Safety Information
Warning
Warning
Always confirm Information Center observations with clinical observation
of the patient before administering interventions.
Warning
Warning
Using a sensor during MR imaging can cause severe burns. To minimize
this risk, ensure that the cable is positioned so that no inductive loops are
formed. If the sensor does not appear to be operating properly, remove it
immediately from the patient.
Warning
Warning
Prolonged, continuous monitoring can increase the risk of changes in skin
characteristics, such as irritation, reddening, blistering or pressure
necrosis, particularly on patients with impaired perfusion and varying or
immature skin morphology. Specific attention must be given to sensor site
inspection for changes in skin quality, proper optical path alignment and
attachment. Check the application site at regular intervals and change the
site if any compromise in skin quality should occur. More frequent
checking can be required due to an individual patient's condition.
Warning
Warning
Injected dyes such as methylene blue or intravascular dyshemoglobins such
as methemoglobin and carboxyhemoglobin can lead to inaccurate (over-
estimated) measurements.
