Hardware and Software
DynaPulse 200M hardware was designed as a USB communication device, similar to a USB Mouse, Scanner or Modem for a Personal Computer (PC), IBM or compatible.
The software is a special application program for blood pressure measurement and data management, similar to the relationship of a printer's driver software to the hardware.
DynaPulse software controls the hardware, by initializing and turning on the Dynapulse monitor's CPU (central processing unit), acquiring data from it and performing blood pressure calculation, then displaying and storing the data and calculated information.
All DynaPulse monitors have an adjustable air release valve, a screw or a knob, that allows user to set the appropriate release rate of 30 +/- 5 seconds from start to end of a measurement. Total measurement time of longer than 50-60 seconds may give higher systolic reading and/or "Increase High Range" error message due to the cuff pressure
not being able to drop down below the diastolic point
Cuffs
DynaPulse uses standard clinical grade cuffs recommended by American Heart Association. Three sizes are available: Standard Adult, Large Adult and Child Size (for age 5 and above). It is NOT recommended to use DynaPulse on infants or newborns. Oversized cuff may be purchased from any medical supply houses.
DynaPulse uses single tube cuff identical to a clinical used D-ring cuff. In any application, please make sure the tube is properly placed and is not kinked. Non-D ring type cuffs may also work with a DynaPulse unit. |
