B30 Patient Monitor
12-4
Connecting the patient
NOTE: Use dry and clean sensors only.
1. Connect the sensor to the blue connector in the module.
2. Clean the application site: Remove nail polish, artificial fingernails, earrings etc., clip long
fingernails.
3. Position the sensor correctly. For proper sensor positioning, see the “Instructions for use”
accompanying each sensor.
4. Attach the sensor to the patient.
5. Attach the sensor cable to the wrist or bed clothes to prevent the cable and sensor from
moving.
The message ‘Pulse Search’ is displayed in the message field. After the pulse search is
completed, the plethysmographic pulse waveform and the SpO
2
reading are displayed on the
screen.
WARNING Allow sensor and cable to dry completely after cleaning. Moisture and dirt
on the connector may affect the measurement accuracy.
WARNING To prevent erroneous readings, do not use physically damaged sensors,
cables or modules. Discard a damaged sensor or cable immediately. Never
repair a damaged sensor or cable; never use a sensor or cable repaired by
others. A damaged sensor or a sensor soaked in liquid may cause burns
during electrosurgery.
WARNING Inaccurate SpO
2
data can result if a sensor is past its useful life. Therefore,
re-evaluate the measurement periodically by performing additional
assessment of the patient and equipment, including consideration of use of
alternate monitoring methods such as direct measurement of arterial
oxyhemoglobin (SaO
2
).
WARNING Conditions that may cause inaccurate readings and impact alarms include
interfering substances, excessive ambient light, electrical interference,
ventricular septal defects (VSD), excessive motion, low perfusion, low signal
strength, incorrect sensor placement, poor sensor fit, and/or movement of
the sensor on the patient.
