Sonicaid FM800 Encore Series Instructions for Use

Disconnecting the oximetry sensor
To disconnect the oximetry sensor, grip the outer part of the connector and pull to release
the locking catches.
Do not try to disconnect the oximetry module by pulling on
the lead. This will be unsuccessful, and the connector
module may be damaged.
Do not use the maternal oximetry sensors during magnetic
resonance imaging (MRI) scanning. Induced current could
cause burns. The oximeter may affect the MRI image, and
the accuracy of oximetry measurements may be affected.
Do not use any maternal oximetry sensors other than those
approved for use with the FM800E:
BCI Adult Comfort Clip 3444
Nellcor Durasensor DS-100A
Use only Sonicaid connecting cables.
Remove any nail varnish and artificial fingernails before use
as they are likely to affect the readings. Nail varnish
remover contains acetone. Contact with acetone will
damage the maternal oximetry sensor.
Relocate the sensor periodically (at least every 4 hours)
and monitor skin integrity. If the mother experiences
discomfort due to the oximetry sensor, discontinue use
immediately.
A poor MSpO2 signal may prevent the FHR cross-checking
from functioning. If a good MHR indication cannot be obtained
other methods must be used to prevent accidental
interpretation of MHR as FHR.
Inspect MSpO2 sensor for damage before use.
Check MSpO2 signal quality regularly to ensure that no
deterioration has occurred.
Do not use the MSpO2 function on patients undergoing
photodynamic therapy.
Do not use the MSpO2 sensor on the same arm as the NIBP
cuff.
