is informational only. It displays the date and
time of the last successful calibration, either 1-point or 2-point.

Calibration
Every time a sensor is connected to the NeoMed pod, you must calibrate the monitor
to the sensor. The monitor does not display FiO
2
values until it is calibrated.
There are two types of calibration. 1-point calibration measures the oxygen in room
air, typically 21 %, and calibrates the monitor to that measurement. A 2-point
calibration uses two measurements, room air and 100 % oxygen, to calibrate the
monitor. A 2-point calibration provides more accurate FiO
2
monitoring because the
monitor is calibrated to two different measurements.
1-point calibration should be performed daily. A 2-point calibration should be
performed weekly. You should also calibrate the monitor under the following
circumstances:
Periodically, to verify the correct functioning of the sensor
Daily, if you are monitoring a patient’s FiO
2
on a daily basis
When you suspect that sensor characteristics have changed
When the accuracy of the monitor is in question
When there is a change in humidity or barometric pressure of the monitoring
site
