressure to collapse the artery.

Other Factors

An accurate determination of blood pressure by the Accutorr Plus can be difficult if cardiac rhythm is very irregular. Irregular cardiac rhythm changes the stroke volume from beat to beat. This changing stroke volume may increase the time it takes the Accutorr Plus to make a measurement. The Accutorr Plus system will take up to four successive attempts to obtain a measurement. If a measurement cannot be made an error code will be displayed.

User Verification Of The Accutorr Plus NIBP Measurements

6.6 User Verification Of The Accutorr Plus NIBP

Measurements

Regular service to blood pressure equipment will help ensure accurate measurements.

Consult your service manual for appropriate information.

If you question the accuracy of the Accutorr Plus, check it (the Accutorr Plus) with a manometer. See the Calibration Section of the Accutorr Plus Service Manual.

Auscultatory verification can be made at the same time the Accutorr Plus is taking a measurement. Apply a bell stethoscope over the brachial artery. Do not allow the stethoscope to touch either the patient’s clothing or the pressure cuff.
