oxygenated. Dysfunctional hemoglobins (COHb and METHb) are not included in the
measurement of functional saturation.
Functional Saturation =
Pulse Rate is calculated by measuring the time interval between the peaks of the infrared
light waveform. The inverse of this measurement is displayed as pulse rate.
The Model 511 must be used in conjunction with OxySnap SuperBright™ saturation
sensors.
Indications and Usage
The Model 511 Pulse Oximeter is intended to be used for monitoring of oxygen saturation
and pulse rate. The Model 511 is designed to monitor all patient areas including adult,
pediatric and neonatal.
