Displayed pressure values not plausible
1
Check pressure transducer positioned to heart level
2
Flush the complete pressure line
3
Perform pressure zeroing
Check pressure transducer positioned to heart level
Flush the complete pressure line
Perform pressure zeroing
Touch the pressure curve
Optimize the pressure curve display by the curve +/- scaling buttons
Remark:
Pulse contour analysis for continuous measurement requires a sufficient quality of the invasive arterial blood pressure signal. Sufficient curve quality is indicated by a white line under the arterial pressure curve.
Check pressurized flush bag and flush the complete pressure line
If the problem persists, increase damping e.g. by adding R.O.S.E. damping device
Perform pressure zeroing
Controlled mechanical ventilation
Tidal volume of ≥ 8 ml/kg predicted body weight
Sinus rhythm, no artefacts on pressure curve
Check for treatment or disease as reason
