INSTRUCTIONS
a) Verification of components
1. Gather all components required for monitoring. Refer to
Fig. 1
.
A.
Radius PPG adhesive sensor
B.
Radius PPG wireless bluetooth receiver
C.
Radius PPG reusable chip
D.
Radius PPG reusable chip holder for device
b) Sensor site selection
• Radius PPG ADT: Adult Sensor > 30 kg: The preferred site is the middle or ring finger of the non-dominant hand.
• Radius PPG PDT: Pediatric Sensor 10–50 kg: The preferred site is middle or ring finger of the non-dominant hand.
• Radius PPG INF: Infant Sensor 3–10 kg: The preferred site is the great toe. Alternatively, the toe next to the great toe, or the thumb can be used. 10–20 kg: The
preferred site is the middle or ring finger of the non-dominant hand.
• Radius PPG NEO: Neonatal/Adult Sensor < 3 kg: The preferred site is the foot. Alternatively, across the palm and back of the hand can be used. > 40 kg: The
preferred site is the middle or ring finger of the non-dominant hand.
c) Attaching the strap to the patient
1. Open the pouch and remove the single-patient-use sensor.
2. Peel off the plastic tab to activate the battery, and discard the tab. Refer to
Fig. 2
.
3. Thread the attachment strap through the plastic loop hole. Wrap the attachment strap around the wrist or limb of the patient (based on selected sensor site)
and attach using the hook and loop closure. Refer to
Figs. 3a
and
3b
.
4. Remove the backing from the sensor, if present.
d) Attaching the sensor to the patient.
Adt sensor for ADULTS (> 30 kg) and Pdt sensor for PEDIATRICS (10–50 kg)
1. Orient the sensor so that the detector can be placed first. Place the tip of the finger on the dashed line with the fleshy part of the finger covering the finger
outline and detector window. Refer to
Fig. 4a
.
2. Press the adhesive wings, one at a time, onto the finger. Fold the sensor over the finger with the emitter window ( ) positioned over the fingernail. Secure the
wings down, one at a time, around the finger. Complete coverage of the detector window is needed to ensure accurate data. Refer to
Fig. 4b
.
3. When properly applied, the emitter and detector should be vertically aligned (the black lines should align). Reposition if necessary. Refer to
Fig. 4c
.
Inf sensor for INFANTS (3–10 kg)
1. Direct the sensor cable so that it runs along the top of the foot. Position the detector on the fleshy pad of the great toe. Alternatively, the toe next to the great
toe, or the thumb can be used (not shown). Refer to
Fig. 5a
.
2. Wrap the adhesive wrap around the toe so the emitter is positioned on the nail bed of the great toe. Complete coverage of the detector window is needed to
ensure accurate data. Refer to
Fig. 5b
.
3. Ensure that the emitter window ( ) aligns on the top of the toe directly opposite the detector. Verify correct positioning and reposition if necessary. Refer to
Fig. 5c
.
Neo sensor for NEONATES (< 3 kg)
1. For fragile skin, the stickiness of the medical grade adhesive can be diminished or eliminated by daubing the adhesive areas with a cotton ball or gauze. Refer
to
Fig. 6a
.
2. Direct the sensor cable toward the ankle (or wrist). Apply the sensor around the lateral aspect of the foot (or hand), aligned with the fourth toe (or finger).
Complete coverage of the detector window is needed to ensure accurate data. Refer to
Fig. 6b
.
3. Wrap the adhesive/foam wrap around the lateral aspect of the foot (or hand) and ensure that the emitter window ( ) aligns directly opposite of the detector. Be
careful to maintain proper alignment of the detector and emitter windows while attaching adhesive/foam wrap to secure the sensor. Verify correct positioning
and reposition if necessary. Refer to
Fig. 6c
.
Neo sensor for ADULTS (> 40 kg) Inf sensor for INFANTS (10–20 kg)
1. Direct the sensor cable so that it runs along the top of the hand. Position the detector on the fleshy part of the finger. Refer to
Fig. 7a
.
2. Alternatively, the sensor may also be applied to the toe (not shown).
3. Wrap the adhesive wrap around the finger so the emitter window ( ) aligns on the top of the finger directly opposite the detector. Complete coverage of the
detector window is needed to ensure accurate data. Refer to
Fig. 7b
.
4. Check the sensor to verify correct positioning and reposition if necessary. Refer to
Fig. 7c
.
e) Adjusting the sensor cable
1. With the sensor attached on the selected application site, adjust the thin flexible sensor cable. Refer to
Figs. 8a
and
8b
.
f) Reattachment
1. The sensor may be reapplied to the same patient if the emitter and detector windows are clear and the adhesive still adheres to the skin.
g) Applying replacement tape (for Neo sensor only)
1. Remove the existing tape and discard. Refer to
Fig. 9
.
2. Remove the replacement tape from the release liner. Refer to
Fig. 10
.
3. Position the replacement tape over the sensor, aligning the emitter component with the sensor cable. Refer to
Fig. 11
.
h) Disconnecting
1. Push down on the tab to release the reusable chip from the sensor. Refer to
Fig. 12
.
2. After cleaning, store the reusable chip in the chip holder attached to the patient monitor.
3. Discard the adhesive sensor and strap.
