Warning
Make sure the blood oxygen probe is out of the light.
Warning
The SpO2 value is always displayed in a fixed place.
Warning
The SpO2 waveform is not proportional to the pulse volume.
Warning
Before monitoring, check whether the sensor cable is normal. When the SpO2
sensor cable is removed from the socket, the screen will display the error message of
"probe falling off" and trigger the sound alarm at the same time
Warning
If the sensor packaging or sensor has signs of damage, do not use this SpO2 sensor,
contact Woodley Equipment Company.
Warning
Continuous and prolonged monitoring may increase the risk of unwanted changes in
skin characteristics, such as hypersensitivity, redness, blistering or compressive
necrosis, especially in small animal tongues or animals with perfusion disorders and
altered or immature skin patterns.
Ensure to check the position of the sensor according to the quality change of the skin
and the correct light path alignment and attachment method. Regularly check the
sensor attachment position and change the attachment position when the skin quality
decreases. Due to the different status of individual animals, more frequent
examinations may be required.

of the monitor.
Warning
If the test position and probe cannot be accurately located, it may lead to inaccurate
reading of blood oxygen saturation.
