introduction
Radical provides the functionality of three pulse oximeters in one:
■
Radical is a fully featured Handheld pulse oximeter
■
Radical is a fully featured standalone pulse oximeter
■
Radical interfaces to the SpO
2
input module of multiparameter patient monitors* to
upgrade conventional pulse oximetry technology to Masimo SET technology.
The Handheld portion of Radical contains the majority
of the pulse oximeter features. All pulse oximetry
measurement information, as well as device status data
is displayed on the Handheld LCD screen. All user input
is handled through the control buttons on the front panel.
The sensor cable connector is located on the Radical
Handheld oximeter.
The Handheld oximeter snaps into the Radical Docking
Station to provide a fully featured standalone pulse
oximeter. The Docking Station connects to AC power for
standalone operation or charging of the Handheld an
optional Docking Station battery is available. The
standalone Radical features nurse call, analog output and
interfaces to serial printers.
Utilizing a SatShare
TM
cable, the standalone
Radical also interfaces with the SpO
2
input of
a validated multiparameter patient monitor*,
instantly upgrading the conventional pulse
oximetry to Masimo SET pulse oximetry. The
SatShare cable attaches to the back of the
Radical Docking Station, and SatShare
cables are available to interface with most
multiparameter patient monitors*.
