Key tips
- ·A no-signal/flatline alarm gets checked on the patient first, not the monitor - rule out a real clinical event before troubleshooting.
- ·Recalibrate NIBP against a reference manometer, not just a self-test pass.
- ·Reused patient cables (SpO2, ECG leads) are a common source of intermittent-fault complaints - swap the cable before the module.
Typical Failure Modes
Compiled for this model from its own documentation and established engineering knowledge for this equipment class - not from a verified service record. Confirm against the manufacturer's service manual.
Loss of augmentation / balloon-pressure fault

Troubleshooting Approach
A starting sequence for this model, compiled from its documentation and engineering knowledge for this equipment class. Follow the manufacturer's service documentation for the actual procedure.
Symptom: Loss of augmentation
- Study the theory of operation in the service manual - most faults are identifiable from the device features.
- Check the balloon-pressure waveform for a leak or kink pattern.
- Inspect all connections from the console to the catheter.
- Confirm helium level and run an autofill.
- If a balloon leak is suspected, follow the protocol to stop pumping and notify the care team immediately.
Symptom: Trigger / timing problem
- Select the lead with the best R wave or use arterial-pressure trigger.
- Re-prep skin and fit fresh ECG electrodes; check the cable.
- Adjust inflation / deflation timing to the arterial waveform.
- Confirm the assist ratio.
- Refer the console if triggering fails with good inputs.
