7.4 Attaching the PAT
®
Probe
Proper probe placement is critical for good performance.
To attach the PAT
®
probe:
1.
Insert your index finger (or other if so instructed) gently into the probe until
it reaches the end (see Figure 33).
2.
Make sure that the paper tab marked TOP is above your nail and the tab
marked BOTTOM is below your finger.
3.
Detach and gradually remove the tab marked TOP slowly and firmly while
pressing the tip of probe against a hard surface (WatchPAT™ case, table,
etc.) until the tab is completely removed from the probe (Figure 34).
4.
Optional – Only if bottom tab is present:
Detach and pull on the tab marked BOTTOM slowly and firmly towards the
back of your hand, while still pressing against a hard surface until the tab is
completely removed (Figure 35). You might feel a slight suction once the
tabs are removed.
The PAT
®
probe is now attached (Figure 36).
Note
The tabs inside the probe should be removed only
AFTER
the finger is
inserted into the probe.
