Page 8: Cautions
If you are unsure how to reach your distributor, please call Nonin for your distributor’s contact information. Always turn off and unplug the monitor prior to cleaning the monitor or changing the Nonin-branded PureLight veterinary sensor, or moisture trap and/or filter. - Page 9 (33 – 43 mmHg or 4.4 – 5.7 kPa) and no airway or circuit air leak has been detected, an internal air leak is possible. Replace the moisture trap and perform the zero point calibration procedure. If the problem persists contact Nonin Technical Service and discontinue use of the LifeSense Vet monitor.
- Page 10 Cautions (Continued) Certain pharmacologic agents used to sedate or anesthetize animals may have cardiovascular effects that can adversely affect the performance of the pulse oximeter by reducing the perfusion to the sensor site. Examples of commonly used agents that may have this type of effect on certain animal species are Detomidine HCl and Xylazine HCl.
