WARNING:
Incorrect application or use of an SpO
2 sensor can cause tissue damage. Do
not wrap the sensor too tightly, apply supplemental tape, or leave a sensor
too long on one place. Inspect the sensor site as directed in the Directions for
Use to ensure skin integrity, correct positioning, and adhesion of the sensor.
WARNING:
Do not use any other cables to extend the length of the Covidien-approved
interface cable. Increasing the length will degrade signal quality and may lead
to inaccurate measurements.
