b) Placement of a sensor on an extremity that currently has
installed a blood pressure cuff, arterial catheter, or
intravascular line;
c) The patient has hypotension, severe vasoconstriction,
severe anemia, or hypothermia;
d) An arterial occlusion proximal to the sensor.
WARNINGS!
Use only SpO
2
sensors provided by manufacturer. Other
SpO
2
sensors may cause improper performance.
Do not use an SpO
2
sensor with exposed optical
components.
Excessive patient movement may cause inaccurate
measurements.
Tissue damage can be caused by incorrect operation or
misusing sensor; for example, by wrapping the sensor too
tight. Inspect the sen
sor site to ensure the skin’s integrity
and the adhesion position of the sensor is correct. More
frequent inspection should be taken if necessary.
Loss of pulse signal can occur in any of the following
situations:
a) The sensor is too tight;
b) There is excessive illumination from light sources
