12 Monitoring Invasive Pressure

Adjusting the Calibration Factor

If you are measuring pressures with more than one measuring device, using the Zero SmartKey to initiate the zeroing calls up a list of all active pressures. Select the pressure you want to zero or select All Press to zero all pressures simultaneously.

Troubleshooting the Zero

The status line lists the probable cause of an unsuccessful zero:

Adjusting the Calibration Factor

Each time you use a reusable transducer, compare the calibration factor written on your transducer with the calibration factor shown on the monitor. To ensure accurate measurement, they must be the same.

1In the Setup <Press> menu, select Cal. Factor.

If the value here does not match that on the transducer, select the corresponding value from the list now in accordance with your hospital’s procedure.

2To confirm you want to use the new calibration factor, select the Confirm popup.

Displaying a Mean Pressure Value Only

Use this when you want to see only the mean pressure.

♦In the pressure’s setup menu, select Mean Only. Toggle between On to display mean pressure value only, and Off to display all pressure values (systolic, diastolic and mean).

Changing the Pressure Wave Scale

1Select the label of the pressure wave whose scale you want to set to enter the Setup menu.

2In the Setup <Press> menu, (for example ABP) select Scale.
