Connecting the NIBP Cuff
Connecting the NIBP cuff requires you to attach the inflation hose to the Propaq M unit and the
NIBP cuff. To use the SureBP feature, which enables the Propaq M unit to measure blood
pressure on cuff inflation, you must use the FlexiPort cuff and dual lumen (two-tube) adaptor
and hose. You can also use a single lumen (one-tube) hose and adaptor with the Propaq M unit,
but the unit will only measure blood pressure on cuff deflation.
To connect the NIBP cuff to the Propaq M unit:
1. Attach the inflation hose’s threaded metal connector to the NIBP connector on the side
panel of the Propaq M unit. Mesh the threads carefully so that the connector turns easily and
then turn the connector in a clockwise direction until it is snug. Attach a double lumen hose
as follows:
