Subject: BP cuff sizes



Hi all,

 

Advice from clever clinicians please:

 

In OBSERVATION.blood_pressure.v1 BP cuff sizes are currently:

.         Neonatal

.         Paediatric

.         Adult

.         Wide adult

.         Thigh

 

I'm wondering if they should be slightly different ie:

.         neonatal, 

.         infant, 

.         child and/or paediatric, 

.         small adult, 

.         adult, and 

.         large adult (or thigh) cuff

 

Can anyone clarify for me?

 

Thanks

 

Heather
