FLUKE BIOMEDICAL

The BP Pump 2 from Fluke Biomedical, Everett, Wash, provides dynamic blood pressure simulations for testing noninvasive blood pressure monitors, including arm- and wrist-cuff types. The analyzer features a preset mode for the simulation of most patient conditions and the capability to program user-defined simulations. The unit tests for leaks, measures static pressure, generates pressure, and tests overpressure valves. For improved testing versatility, the analyzer’s recently upgraded waveform test suite includes additional physiological selections.

CLINICAL DYNAMICS CORP

Over 2 years of research and development have produced the AccuPulse NIBP simulator from Clinical Dynamics Corp, Wallingford, Conn. The simulator utilizes innovative CalTables, available exclusively on the device, to provide +/- 1 mmHg (typical) simulation accuracy. AccuPulse is less expensive than most NIBP simulators, while maintaining one-key operation for basic NIBP simulation, which adds to its ease of use. The simulator includes user-defined TestPoints, up to 45 programmable test points, with each of the following parameters independently programmable: systolic (20 to 295 mmHg), diastolic (10 to 260 mmHg), pulse rate (15 to 330 bpm), and pulse amplitude (0 to 150%). A high-accuracy pressure transducer is included. The unit is battery portable and self-contained, with built-in adult and neonate mandrels. The large 320 x 240 graphic display is easy to read and allows waveform display.
