Overview
FastSat
FastSat enables rapid tracking of arterial oxygen saturation changes. Arterial oxygen saturation data
is averaged using pulse oximeter averaging algorithms to smooth the trend. When the Rad-57 is set
to FastSat “On”, the averaging algorithm evaluates all the saturation values providing an averaged
saturation value that is a better representation of the patient’s current oxygenation status. With FastSat,
the averaging time is dependent on the input signal.
SmartTone
The SmartTone feature uses a proprietary algorithm that will provide pulse tones during excessive
motion and low perfusion conditions. The pulse tone is based on an averaged pulse rate measurement
from the proprietary algorithm and may not identify irregular heart beat patterns when there is
excessive artifact present. The Normal Tone feature uses a proprietary algorithm that will provide
pulse tones during non motion and adequate perfusion conditions. In this mode, the pulse tone may
not sound if excessive artifact is present.
