Chapter 5: Monitoring the Patient NOTE! Only qualified personnel may silence the alarm temporarily, or enable it indefinite. 3. If the alarm limit is still violated after two minutes, the audible alarm tone will sound again. If, within the two minutes of alarm silence, another measured value matches or exceeds its alarm limits, the alarming action will resume, including the audible alarm tone. 4. If it is appropriate for your patient, you can turn off the alarm detection capability for a single parameter so that when the measured value matches or exceeds the alarm limits, the monitor will not issue an alarm. 5.6.2 NIBP Mode Non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP) measurements can be made in automatic, manual, or STAT modes. In the automatic mode, the monitor will measure the patient's NIBP periodically, according to the interval you select. In the manual mode, the monitor will measure the patient's NIBP only when you press the NIBP key. In the STAT mode, the monitor will measure the patient's NIBP continuously for five minutes.
