Why are my oxygen readings unexpectedly high on the Oxford Optronix Measuring Instruments?

  Janet FloresAug 16, 2025
  Unexpectedly high oxygen readings from your Oxford Optronix Measuring Instruments could be due to several reasons: * If used in vivo, ensure a better oxygen seal by using a ‘purse stitch’ around the point of introduction or by positioning the sensor a little further into the tissue. * Once the tissue re-closes around the sensor, the surplus oxygen will be consumed and normal readings will resume thereafter. * If the subject is being artificially respired using pure oxygen, the tissue pO2 can exceed normal levels. * If the compensated temperature is less than the actual temperature at the measurement site then the reported oxygen reading will be greater than the true pO2.

  Ashley EdwardsAug 19, 2025
  Unexpectedly low oxygen readings on your Oxford Optronix Measuring Instruments can occur due to: * A physiological root cause (where used in vivo): Support the sensor cable and sensor tip area as neutrally as possible, so the sensor isn't exerting force on the tissue. You may also need to withdraw the sensor slightly, so that the tip is not at the end of the track created during placement. * Waiting until the tissue has adjusted to the trauma and a steady pO2 reading is obtained. * If the compensated temperature is greater than the actual temperature at the measurement site then the reported oxygen reading will be less than the true pO2.

  Erratic oxygen readings on your Oxford Optronix Measuring Instruments may be due to electro-magnetic interference. To resolve this: * Turn off equipment near the monitor to identify the source of interference. * Relocate the interfering device(s). * Increase the distance between the monitor and any potentially interfering equipment.

- T
  Tiffany TaylorSep 12, 2025
  If your Oxford Optronix Measuring Instruments monitor doesn't power up, check the following: * Ensure the NX-PSU universal AC adapter is receiving power from the wall socket by confirming the LED is lit. * Verify the male connector of the NX-PSU adapter is securely seated in the DC POWER IN inlet at the rear of the monitor. * Ensure the monitor isn’t in ‘surge prevented mode’ by turning off the AC adapter, waiting 2-3 minutes, then turning it back on.
