PM100N Home Use Guide
Why You Use the Monitoring System
The Nellcor™ bedside SpO
2
patient monitoring system
is prescribed for home use to allow a patient or
caregiver to monitor the patient’s SpO
2
and pulse rate
and provide information as directed to their clinician.
Your clinician may prescribe this device based upon
your medical care needs.
The monitoring system can be used for patients of
all ages—infants, children, and adults. Your clinician
prescribes the device and the appropriate Nellcor
TM
sensor, based on the size and age of the patient.
