If you accidentally put your finger in the WatchPAT ONE Finger Probe when not supposed to, remove your finger and follow the correct setup steps. The probe should be attached to the index finger of your non-dominant hand, or the pinky if your fingers are large. Make sure the probe does not cause discomfort or pain; if it does, loosen the strap. If discomfort continues, contact the help desk.
