What to do if Perfusion LED is blinking red and SpO2 displays show dashes on Nonin?
If the perfusion LED is blinking red and the SpO2 displays show dashes on your Nonin device, it indicates: * Inadequate perfusion signal: Reposition the sensor or select an alternate sensor site. * Excessive motion: Eliminate or reduce the cause of motion artifact, or reposition the sensor to a site where motion is not present.
What to do if the displayed pulse rate on Nonin Medical Equipment doesn't correlate with the ECG monitor?
If the displayed pulse rate does not correlate to the pulse rate displayed on the ECG monitor, it could be due to excessive motion at the sensor site (eliminate or reduce the cause of the motion or reposition the sensor), the patient may have an arrhythmia (assess the patient), a non-compatible sensor is being used (replace the sensor with a Nonin- branded PureLight sensor), or the ECG monitor may not be functioning properly (assess the patient).
What does it mean if the Pulse Quality LED is blinking amber with each pulse on my Nonin Medical Equipment?
If the Pulse Quality LED is blinking amber with each pulse, it indicates that the quality of the pulse signal at the sensor site is inadequate. Assess the patient and try repositioning the sensor or selecting an alternate sensor site.
What to do if the Pulse Quality display is blinking red and the SpO and/or Pulse Rate displays are dashes on Nonin Medical Equipment?
If the Pulse Quality display is blinking red and the SpO and/or Pulse Rate displays are dashes, it means there is an inadequate signal at the sensor site (assess the patient and reposition the sensor or select an alternate sensor site), inadequate pulse signal due to excessive motion (reduce patient motion and reposition or relocate the sensor), or sensor failure (replace the sensor).
Why is the Pulse Quality LED not blinking green on my Nonin Medical Equipment?
If the Pulse Quality LED is not blinking green, it could be due to an inadequate pulse signal or the sensor is not correctly positioned (reposition the sensor), the sensor is restricting blood circulation at the sensor site (remove the restriction or relocate the sensor), excessive ambient light (reduce ambient light), excessive patient motion (reduce patient motion), the patient is wearing nail polish or artificial nails (remove nail polish or artificial nails), or performance degradation from an arterial catheter, blood pressure cuff, or infusion line (reduce or eliminate the source).
How to fix Nonin Medical Equipment 8500 that will not power up?
If your Nonin 8500 device isn't powering up, the issue might be due to: * Depleted batteries: Replace all six batteries. * Incorrect battery installation: Verify the battery sequence. * Faulty battery door: Replace the battery door if the metal contact is missing.
What does it mean if the Pulse Quality LED is blinking amber with each pulse on Nonin Medical Equipment?
If the Pulse Quality LED is blinking amber with each pulse, this indicates that the quality of the pulse signal at the sensor site is inadequate. Assess the patient. Reposition the sensor or select an alternate sensor site.
How to deal with Degradation of device performance of Nonin 8500 Medical Equipment?
Degradation of device performance can be caused by electromagnetic interference (EMI). Remove the device from the EMI environment.
What to do if numeric displays are blinking at once per second on Nonin 8500?
If the numeric displays are blinking once per second, this may indicate low batteries (replace all 6 batteries) or incorrect battery installation (verify battery orientation).
What to do if numeric display segments are missing on Nonin 8500?
If numeric display segments are missing, it indicates defective LEDs. Discontinue use of the device.
