Pulse Oximeter
USER MANUAL
General Description
Oxygen binds to hemoglobin in red blood cells when moving through the lungs. It is transported throughout the body
as arterial blood. A pulse oximeter uses two frequencies of light (red and infrared) to determine the percentage (%) of
hemoglobin in the blood that is saturated with oxygen. The percentage is called blood oxygen saturation, or SpO
2
. A
pulse oximeter also measures and displays the pulse rate at the same time it measures the SpO
2
level.
Measurement Principle
Principle of the oximeter is as follows: The pulse oximeter works by applying a sensor to a fingertip. The sensor
contains a dual light source and photo detector. The one wavelength of light source is 660nm, which is red light;
the other is 905nm, which is infrared-red light. Skin, bone, tissue and venous vessels normally absorb a constant
amount of light over time. The photo detector in finger sensor collects and converts the light into electronic signal
which is proportional to the light intensity. The arteriolar bed normally pulsates and absorbs variable amounts of
light during systole and diastole, as blood volume increases and decreases. The ratio of light absorbed at systole
and diastole is translated into an oxygen saturation measurement. This measurement is referred to as SpO
2
.

Precautions for Use
1. Before use, carefully read the manual.
2. Operation of the pulse oximeter may be affected by the use of an electrosurgical unit (ESU).
3. The pulse oximeter must be able to measure the pulse properly to obtain an accurate SpO
2
measurement.
Verify that nothing is hindering the pulse measurement before relying on the SpO
2
measurement.
4. Do not use the pulse oximeter in an MRI or CT environment.
5. Do not use the pulse oximeter in situations where alarms are required. The device has no alarms. It is not for
continuous monitoring.
6. Do not use the pulse oximeter in an explosive atmosphere.
7. The pulse oximeter is intended only as an adjunct in patient assessment. It must be used in conjunction with
other methods of assessing clinical signs and symptoms.
8. In order to ensure correct sensor alignment and skin integrity, the maximum application time at a single site
for our device should be less than half an hour.
9. Do not sterilize the device using autoclaving, ethylene oxide sterilizing, or immersing the device in liquid. The
device is not intended for sterilization.
10. Follow local ordinances and recycling instructions regarding disposal or recycling of the device and device
components, including batteries.
11. This equipment complies with IEC 60601-1-2:2014 for electromagnetic compatibility for medical electrical
equipment and/or systems. However, because of the proliferation of radio-frequency transmitting equipment
and other sources of electrical noise in healthcare and other environments, it is possible that high levels of
such interference due to close proximity or strength of a source might disrupt the performance of this device.
12. Portable and mobile RF communications equipment can affect medical electrical equipment. The portable
and mobile RF communications equipment should be used no closer than 30cm (12 inches) to any part of the
device, including cables specified by the manufacturer. Otherwise, degradation of the performance of this
equipment could result.

—
use accessories, detachable parts and materials not described in the instructions for use
—
interconnect this equipment with other equipment not described in the instructions for use
—
disassemble, repair or modify the equipment
16.
The material that contact with the patient’s skin has passed the ISO10993-5 Tests for invitro cytotoxicity and
ISO10993-10 Tests for irritation and delayed-type hypersensitivity.
17. Use of this equipment adjacent to or stacked with other equipment should be avoided because it could result
in improper operation. If such use is necessary, this equipment and the other equipment should be observed
to verify that they are operating normally.
18. The use of accessories, transducers and cables other than those specified or provided by the manufacturer
of this equipment could result in increased electromagnetic emissions or decreased electromagnetic
immunity of this equipment and result in improper operation.
19. When the signal is not stable, the reading may be inaccurate, please do not refer.
20. The material of the device has no nature latex.
21. The pulse oximeter equipment is calibrated to display functional oxygen saturation.
22. The waveform we provide is normalized.
23. Do not modify this equipment without authorization of the manufacturer.
24. The manufacturer will make available on request circuit diagrams, component part lists, descriptions,
calibration instructions, or other information that will assist the user’s appropriately trained personnel to repair
those parts of the equipment designated by the manufacturer to be repairable.
25. Stop using and contact local service center if one of the following cases occurs:
—
Any of the problems in the
Possible Problems and solutions
cannot be solved.
—
The oximeter cannot be powered on in any case and not the reasons of battery.
—
There is a crack on the oximeter or damage on the display resulting readings cannot be identified;
the spring is invalid; or the key is unresponsive or unavailable.
26. Aging infrared-ray detector or insufficient battery level may affect the equipment performance. Please follow
the instructions in the manual to maintain the device.
27. Please contact the manufacturer for any question about the usage or maintenance.
