6.3 Sensor Performance Considerations

Inaccurate measurements can be caused by:

Incorrect application of the sensor.

Placement of the sensor on an extremity with a blood
pressure cuff, arterial catheter, or intravascular line.

Excessive patient activity.

Intravascular dyes, such as indocyanine green or
