 Module 
*Measurement accuracy verification: The SpO
2
 accuracy has been verified in human experiments 
by comparing with arterial blood sample reference measured with a CO-oximeter. Pulse oximeter 
measurements are statistically distributed and about two-thirds of the measurements are expected 
to come with in the specified accuracy range compared to CO-oximeter measurements. 
Measurement range  0 to 100 % 
Resolution 1 % 
Accuracy  70 % to 100 %: ± 2 % (measured without motion in adult/pediatric 
mode)  
0 % to 69 %: Not specified. 
Data update period  ≤30 s 
*Studies were performed to validate the accuracy of Pulse Oximeter with SpO
2
 sensors by contrast 
with a CO-Oximeter. The statistical analysis of data of this study shows the accuracy (Arms) is 
within the stated accuracy specification. Please see the following table.
