Q:
How much is the pressure usually inflated in the
arterial line pressure bag?
Answer: 300
mmHg
In arterial
line monitoring, keeping pressure bag inflated to 300 mm Hg, keeps line patent
and infuses saline 3-5ml /hr, which prevents dampening of traces and prevents
clot formations. Deflation of bag will result in retrograde blood flow.
