7.3 Applying the Oximetry Sensor
Now you will attach the oximetry sensor to your ring finger, as was demonstrated to you
and is illustrated in the figures below.
Please proceed as follows:
1.
Remove the adhesive strip from the unit (see Figure 28).
2.
Position the oximetry sensor on your ring finger with the wire on the
bottom side of the finger (see Figure 29) – the finger should reach the
centerline marker on the pad.
3.
Fold the bottom short flaps around your finger (see Figure 29).
4.
Fold top flap over the finger and fold the short flap around your finger
(see Figure 30).
5.
Complete this procedure by wrapping the long flap around the short
wrapped flaps (see Figure 31).
6.
Ensure that the dotted line of the Flexi wrap pad is properly located,
as indicated by the arrow (see Figure 32), and that the two square
black protrusions are opposite one another.
7.
The oximetry sensor is now attached. When the WatchPAT™ device
is turned on, the sensor will glow red.
