1. Function of the Plastic Connector

Purpose:

• Provides a secure connection between the blood pressure cuff and the monitor/BP module's air tube

• Ensures airtight sealing for proper inflation/deflation cycles

• Some connectors feature fool-proof designs (e.g., color coding, snap-lock mechanisms) to prevent misconnection

Common Types:

1. Standard Single-Tube Connector: For adult/pediatric cuffs

2. Dual-Tube Connector (e.g., for neonatal cuffs):

   • Separate channels for inflation tube and pressure sensor connection
