Vital Signs Monitor

The Welch Allyn Vital Signs Monitor is not intended to be used on Neonatal patients.* To
ensure pediatric blood pressure accuracy and safety, note that the Welch Allyn Small Child cuffs are
the SMALLEST CUFFS approved for use with young children and infants. The circumference of the
child’s arm must fit within the range markings on the cuff.

* Welch Allyn defines neonates as children 28 days or less of age if born at term (37 weeks gesta-
tion or more); otherwise, up to 44 gestational weeks. This definition comes from the AAMI SP10
1992 standard.

The monitor should not be used on patients who are linked to heart/lung machines.
