4 Sensor Operation

The VE-SH7 Veterinary Pulse Oximetry Sensor consists of a
Multisite Pulse Oximetry Sensor (labeled M-YS) and two sensor
clips that are used to apply the sensor to appropriate sensor site.
There are two sizes of veterinary sensor clips: model VEC-S
(small) and model VEC-L (large) which are shown in the
following figure:
Reusable sensors may be used on the same site for a maximum of
four hours, provided the site is inspected routinely to ensure skin
integrity and correct positioning. Because individual skin
condition affects the ability of skin to tolerate sensor placement, it
may be necessary to change the sensor site more frequently with
some patients.
1. Clean the sensor and sensor clip separately before and
after each use (refer to cleaning section).
2. Nip the clamp by pressing with the thumb and forefinger.
3. Slide one of the sensor's alignment buttons along the clip
slot until the sensor pad is fully engaged in the clip.
4. Slide the second sensor button along the other clip slot
