  • Page 5: Introductory Information

    Introductory information Your boso ABI-system 100 is an innovation on the market for blood pressure mea- surement. It represents an easy way to determine the ankle-brachial index (ABI) and works according to the oscillometric measurement principle. The pressure variations (oscillations) caused by the pulse waves and transmitted by the cuffs are saved and evaluated by the microprocessors.
  • Page 6 The connection sockets for the mains power supply are located on the rear of the device. Only use the boso mains power supply (order no. 410-7-154) as it provi- des a constant power supply, is perfectly synchronised and correctly polarised.
  • Page 7 Installing the network version Firstly you need to install the Firebird database server locally on the server by clicking the button “Installiere Firebird DB-Server” (this step is not required if a Firebird server is already running on this system). Then install the database file “ABI.fdb” locally on the server in a directory of your choice by clicking the button “Installiere Datenbankdatei”.

  • Page 9 The “Import/export” tab is used to define the transfer files for integration in the Doctors Patient System.The following is applicable: boso import file = export file of the Doctors Patient System boso export file = import file of the Doctors Patient System The buttons next to the input fields for the import and export file allow you to direct- ly access the Windows directory structure.
  • Page 10 Assignment of the cuffs to the extremities.: Check the correct assignment of the cuffs to the extremities by seperate measure- ments of left arm, right arm, left leg and right leg. Using the program: Patient tab: After starting the program you will be taken to the ABI patient management screen.
  • Page 11 Measurement tab: Performed measurements can be viewed in the “Measurements” tab. If several measurements have already been carried out, select the desired ABI measurement in the “Date-time” field. The following parameters will be displayed on the screen from top to bottom (two columns –...
  • Page 12 Click on one of the oscillation profiles to enlarge the view of the selected profile. The “Pulse level over time” tab shows the oscillation curve over the time axis. The “Pulse level over cuff pressure” shows the oscillation curve over the cuff pres- sure.
  • Page 13 1-2 cm above the ankle. The marking on the cuff should be on the arteria tibialis. Make sure that the cuff is tightly affixed to the ankle. The device should only be used with original boso cuffs CA04 or CL04. Type Circumference Order no.
  • Page 14 The ABI-system 100 starts the ABI measurement after a short calibration procedure (approx. 3 seconds). Press the START key on the ABI-system 100. After about 3 seconds all of the number segments will appear briefly in the display in order to permit a full functio- nality check.
  • Page 15 The decreasing cuff pressure will be displayed during the measuring phase. By this time (at the latest) all four limbs have to be kept absolutely still and the patient must not talk. Once the measurement has finished, the integrated valves will open automatically to quickly deflate the cuffs.
  • Page 16 Repeating a measurement In order to repeat a measurement, press the START key on the ABI-system 100 again. The previous measurement will be overwritten. In order to perform a measurement on one limb, press the Start new measurement” button again.
  • Page 17 The times above the measurement value columns indicate the time of measurement (1st and 2nd measurement). Cancelling a measurement A measurement can be cancelled at any time by clicking the “Cancel measurement” button in the software or pressing the STOP key on the device, which in turn auto- matically deflates all of the cuffs.
  • Page 18 Technical data Measurement method: oscillometric Measurement range: 40 – 240 mmHg Cuff pressure: 0 – 300 mmHg Display: LCD Operating conditions: Ambient temperature 10°C to 40°C Rel. humidity 10 to 85% Transport and storage conditions: Ambient temperature -5°C to + 50°C Rel.
  • Page 19 Technical testing procedure A) Function testing Function testing of the device can only be performed on human subjects or using a suitable simulator. B) Leak testing of the pressure circuit and display error testing Note: If the pressure during measuring mode increases to more than 320 mmHg, the quick deflate valve will be activated and the pressure circuit will be opened.
