A b o u t t h i s M a n u a l This manual explains how to set up and use the Rad-57c, Rad-57m and Rad-57cm Signal Extraction Pulse CO-Oximeter. These three products will be generally referred to as the Rad- 57.

P r o d u c t D e s c r i p t i o n ® ® The Rad-57 Handheld Pulse CO-Oximeter with Masimo Rainbow Technology is a noninvasive, arterial oxygen saturation and pulse rate monitor. The Rad-57 features a...
o v e r v i e w INDICATIONS FOR USE The Rad-57 and accessories are indicated for the continuous, noninvasive monitoring of functional oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin (SpO ), pulse rate, carboxyhemoglobin saturation (measured by an SpCO/SpMet sensor)* and methemoglobin saturation (measured by a SpCO/SpMet sensor)*.
CO-Oximetry device or through a patient cable. The sensor collects signal data from the patient and sends it to the device. The Rad-57c and Rad-57cm display the calculated data as percentage value for the SpCO, which reflect blood levels of carbon monoxide bound to hemoglobin.
(7 + wavelengths) 2. Detector Once the Rad-57 receives the signal from the sensor, it utilizes Masimo Rainbow SET signal extraction technology to calculate the patient’s functional oxygen saturation, blood levels of carboxyhemoglobin (SpCO*), methemoglobin (SpMet*) and pulse rate. The SpCO and SpMet measurements rely on a multiwavelength calibration equation to quantify the percentage of carbon monoxide and methemoglobin in arterial blood.
(sometimes referred to as noise). Masimo SET pulse oximetry utilizes parallel engines and adaptive digital filtering. Adaptive filters are powerful because they are able to adapt to the varying physiologic signals and/or noise and separate them by looking at the whole signal and breaking it down to its fundamental components.
The Rad-57 is powered by 4 “AA” alkaline batteries, which provides a minimum of 8 hours of battery life. ■ Rad-57 offers full Masimo Rainbow SET Technology in a small, hand held device. ■ Rad-57 supports the full line of Masimo sensors (see Section 8, sensors and patient cables).

s e t u p I n t r o d u c t i o n Before the Rad-57 Pulse CO-Oximeter can be used in a clinical setting, it needs to be inspected, properly setup and the batteries need to be installed. U n p a c k i n g a n d i n s p e c t i o n Remove the device from the shipping carton and examine for signs of shipping damage.
s e t u p M o n i t o r S e t u p INITIAL SETUP 1. Inspect the oximeter case for damage. 2. Install 4 (four) new AA alkaline batteries. 3. Turn the device on, the LEDs will scroll in the display window as the sensor calibrates, verify all indicators illuminate and speaker sounds a brief tone.
o p e r a t i o n I n t r o d u c t i o n To operate the Rad-57 Pulse CO-Oximeter effectively, the operator must: ■ Know how the oximeter derives its readings (see Section 1, Pulse CO-Oximetry) ■...

o p e r a t i o n GENERAL SETUP AND USE (CONTINUED) 11. On the display, for each corresponding parameter and applicable unit, verify the readings for SpO , SpCO, SpMet and pulse rate (See Model Summary for applicable unit).
o p e r a t i o n DEFAULT SETTINGS The Rad-57 is shipped configured with all values set to factory default. Adjustments made by the user will be retained after a power cycle for all values except alarm silence. NOTE: Before use, confirm that the device settings are set appropriately.
AUTOCLAVE OR ETHYLENE OXIDE (UNLESS OTHERWISE INDICATED ON THE SENSOR DIRECTIONS FOR USE). SEE THE CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS IN THE DIRECTIONS FOR USE FOR REUSABLE MASIMO LNOP, LNOPv, LNCS OR RAINBOW SENSORS. DO NOT USE DAMAGED PATIENT CABLES. DO NOT IMMERSE THE PATIENT CABLES IN WATER, SOLVENTS, OR CLEANING SOLUTIONS (THE PATIENT CABLE CONNECTORS ARE NOT WATERPROOF).
It displays an operating range of < .1 percent to > 5 percent on the Rad-57c and Rad-57m and 0.1 percent to 20.0 percent on the Rad-57cm. A percentage greater than 1.00 percent is desired. Extreme changes in the display number are due to changes in physiology and blood flow.
Low Perfusion is indicated when the arterial pulsations are very low (weak perfusion). Low Perfusion is shown when the PI LED indicator bar does not exceed 0.25 on the Rad-57c and Rad-57m. Low Perfusion on the Rad-57cm is shown when the Low PI LED indicator light is illuminated continuously or a PI value of <...
o p e r a t i o n SENSITIVITY Three sensitivity levels enables a clinician to tailor the response of the Rad-57 to the needs of the particular patient situation. They are as follows: ■ Normal Sensitivity – This is the recommended mode for typical monitoring purposes.
o p e r a t i o n LOW BATTERY AUDIBLE ALARM If a low battery condition occurs during patient monitoring, a low priority alarm will sound, and can be silenced for 120 seconds by pressing the Alarm Silence Button. If a low battery condition occurs while not monitoring a patient, pressing the Alarm Silence Button will suspend the the alarm until the power is cycled or patient monitoring begins.
Pulse Rate (in beats per minute) on the lower number. On each model, a 10-LED bar displays the following parameters: ■ Carboxyhemoglobin saturation (%SpCO) and Perfusion Index (PI) on the Rad-57c. ■ Methemoglobin saturation (%SpMet) and Perfusion Index (PI) on the Rad-57m.
