Performance Considerations
• low perfusion
Loss-of-pulse signal can occur for the following reasons:
• the O
• defibrillation
• a blood pressure cuff is inflated on the same
extremity as the one with the O
attached
• there is arterial occlusion proximal to the O
sensor
• poor peripheral perfusion
• loss of pulse/cardiac arrest
To use the O
• Select an appropriate O
• Apply the sensor as directed, and observe all
warnings and cautions presented in the Directions
For Use accompanying the O
• Clean and remove any substances, such as nail
polish, from the application site.
• Periodically check to ensure that the O
sensor remains properly positioned on the patient.
High ambient light sources that can interfere with the
performance of an SpO
• surgical lights (especially those with a xenon light
source)
• bilirubin lamps
• fluorescent lights
• infrared heating lamps
• direct sunlight
