■
Motion artifact may lead to inaccurate SpMet and SpCO measurements.
■
Very low arterial Oxygen Saturation (SpO2) levels may cause inaccurate SpCO
and SpMet measurements.
■
Severe anemia may cause erroneous SpO
2
readings.
■
Do not use the Rad-87 or sensors during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan-
ning. Induced current could potentially cause burns. The Rad-87 may affect the
MRI image and the MRI device may affect the accuracy of the Pulse CO-Oximetry
parameters and measurements.
■
If using Rad-87 during full body irradiation, keep the sensor out of the radiation
fi eld. If the sensor is exposed to the radiation, the reading might be inaccurate or
the device might read zero for the duration of the active radiation period.
■
For home use, ensure that the Rad-87’s alarm can be heard from other rooms in
the house especially when noisy appliances such as vacuum cleaners, dishwash-
ers, clothes dryers, televisions, or radios are operating.
■
Always remove the sensor from the patient and completely disconnect the patient
from the Rad-87 before bathing the patient.
■
Additional information specific to Masimo sensors including information about
parameter/measurement performance during motion and low perfusion, may be
found in the sensor's Directions For Use (DFU).
■
Do not place the Rad-87 where the controls can be changed by the patient.
■
Do not place the Rad-87's face against a surface. This will cause the alarm to be muffl ed.
■
Do not place the Rad-87 on electrical equipment that may affect the Pulse
CO-Oximeter, preventing it from working properly.
■
Do not expose the Rad-87 to excessive moisture such as direct exposure to rain.
Excessive moisture can cause the device to perform inaccurately or fail.
■
Do not place containers with liquids on or near the Rad-87. Liquids spilled on the
device may cause it to perform inaccurately or fail.
■
Failure of Operation - If the Rad-87 fails any part of the setup procedures or leak-
age tests, remove the device from operation until qualifi ed service personnel have
corrected the situation.
■
Patient Safety - If a sensor is damaged in any way, discontinue use immediately.
■
Disposal of product - Comply with local laws in the disposal of the device and/or its
accessories.
■
The Rad-87 can be used during defi brillation, but the readings may be inaccurate
for up to 20 seconds.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for medical devices
to the EN 60601-1-2: 2002, Medical Device Directive 93/42/EEC and Class B digital
device, Part 15, FCC Rules/USA. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a typical medical installation. This equipment
generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used
in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to other devices in
the vicinity. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to other devices, which
can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to
correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
