WARNING NIBP measurements may be inaccurate in the presence of excessive

motion artifact. Minimize extremity and cuff motion during blood pressure readings.

WARNING The position and physiologic condition of the subject can affect a

blood pressure reading.

WARNING If the blood pressure cuff is not at heart level, note the difference in

reading due to the hydrostatic effect. Add the value of .2 kPa (1.80 mmHg) to the

displayed reading for every 2.5 cm (inch) above heart level. Subtract the value of .2

kPa (1.80 mmHg) from the displayed reading for every 2.5 cm (inch) below heart

level.

WARNING Proper blood pressure cuff size and placement is essential to the

accuracy of the blood pressure determination. See Blood pressure cuff selection

for sizing information.
