  ARTERIAL BLOOD PRESSURE MONITOR
Rambler's Top100

Application

The arterial pressure monitor is a semiautomatic electronic device, which is intended for measuring the upper (systolic) and lower (diastolic) blood pressure in the arm artery by the "Korotkoff's tones" method. (in medical practice the "Korotkoff's tones" method is recognized as the principal one for artery pressure monitoring). As there is no need for a phonendoscope, the monitor permits measurements to be taken by an unskilled person without any assistance. A highly sensitive piezoelectric sensor makes it possible to measure blood pressure through a shirt or any other type of light cloth. Signalling of the upper and the lower blood pressure is made by the LED and sound signals. The pressure value is monitored visually on ÌÌÏ-60 manometer scale.

The method used for measuring artherial pressure permits to monitor blood pressure of the patients suffering from arrhythmia.

Arterial pressure measurements

• Before putting on the cuff find the place where upper arm pulsation is maximum. Normally it is located from 3 to 5 cm higher the elbow bend on the side facing the body.
• Put on the cuff so that the sensor is in the place, which you have previously located. The mark on the cuff corresponds to the location of the sensor.
• Sit down at the table. Put your left hand on the table. (It is possible to measure arterial pressure on the right hand but the results may be slightly different). By rhythmical squeezing the pneumatic pump with your right hand create the pressure in the cuff 30 to 40 mm Hg higher than your expected upper pressure. If the level of your upper pressure is not known, it is recommended to pump the cuff until the manometer pointer indicates 200 units. If the indicator keeps producing rhythmic signals, pump the cuff until the signals stop.
• Press smoothly the button of the pump so that the pressure falls with a rate from 3 to 8 mm Hg/s (abrupt fall of the air pressure in the cuff inevitably results in measurement error even when the sensor is in the right position). When the first tone and LED signals appear, the pressure in the cuff indicated by the manometer corresponds to the upper (systolic) pressure and the moment when the last tone and LED signals are produced corresponds to the lower (diastolic) pressure.
• When periodical signals stop disconnect the connecting pipe from the electronic unit so that the cuff air pressure be reduced promptly. Disconnect the plug of the sensor cord. The next measurement can be made after the air deflation from the system is completed and a short rest is taken.
• Unfasten the textile clasp by pulling slightly the cuff edge. Remove the cuff from the arm.

What you need to know to operate the measuring unit by yourself:
How to Check Accuracy of the Pressure Monitor

If for any reason there is a doubt about the accuracy of your blood pressure monitor, you can check it with the aid of phonendoscope.
Prepare the monitor for operation and place phonendoscope on the inner side of the elbow bend. Start measuring in a usual manner. Watch the manometer reading and LED signaling and in the same time listen to “Korotkoff’s tones’’ with the aid of phonendoscope. The beginning of audible signals in phonendoscope and periodical signals of the meter should coincide. If they are shifted in time for one or two beats it can be explained by different sensitivity of the measuring device and your hearing. This method of checking is the most objective one in home conditions.

Trouble Shooting

Trouble
Possible course
Fixing

The device does not operate with new cells being inserted

• Polarity of the cells was not observed.
• No contact between cells and contact springs.
• Contact springs of the cell compartment are loose.
• No contact between the sensor plug and ÄÒÊ-1Ì sensor socket

• Remove the cells and install them with the polarity being observed.
• Turn the cells without removing them from the compartment. Clean the battery and spring contacts.
• Bend the contact springs so that the cells are inserted in the compartment with a little force.
• Remove ÄÒÊ-1Ì sensor plug and insert it again tightly in the socket.

With the blood pressure monitor being ON the battery discharge LED indicator constantly shines
• Cells are flat
• Replace the cells with new ones.

Measurements are not stable or there are no LED and sound signals.

• ÄÒÊ-1Ì sensor is not installed correctly in the compression cuff.
• Location of the compression cuff on the arm is not correct
• The conical air plug is not tight enough in the air socket

• Place ÄÒÊ-1Ì sensor so that the membrane faces the cuff surface applied to the arm
• Make sure that the cuff is placed on the arm correctly.
• Remove the conical air plug, place it again tightly and half- turn it

Pneumatic pump does not create enough pressure in the compression cuff, pressure in the cuff falls rapidly
• Leakage in monitor components.
• Detect the leakage point by successive pinching of rubber pipes. If the leakage is not detected, it means that the cuff is not hermetic and it should be replaced.
