Performing Spot Check
To perform Spot Check, the Rad-G must be powered ON with the battery charged and a sensor must be connected to the device (See Directions for
Use for sensor).
1. If the Rad-G is powered OFF, press the power button ON.
Note: If Rad-G is already ON and in
SpO2/Respiration Rate Screening
mode, cycle the the power OFF and ON to change modes.
2. Touch Spot Check Mode.
3. Touch the Spot Check screen.
4. Select the age of the patient.
5. Touch Next.
6. Place the sensor on the patient (See Directions for Use for sensor).
7. Touch Start to begin Spot Check measurement. Rad-G searches for a pulse and changes to a measuring screen. Rad-G will continue to measure
parameters until the sensor is removed.
8. To view results, remove the sensor from the patient. Spot Check will stop and the “sensor off patient” message will be displayed with results.
9. To return to Spot Check screen: Place the sensor on the patient OR touch Done OR press the Home button.
SCREENING EXCEPTIONS

• Respiration rate range must be selected to view the results screen.
• The range is determined by the age of the patient (see SpO/Respiration Rate Screening Criteria).
motion detected
• The “motion detected” message will cycle to “hold still” message.
• The “motion detected” and “hold still” messages will repeat until the patient stops moving.
