Using the Monitor

examine the cuff site and the limb distal to the cuff

regularly for signs of impeded blood flow.

• Do not apply external pressure against cuff while

monitoring. Doing so may cause inaccurate blood

pressure values.

• Use care when placing cuff on extremity used to

monitor other patient parameters.

• The PRO Monitor is designed for use only with dual-

tube cuffs.

• Use only accessories recommended by GE Medical

Systems Information Technologies. Failure to use

recommended accessories may result in inaccurate

readings. See Appendix D.

• Blood pressure cuffs should be removed from the

patient when the Monitor is powered off. If the

extremity remains cuffed under these conditions or if

the interval between blood pressure determinations is

prolonged, the patient’s limb should be observed

frequently and the cuff placement site should be

rotated as needed.

General Cautions

• Accuracy of BP measurement depends on using a cuff

of the proper size. It is essential to measure the

circumference of the limb and to select the proper size

cuff. The air hoses are color-coded according to size of

the patient. The gray 12- or 24-foot hose (3.66 m or 7.3

m) is required on patients who require cuff sizes from

infant through thigh cuffs. The teal (blue-green) 12-foot

hose (3.66 m) is required for the neonatal cuff sizes #1

through #5.

• If it becomes necessary to move the cuff to another

limb, make sure the appropriate size cuff is used.

• The pulse rate derived from a BP determination may

differ from the heart rate derived from an EKG

waveform because the PRO Monitor measures actual

peripheral pulses, not electrical signals or contractions

from the heart. Differences may occur because

electrical signals at the heart occasionally fail to
