Stat intervals

You can configure the monitor to take NIBP measurements continuously.

When you select the Stat option, the monitor takes repeated NIBP measurements for 5

minutes, starting a new cycle each time the cuff deflates below safe venous return

pressure (SVRP) for 2 seconds.

WARNING Patient injury risk. If you use Stat mode repeatedly, periodically
observe the patient's limb to ensure that circulation is not impaired and that
the cuff remains in place. Prolonged impairment of circulation or improper
cuff position can cause bruising.

Current cuff pressures are not dynamically displayed during a Stat reading. The Home

tab displays the NIBP reading from the previous cycle until the current cycle finishes.
