HemoSphere Advanced Monitor 11 Oximetry Monitoring
NOTE Appearance of catheter shown in figure 11-1 is for example only. Actual appearance
may vary depending on catheter model.
The HemoSphere oximetry cable and any attached compatible catheter is an APPLIED
PART.
CAUTION Make sure that the oximetry cable is securely stabilized to prevent unnecessary
movement of the attached catheter.
WARNING Do not wrap the main body of the oximetry cable in fabric or place directly on the
patient's skin for long periods of time (>10 min). The surface does get warm (up to 45
°C) and needs to dissipate heat to maintain its internal temperature level. A software
fault will trigger if the internal temperature exceeds its limits.
11.2 In Vitro Calibration
In vitro calibration is performed before the catheter is inserted into the patient, using the calibration cup
provided in the catheter packaging.
