C. Flex Sensors
NOTE:
For optimum light transmission, attach the
sensor on the finger or toe. For best results,
secure the cable independently from the
sensor. Make sure that the tape securing the
cable does not restrict the blood flow.
NOTE:
Ensure sensor placement is positioned such
that no stray light bypasses the tissue or SpO

inaccuracies may result.
1. Adult Flex Sensor
The Adult Flex Sensor is designed for monitoring of adult and
pediatric (greater than 20 kg) patients in which patient
movement may occur and/or long term monitoring is required.
Apply the double stick tape to the side of the sensor which is
applied to the patient's finger.
Position the sensor on the top and bottom of the finger or toe
as shown in Figure X. Place the light emitter portion on the
finger/toe nail side and the detector on the side opposite of the
nail. In all sensor placement applications, align the windows
(detector and emitter portions of the sensor) over the tissue as
illustrated in Figure X. Attach the sensor by wrapping the tape
or wrap over the sensor assembly. Wrap the sensor snug, but
not so tight as to restrict the blood flow.
