Instructions for use
1. Ensure the SpotOn system power supply is
connected to the back of the control unit and
the power supply is plugged into an appropriate
outlet. If desired, ensure the provided monitor
cable is connected to the back of the SpotOn
control unit and to the YSI-400 type input on the
patient monitor.
2. Use an alcohol wipe to clean and disinfect the
patient’s forehead above the orbital ridge. Allow
the patient’s forehead to completely dry.
3. Connect the SpotOn temperature sensor to the
sensor cable connector. Ensure the sensor tab
is properly connected and is fully inserted into
the sensor cable (Figure 7). The display on the
control unit will change to the ready screen (See
“Ready” on page 14) once it confirms the sensor
connection.
4. Remove backing liners on the SpotOn temperature
sensor to expose adhesive (Figure 8).
5. Position the sensor cable away from the patient’s
face and apply the SpotOn temperature sensor
to the patient’s forehead above the orbital ridge
(Figure 9).
