4.6 Pulse Oximeter
About Pulse Oximeter
Warnings and Cautionary Advice
Before using this function, please read the Section 4.1.
The Pulse Oximeter measures the amount of oxygen in the blood,
pulse rate and perfusion index. The SpO2 sensor works by
transmitting red and infrared light through the skin to the small
blood vessels or capillaries, reflecting the amount of oxygen in the
blood and displaying the measurement on the screen. The oxygen
saturation (SpO2) is measured and displayed as a percentage of
full capacity. Pulse rate (PR) and perfusion index (PI) will also be
measured and displayed. The Perfusion Index is a relative
assessment of the pulse strength at the monitoring site.
Measuring
1. Connect the external SpO2 sensor to the Vetcorder Pro
Monitor.
2. Attach the external SpO2 sensor to your Pet.
3. If the device is in Calendar Screen, press the Home button.
4. Tap the <Pulse Oximeter> icon.
5. The display will then show your PLETH waveform, SpO2
and pulse rate.
The device will monitor continuously, however no data will
be saved until you press the button.
6. Press the button to start collecting your SpO2 data. The
countdown bar moves from left to right.
7. When the bar is filled, the device will analyze your data, and
show the measurement result.

About temperature probe
Warnings and Cautionary Advice
The thermometer is only designed for the measuring core
temperature via the esophagus or the rectum. It is
recommended to use the probe in one area on the animal and
mark probe exclusively for use in that area.
Before each use, check that the probe is intact. If it is
damaged, do not use, please contact your distributor or
Sentier.
Holding the device in your hand or carrying it in a pocket
can cause the device to warm up, which may result in
incorrect readings.
Monitor will measure temperature between 50 °F to 122 °F (10 °C
to 50 °C)
Influences on temperature include but not limited to

4.8 Monitor Vitals
About Monitor Vitals
Warnings and Cautionary Advice
Before using this function, please read the Section 4.1.
The Monitor Vitals feature on the Vetcorder allows for continuous
monitoring of ECG, SpO2, Temperature and Heart Rate. An
audible “beep” can be heard whenever a heart rate is detected by
the ECG. Up to 12 hours of battery life means you can monitor
several patients from intake through recovery before recharging.
Continuous monitoring via Bluetooth with our mobile app (called
Monitor Vitals) will allow you to monitor your patient from a
distance while performing other tasks in the clinic. Please
download Monitor Vitals on your Apple App or Google Play store.
To begin Monitoring Vitals,
Connect the external SpO2, ECG, and Internal Temperature
