–Meas Time: the time of the most recent NBP measurement, or
–Next Meas: the time until the next measurement in an
automatic series, displayed with a graphic representation of the
remaining time, as shown here.
During measurements the cuff pressure is displayed instead of the units and the repeat time. An early
systolic value gives you a preliminary indication of the systolic blood pressure during measurement.
Starting and Stopping Measurements

CAUTION Use clinical judgement to decide whether to perform repeated series of STAT measurements because of
the risk of purpura, ischemia and neuropathy in the limb with the cuff.
