NIBP
Welch Allyn 64 Propaq Encore Reference Guide
LOW BATTERY, NIBP DISABLED (ERR# 11). The battery lacks sufficient voltage to be
able to operate the NIBP channel. Connect the Encore to the ac power adapter.
SERVICE REQUIRED, NIBP DISABLED (ERR# 12). Have the monitor serviced.
CUFF TOO LARGE FOR PATIENT MODE (ERR# 13) . The monitor detects a cuff too
large for the current patient mode. First, verify the patient mode. If the patient mode is
correct, make sure the cuff fits snugly. If this alert occurs in Neonatal Mode, change the
patient mode to Pediatric Mode and check alarm limits. If the alert occurs in Pediatric
Mode, change to Adult Mode and check the alarm limits. Note that different pressures
and retries are used for each mode as stated in “NIBP Specifications” on page 142.
KINKED OR NEONATE HOSE (ERR# 14) . This message occurs when the neonate hose
is detected in adult patient mode. Change the hose or the patient mode selection.
ARTIFACT PRESENT, MINIMIZE ARTIFACT (ERR# 15). The monitor has detected too
much artifact to allow accurate readings. Take steps to reduce artifact. Position the
patient’s limb away from the body so the applied cuff is not in contact with the patient’s
body or any other object such as a bed rail. If the Smartcuf motion artifact filter is on,
make sure that the ECG leads are properly connected to perform ECG monitoring during
NIBP. If the Smartcuf motion artifact filter is off, consider turning it on (and connect ECG
if not already connected).
The following messages can appear in the NIBP status window.
CALIBRATING. The NIBP channel is running an internal calibration.
DISABLED, LOW BATT. See LOW BATTERY, NIBP DISABLED above.
NIBP DISABLED, SERVICE REQUIRED. See SERVICE REQUIRED, NIBP DISABLED above.
RETRY . Since the Propaq Encore did not receive a valid NIBP reading, it will
automatically attempt to take another reading.
