Intended Use
The WW1030 pulse oximeter is intended to be used for continuous monitoring of a patient’s
functional oxygen saturation (%SpO
2
), pulse rate (
p
), pulse signal strength, and Pulse
amplitude Index (PI) readings. It is equipped with audible and visual alarms. It may be used
by physicians, respiratory therapists, nurses, certified nurse assistants, emergency medical
technicians, sleep technicians, clinicians, and home users. The intended patient population
ranges from neonatal to adult. It can be used on patients with low perfusion or during patient
motion. The WW1030 may be used in the hospital or clinical environment, during emergency land
transport and in the home.
WARnInG! The monitor was not designed or tested to be an apnea monitor.
Monitor Features
Provides fast, reliable SpO •
2
, pulse rate, and pulse signal strength measurements on any
patient, from neonate to adult.
Maintains accurate readings during periods of patient motion and when monitoring •
patients with low perfusion.
Ideally suited for use in hospitals, outpatient clinics, emergency rooms, during emergency •
land transport, in sleep labs, or in-home use.
Portable and lightweight. Weighs only 330 grams (12 ounces) with 4 “AA” batteries. •
On-board sensor storage cradle holds the finger sensor when not in use. •
Power options include four (4) standard “AA” (type IEC LR6) alkaline batteries, a •
rechargeable Lithium Ion battery pack, USB power, or an AC power adapter.
Rechargeable battery life is approximately thirty (30) hours. (new battery) •
An easy to read battery gauge indicates the charge level and provides a low battery alert. •
Large, bright, easy-to-read LED display indicates SpO •
2
and pulse rate measurements.
2 Nine-segment LED bar graphs indicate pulse signal strength and Pulse amplitude Index. •
An audible “beep” sounds with each pulse beat. The volume can be adjusted or turned off. •
The pitch of the pulse “beep” corresponds to SpO
2
value.
The alarm indicator on top of the oximeter lights up to communicate patient alarm •
information.
Optional docking station transforms the device into a table top pulse oximeter, and can •
also be used to recharge the monitor’s lithium Ion battery pack, and a spare battery pack.
Optional printer allows for printing of trend information or real time data logs. •
