• QA-1290 NIBP Analyser unit

METRON's QA-1290 NIBP Analyzer is a precision instrument designed for use by trained service technicians for verifying the performance of all types of adult and neonate oscillometric NIBP monitors. It operates in two stages: first, auto-calibration of both the cuff and tubing to verify the connected NIBP monitor; second, fully calibrated simulations under all conditions.

The QA-1290 provides dynamic performance testing using both real and simulated blood pressure waveforms. Waveform parameters include individual settings for systolic BP, diastolic BP, heart rate, and pulse volume/amplitude. The analyser also simulates calibrated artefact and arrhythmia conditions found in a wide variety of real-life clinical scenarios, including Bradycardia, Tachycardia, Atrial Fibrillation, Premature Atrial Contraction, Premature Ventricular Contraction, 2nd Degree Heart Block, Geriatric Patient, Obese Patient, Weak Pulse, Strenuous Exercise, and Mild Exercise.

Additional capabilities include high/low pressure release verification, automated leak testing, and user-selectable pressure levels for calibrating a variety of pressure monitors. Actual BP waveforms based on clinical data can be loaded via the RS-232 interface using PROSoft software. Internal firmware can be updated and enhanced via RS-232.
