•SpO
2
measurement of a patient with insuffi-
cient peripheral circulation can be incorrect.
• All devices are not protected against the effect
of the discharge of a cardiac defibrillator.
• When two sensors are attached beside each
other, the light from each sensor interferes with
the other sensor and SpO
2
cannot be monitored
properly. Make sure that there is no light inter-
ference when attaching more than one sensor.
• Normal external light does not affect measure-
ment, but strong light such as a surgical light or
sunlight can affect measurement. If the measur-
ing site is affected, cover it with a blanket.
• If the sensor is attached to same limb that is
used for NIBP measurement or an IPB catheter,
the blood circulation at the attachment site is
affected and the measurement might not be
correct. Attach the sensor to a limb where the
blood circulation is not affected.
• Do not pull or bend the sensor cable, and do
not let caster feet run over the sensor cable.
Failure to follow these cautions may cause
cable discontinuity, short circuit, skin burn on
the patient and incorrect measurement date.
Replace any broken sensor with a new one.
• Redness or skin irritation may appear on the
attachment site. Take extreme care of patients
with weak skin. In case of redness or skin irrita-
tion, change the attachment site or stop using
the sensor.
