OXITEST PLUS 7 OPERATING MANUAL
3. Operation
3.1
General Description
The
Oxitest Plus 7
provides a quick and efficient method of testing the overall operation of a pulse
oximeter, its cable and sensor. A test is performed by applying the oximeter sensor to the
Oxitest
Plus 7
probe, after first setting up the test parameters on
Oxitest Plus 7
. The features of
Oxitest
Plus 7
are depicted in
Figure 2
and
Figure 3
, and are referred to throughout the rest of section 3.
The following procedure should be followed for correct operation:
1. Turn the
Oxitest Plus 7
ON
by rotating the test probe 90 degrees from its protective
storage compartment.
2. Following power-up, select an oximeter make (
Pulse Ox
) from the menu. Set the
SpO
2
,
Heart Rate
and
Pulse Amp
to the desired settings using the appropriately labelled push
button keys on the front panel. See sections 3.2 through 3.7 for further details. Default
values for
SpO
2
,
Heart Rate
and
Pulse Amp
on selection of a new oximeter are 97%, 60
BPM and 100% respectively.
3. Turn on the oximeter and examine the sensor to determine which side has the LEDs (this
side will radiate red light). Apply the sensor to the test probe, orienting the sensor
with the
LEDs on the underside of the probe.
4. Wait for the
Oxitest Plus 7
to display "RED+IR OK!" on its LCD.
5. Change
Oxitest Plus 7
SpO
2
and
Heart Rate
and note the oximeter's response. Verify the
oximeter alarms when SpO
2
and/or heart rate exceed corresponding alarm thresholds.
Optionally, decrease the Pulse Amp and note how the oximeter's SpO
2
and heart rate may
be affected by low tissue perfusion.
6. Remove the oximeter sensor from the test probe.
7. Select a new oximeter (if required) and go back to step (3), or turn
Oxitest Plus 7
OFF
by
rotating the test probe back into the storage compartment.
